Well, NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal comes to the defense of the nine-time Grammy Award winner.
“All the people who disrespect my Rihanna, shut the fuck up. Shut up,” she said on “The Big Podcast.” “I was there, it was beautiful. She did a great job. I didn’t know she was pregnant until she broke down, but leave this lady alone…
“You did a great job. I love you. All the people who have something to say: shut the fuck up.”
The performance received some mixed reviews. He called 12 of his best shots in 13 minutes, but has drawn criticism for moves like putting his hand near his crotch and bringing it up to his nose.
But O’Neal didn’t seem too upset about any of it, nor does he think anyone else should be.
