"My favorite person on Instagram, even though I'm not on...I discovered through Instagram, he's not an Instagram comedian but I discoveredโ€”I became familiar with, I don't want to say I discovered him, the guy has a career. Lil Duval," Rock stated. He added that if it wasn't for Instagram, he would have "got to the party late."
