ESPN personality Shannon Sharpe, known for his infamous anti-Trump commentary, accidentally went live on Instagram Wednesday while having sex.
Sharpe, an NFL Hall of Famer with over 3 million Instagram followers, initially claimed his account had been hacked but later apologized for his blunder.
“Obviously I am embarrassed. Someone that is extremely, extremely private and to have one of your most intimate details, the audio, heard for the entire world to hear, I’m embarrassed for a number of reasons,” Sharpe said on his Nightcap podcast.
While screen recordings of the live stream do not show Sharpe directly, the sounds of him and a woman can be heard in the background. These recordings have since been widely shared on X.
While grunting, Sharpe identified the woman as “my Michelle” in one of the clips. In others, she is heard groaning, “Papa, I love you,” to which Sharpe, breathing heavily, responded, “Yes, baby.”
During his apology on the podcast, Sharpe explained how the incident occurred.
“I threw my phone on the bed, engaged in an activity,” he proclaimed. “I did not know IG live. I’ve never turned IG live on, so I don’t know how it works and all of sudden my other phone started going off.”
Sharpe said his heart dropped when he answered the phone and was informed his phone had been live-streaming his intimate.
Sharpe, a retired NFL player and a member of the Hall of Fame, won three Super Bowls—two with the Broncos and one with the Baltimore Ravens.
He has since signed a multi-year contract with ESPN, following his appearances on First Take in August 2023. ESPN clarified that he will not be suspended for the live-streaming incident and will return on Monday.
In addition to his ESPN work, he co-hosts the Nightcap podcast with former NFL player Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson.
Sharpe has viciously criticized Trump on both ESPN and social media. In 2020, Sharpe lamented Trump had not been held accountable for what he claimed were controversial remarks.
When whites say something bad in the NFL, they get Tony Dungy to clean it up. Where is the person in the Jewish community that will come to our defense?
I’m not excusing DeSean, but whites never have to disavowal. Jerry Jones & Mr. Kraft stand lock-stock-and-barrel with Trump. pic.twitter.com/H5Bk0vMPb6

His harsh social media commentary included remarks like, “I’d rather pay 20 bucks a gallon than have Trump in office. Hope that answers your question.”

3 Million followers ? I’ve been reading how many of these “celebrities” and “influencers” actually buy followers (via bots ?) and they’re FAKE. There is a private company called GOT CHOSEN that can analyze followers and determine how many are fake that will be the death of those phony accounts.

Kamala Harris will become Xi Jinpings and Putins puppet. She is nothing to them, she doesn’t know how to talk just like her boss, Biden. For someone who was a prosecutor, was well educated I’ll her that, but very very stupid, she acts and talk like a 10 year old.
