Shannon Sharpe Sparks Outrage After Apparent “Hand Slip” with R&B Star Kandi Burruss on Club Shay Shay

NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe is no stranger to the spotlight, but this time, it’s not his sports takes making headlines—it’s his wandering hand.

Sharpe, who’s known for trading hot takes with Skip Bayless on FS1’s “Undisputed,” also hosts his own hit podcast, Club Shay Shay, where he interviews celebrities from every corner of pop culture. The latest guest? R&B singer and television personality Kandi Burruss.

But before the cameras started rolling, things got awkward. As Shannon and Kandi posed for photos, fans couldn’t help but notice Sharpe’s left hand dropping a bit too low—landing squarely on Burruss’s backside. The moment, caught on camera, quickly made the rounds online.

Kandi appeared visibly uncomfortable, tugging at her hair and gently trying to shift Sharpe’s hand away. But the internet had already seen enough.

A parody account on X (formerly Twitter) posted the clip with the caption:
“Unc hand open wider than the collection plate bruh he think he slick.”

The post went viral, with fans chiming in and sharing their own reactions, poking fun at Sharpe’s “meathook” and the awkward encounter.

Some found the moment hilarious, others cringed, and many called for Sharpe to address the incident publicly. “Hopefully, Shannon addresses this one during Undisputed this Wednesday. We can’t wait to hear what he has to say,” one user wrote.

As of now, neither Sharpe nor Burruss has commented on the viral moment. But one thing’s for sure: social media isn’t letting it go anytime soon.

Whether it was an innocent mistake or something more, Shannon Sharpe’s “hand slip” has everyone talking—and waiting to see if he’ll finally break his silence.

Shannon Sharpe had folks feeling all sorts of ways after he appeared to grab the butt of an R&B singer and television personality prior to an interview on his Club Shay Shay podcast.

 

Sharpe – who sits opposite Skip Bayless for their weekday morning broadcast, Skip and Shannon: Undisputed, on FS1 – also runs his own show on which he brings in some big-name guests.

 

Kandi Burruss was the latest one to sit down with him and the pair discussed a variety of topics during the episode. Before they kicked things off, however, Shannon and Kandi embraced and posed for photos. The NFL Hall of Famer’s hand ended up dropping a bit too low.

It appears Unc tried to get himself a handful of b00ty, with his left meathook opening up unnaturally wide.

Kandi appeared somewhat uncomfortable as she tugged on her hair and tried to push the hand away.

Hopefully, Shannon addresses this one during Undisputed this Wednesday. We can’t wait to hear what he has to say.
