Tyrese met his number one fan in Dubai.
The emotional actor posted a video on his Facebook page of a fan's sports car emblazoned with the phrase "dude, I almost had you", a favourite quote used by the late Paul Walker's character Brian O'Connor in the Fast and The Furious films.
The love also extended to the yellow and black sports car which also had the logo of the Transformers film franchise that Tyrese also starred in.
“I believe my number one fan and number one supporter just showed up,” he said.
“It is emotional when this happens.”
Tyrese will be in music mode tonight with a a special guest appearance at XL Beach Club in Dubai.

Hili 2: Unesco World Heritage site
The site is part of the Hili archaeological park in Al Ain. Excavations there have proved the existence of the earliest known agricultural communities in modern-day UAE. Some date to the Bronze Age but Hili 2 is an Iron Age site. The Iron Age witnessed the development of the falaj, a network of channels that funnelled water from natural springs in the area. Wells allowed settlements to be established, but falaj meant they could grow and thrive. Unesco, the UN's cultural body, awarded Al Ain's sites - including Hili 2 - world heritage status in 2011. Now the most recent dig at the site has revealed even more about the skilled people that lived and worked there.
