Comedy stars DL Hughley and Mike Epps have found themselves embroiled in a heated exchange after Epps made some threatening remarks towards former NFL player turned media personality Shannon Sharpe. The drama unfolded after Sharpe reportedly turned down an invitation to appear on Epps’ digital talk show, Club Shay Shay.
In a recent interview, Hughley came to Sharpe’s defense, slamming Epps for his aggressive reaction to the rejection. “Mike needs to chill out and stop acting like a big baby just because Shannon didn’t want to come on his show,” Hughley stated. “Threatening violence is never the answer, especially over something as trivial as this.”
Epps, however, has not taken Hughley’s comments lightly, firing back with a series of tweets calling out the comedian for butting into his business. “DL is just jealous because he’s not as successful as me,” Epps wrote. “He should mind his own business and stay out of mine.”
Despite the escalating tension between the two stars, fans are eagerly awaiting Sharpe’s response to the situation. Will he address Epps’ threats directly or take the high road and ignore the drama? Only time will tell.
