Shaquille O’Neal Snubs Female Journalist’s Heartfelt Request To Stay at His New $1 Million House

Shaquille O’Neal is one of the biggest names in the NBA. Along with his incredible career, Shaq was also very successful in business as well. He has increased his wealth substantially after retiring. But he did disregard his female co-host’s request to stay at his new house in Dallas, which he bought for $1 million.

Shaq loves living in Dallas. Every time he visits the city, he raves about it and he is often seen having a good time. And so he decided to buy a house there. As the Dallas Mavericks reached the Western Conference Finals, he got finally to visit his new house.

It seems like he loves it. But when Nischelle Turner asked if she could borrow the keys, he said no due to one specific reason.

Shaquille O’Neal says Spice can get the key but Turner can’t

Shaq says the reason why he bought the house in Dallas was that he spent too much in hotels. He says he used to spend 50-60k on hotels every week and that wasn’t good. He said that he goes to Dallas frequently, and he has a lot of business there.

So it made sense for him to just buy the house, as this was a long-term investment. And he says this is one of his best real estate investments ever. This comes from a man who sold his house in Florida for $16 million.

When Nischelle Turner asked if she could have a key, Shaq chose violence. He said, “Spice can stay, I don’t know about you… Women can’t stay at my house because they are nosy… I don’t want you looking at pictures and going through drawers and clothes of me and ask me why I got pink underwear with hearts.” 

Turner was shocked at his response and said that she wasn’t nosy. But Spice, the co-host, called her out by the looks on her face and said she looked busted. And her response did not convince Shaq and said that he wouldn’t give her the key. He is just trying to protect his privacy, even though he trolled Turner while doing so.

Shaq never fails to take the opportunity to poke fun at others, and he did just that here.
