Sherri then drops a bomb and reveals that she and Common allegedly almost dated. She said,

“There was a moment when I thought I was going to get with Common. I met Common years ago at Steve Harvey’s gala in New York City. He introduced himself to me and stood by my table all night….We had great conversation. He gave me his phone number and we texted back and forth afterwards.”
