But fans always rooted for Q to return and sweep Moesha off her feet again, this time reformed. Thanks to Netflix, old and new fans alike can enjoy their young love story.

It could be due to past tension allegedly between Starr and Brandy. He famously accused Brandy of performing a sexual act on him, which he later refused to speak about publicly on The Breakfast Club. He claims they never dated, however. In a later interview, Starr clarified his comments, stating: “I never meant to put her on blast and say she gave me head. It was a joke and the media ran with it. That’s what it was.”
