Shaquille O’Neal talks about Kanye West’s love for Kim Kardashian

Like Shaq claims, Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson broke up after 9 months together. After the Lakers legend talked about his prediction coming true, Turner said that the news is everywhere. But the NFL veteran was confused about Kanye West’s deleted post about Pete Davidson.

West made headlines earlier this week when he shared a fake New York Times front page, reading, “SKETE DAVIDSON DEAD AT AGE 28.” However, he later deleted the Instagram post. Adams couldn’t comprehend the superstar’s actions. Turner said that West was rude for that post. However, Shaq supported West. He said, “What? Baby when you are a rapper you are rude. That’s what you do… I like that. Because you know what? He’s still in love with that woman.”

The Lakers legend said that sometimes when a person is in love with another person and if they mess up, they have to fight to get them back. He added that West is fighting for his woman and said that he should be left alone. But Nischelle wondered whether West’s antics could actually help his cause.

O’Neal said that people are doing things similar to what West did now. However, Adams wanted to know whether Shaq thinks what West did was petty. And the former MVP admitted that it was petty from the superstar musician. He added that it could be marketing as well. Shaq said that Kanye West is a genius who knows what he is doing.
