Much like the righteous roles he plays in movies and shows, Denzel Washington likes to practice what he preaches. The actor is one of the most respected celebrities in the industry and rightly so, for his incredible work ethic and admirable versatility.
Despite being kind to everyone and treating people around him with respect, Washington does not hesitate to raise his voice against something he finds unjust or out of bounds. He puts his self-respect first while making sure nothing negative happens around him.
Jay-Z Tried to Calm Denzel Washington Down at a Lakers Game
Denzel Washington seems like a person who will give hard-hitting advice and then proceed to philosophize about life in general. However, he is also the type of person who will never let people get away with bad behavior, as he will take it upon himself to reprimand them or talk some sense into them.
A similar situation occurred last year at the Lakers Game where Washington was seen getting into a heated argument with somebody. Security personnel and the actor’s bodyguards are also seen surrounding him.
Jay-Z quickly arrived on the scene and tried to defuse the situation with some laughter and hugs to Washington. But the latter was having none of it and even pushed Jay-Z aside to continue the argument. The rapper has a net worth of $2.5 billion, as per Forbes, and yet he did not take it to heart and instead continued his efforts to calm Washington down.
In the end, the Training Day actor chose to let the matter go and accepted Jay-Z’s hugs and handshakes. The person he was arguing with was not captured on camera nor was there any audio to know what the actor was yelling about. It did seem heated as Washington was adamant about getting his point across.
Denzel Washington’s 2003 Confrontation with Diddy
The rapper who is currently facing charges of s*xual harassment and trafficking was once on the receiving end of a good bashing by Washington. According to US Weekly, back in 2003, the actor and his wife attended one of Diddy’s infamous parties and it all culminated in Washington storming off the scene in anger after shouting how Diddy does not respect anyone.
These incidents prove how Washington will never let any billionaire, rapper or otherwise, get in the way of his values and ethics. He will always prioritize his beliefs over any superficial party or relationship. The Equalizer actor is known to keep a low profile and not cause any unnecessary controversy.
