The pair address Long's audition for the film, after which Nia says she was told she 'looked too old next to Drew' (via toofab)

Drew first pointed out how it's wild how the story has resurfaced, with the talk show host describing the revelation as"so bizarre."

"So here's what happened. I go and I audition and first of all, I was so excited to meet you... and it went really well," she began."So, I go and I audition, then you go home and you wait and you hope to get the response which is, 'You're going to get the job.' I didn't get the job. It's okay, it happens."

The"You People" star said that now looking back, she believes there was a bigger reason why she wasn't cast. "I think this is just a result of the fear of really putting a Black woman into a film that never cast anyone Black," she continued."It was a first time for them. There was this initiative to cast more Black women, have more Black women on set, but Hollywood wasn't quite doing it because I remember during that time I actually auditioned for so many roles that weren't written Black to the point where I was exhausted.
