Shaquille O’Neal is always going to shoot his shot.
On Tuesday, the NBA legend appeared on “The Kyle and Jackie O Show” in Australia and didn’t hold back while airing out flirtatious comments to co-host Jackie O Henderson.
“Is that the lovely Jackie O? I don’t want to talk to you Kyle. I only want to talk to Jackie O,” O’Neal said, referring to Henderson’s co-host Kyle Sandilands.
“Bro, Jackie O is worldwide… I got here today, but I wanted to come and see the lovely, talented, gorgeous Jackie O.”
Henderson, meanwhile, appeared to relish in the moment, telling Shaq, “I love you. Oh my god. Favorite guest ever.”

“Kyle, when I move to Sydney it’s going to be the Shaq and Jackie O Show,” he said, to which Sandilands replied, “Come on and do it. I need a holiday, that would be great.”
Later on in the interview, O’Neal playfully took aim at Sandilands.
“When I come to the studio I’m going to hug Jackie O and just push you out of your seat. You got that tough guy. Jackie O before you and that’s it,” O’Neal said.
When Sandilands joked that his presence might be intimidating to O’Neal, the Hall of Famer set his sights on Henderson.
“I’m not even looking at you Kyle, I’m looking at Jackie O.”
Sandilands started laughing and said, “You are just looking at Jackie, I’ve only just noticed now. It’s quite uncomfortable.”
Henderson had a laugh and quipped, “I’m not. I’m loving this.”
O’Neal was in Australia ahead of a number of appearances across Melbourne and Sydney.
DJ Diesel, which is O’Neal’s stage name, will perform at Melbourne nightclub 170 Russell on Wednesday, ahead of his live speaking event at Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena on Thursday. O’Neal is also scheduled to perform a DJ set at The Star’s Marquee nightclub in Sydney on Saturday.
