The Emmy winner is recalling the time Common feigned disapproval of a memorable 2018 sketch.
One good joke deserves another.
“He didn’t speak to me until we got off the plane,” Brown recalled.

“And then he came up and said, ‘That sketch, bro.
What’s up with that?’
I told him it was all love I know he’s a good dude.”
But Common then informed him that he’d lost speaking engagements and endorsements over the spoof.
He then began to panic.
“I said, ‘Common, are you serious?’
And he said, ‘No, I’m just kidding, dude.'”
Successfully fooled, Brown then “told him it was the worst thing he’d ever done.
I was standing in front of my kids believing I ruined this man’s life.”
(Watch the sketch below.)
“He’s an incredible actor.
Like, you should give him love.
I’m just happy to be in the room.”
