Creed III star Tessa Thomson recently told with Jimmy Fallon about how a breakfast with Michael B Jordan could have changed her food habits

&#8220;I declined&#8230;&#8221; &#8211; Tessa Thompson Reveals A Funny Story About Michael B. Jordan and His Deed to Change Her Exceptional Self

There is always a first time for everything. And it seems like the Creed III
cast understands this well. Out in the cinemas on March 3rd, the newest
installment to the Rocky and Creed franchise will see the now-retired Creed
having a face-off like never before. While Tessa Thompson, Jonathan Majors, and
Michael B. Jordan gave an absolutely brilliant performance on-screen, their
off-screen merriments are no short of entertainment as well.

Ahead of the movie’s grand release, Tessa Thompson had a chat with the
late-night show host Jimmy Fallon, where she talked about how she has never had
an egg in her entire life. “You got to hold on to things that make you
exceptional,” Thompson tells Fallon, evoking a loud guffaw from the audience.
And when the host asked if she ever had the urge to try eggs, she talked about
how almost a week ago, her co-star Jonathan Majors had eight hard-boiled eggs
for breakfast and the Raising Dion star “tried” to get her “to eat
eggs.” However, she didn’t budge. “Last week, I declined the egg.”

Although she did not have an egg, she did try steak for the first time in her
life and the credit goes to none other than Michael B Jordan. “I know I am
losing it,” Thompson admitted on the late-night show. And even though the Creed
III actor could not succeed, do you know who did? The fan-favorite live show
host Jimmy Fallon. He made Thompson have scrambled eggs for the first time in
her life!

But why did she never have eggs until now?


HERE’S WHY TESSA THOMPSON NEVER HAD AN EGG

The actress explained to Fallon that she had a misconception about eggs as a
kid. That the eggs we eat grow into a chicken. And when she finally got to know
the truth, she could not trust them because “they shapeshift.” She then
hilariously added, “it is a suspect as a kid if you think about it.” Thompson
also said she did not eat eggplant because of the misinformation.

However, Jimmy Fallon now made her eat an egg and Jordan made her eat a steak,
and she is perhaps enjoying the change in her eating habits.
