Rosie Perez and Tupac at the Soul Train Music Awards, 1993
Aren’t they adorable? There is a really sweet story behind these photos. Before leaving for the awards, Rosie’s date (another guy in the music industry) stood her up. Tupac and Rosie were friends, and Tupac had called her and she was upset and told him what happened. He told her “Forget that motherfucker, lets go up there, I’ll be your date. He’s gonna be so jealous with me and you.” The two of them had smoked weed on the way there, and Rosie was stoned as well as nervous. Tupac offered her his hand and told her not to worry as they got out of the car, and that’s when the photos were taken. Tupac was so kind and good and such a gentlemen. He and Rosie were just friends, but they looked adorable together. ❤️
