Showered With Love by Stepdad and Mom Shaunie, Shaquille O’Neal’s 17YO Daughter Glams Up for Star-Studded Charity Night

Las Vegas gets grander every time the O’Neals are in town. Shaquille O’Neal was hosting his annual charity gala in Sin City with his family among the star-studded performance lineup. Taking a break from games and college tours was one the youngest of the fam. And she had proof of her fun night at the entertainment destination.

Someone keeping an eye out for Shaq’s daughter is her hype-mom and TikTok collaborator, Shaunie Henderson. She had the most mom-like reaction to her daughter’s trip. Shaunie’s new husband also hyped up his stepdaughter’s recent pictures from her Vegas trip.

The Event is such a big night on Shaquille O’Neal’s calendar, it doesn’t need a fancier name than that. The NBA legend brings the biggest names in entertainment together for a night of giving support to The Shaquille O’Neal Foundation. In its third year, The Event gets extra special with the presence of his family

Me’Arah O’Neal, Shaq’s youngest of six children, was in Vegas to enjoy her dad’s gala and more. She seemed to have a night out on the town with the pictures to prove it. She shared them all with her 182k Instagram followers with nothing but an apt star emoji.

The 17-year-old is at a crucial point in her student-athlete life. Me’Arah is fielding offers from highly ranked basketball programs, including the LSU Tigers where her dad played and her sister is currently at. Meanwhile, her mom Shaunie has been accompanying her on college tours and her exhibition games too. A weekend getaway in Vegas is much-deserved.

Me’Arah seemed to have enjoyed Vegas strip’s hotspots like the Hilton Hotels’ recognizable Paris balloon. Owning the neon aesthetic in her effortless style, she posed as imposingly as her dad in front of a glowing “World famous for a reason” sign.

Her post on her escapade didn’t slip her family’s radar. While eldest brother, Myles O’Neal double-tapped the post, Me’Arah’s mom and step-dad were hyping her in the comments.

Shaunie Henderson showered her with love with hearts emojis. Shaunie’s husband, Pastor Keion Henderson commented droplet emojis to summarize Me’Arah is dripping with style.

The reactions sum it up. Big Diesel and the youngest Baby Diesel owned Las Vegas.

It’s a family affair for Shaquille O’Neal

The Los Angeles Lakers legend brought out A-list names like John Legend and Jennifer Hudson along with comedy stars like Ray Romano and Joel McHale for The Event. On October 7, the MGM Hotel was swept by the glamorous stars but it was the O’Neal brood that stood out.

Me’Arah’s grandmother, Lucille, got the best seat in the house, seated right on stage, courtesy of Shaq and his $20,000 donation. She got to see the stars perform up close and even dance with one of them on stage.
