Amanda Seales' recent appearance on Shannon Sharpe's Club Shay Shay podcast has sparked a heated debate. Seales, known for her outspoken nature, went off on Emmanuel Acho over his criticism of Angel Reese. However, the real controversy erupted when Sharpe seemingly dismissed Seales's experiences with racism, leading to a heated exchange between the two. Seales told a story about how she was called the N-word when she was young, and Shannon was less than empathetic. Among other moments where Sharpe seemed out of his depths, Sharpe's dismissive attitude rubbed fans the wrong way.
Seales is the latest celebrity to have viral moments on Sharpe's show. Everyone is still recovering from the Katt Williams interview, in which he aired out the entire industry. The interview apparently made Sharpe more money than he ever made in his Hall of Fame football career. This time around, the focus isn't necessarily on the geist but on the interviewer. Sharpe has come under fire for his interview skills and seemingly defensive response to his guest's experience with discrimination. The latest interview has people asking if Sharpe is equipped to handle these types of serious conversations.
Shannon Sharpe Under Fire For Performance In Amanda Seales Interview
Shannon Sharpe has been accused of being insensitive and dismissive during his interview with Amanda Seales. When Seales opened up about experiencing being called the N-word as a child, Sharpe responded by saying, "They're Kids." He continued, "As a child, you never said anything derogatory? You were just this model citizen as a child?" His response immediately dismissed and undercut Seales' experience. A visibly frustrated Seales replied, "So you have no problem with the children that were cursing out Ruby Bridges? And the Little Rock Nine? Do you think that was just them being kids?" Seales told Shannon to his face that he was being combative and dismissive.
Fans are saying Shannon Sharpe was exposed in his latest interview. The sports personality was also exposed for not knowing basic information about Seales. He implied Seales' mother was white, and when a frustrated Seales corrected him, he then said her father was white, which was also not true and swiftly refuted. After watching the interview, many are wondering if Sharpe is the person to talk to about serious issues. Even in Katt Williams's blockbuster interview, Sharpe was often dismissive of Katt's struggles. Maybe the criticism will get Sharpe to try and be better. Seales was in good spirits after the premiere, thanking fans for her response to her opening up.
