A man driving in New York was left surprised when he spotted a familiar face in the car next to him at a red light. After landing in the US, the man decided to drive around the Big Apple when he stopped at a signal. Glancing at the car on his left, he recognized the driver as American actor and comedian Tracy Morgan.
In a clip shared on social media, the man said: "First thing I see in NYC... Tracy Morgan." The video shows a driver sitting in a red Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Roadster with the roof down. While the user was convinced it was Morgan, previous sightings of the star in his Lamborghini suggest it could well have been him.
Morgan's New York Sightings
Morgan, originally from Brooklyn, has been spotted on numerous occasions cruising in his beloved sports car. Reddit posts have captured him driving down iconic streets like Times Square and Manhattan's Washington Heights neighbourhood. In recent months, he was also seen cheering on the Knicks as they clinched their first NBA title in 53 years, beating the San Antonio Spurs in Game 5.
Since the 30 Rock star is living his best life in New York, locals often spot him around the area. One Reddit user wrote: "I live up here too. I've seen him and gotten a wave from him before." Another added: "Tracy has a reputation in NY as a Certified Good Dude."
Recent Career and Personal Updates
Morgan currently stars in the comedy series The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, which first aired on NBC this year. He plays a former professional athlete trying to document his comeback to football. Last year, he starred as Harlem shop owner Frank "Crutch" Crutchfield in a Paramount+ comedy series, a spinoff to The Neighborhood. He is also believed to be performing stand-up comedy tours across the US.
In other updates, Morgan revealed he had fed 19,000 families through his charity work, calling it "one of the greatest joys" in his life. He also opened up about his near-fatal crash in 2024 with Oprah Winfrey, which left him with severe traumatic brain injuries and broken bones.
