Shaquille O’Neal might want to give marriage another try.
The NBA legend, 50, has the internet buzzing after he appeared to propose to 23-year-old Memphis rapper GloRilla on Instagram Live over the holiday weekend.
“Glo will u marry me,” Shaq wrote in the comments of an Instagram Live conversation between GloRilla and comedian Druski discussing her new music.
Although Shaq is believed to be single, it’s likely that the “Inside the NBA” host was joking, as he is known for his playful remarks and social media antics.
GloRilla, whose real name is Gloria Woods, has yet to address Shaq’s comment outside the Instagram Live session. Both she and Druski appeared to gloss over it in the moment.
Meanwhile, those who tuned into the IG live were entertained by Shaq’s comment.
“Shaq with the deep 3,” one person wrote, while others encouraged Druski, who hosted the conversation, to add Shaq in the live.

“I was a d–khead,” the Lakers legend told People in his cover story. “You don’t know how good you got something ’til it’s gone.”
During an April appearance on “The Pivot Podcast,” Shaq said, “I was bad,” while remembering his nine-year union with Henderson, a former “Basketball Wives” star.

While the four-time NBA champion did not disclose details about what went wrong in the relationship, he did say that he “wasn’t protecting [Henderson] and protecting those vows.”
Shaq and Henderson married in 2002 and finalized their divorce in 2011. They share four children.
