HOT NEWS: Shaq throws Joy Behar out of his restaurant, bans her for life, “Keep your toxicity out”
Shaquille O’Neal’s restaurant, Shaq’s Big Chicken, was buzzing with activity when a heated exchange erupted between the NBA legend and TV personality Joy Behar. According to eyewitnesses, the confrontation began when Behar, a co-host on The View, made a comment about the restaurant’s food that Shaq took as a personal attack.
Shaq, known for his larger-than-life personality, didn’t hesitate to stand up for himself and his business. “We don’t need your kind of toxicity in here,” he told Behar, his voice firm but calm. “You’re welcome to leave, and don’t come back.” Witnesses claim that Shaq then escorted Behar out of the restaurant, making it clear that she was no longer welcome.
In a statement released after the incident, Shaq’s team confirmed that Joy Behar had been banned from Shaq’s Big Chicken for life. “We strive to provide a welcoming and respectful environment for all our customers,” the statement read. “Unfortunately, Ms. Behar’s behavior fell short of those standards. We wish her all the best, but she won’t be dining with us again anytime soon.”
