In the past, actress and reality star Garcelle Beauvais has made headlines for recalling the encounters she experienced with other high-profile celebrities, including Bill Cosby.
On June 15, during an interview with Andy Cohen on his Sirius XM podcast “Andy Cohen Live,” Beauvais continued her storytelling by revealing an awkward exchange with Denzel Washington.
Although “The Jamie Foxx Show” star didn’t provide information on the exact date the incident occurred, Beauvais did disclose how the pair were even acquainted.
She shared that her oldest son, Oliver Saunders, went to school with the actor’s children, Malcolm and Olivia Washington, and the friends would sleep over at each other’s homes.
The 55-year-old said, “I have a story where Oliver and his kids, Oliver and Malcolm and Olivia, his [Denzel] twins, went to school together and Oliver would sleep over, and sometimes the kids would sleep at my house.”
Further, into the conversation, Beauvais added that when Washington dropped off her son, she “looked like death warmed over” because she had gone out partying the night before.
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star stated, “And one Sunday morning, I was just like — I had gone to party ’cause Oliver was, you know, with them. And I woke up and I looked like death warmed over. And I was so tired and the doorbell rang to bring Oliver back, and I opened the door and I think it’s security, and it was Denzel. And I was like, ‘No! Not when I look like this!'”
Beauvais explained the reason why she caused a huge commotion over her appearance was because she wanted to look her best because she was going to be around the legendary actor.
She said while laughing, “I would have thrown on a gown, hair, and makeup.”
