*Jasmine Guy has revealed that she secretly housed Tupac Shakur after he was shot in New York in 1994.

Guy appeared on the Jan. 25 episode of “SHERRI” and told host Sherri Shepherd she supported Tupac after he was shot in the lobby of Quad Recording Studios in New York’s Times Square.

The Messenger reports that Tupac received surgery at Metropolitan Hospital Center and checked out to go to Guy’s home because “he didn’t feel safe there,” according to the actress.

“He didn’t feel safe there. He did just get shot,” Guy told Shepherd. “He felt like a sitting duck. And because I had a low profile and they didn’t know we were friends… It kinda felt like The Diary of Anne Frank because I couldn’t tell anybody that he was there.”

Guy said Shakur was cared for by his mother, Afeni Shakur, and a private doctor at her home for several weeks following the shooting.

The Emmy-winner later appeared in Pac’s music video for “Temptations” in 1995, and she wrote Afeni’s 2004 biography, Afeni Shakur: Evolution of a Revolutionary.”

In related news, earlier this month, a Las Vegas judge set bail at $750,000 for Tupac murder suspect Duane “Keefe D” Davis, who was arrested in September in connection with the 1996 murder of the rapper.

We reported previously via CNN that Davis has been housed at Clark County Detention Center since his arrest after his wife’s Henderson home was searched in July as part of the ongoing investigation into the shooting.

Shakur was shot and killed while leaving a boxing match on the Las Vegas Strip. His untimely death – the rapper was just 25 – has been the subject of conspiracy theories and a decades-long investigation.

The former Compton Crips gang leader will be released on strict house arrest if he makes bail.

Tupac’s stepbrother, Mopreme Shakur, previously said news of Davis’ arrest is “bittersweet.”
