The comedy stars Jonah Hill, Lauren London, Eddie Murphy, and Nia Long, and audiences have well-received the star-studded flick. Schultz also makes an appearance in the movie as Hill’s character’s cousin. According to him, post-production added a CGI kiss.

At the conclusion of the film, Hill and London are at the altar seal their romance with a kiss. Schultz was there when the scene was being filmed, and he claims the smooch never happened. He explained things while on the Brilliant Idiots podcast that he co-hosts with Charlamagne Tha God. “There’s a hilarious thing, I don’t even know if I should share this sh*t, but the final scene, they don’t even kiss,” he said.

“It’s CGI. Swear to god,” he added. “I’m there, I’m watching the wedding, and I see them go in for the kiss, and their faces stop like this far. And I’m like, ‘I wonder how they’re going to play that in the movie. Oh, they’re probably just gonna cut right there.’ But the movie, you can see their faces come close, and then you can see their faces morph a little bit into a fake kiss.”

There hasn’t been confirmation from Barris or the actors about the allegations. When the trailer for You People first surfaced, production came under social media fire from people who questioned if Hill and London would ever be together in real life. Fans weren’t sure they would make a convincing couple on screen when many couldn’t see them as a match. Those discussions have reignited since Schultz’s revelation.
