Kumail Nanjiani was tickled to find out he was the topic of some absurd gossip this year. During an episode of comedian Caleb Hearon’s “So True” podcast out Thursday, the “Eternals” star and stand-up comic dished about a ridiculous rumor that he was having an affair with former first lady Michelle Obama. Nanjiani said he hasn't even met the former first lady, seen here during the Martha's Vineyard African American Film Festival on August 9.
