“What’s up with Jet’s Nation?” Fashanu said. “This is Olu Fashanu. I’m very excited to be part of this great team. I’m very excited to play for such a beautiful and passionate fan base and may’t wait to get to work. Thank you.”

Amanda Seales has develop into the subject of trending conversation on social media after she recently appeared on the “Club Shay Shay” podcast for a three-hour episode with Shannon Sharpe.

While some viewers are still debating her likability and her medically unconfirmed autism diagnosis, the NFL Hall of Famer offered nothing but pleasantries concerning the “Insecure” actress despite their rocky start to their relationship. In the most recent installment of “Nightcap,” Sharpe shared his thoughts on Seales.

“Whatever she said must have been good because everyone agreed with her,” said co-host Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson. This led Sharpe to state that Seales was “rejected” by Black Hollywood and that much of her personality was shaped by trauma.

“There were a number of things that happened in her life that made her extremely defensive. “She’s a very, very intelligent woman, very intelligent, very well-read, but sometimes she feels like everyone is out to get her,” the previous Denver Broncos star said. He continued, “And so until she feels comfortable with you, she will maintain this vigilance. She will guard this cover.

The three-time Super Bowl champion said even his warm welcome to Seales was no exception. – Because I asked her for a hug earlier. She said, “No, I don’t hug.” I asked her, I said give me some dap, she won’t give me dap. But once I told her, I said, “Amanda, this is a safe place.” You can tell your story. She sat up, fell down and asked, “Can I have a hug?” And then she was cool,” he said.

This is so awkward. Amanda Seales says that when she was a baby in school, she would correct her teacher in front of the category and get in trouble for it. She says it’s because she was a black kid and the teacher was white, but Shannon Sharp disagrees, don’t you’re thinking that? #clubshayshay pic.twitter.com/JRbYsGvaDK

In this episode, when Sharpe asked to hug, pet, and even call her his sister, Seales matter-of-factly explained to him, “First of all, I’m not a giant fan of hugs normally, but this is not it. ; See, I’m not petty, I’m not fake. I won’t hug individuals who aren’t my people.

Later, nevertheless, he explained, she joined of their discussion and accepted that she could actually be in a “safe space,” which in turn allowed them to hug.

Sharpe told Johnson and co-host Gilbert Arenas: “I have no problems with Amanda Seales. She was great, she’s very funny, really – and I think some people did something bad to her – because that’s what you deal with. We all go through this.”

Some of the comments in response to his comments will be read from the attitude of individuals complaining concerning the “Small Doses” podcast host, speaking in her favor, and a few criticizing Sharpe. “Unless you were so dismissive of her black experiences, you need to work on your scope when interviewing black women,” one commenter said.

A second person said: “My uncle was very respectful and when Amanda pulled away, he listened. These are two very strong personalities, so it happens. “Great interview.”

A 3rd perspective suggested, “And all she’s doing now is publishing stories that try to paint Shannon in a bad light in this interview.”

In an Instagram post featuring disabled comments, the creator of “Small Doses: Powerful Truths for Everyday Use” stated that Sharpe was frustrated that she didn’t confirm whether a physician had diagnosed her with autism, although she clarified that she identified as as an individual on the spectrum.

Seales wrote: “I was not going to give in to pressure from this man, who was interrogating me, showing absolutely zero love for me, to prove something to him that L, through his line of questioning. He has already committed to undermining.”

She spoke intimately on an Instagram live, denouncing the pervasiveness of the conditioned Western view as people share their personal viewpoints.

Her comments did nothing to change critics’ negative opinion of her, but Seales’ fans doubled down in showing her support.
