However, in a rare instance, Shaq was left stunned by a joke involving him. On the roast of Justin Bieber, comedian Natasha Leggero referred to popular rapper Snoop Dogg as ‘Shaquille O’Neal’s skeleton’. Much to the surprise of the audience, Shaq decided not to hit back and rather enjoyed the joke.
