The beef between “Eddie” and “Flash”
The actors really did take the group thing very seriously. So seriously, that “Eddie” and “Flash” had a bit of tension between them as they were acting out the scenes where Flash was supposed to be taking Eddie’s spot as the lead singer. On the Mo’Nique reunion show, Robert Townsend shared a conversation between the two.
“The scene where he slams the door and says If you ain’t got it, you ain’t gon get it, cuz you ain’t got it, [Flash said to me] Man, I’m a black belt. He can’t be in my face saying all of this stuff to me. I’ma fight him.”
Thankfully they didn’t have to take it that far.
