Issa Rae Admits She’d Never Work With Amanda Seales Again

It’s no secret that Issa Rae and Amanda Seales have had their fair share of differences in the past. During her appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast earlier this year, Seales opened up about some of the downsides to her experience working on Insecure with Rae, claiming that she never felt empowered. “She wasn’t empowering to me. [Issa] didn’t feel like I was needed. She didn’t feel like I deserved to be protected,” Seales said at the time. “I’m only giving a portion of the situation. But that was my experience. And nonetheless, I have still always protected her because I felt like it was my responsibility to do so. But it is not.”

It looks like Rae heard Seales’ comments loud and clear, and doesn’t want to work with her again in the future. Recently on The Breakfast Club, they played audio of her speaking at an event for her wine brand in Brooklyn. When asked who she would never collaborate with again, her answer was Seales.

Issa Rae Addresses Amanda Seales’ Club Shay Shay Comments

“The person I would not work with again… Anyone who goes on a podcast and talks sh*t about me,” she said. The crowd proceeded to go wild, indicating that while Rae did not call Seales out by name, they all knew who she was referring to. This is the first time Rae has commented on her long-rumored feud with Seales publicly, and at the time of writing, Seales has yet to respond.

Seales’ appearance on Club Shay Shay hasn’t only made headlines for reigniting her feud with Rae, however. Sharpe was also under fire following the release of the episode for downplaying Seales’ experiences with bullying, autism, and more. What do you think of Issa Rae claiming that she never wants to work with Amanda Seales again? Does this surprise you or not?

Marlon Wayans Sees Harvey Weinstein’s Downfall As “Revenge” For Stealing His Movie Ideas

Marlon Wayans had a lot to say on Club Shay Shay with Shannon Sharpe, including a dark and foreboding tale about how he allegedly hung out with Tupac in Vegas right before his death. But this new interview also saw him reflect on past injustices throughout his career and how they eventually saw retribution. Moreover, the entertainer accused producer Harvey Weinstein of stealing his and his family’s ideas for Scary Movie 3. While this and other factors made Wayans consider a lawsuit, the multiple sexual misconduct convictions that Weinstein faced years down the line ended up serving justice. The actor also accused the executive of subjecting him and his family to very poor deals and not being able to make as good of a comedy film as they could.

“God comes for you…” Marlon Wayans shared. “All the toxic things you did to me and my family. They took it from us and gave it to somebody else ’cause we couldn’t make a deal… I always say, they didn’t just r**e and molest women. [They] molested us in them deals. They were terrible people.

“You can’t do Wayans s**t without the Wayans,” Marlon Wayans continued. “You can try, but eventually you’re gonna lose a lot of money because what we do is special. We have 200 years of comedy between me, Shawn and Keenan. Damon, Kim. We have a lot of years of excellence of what we do. You can’t just put anybody on them. Sometimes you ain’t gotta do nothing because God’s gonna do it all. God’s revenge. When God comes for you, you got to trust God. You don’t retaliate, vengeance is mine.

“They took Miramax, his company…” Marlon Wayans concluded. “Then they had the Weinstein Co. and then all this stuff started going down with the r**e allegations and they took that company, too. And now, your brother’s in jail and you ain’t in the business. I didn’t have to do nothing… Sometimes they get mad that a Black man has the nerve to ask for what his money is supposed to be. Don’t you tell me what I’m supposed to make. This is what my value is and if you want that, then you gon’ have to pay me what I’m worth.”

Marlon Wayans Claims He Hung Out With Tupac Minutes Before He Was Murdered

Shannon Sharpe’s latest guest on his Club Shay Shay podcast is none other than DJ Vlad’s recent Twitter opponent Marlon Wayans. Moreover, they spoke about a whole host of topics, including his career, personal relationships, and reflections on his decades in the industry and celebrity ecosystem. However, the actor and comedian raised some eyebrows thanks to one of his stories. He told Sharpe about the time that he and fellow entertainer Omar Epps allegedly saw Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas just 20 minutes or so before suspects fatally shot him. It’s a dark and strange tale, one that offers yet another perspective on this monumental tragedy in hip-hop history.

“I saw Tupac in Vegas at The Luxor 20 minutes before he got shot,” Marlon Wayans alleged. “I seen Suge and all these cars and thugs and reds. I turned white, I was like… ‘M-m-m-maybe we shouldn’t go over there. Let’s just wave from here.’ Omar [Epps] was like, ‘Nah, we got to go say what’s up and pay our respects.’ ‘Pac was a huge star at this time. And I was like, ‘Are you sure? It sure looks like a lot of trouble over there.’

Marlon Wayans Speaks On Alleged Tupac Meeting Before He Got Shot

“I give him a hug, we all talk, kick it for five minutes,” Marlon Wayans continued his alleged recollection of his and Epps’ run-in with Tupac. “And the BMW pulls up. Me, Omar and Mitchell [Marchand] get in a cab and we pull off. I’ll never forget the look on Tupac’s face as we pulled off. He was looking at us like, ‘Man, I miss that freedom, I miss that fun.’

“He was just in this chaos,” Marlon Wayans concluded. “There was a part of him that wished that… It was like the innocence. [He wished that] he could just go with the innocence. And so we left and then 20 minutes later, we heard he got shot.” It’s important to note that this wasn’t the first time that the two had met. They worked together on the 1994 film Above The Rim, and Wayans has spoken about his bond with the late legend in the past.

Tyrese Believes Snoop Dogg Is A More Famous Rapper Than Jay-Z

Tyrese was the latest guest on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast, and we’re sure that it will make for another explosive episode. In fact, the former even proclaimed that it will make about as much of a splash as the Katt Williams interview did, which is certainly a tall order. However, one thing that might be more controversial and debatable than this assessment relates to one of their many discussions. At one point during their conversation, the duo landed on the topic of Snoop Dogg and Jay-Z, and decided to debate which of the two hip-hop superstars is more of a globally famous celebrity.

“Who’s a bigger rapper globally? Most famous of the two. Jay-Z or Snoop Dogg?” Tyrese asked. “If Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg were in a mall in Moscow, who would shut the mall down? [Snoop Dogg is the] biggest f***ing superstar in the world. That’s my big homie. Long Beach, West Coast, I wish a motherf***er would.” We know that Snoop and the actor/singer are very good friends, with both of them supporting each other through some tough personal hardships over recent months.

Tyrese & Shannon Sharpe Debate Whether Snoop Dogg Or Jay-Z Is The Most Famous Rapper

As for Snoop Dogg and Jay-Z, they don’t cross over often, but they do share a lot of common collaborators, institutions, and goals. For example, they will both appear in Pharrell’s upcoming LEGO film alongside other MCs like Kendrick Lamar, playing fictionalized mini-figure versions of themselves. Elsewhere, they don’t have much of a collaborative history or strong links, but they definitely respect each other to the highest degree as rap legends. After all, they are arguably the two biggest faces of the genre and represent it – for better or worse – at the highest mainstream commercial levels.

Meanwhile, Snoop Dogg had previously joked about not being invited to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation brunch, so maybe that informs a bit of this “Who’s more famous?” discussion. “They know when I walk in, my outfit is going to turn everything out. So they like, ‘Keep that n***a away,’” he said during a podcast interview. Jokes aside, we wonder if we will see these two hip-hop icons link up in some way in the near future, or if their paths will focus more on their individual exploits.

Tyrese Hilariously Roasts Shannon Sharpe For Infamous Car Video

Today, Shannon Sharpe dropped a new episode of Club Shay Shay featuring Tyrese, which expectedly arrived full of interesting moments. At one point in the interview, for example, Tyrese referenced a clip of Sharpe getting out of a car, which quickly went viral earlier this year. In it, he rocks an all-green outfit with a bright orange bag and awkwardly walks away from the car to meet fans.

“You walked your a** out like you were supposed to see a chiropractor that week,” Tyrese said of the video. “That motherf*cker had a different kind of wiggle.” After roasting Sharpe for the video briefly, he came to his defense, noting that sitting in a car for a long time can’t be easy for an ex-NFL player at his height.

Tyrese On The Truth About Social Media

Tyrese went on, also recalling how the video resulted in a ton of clowning and speculation about Sharpe’s sexuality online. He said that while celebrities often get frustrated by this kind of thing, it’s on them for having put their business out there. “I’ve said and done some d*mb-a** sh*t on social media,” he explained. “But guess what, if I’ve got a problem with what people got to say about me, get off the internet… You ain’t hear no rumors about Denzel, cuz he ain’t on the Gram.”

“At the end of the day, when you invite people into your life and your world, then why are you mad that they’re gonna misunderstand you, twist your words, beat you up when they disagree with you, create who you are and what your intentions are?” he also added. What do you think of Tyrese’s recent appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay? What about him roasting Sharpe for the awkward video of him that went viral this year?

Tyrese Hints That His Upcoming Interview With Shannon Sharpe Could Do “Katt Williams Numbers”

Tyrese is a pretty interesting character. That can be attributed to the Californian actor and singer’s video clips, quotes, troubling relationships, and antics. Overall, all of these factors have made him quite the controversial pop culture figure in the eyes of a lot of people online. However, in that same breath, its lead him to receiving lots of interview requests, which have to be paying him pretty handsomely. Shannon Sharpe clearly sees what’s going on with Tyrese as of late, and its why we are getting a Club Shay Shay interview very soon.

In fact, the episode is currently in the middle of its premiere at the time of writing. Sharpe teased the interview on the Club Shay Shay Instagram account late last night, saying that they will be discussing their “internet-breaking videos”. They both have a lot of them, so it should be a ton of fun. However, Tyrese is taking it a step further, according to theJasmineBrand.

A post shared by the Jasmine BRAND (@thejasminebrand)

In a short video clip, he believes that if the Club Shay Shay producers air their entire episode, then it could do “Katt Williams” numbers. At the time of writing, Katt’s viral and unhinged sit-down has over 73.5 million views and its one of the most-watched interviews on the platform. So, it will be a tall task if that was the goal for Tyrese, and fans seem to think he’s doing too much. “I don’t know if it’s Tyrese or his ego, but one of them is draining😩”, one user expresses. “He should’ve just let the interview speak for itself 🤦🏾‍♂️ Now the expectation will be too high and it won’t do as well 🤷🏾‍♂️”, another predicts. There should still be plenty to dissect, so be sure to stick around for more updates on this interview.

DL Hughley Explains Why He Will Never Be On Shannon Sharpe’s “Predatory” Podcast

D.L. Hughley was one of many comedians that had something big to say about the 2024 interview that keeps on giving. Moreover, during a recent sit-down interview with DJ Vlad on VladTV, he expressed why he thinks that Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast became “predatory” with the Katt Williams interview and why he’d never go on it. Principally, the comedian came to this conclusion because it didn’t fairly characterize the relationships that most comedians have with each other.

“I think that, like any other endeavor, there are jealousies, idiosyncrasies,” D.L. Hughley’s comments on Shannon Sharpe began. “But I don’t think that’s indicative of the experiences that most of us have. After the Katt Williams interview, which was a phenomenon, he kept trying to replicate it. ‘Let me bring on somebody else to have a beef.’ Like, I can understand it was a phenomenon. But then, all of a sudden, you try to replicate it.

“To me, just like you love what you do, he love what he does,” D.L Hughley continued concerning Shannon Sharpe. “For me, as a matter of principle, it is too messy. Now, I think it’s morphed into something else because I think that brook has run dry. But for me, it’s just all of those people I saw on there were people who wanted to go on there because of what happened on Undisputed. The way Skip did him made me and a lot of other Black people go ‘F**k this, we’re going to make sure this brother’s okay.’

“But then you take that and the very people that got there first, I think, were damaged by the first iteration of what went on,” D.L. Hughley concluded. “For me, I would never do it. I was going to do it a long time ago. Honestly, before that happened, I had been slated to do it a couple of different times. I just didn’t. I’m glad he’s making his money, I’m glad he’s doing what he’s doing. I’m not jealous or hateful. It’s just a personal thing I wouldn’t do. And people can say, ‘Why you do Vlad and not him?’ I f**k with you. [He] don’t need me anyway. And he was my favorite football player ever. He’s my favorite tight-end ever, ever.”

Shannon Sharpe’s Kendrick Lamar And Drake Stance Leads To An Admission From John Cena

Shannon Sharpe brought up the viral feud between Kendrick Lamar and Drake during a recent interview with John Cena on Club Shay Shay. In doing so, he explained why he feels Lamar won the beef, which prompted the WWE legend to reveal he hasn’t listened to hip-hop in many years. “I know nothing about this,” Cena admitted. “All I know is the headlines. I’m the one person, the one breathing human being who did not hear bar one of this beef. I haven’t heard any music, any tracks, nothing, so this is all new to me. Who won?”

Sharpe began by bringing up Lamar’s diss track, “Not Like Us.” “They play it all the time,” he said. “There’s not gonna be a football game, a basketball game, or anything that you go to where the home team is winning where you’re not gonna hear, ‘They’re not like us.’ Kendrick won. Isn’t it the most-played diss in history already? I think it’s the biggest song this summer.”

From there, Cena explained that Drake is one of the last rappers he remembers listening to before he moved away from his interest in hip-hop. “I kinda drifted away from hip-hop right around Drake and I always thought Drake is extremely talented,” he said. “Again, I love wordplay. I think his stuff is very well thought out, I think he’s very poetic, I like the way he adds music into the songs. I don’t have enough depth of field to evaluate anybody current. He was like the last one where it becomes fade to nothingness.”

Shannon Sharpe Apologized To Megan Thee Stallion For Making A Vulgar Joke About Her

Megan Thee Stallion is taking one heck of a victory lap in the wake of releasing her new album, Megan. In addition to reupping one of her most high-profile partnerships with a hilarious commercial for Amazon Prime Day, she’s also been celebrating the success of her Hot Girl Summer Tour, which has brought both admirers and increased camaraderie with the current generation of rap girls. She was given a chance to talk about it all — and given an apology for a vulgar joke — on the latest episode of Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay show.

Right at the top of the episode, Sharpe issued his mea culpa for the tasteless joke, which involved a comment on Meg’s attractiveness that came across as very unattractive. During a prior episode in November with fellow former NFL star Chad Johnson, Sharpe noted that Megan was “stacked up like dirty laundry in a dorm room” then, in response to a question about dating her by saying he’d “have her stretched out like a quarter-to-three.”

While he acknowledged that he was out of line, he also assured her it was all said in jest — and as a country girl herself, Meg certainly understood.

Megan Thee Stallion Reveals Who Inspired Her Tequila Brand On “Club Shay Shay”

Megan Thee Stallion has already had a huge year, and the Texas-born performer doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. Aside from making her way across North America on her “Hot Girl Summer” tour alongside GloRilla, Meg just recently unleashed her brand-new album, Megan. The project has been a major success so far, and listeners can agree that it was well worth the wait. She’s also been teasing a new, non-music-related endeavor as of late, however. In May of this year, Meg gave her Instagram followers a fun first look at her very own tequila brand.

Specifics of the launch have yet to be revealed, though at the time she said it’d be “dropping soon.” She also shared some exciting new details about it during her recent appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast. According to her, she was encouraged to dabble in the liquor industry by a fellow female superstar, who certainly knows a thing or two about marketing.

Megan Thee Stallion Says Beyonce Encouraged Her To Start Liquor Brand

“Beyonce is actually the person that inspired me to get my own tequila,” she told Sharpe. “Because I used to be the cognac queen. I still am the cognac queen. But as much as I used to enjoy cognac, and I’ve promoted a lot of people’s liquor brands, she was like, ‘the next time I see you, you better have your own. You need to have your own alcohol.’”

A rocky past with her old label 1501 Certified Entertainment also inspired Meg to learn the ins and outs of being her own boss.
