Garrett Morris Turns Viral Pants Bulge Into Memoir Promotion

The image, shared by Henson on June 16, captured the two backstage following her Broadway debut in 'Joe Turner’s Come and Gone.' Despite the star-studded company—which included Whoopi Goldberg and Angela Bassett—the internet fixated on Morris. Comments ranged from questions about hidden weapons to theories regarding medical equipment, leading Henson to eventually delete the post from her social media carousel.

Morris addressed the digital frenzy in an Instagram video, quipping that he appeared to have a 'baby boa constrictor' in his pants. He pivoted from the anatomical focus by reminding his audience that he is a man of substance, not just a physical curiosity. Capitalizing on the sudden traffic, Morris directed his newfound attention toward his memoir, 'Ain’t That a B-tch,' scheduled for release in 2027. He punctuated the marketing pitch with a call to civic action, urging his followers to vote and reflecting on his experiences during the civil rights movement.
