"My favorite thing ever, which I'm yet to achieve, is I wanna have a kid," Davidson said, adding that it's his "dream" to become a dad. "It's super corny, but it would be so fun to dress up a little dude. I'm so excited for that chapter, so that's kind of what I'm just preparing for now -- trying to be good as a dude and develop and get better so when that happens, it's just easier," he added. (ANI)
