In a recent conversation, A$AP Rocky appeared to be starstruck by The Equalizer star’s presence.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight at the New York premiere of Highest 2 Lowest, the rapper said, “I was trying not to fan out and embarrass this man the whole time, you know? You’ve got to keep it together—I had to keep it together.”
Further sharing his amazing experience of getting to work with versatile stars, the “Praise the Lord (Da Shine)” singer added, “To be able to share the screen with such powerful heavy hitters as Jeffrey Wright, Denzel Washington, and Spike Lee—it was a privilege and a blessing.”
Additionally, Rocky revealed that his mother had a crush on Washington since the time he wasn’t even born. “Literally, my mother had a crush on Denzel before I existed,” he stated.
A$AP Rocky has long been a fan of Denzel Washington, praising him at every opportunity he gets. In another interview with Variety, he also revealed that no matter the heights of success he reaches, he will still be a fan of some stars he truly admires (one of them being Washington) and get to learn from.
Rocky said, “It was like a f—— dream come true. But trust me, it was difficult to not fan the f— out every millisecond of the f—— duration. It was crazy – it’s f—— Denzel, man. I don’t give a f— how successful (I am): I’m always gonna be a student and a fan of certain people, and I’m always going to give them their flowers.”
Moreover, Rocky shared the Gladiator II star’s movies that he loves. He added, “I’m never going to be too big to be able to say that I had to hold my composure from not fanning out. The first movies I really loved were Juice, Malcolm X, and Michael Jackson: Moonwalker. The first time I saw him, I was watching Malcolm X.”
