   "This weekend, I took @tiffanyhaddish on a @bumble virtual date. We talked about our goals, we ordered food (for ourselves and for the frontline workers at hospitals in our community,) and we danced. Connection is more important than ever right now.

   "I had been talking to Common, and hanging out. Like, he comes to play spades with me and my friends and stuff," she said. "At this point, our friendship was getting a little more than friendship but not quite because COVID happened and we're like, quarantined."
