Sterling K. Brown Reveals the Actress That Left Him Totally Starstruck

Sterling K. Brown has worked with and met some pretty big stars over the years, but there’s one person that left him speechless!

On Monday (August 15), the 46-year-old Emmy-winning actor stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

to chat about his new movie Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul. During the interview, Sterling revealed the one actress that left him totally starstruck.

…And that actress is Meryl Streep! “I’ve been in the presence of Streep three times,” Sterling shared.

“You don’t need a first name. You know who I’m talking about…. I was just standing there like, ”It’s Streep, y’all.’”

And she’s just talking, being regular old Streep, and I’m like, ‘No, I can’t, I don’t know,’” Sterling recalled.

“I didn’t — I couldn’t talk. I just lurked. I was weird. I was a creeper.”
