Recently, the 7-foot-1-inch giant seemed to be in the mood as he flirted with a female journalist. Moreover, this was while talking about eminent Hollywood actor, Brad Pitt, and his rare disease.

To this, Nischelle Turner said that many years ago, she went out on a date and couldn’t remember anything about the guy’s face except his smile. After hearing this, Shaq couldn’t hold back and said, “I’m not the smartest. I’m not the smartest knife in the drawer but, isn’t the smile part of your face? You can remember lips and teeth but you couldn’t adjust your eyes up 1.1 inches and remember his eyes and his nose stuff? Cut it out Nichelle, cut it out.”
After this, ‘DJ Diesel’ proceeded to playfully flirt with Turner, while also still trolling her. He said, “Hi Nischelle, my name is Shaquille. So, I don’t want to show you my eyes and my nose, because you’re not going to remember anyway. Just remember these lips.”
