Fellow gospel singers Erica Campbell of Mary Mary, Tasha Cobbs Leonard and Tamela Mann appeared alongside Adams virtually on the show’s first episode and the topic of celebrity crushes came up.

“Y’all know me so well!” she reacted. “Well remember when Busta Rhymes was a gym rat and all that kinda stuff?”

The Grammy-winner, who was label-mates with the Brooklyn rapper, explained an encounter with him during a meeting with a label executive in the late 1990s. She was smitten with him when he walked into a meeting between her and the boss of the record company.

Adams explained that Busta Rhymes’ “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See” was a hit at the time as she mimicked the lyrics.

“I’m like, ‘OK, sir, you need to walk out,'” Adams recalled.

Each episode of OWN‘s “Girlfriends Check In” will feature a different foursome of women celebrity friends. The topics will focus on love, friendship and wellness.

It airs every Saturday at 10 p.m. EST.
