Celebrities, they’re just like us. And just like us, they too experience heartbreak.
Just ask Michael B. Jordan. While making his debut as the host of NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” this week, the “Creed” star took time during his monologue to joke about his “first ever public breakup.”
While the 35-year-old actor never mentioned the ex he was referring to, he dated model Lori Harvey for over a year. The two made their romance on Instagram official in January 2021, after being spotted together in late 2020. In June 2022, Harvey’s father Steve Harvey announced on “The Steve Harvey Morning Show” that the couple had separated.
“Most people say after a breakup, ‘I’m going to get in better shape,’ but I was already in ‘Creed’ shape,” joked the actor, who plays a ripped boxer in the ‘Creed’ movies. had to say, “Okay, I think I’ll learn a new language.” Anyway, Estoy and Raya.”

Jordan may not have to be on the celebrity dating app Raya for long. Later in his monologue, “SNL” cast members Chloe Fineman, Heidi Gardner, Ego Nwodim, and Punkie Johnson all stepped forward to take their shot at People’s Sexiest Man Alive of 2020.
“Hey! I didn’t even know you were here,” said Nwodim, wearing a strapless wedding dress and a short veil. When Jordan pointed out her not-so-subtle wardrobe, she replied, “I was just taking a walk around the studio and I put this on. Oh my god, is this a wedding dress?

Even Johnson, who is a lesbian, wanted a piece of Jordan.
“Aren’t you gay?” Jordan asked the comedian, who replied with a smile, “That’s me, but you’re Michael B. Jordan and I’m Punkie B. Curious. I mean, even vegans have cheat days, right?”
