Shaquille O’Neal pulls out Eminem’s name to make fun of his staff member

In a recent episode of The Big podcast, Shaquille O’Neal and Anthony ‘Spice’ Adams were determined to make fun of friend and co-host Nischelle Turner for her obvious liking of Michael B. Jordan.

Apparently, Turner attended the premiere of Creed III recently, while also hanging out with the cast of the movie. Turner was instantly floored by Michael B. Jordan and couldn’t stop talking about him for the rest of the podcast. Naturally, Adams and Shaq sniffed out the opportunity and made fun of their friend on camera. In an attempt to tease her, Adams showed his ‘six-pack’ in front of the camera.

Shaq immediately realized the great setup of the joke and made it even funnier by naming the crew members of his podcast as the legendary rappers Eminem and Kanye. He then called Kanye, and Eminem to show their physique while sarcastically applauding the likeness of their physique to the Creed III star. The Lakers legend ended the conversation with a hysterical comment on the ‘Rapgod’, as he was enjoying the moment with his crew.
