    Sherri Shepherd recently had a run-in with an "unnamed celebrity actress" on Broadway

    The 57-year-old star attended the premiere of Denzel Washington's 'Othello' earlier this month - but Sherri was shocked when she was confronted at the event by a well-known actress


    The TV star said on her 'Sherri' chat show: "I get along with everybody, I really do. So I'm standing there, and I was talking to Khadeen and Devale Ellis, and Devale Ellis is on 'Sisters'. So this unnamed celebrity actress, who shall remain nameless ... grabbed my arm, and they forcefully turned me around."

    Sherri recalled being caught off-guard by the actress.

    She said: "I go, 'Hi! What's going on?' Cause I know her. And she says to me, she goes, 'You've been shading me a lot.' That's what she said to me.

    "I said to her, 'No, I haven't.' Because I was really confused. And she goes, 'Yes, you have.' And then she just walked off."

    Sherri subsequently insisted that she doesn't "shade many people".

    She explained: "First of all, I know who I shade because I don't shade many people. It might be one person I shade. And I never have shaded this unnamed celebrity ... So I was mad. I was really mad, and I said, 'You know what? You don't freaking get to do that to me.'"

    Sherri actually went out of her way to speak to the actress later that night.

    The chat-show host said: "I went to the bathroom during intermission and I stood there 15 minutes, waiting for a meeting in the ladies room. I stood there!

    "'You gonna tell me I shaded you? Nu-uh. You don't get to turn me around like we're in a doggone cartoon.'"
