Paige Hurd Confronts ‘Power’ Co-stars Michael Rainey Jr. And Gianii Paolo
In a recent interview on The Crew Has It podcast, Michael Rainey Jr. and Gianni Paolo sat down with their former co-star Paige Hurd for a candid conversation. While discussing what she has been up to lately, Hurd shared that she is currently busy planning her wedding. Gianni asked if he and Michael were invited to the big day.
Hurd took that moment to confront the pair, responding, “I didn’t know you two would want to come.” She went on to explain that Gianni had removed her from his Close Friends list and that she learned from a fan that Michael had unfollowed her on social media.
She then asked both men, “When was the last time I spoke to you?”
Michael remained mostly quiet, while Gianni pulled out his phone to check their messages. Hurd also pointed out that the trio had plans to link up during Paris Fashion Week but never connected, despite being in the same building multiple times.
