Tyrese was a recent guest on Van Lathan’s podcast, The Red Pill, where he opened up about his public feud with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson last September. The Fast & Furious star admits he hasn’t talked to his co-star since and takes culpability for his role in the rift.
“I found myself being the messenger on behalf of various people associated to the franchise, but stupid me was the only one who went public about those feelings, which is my own fault,” he says around the 23-minute mark. “It’s not professional, it’s not cool.”
He adds, “I have yet to talk to The Rock to this day, and we will have a conversation.”
Tyrese was evidently upset that Johnson was getting his own Fast & Furious spin-off film, which would be released before Fast & Furious 9. He accused Johnson of “breaking up” the Fast & Furious family.
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live last week, Johnson didn’t appear to share the same sentiments about a reconciliation.
According to E! News, when a caller asked if he’d spoken to Tyrese since the feud, he replied, “Great question, and the answer is no, no, we haven’t talked at all. That whole thing with Tyrese, it was pretty disappointing because I’ve been friends with Tyrese for a very long time.
“To me, there’s no need to have a conversation.”
Elsewhere in the discussion with Lathan, Tyrese explains what led to his perceived meltdown on social media and praises Will Smith for being the “most positive beautiful soul ever.”
During his tirade, Tyrese dragged Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett-Smith into the madness by claiming the famous couple had donated $5 million to help with Tyrese’s legal fees. The Smiths denied it. [apple_news_ad type=”any”]
The rock would beat the dog shit out of Tyrese
Lmao this stupid fuck wants nothing but to hug it out with the Rock? Tyrese is a stuuuuuuuupppppiiiddddddd muthafucka
Tyrese drank some courage juice and decided to be the voice of his cast members who allegedly upset about spinoff movie but they all let Tyrese hang himself cause I remember seeing couple of pics with Luda and Rock, Vin and Rock when this story first came out and I remember nobody saying shit about how mad they were at the Rock. Luda was even asked the question and his reply was idk thats an issue btwn Tyrese and Dwayne. Next time Tyrese when you jump out the window make sure those same “disgruntle” ppl jump out with you cause they got you looking stupid . Besides you probably fucked up a bag for yourself. Rock probably would of done you a favor and gave you a part in the spinoff.
Haha, the fool knows he has no other meal ticket. How the fuck did he think he can go feud with the Rock? One’s a movie star, the other is a never-been rapper and never-been actor. He’s a 2nd/3rd rate character in the only franchise he stars in. He should sit down and shut up if he wants those F&F checks.
Dang Tyrese is so emotionally these days. He wasn’t like this when he was killing Decepticons….
These clebs be some real clowns but they get put on pedestals because they get that bag. These people be way more fucked up than the average person
Jody’s a mark…He’s lucky Rocky Myvia didn’t DDT him on his bald nugget.
I listened to the podcast btw. Good interview. Tyrese was pretty upfront and honest about his public breakdown’s in detail. IDK if Hollywood is going to blackball bruh but plenty of cats have done way worse to fuck up their careers and still have traction… we’ll see he bounces back.
Shut up Tyrese., Lil Bitcch.. Go Cry some more
Dwayne gotta have a life to Jody
