2Pac reportedly once tried to hit on Lucy Liu while the two were filming Gridlock’d.
According to co-star Bokeem Woodbine, who was speaking to The Art of Dialogue, Pac tried out some moves on the future Charlie’s Angels actress.
Woodbine said: “I just remember one day on set, ‘Pac coming to the knock on my trailer. And he was like, ‘Yo, man, what are you doing?’ I was like, ‘I’m just chilling.’ He was like, ‘Yeah, man. I just came back from Lucy’s room and I’m trying to spit game.’”
He that Pac told him Liu wanted to teach him martial arts: “He was like, ‘Okay, well, maybe if I feign some interest and act like I’m interested in what she’s trying to talk to me about, it’ll get me closer to sealing the deal.’”
Woodbine added: “So, I’m just cracking up. And I said, ‘How’d it work? Did it work?’ He’s like, ‘No, it didn’t work.’ I said, ‘Ah, don’t worry about it, man. You know, you can’t win them all.’
“Maybe it just went over her head, like, she didn’t know what he [was talking about]. But he was telling me like, ‘Yeah, you know, I’m trying to trying to get to know her and the only thing she wants to talk about is waving these sticks around.’”
Suge Knight previously claimed that 2Pac became infatuated with Aaliyah.
He said to The Art of Dialogue: “[He said], ‘I wanna do an album with Aaliyah.’ Pac was so excited. I ain’t never seen that little muthafucka so happy. He wasn’t thinking about signing nobody else. That’s the person he said out of all the girls and women he’d ever seen, he thought she was the biggest star and had the best voice ever.
“So I figure if things wouldn’t have happened the way they happened, Pac woulda been doing an album with Aaliyah. […] He lost his mind over Aaliyah. He talked about her days and days. I got tired of hearing it.”
The two 90s icons were never able to collaborate before Pac was murdered in Las Vegas in 1996.
