In a shocking turn of events, NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal, known for his larger-than-life personality and love for good food, made headlines today for an unexpected incident at his popular eatery, Big Chicken. Reports are coming in that O’Neal asked talk show host Joy Behar to leave the premises, citing concerns over her “toxic” behavior.
According to eyewitnesses, the incident occurred earlier this afternoon when Behar, known for her outspoken views on “The View,” visited the restaurant. What was supposed to be a casual dining experience quickly escalated into a tense situation. Sources say Shaq, who was on-site at the time, personally intervened when Behar allegedly made controversial remarks that didn’t sit well with the former basketball star.
An insider at the restaurant revealed that Shaq calmly approached Behar and asked her to leave, stating, “We don’t need that kind of negativity here. Keep your toxicity out.” The statement, which has since gone viral on social media, has sparked a flurry of reactions, with fans of both O’Neal and Behar weighing in on the incident.
Big Chicken, known for its fun atmosphere and delicious chicken dishes, has always been a place where people come to relax and enjoy good food. Shaq, who has invested in several business ventures post-retirement, has often emphasized creating a positive environment for his customers.
Behar, who has a history of stirring up controversy with her opinions, has yet to comment on the incident. However, the encounter has already sparked a heated debate online, with some applauding Shaq for standing up for his values, while others believe the situation could have been handled differently.
As the story continues to unfold, one thing is clear: when it comes to maintaining a positive vibe in his establishments, Shaquille O’Neal isn’t willing to compromise.
