-That is how you do it, my friend.
-Ahh! -I love you! I love you, man.
Every time, I love you.
I want you to come on every single week.
-I love this, man. -Please.
Are you always this energetic?
´Cause I´ve met my match. -Always, always.
Listen, man, if I could take this whole audience
with me every morning --
[ Cheers and applause ] -Right? Yes!
-Listen, I jump out of bed.
It´s crazy. My wife is so sick of it.
She´s so tired. She´s like, "Please."
Because she´s a night lady, you know what I mean?
She´s a musician, so she stays up late and the whole thing.
And I´m up at like 4:30 like, "Hello!"
[ Laughter ]
And I´m the guy who works out --
I have to work out for at least two hours before I go to work
just so I can be normal.
I´ll be like, "Hey, how y´all doing?
Good to see you. All right."
But I´ve already been in the gym, like "Ahh!"
You know? -Really? Heavy lifting.
-I´m that guy. -I´m just -- don´t ever change.
Because I love you, man.
I was reading this article about you,
because I always read up on Terry Crews.
Whenever I see you. You know I love you.
And it was a great article about how you are designing furniture.
-Yes. -And not just like --
Not just like, "Oh, it´s a chair."
You, like, invented a new chair.
You invented a new piece of furniture.
-This is crazy.
-I love inventions and I love it. Explain.
-You got to understand. I´m an artist.
I had an art scholarship before I had a football scholarship.
I love painting, drawing, everything.
And interiors is like my life and the whole deal.
So I got a chance --
this company gave me a chance to do some things.
And I started sketching,
and came up with some stuff and I was like --
-Well, what company is it? -Well, it was Bernhardt.
Bernhardt company, Bernhardt Furniture
gave me a line -- the Terry Crews Collection.
And what was wild is that I thought,
"Man, you know, somebody has come up with this stuff before,
and here´s the sketches."
They were like, "Terry, no one has done this."
I was like, "Wait a minute.
Wait, wait, no, no, you got to be crazy."
-Seriously?
-They said, "No one has done what you´ve done."
I created a -- It´s a thing called a Lilypad,
which is a chair sitting on top of a table.
A chair grows out of a table.
And I was like, "Somebody did this."
They were like, "No one has done this."
-That´s why I was freaking out!
I go, "Dude, this is brilliant."
And it´s beautiful.
And we have two here,
and I want to go finish the interview over there.
-Let´s do it! [ Cheers and applause ]
Let´s do it! Let me take my drink.
-Look at this!
Yo, I love this.
-Look at this.
This is my furniture.
-Come on. This is awesome. [ Cheers and applause ]
-Look at the swivel. -I love it.
-Look at the swivel.
-How come no one thought of this?
-You can set your cup down.
Let me tell you, I based this all on --
My whole line has an Egyptian theme.
Like, what if Egypt was the most popular culture still today?
And so what I did is set things around the Nile.
And what do you have around the Nile?
You have lily pads with, like, the leaves.
And then the lilies growing out of the leaves.
And it represents Egyptian culture.
And there´s this god named Horus,
a sky god named Horus,
who is always pictured on a blue Nile water lily.
So you are basically a god
when you sit in the Terry Crews chair!
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Terry -- Terry Crews,
are you winning awards for this?
´Cause this is honestly -- -It´s amazing.
-I love new inventions. -Let me tell you something.
My sofa -- -I´m so psyched for you, man.
-I did a sofa, too.
And it won Best Sofa in
at NeoCon. [ Cheers and applause ]
It´s blowing me away.
-I´m so -- I hate to say proud of you,
´cause I feel like you´re my son,
but I´m so proud of you.
I really am. -Thanks, Dad.
-I´m like, "Dude, you crushed it."
It´s not like, "Oh yeah, its a celebrity
just doing a new thing."
This is a brand-new invention, man.
-This is a brand -- -You changed the game.
-Never been done. -You changed the game.
-But see, that´s the thing.
Bernhardt gave me the chance,
because what they did was they took someone
who was outside of their world
so they can bring something new into it, you know what I mean?
So I didn´t come with the whole furniture,
"I know what furniture´s all about."
I didn´t know what I was doing. -Yeah, sure.
-I was just being creative, and look what you do.
-You´ve always got to believe, right?
-Isn´t it amazing? -Believe in someone´s ideas.
Someone´s got to believe in someone´s idea
to make it a reality. -Thank you.
-I got to say, as I said,
I read up on everything Terry Crews,
and I have all your photos from red carpets.
[ Cheering ] -Yes!
-Yeah, this is one.
And then this is another one.
A different -- and then this is another one.
[ Laughter ]
Now, what is this and how does this keep happening
in different outfits and different events?
It looks like the same.
It´s not photoshopped.
-No, no. The floor is lava.
The floor is lava. -The floor is lava.
The floor is lava. [ Laughter ]
-I´m going to tell you why. Let me tell you what happened.
I would go on the red carpet and I would stand there,
and they would be like, "Thank you, Terry Crews.
Could you please move out of the way?
There´s someone else coming."
And I was like, "Oh, wow, all right, it´s over."
And I was like, "Wait a minute, damn it.
I´m on this red carpet."
I´m an attention whore. I am.
[ Laughter ] So I said,
"I will not be ignored on the red carpet."
So what I did, I was like,
"Hey, guys, something´s about to happen."
I went to the -- all the photographers
and I was like, "One, two, three, bow!"
And they were like, "Holy cow!"
And every time I did it, it got printed.
So it was genius.
And then it got to the point where
all the photographers were like, "Jump, Terry, jump."
-Jump! Do the jump. Do the jump.
-And I was like, "Well, this is a charity event.
I can´t jump now." Okay!
[ Laughter ] -Do you mind?
Can we double jump right now?
-You ready to do it? [ Cheers and applause ]
-Double jump? -We got to do it.
Are you ready? -Which way are we facing?
-We´re gonna face this way
and we´re gonna do a double jump on the count of three.
-Yep. -Both: One, two, three.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-I love you, buddy.
Terry Crews, everybody!
