Jalen Green is causing quite a stir in his personal life, in addition to his on-court achievements. The 22-year-old rising celebrity is about to become a father for the first time with his girlfriend Draya Michele. However, this pregnancy has generated a lot of controversy on social media, eliciting a plethora of reactions online. 

Everyone’s responses are varied, and Shaquille O’Neal is encouraging rather than acting like a “hypocrite.”

The Big Podcast, hosted by Lakers icon Shaquille O’Neal, has released a new edition. The former athlete had brought American comedian Bert Kreischer on board as his special guest this time.

When co-host Adam Lefkoe brought up Jalen Green’s situation with Draya Michele during one of the show’s sections, comic Kreischer responded bluntly and expressed feeling uncomfortable because of their age gap. Interestingly enough, O’Neal entered this area to save Green.

You know what I have to say about that?  I don't like being hypocrite. I used to go for older women too. He knew what he was doing and she knew what she was doing. Congratulations to both of them. Hopefully, the baby comes out healthy.
Speaking in The Big Podcast with Bert Kreischer and Adam Lefkoe, Shaquille O’Neal said

For the uninitiated, Michele is 39 years old, and Green is 22, so there is a 17-year age difference. Assuming that they both consented to the age gap, O’Neal doesn’t seem to mind. 

Following their Super Bowl game, Shaquille O’Neal took a cheeky swing at Ice Spice

Shaquille O’Neal never gives up the opportunity to criticize his public flirting. People still recall the 4X NBA champion’s picture with Ice Spice, as he recently revealed his desire for older ladies. Shaq had originally posted a photo of himself with Taylor Swift and Jamie Salter during the Super Bowl. After some time, The Big Aristotle posted another image featuring Ice Spice beside Taylor Swift.

And @icespice is so dam fine thanks @taylorswift.
O’Neal posted the picture to Instagram with the caption,

Shaq praised Taylor Swift in the caption because it was widely believed that she introduced him to Ice Spice. O’Neal also had a wish to meet Taylor Swift, and he got that with a cherry on top, which was none other than Ice Spice herself.

Despite being the same age as the O’Neal children, the rapper is only 24 years old. There was nothing more than his Instagram caption, but it seems that he doesn’t care about the age gap. People adore him no matter what, and he is well-known for such stunts.
