Michael B. Jordan has come a long way since his high school days, but the actor was recently reminded of his past when he reunited with a fellow student who used to bully him.

pic.twitter.com/kP6crTsKllThe tension between the two stems from Lore'l 2021 comments about the actor on the "Undressing Room." In the two-year-old interview, the host of the "Undressing Room," not Lore'l, called the actor "a nice corny guy." Lore'l, however, continued with the topic and admitted to often "making fun" of Michael in high school."We teased him all the damn time because his name was Michael Jordan. Let's start there, and he was no Michael Jordan," she said, referring to the NBA player.

Jordan came face to face with one of his high school bullies during a recent “Creed III” premiere event. “The Morning Hustle” radio show host Lore’l revealed on a recent episode of her “Undressing Room” podcast that she attended high school with Jordan and was one of many students who teased the then-aspiring actor for his name. “You know what’s so crazy? I went to school with Michael B. Jordan at a point in life,” Lore’l said on the podcast (via NME). “And to be honest with you, we teased him all the damn time because his name was Michael Jordan. Let’s start there, and he was no Michael Jordan.” “He also would come to school with a headshot,” she added. “We lived in Newark, that’s the hood. We would make fun of him like, ‘What you gonna do with your stupid headshot!?’ And now look at him!”
