R&B legend R Kelly’s unexpected arrival caused quite a ruckus on the carpet, as the female cast members all stopped what they were doing and ran to greet him and pose for pictures. Taye Diggs did not follow suit, leaving the photo shoot to the ladies. Michael Strahan also made an appearance and said, “I loved the first movie and I’m very excited about the sequel.”  Last but certainly not least, Morris Chestnut arrived just in the nick of time to greet fans and sign a magnum bottle of MARTINI Asti,bedazzled in crystals with the movie title.

When asked what he admires about Malcom D. Lee as a film maker, jokester Terrance Howard said with a smirk, “I admire that he’s hired me twice, other than that he sucks! Cause he did like 15 movies, but he hired me twice.” Nia Long commented that it was great to reunite with the cast almost 15 years later. She said “I think it’s wonderful. I’m hoping the sequel lives up to the first one.”
