Former Notre Dame football standout Manti Te'o is forever etched in pop culture lore after coming forward with his admission of being a victim of catfishing. 

A new Netflix documentary titled Untold: The Girlfriend Who Didn’t Exist released on Tuesday and chronicles the situation. Te'o recently appeared on CBS Mornings where he shared how going to see Jay-Z in concert provided the sign he needed to open up about his story. 

“Cam Jordan with the Saints took a bunch of us teammates to a Jay-Z concert,” Te’o recalled. “And at that concert, Jay-Z opens with saying these words, ‘You cannot heal what you don’t reveal.’ And it may have been just some random words to everybody, but for me, at that time, it hit me like a ton of bricks.”

“In order for me to kind of heal from this, I needed to reveal it,” he continued.
