Martin Lawrence reunited with his former Martin costars Tisha Campbell, Carl Anthony Payne II, and Tichina Arnold at the 2023 Emmy Awards on Monday night, appearing in a replica of the sitcom’s living room set at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles to present the nominees for Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.
In the segment, Payne was under the impression that Martin would at long last receive the Emmy it deserves. “A matter a fact, I’ve got my speech on deck, too,” he said.
“No, no Carl — we’re not winning an Emmy tonight. Please sit your butt down,” Campbell interjected. Arnold clarified, “We’re presenting an award not being presented with one, knucklehead.”
But, of course, Payne wasn’t wrong — “we should’ve won an Emmy during our run,” Campbell added.
