NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal is one of the most dominant men to ever play the game. Shaq now works as an analyst for NBA on TNT. He also has his own podcast called ‘The Big Podcast with SHAQ’. In the podcast, Shaquille O’Neal, Nischelle Turner, and former NFL player Spice Adams discuss almost everything that is trending. 

In the newest episode called ‘The Big AMA’, the NBA playoffs and the Met Gala were discussed. Spice Adams brought Met Gala up and asked whether O’Neal has ever been to a Met Gala. And the big diesel said that he doesn’t go to functions like that.

Nischelle and Spice were quick to dismiss Shaq’s claim and said that he goes to events like that. But the Lakers legend didn’t agree.

Shaq said, “..I go to important functions like cancer research boys and girls. I am not going to no thing just to wear a suit just to show off how fine I am. The ladies already know that I am the finest chocolate bar in the world..”

 

Nischelle also talked about the theme of the event, ‘The Gilded Age’. Shaq and Spice hilariously admitted that they don’t know the meaning of the word ‘gilded’. And O’Neal said that probably Westbrook didn’t know the meaning too. 

The NBA world was split on Westbrook’s dress for the Met Gala. While some liked the way he dressed, some didn’t. But Nischelle said that Russel was dressed appropriately for the theme ‘The Gilded Age’. They also discussed Dwyane Wade and his wife Gabrielle Union’s dress during the event. 

Shaquille O’Neal’s relationships

Even though Shaq is single now, one could say he was a women’s man most of his life. One of the perks of being a superstar in the NBA and a millionaire. Shaq has had his fair share of relationships with women.
