But don’t worry — Michael be aight because Michael be in therapy,” the 35-year-old actor and filmmaker joked.“I just directed my very first movie, ‘Creed III.’ Right after that, I went through my very first public breakup. Now, most people after a breakup are like, ‘I’m gonna get in better shape.
“Hey, Michael,” repertory player Chloe Fineman said. “So I know you’re single, but did you know that I’m single?” Before kicking off the rest of the show, Jordan politely rejected the scripted advances of Fineman, Heidi Gardner, Ego Nwodim and Punkie Johnson. When Jordan pointed out that Johnson is gay, the comedian replied, “I am, but you‘re Michael B. Jordan. And I’m Punkie be curious. I mean, even vegans got cheat days, right?”
