‘Atlanta': Why Being Brian Tyree Henry Is ‘a Lot of Daunting’ Right Now
Just like his rapper persona on FX’s “Atlanta,” star Brian Tyree Henry isn’t quite used to getting stopped on the street by fans.
“It becomes a little daunting — a lot of daunting, actually — because now you can’t really navigate the streets the way you used to,” he told TheWrap in a recent interview. “I find myself having to go left instead of right, but I’m used to going right sometimes.”
Henry said that, yes, people definitely stop him by calling out “Paper Boi!” just like on the show. It’s “difficult,” but “good.”

“The Paper Boi persona, it does happen to me a lot … It’s all good, it just means that people are paying attention,” he said.
