Please don’t tell me that I have to convince you to care about this. This is a great gossip story, with all kinds of gossip backstory.

“Hey darlin’, how you doing?” cracks me up. I will take this over a lip sync battle any day.     Comedians have a certain way of walking. Here I am with my good friend, Steve Harvey. You can only get this walk from 30 years of being on stage. #innohurry #CCCSeason6coming @Iamsteveharvey Full Story
