OK, stop the planet. Shannon Sharpe just got hit with
a $20 million lawsuit because hebasically did what every auntie
at the family reunion wishes shecould do, stick her nose in
somebody else's business and make it national news.
And who's coming for him? Jim Alita Tillman, who's
achieving the rare feat of suingnot just Shannon, but also Chad
(00:23):
Ochocinco Johnson and the entireproduction company.
Girl must have hit every select all box on the lawsuit.
She's suing like she's on a shopping spree.
Get these bogos. We're not leaving with just one
influencer. So back story for you blessed
souls who don't live on the Internet.
(00:44):
Apparently there was this video where Jim Alita was getting
flirty with Usher. Like actual Usher.
Mr. Let It Burn. The dude who single handedly
kept roller skating in business since 2004.
Anyway, this video was so viral my Uncle Mike saw it on his flip
phone. And then Shannon Sharpe goes on
his podcast Uncensored Uncut Shannon's tea time I take they
(01:09):
all sound like bootleg energy drinks and says Jim Alita's
husband straight up left her because of it.
All casual like he's talking about his breakfast smoothie.
Except according to Jim Alita, that is not what went down.
She said, Sir, I am not going tolet this man usher me out of my
marriage in front of millions. Not today, Satan.
(01:31):
She's literally trying to set the record straight and collect
the bag. Honestly, goals.
Suing for $20 million? The ambition?
I get nervous returning a sweater at H&M.
If I ask for store credit, I break out in a full body rash.
Meanwhile, Jim Alita's like, yeah, I want the GDP of a small
island for your lies. Now can we talk about how wild
(01:55):
it is that you can just say somewild stuff on a podcast and Bing
now you owe someone the net worth of all the Real Housewives
combined. This is peak 2024 energy.
This is the simulation is glitching vibes.
Everyday people are out here scrolling TikTok not realizing a
single bad hot take could have you venmoing a stranger, your
(02:18):
car, your house, your first born, and a set of personalized
Airpods all because you wanted to sound spicy for clips.
And let's not forget Chad. I changed my name like I changed
my socks. Johnson is just sitting there
like wait, I got sued too. For what?
I was literally just vibing. You know, somewhere in Miami
(02:41):
he's calling lawyers who specialize in whoops.
I got dragged into mess by association cases.
But why does this feel so familiar?
Oh, that's right, because Usher is like the human embodiment of
relationship chaos. If Usher walks into your club,
your relationship status immediately switches to It's
complicated. It's like if Usher so much as
(03:04):
glances at you, your boyfriend needs therapy.
At this point, Usher should haveto pay a tax to couples
counsellors everywhere because that man has started more drama
than around one group chat. Honestly, imagine explaining
this to your future grandkids. Grandma, why do we live in a
castle and have a Moat? Because in 2024 Shannon Sharpe
(03:28):
told the world that Uncle Greg left me for slow dancing with
Usher and suddenly, oh look, oursolid gold bidet.
At the end of the day, you got to respect the hustle, Jimmelita
said. Not only are you not going to
play with my name, but you're going to run me a check so big I
can build a usher proof wall around my next relationship.
(03:51):
And Shannon, my guy, you better start selling some of those
custom suits because that legal bill is about to look like a
student loan from Hogwarts. Bottom line in 2024, never
underestimate the power of celebrity drama.
One day you're sipping tea, the next you're in court wishing
you'd said no comment. Pass the popcorn, pass the
(04:15):
subpoena, and keep your flirty dancing on private unless you
want Yeti talking about your mess for free.
