Pre-ESPYs Prep with Cleveland Browns' Josh Cribbs

Hey Young Hollywooders, it is the big day. It is the day of the Espys. We are at the SLS Hotel. We got the exclusive to hang out with Josh Cribbs in his room to help him get ready for the big event. We're going to help him pick out what he's going to wear. Come on in. Here with Josh Cribbs. How's it going? How are you doing? Thank you for letting us in your room.

Yes, indeed, it's a pleasure.

We know you are an amazing football player. We know you're a great actor, the last time we saw you was on the set of Hot in Cleveland. And now fashion expert?

Fashion expert indeed.

Who knew? We didn't know you were so into this. Are you like really into fashion on a scale of one to ten, what would you say?

I'll say about a eight. Uh, I'm a Gemini, so I love to mix and match a lot of my fashions. I also, you know, dress down a lot, but when it's time to dress the part, I have to dress the part. I have to look it.

Espy day. I know you've been here many times before. It always is exciting every year.

It is. It's a, it's a scramble, you know, um, even with your outfits, your shoes, and, you know, getting cars, it's packed downtown, you know, the city becomes alive, you know, a lot more when Espys coming to town.

All right, so let's break it down, fashion-wise here. We got, I see a lot of really nice labels. Definitely. Are you a Gucci fan? I see Christian Louboutin. How do you decide?

You know, when you're getting dressed for a carpet, you got always make sure you're, you're looking as best as you can.

Okay, so tell me, are the guys, are the NFL'ers, are they, are they into fashion or are you just exceptional in that way?

I am exceptional. I don't want to sell myself short at all. But you know, a lot of the guys, they love the fashion, you know, and that's a big part of, you know, being in the NFL, you know, on the field and off the field. You just want to make sure you're on the field is, you know, what you're known for.

Is gold gonna be your thing? Can we hold up this jacket?

I have to hold it up. This might be my winner. You know, I don't think that I can't, can't wear it. I saw this almost two months ago on a runway. I had it in mind for the Espys. And I had it in mind for the Espys.

Talk to me about Vegas, cause I heard you got a lot of your inspiration from Vegas style.

Yes, Vegas is flashy. I, I learned how to step out of the box.

How do you think outside of the box on the field?

Outside the box on the field. I, I wear my like specially made socks on my forearms with my team color. I like to do a little other things. I don't know if I can say it, but uh,

Now my imagination is running wild, Josh. You gotta just, you know.

Not that bad. You know, I just don't, I don't wear a girdle underneath my pants. I just like to, you know, be free out there playing a sport.

Now we know why you have the record for returns for touchdown.

I don't want anything to slow me down.

We're gonna leave you alone, let you decide. I think we know what you might pick. All right.

Sounds good. I have a tough decision ahead of me. We'll see it in a few.

We'll see you on the other end. All right. Okay, so Josh is ready. I haven't seen him yet. I don't know what he's picked, but I'm really, really excited. Josh.

I think this is the one.

I had a feeling you were going to go with that one, and I think you chose very wisely. So how did you decide?

Well, it was the Espys. And uh, this is an opportunity to show your stuff, show what you're all you're made of fashion wise. Like on the football field, we don't want to hold nothing back. So I'm on the red carpet now. Couldn't hold anything back. So we went with the Louboutin shoes. Louboutin shoes. YSL belt, Gucci slacks, Gucci jacket, Gucci shirt, Gucci tie, Tom Ford glasses.

All right, you look awesome. Are you ready to go?

Thank you. I'm ready to go. I'm all set. Let's do it.

Are you excited?

I'm very excited. I can't wait until we get there.

So let's talk about Espys other years. Any crazy red carpet stories, or stories from the parties or the event?

It's a lot of stories that I won't, I won't say. Just cause I don't want to embarrass any guys or anything like that.

I saw something in your Twitter about you, you tweeted a picture from The Notebook. Are you into the chick flicks? Are you

I don't know why, I am. I am. I am. I, um, I love romance movies. I just love the happy ending.

It's tough as you are on the field. So what is your favorite chick flick?

That is, you, you had it right, right on the map. It was The Notebook. I just because that was the only movie that kind of took hold of me. Like I didn't want to shed, I actually shed a tear and I was kind of like, what the heck is happening to me? The hardest I'm supposed to be, you know, for, you know, football and playing sports. You know, it actually was a tear jerker and uh, I seen it again with my aunt and I was just like, oh man, I was just smiling like, oh man, here we go again, man. I'm gonna let you watch it auntie and I'm gonna go ahead upstairs.

So I know you're gonna be hitting the parties after the awards. Definitely. You're gonna be hitting the parties hard. And then at the end of the night, let's say you're starving, okay? You go into Subway. What is your sandwich? What,

I'm on a diet. Okay. I'm on a diet. Okay. So I'm going to get the turkey sandwich. Six inch turkey. Okay. And I try to add a little bit of spice to it. I try to cheat a little bit. So at the end, I always tell them give me a stripe of ranch down the middle. When I don't supposed to have it. But it's, I feel like I'm a heavy eater, but a six inch turkey, love banana peppers, throw that on there. Little spice on there.

Any avocado?

That's pretty good. Little tang, little, little avocado, love it, you know, just something that give the sandwich some flavor, even cucumbers. Love it. Green peppers, all that.

I can see the carpet. This is like behind the scenes. All this is total access. We you have given Young Hollywood complete access. We really want to thank you. Yes. Are you nervous?

I am a little nervous now that the red carpet is here.

But you look perfect.

But, you know, I would like to thank you guys for helping me pick out, you know, a great outfit. And uh, coming in to watch me get dressed. And now we're at the Espys. Can't wait to get out. Um, a little nervous, but thank you for having me.

Thank you very much. Pleasure. Congratulations.

See you on the red carpet. Here with all everything Josh Cribbs from the Cleveland Browns. If you had an opportunity to pick three of the greatest athletes to be in a triathlon, who would it be?

Oh man. I know one would be Muhammad Ali. I know he can get the job done. Deion Sanders. Yeah. My third would have to be uh, Josh Cribbs.
