"Honestly, I don't even watch TV," he laughs. "I don't know how bad that is for me to say that, but I don't really watch TV like that. I am watching BMF though. I'm watching BMF."

When asked what he thought of the 50 Cent and Randy Huggins co-created STARZ show, the actor says: "I love it. I love it right now. So far, it's freaking crazy. And I'm actually happy 'cause I think we might have found a new character to hate, Lamar.
