Baltimore native Kevin Liles marched with fellow protestors, including Carmelo Anthony, through the streets of the city today in response to the death of Freddie Gray in police custody. During the march, CNN reporter Brian Todd approached Liles for an interview, but before they could get any further, the reporter refused to believe that Liles wasn't actually Russell Simmons. There's another video below where Todd absolutely won't let it go that he thought he was talking to Russell Simmons instead of Kevin Liles. Absolutely ridiculous.
