Shaquille O’Neal Dancing To 'Fade' Is Literally All Of Us Trying To Channel Teyana Taylor
Shaquille O’Neal Dancing to ‘FADE’ is a Must Watch

Many were inspired to hit the gym, or at the very least a dance class, when Teyana Taylor debuted her sick moves and post-baby body for the premiere of Kanye West’s “FADE” music video at MTV’s Video Music Awards.

Equally inspired was former NBA player Shaquille O’Neal, who was very recently inducted into the Hall of Fame for his outstanding basketball career. Shaq took to Instagram to show off his “FADE” dance moves.

He captions the video, “Feeling faded #remixchallenge can anyone beat this,” egging on a possible trend of celebrity competitors.

O’Neal may have been trying to be funny, but something should be said for that serious shoulder isolation.

Get it Shaq!
