The rapper previously recounted how Mirren “knows she’s sexy” during a 2018 appearance onConan.
“She just looked at me and there was this interesting thing going on in her eyes,” he recalled of meeting Mirren at the time to host Conan O’Brien. “It’s a different thing, like old Hollywood is rich, but it’s another thing. It’s this confidence thing from being tested and proven.”
