Offset said that Jamie Lee Curtis was totally on board to help promote his new music video — that is, after he followed her back on Instagram.

The rapper appeared on “Good Morning America” Monday to speak about his career and family, including his new collaboration with wife Cardi B, titled “Jealousy.” The music video stars both artists, and also features cameos from their children.

Jamie Lee Curtis appeared in a promotional video for the track, spoofing James Brown’s bizarre 1988 CNN interview. In the video, Curtis parodies CNN host Sonya Friedman, while Offset plays a parody of Brown.

The rapper told “Good Morning America” that he asked Curtis to collab by sending her a message, some time after Curtis won the best actress in a supporting role award at the 2023 Oscars.

“Jamie Lee Curtis is a real one,” he said in an interview. “So how that happened is, I DM’d Jamie Curtis —”

“On Instagram,” interviewer Kelly Carter said.

“On Instagram,” he continued, “and said, ‘Yo, I got an idea, I would love to work with you.’ So, she wrote me back so quick and she like, ‘Yeah, I got you, but you need to follow me.'”

Offset says that’s how he “knew she was cool.” They then exchanged phone numbers, and he pitched her on the idea for the video.

The rapper also said he has “great energy” with his wife Cardi B, who he’s been married to since 2017, when it comes to working together.

“We don’t really put a lot of records out because we’re very hard on each other about directing,” he said.
