'You owe me $5,900': Shannon Sharpe says he's broke after OnlyFans settlement, tells Ocho Cinco to pay him back
(Image via Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) Fresh off settling a lawsuit reportedly worth up to $23 million, Shannon Sharpe is out here chasing petty debts and turning it into top-tier podcast content. On a recent episode of Nightcap , Sharpe turned to co-host Chad 'Ocho Cinco' Johnson and hit him with a line fans can't stop quoting. After dropping millions in back-to-back legal battles including one involving an OnlyFans model, it was the timing that had fans absolutely unhinged. One second he's in a courtroom, the next he's calling out Ocho like he's running collections. Here's the full drama and why this tiny debt moment is now all over X. Shannon Sharpe jokes about being broke after OnlyFans-linked lawsuit settlement reportedly worth $23M In case you missed it, Shannon Sharpe has had a month. The sports media legend recently settled a sexual assault lawsuit reportedly tied to an OnlyFans model, with outlets estimating the settlement landed somewhere in the $20–23 million range. While the details remain sealed, the timing of his 'my pocket's light' line couldn't have been more chaotic. The clip itself is straight comedy. In a casual back-and-forth, Sharpe turns to Ocho and says: 'You owe me $5,900, you know my pocket's light right now.' Yes, he's probably joking. But that wasn't even the only legal drama Sharpe's been juggling. He's also facing a $20 million defamation lawsuit from Jimalita Tillman, the woman who went viral for dancing with Usher after Sharpe and Ocho implied on Nightcap that she was married during the moment. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like It's so easy and quick Cars24 - Sell Your Car Sell Now Undo Tillman says the comments were false and damaging, and she wants payback. So yeah... that '$5,900' jab? Fans saw it less as a joke and more as a cry for help. Ocho laughs it off, but Sharpe doesn't drop it, he doubles down, even joking that he's thinking about interest. Fans instantly turned it into meme gold. Some of the top replies on X: 'Trying to save face by making jokes about it makes him look even more like a loser' 'Yo Shannon Sharpe is a fucking icon lmao. This dude is hilarious' It's one of those viral moments where the line between joke and reality gets really blurry. Rich men, lawsuits, and podcast receipts, fans can't stop watching Shannon's slow descent into chaos The moment might've been lighthearted, but fans are also clocking a pattern. Sharpe's recent controversies have been non-stop from legal headlines to awkward podcast moments to wild feuds on Club Shay Shay . Add in the fact that he's still cracking jokes while reportedly hemorrhaging millions? It's giving 'unbothered but broke' energy. Also, let's be honest, if you just paid out a small country's GDP in lawsuit money, maybe don't remind the world you're still collecting IOUs from your co-host. Or maybe do, because this whole saga has only boosted views, clips, and memes.

Bigg Boss Malayalam 7: Eight contestants nominated for first eviction; Shaithya Santhosh receives most votes
Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 witnesses a fiery start as the first nomination process unfolds, exposing early tensions and strategies among contestants. Eight housemates, including social media personality Shaithya Santhosh, face potential eviction after a revealing nomination round. Accusations of inactivity, dispute creation, and inappropriate comments fueled the nominations, setting the stage for a competitive season. The game has officially begun in the Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 house, as the first nomination process has brought tension, strategy, and emotions to the forefront. Just days after a grand launch, the reality show has taken a competitive turn, with eight contestants now in the danger zone, facing possible eviction. In a classic Bigg Boss format, each contestant was individually called into the confession room to nominate two housemates they felt were not fit for the game. This process, though routine, revealed early rifts and perceptions within the house. The nomination round kicked off with Anumol, who named Gizele, claiming she was not being active enough in the house. Her second nomination was Munshi Ranjith, accusing him of creating unnecessary disputes. Gizele seemed to be a common target, as Shanavas also nominated her, citing that her dressing style might not be acceptable to the conservative sections of Kerala society, a comment that has already evoked a debate outside the house. Aryan directed his nominations at Shaithya Santhosh and Nevin, while Nevin, in turn, named Anumol, stating that she appeared to be trying too hard to portray herself as the 'perfect girl' in the house. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Biggest Real Estate Discounts Ever at M3M India.

Why WWE Replaced Stone Cold Steve Austin with The Rock to fight Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania X8
Stone Cold Steve Austin and Hulk Hogan (Image via WWE) The biggest fight of WrestleMania X8 was the one between The Rock and Hulk Hogan . Even though it was not the main event, this fight got way more love than the one that did main event the Show of Shows that year. But what many people might not know is that initially, it was not The Rock who was supposed to face Hogan, but the Rattlesnake himself - Mr. Stone Cold Steve Austin . Then why didn't things go according to plan? Let's find out. Stone Cold Steve Austin refused to fight Hulk Hogan One of the best fights in the history of WrestleMania is the one between The Rock and Hulk Hogan during WrestleMania X8. The show was headlined by Chris Jericho vs Triple H, but it was the Rock-Hogan fight that ended up being the cherry on that pie. Recently, WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross made some surprising revelations about that particular event and that particular fight. He said that Stone Cold Steve Austin refused to fight Hogan during that event leading the company to make a change of plans. On his 'Grilling JR' podcast, Ross said: 'He [Stone Cold] didn't think they had chemistry. He thought the match would suck. And he wasn't going to stand for having a sucky main event, especially at a WrestleMania. So that's the story there. It wasn't anything — it had nothing to do about the finish, or what could the finish be, or what would the finish be, whatsoever." The Rattlesnake, who shared a tribute to The Hulkster after his recent passing, refused to fight against Hogan because he didn't think they could produce something good. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo And this is what could have been, but never did. Even though fans kept waiting for it to happen someday, this one particular bout left them disappointed. Jim Ross says Stone Cold was a perfectionist Well, fans already know Stone Cold Steve Austin has been a perfectionist from Day 1. But that became the main reason behind his refusal to fight The Hulkster during WrestleMania X8. Ross, during the podcast, further said: "It had to do with what Steve wanted — he was a perfectionist. He wanted to have a great match, not a good match, but a great match. And he simply thought he could not get that done, Stone Cold versus Hogan.' Though the event wasn't affected by Stone Cold's decision, and the fight between The Rock and Hulk Hogan ended up being one of the best fights in WWE history, fans of wrestling never got to see these two heavyweights come together for a big match. Hogan recently passed away at the age of 71, leaving fans of the wrestler devastated all over the world.
