Sharpe Apologizes to Megan
On the Monday episode, Meg sat down with the former NFL star to chat about topics like her new album MEGAN, paying for features, and wanting to collaborate with Billie Eilish. Before the two got into all of that, Sharpe addressed a joke he made back in November about the Hot Girl that was extremely sexual in nature.
Sharpe, 56, told the Grammy winner, “Meg, before we go any further, I want to apologize to you personally. I always wanted to sit down and have a conversation with you — I didn’t know if that was going to be possible.”
Quarter To Three
He previously said on the Nightcap podcast that he would have the Houston native “stretched out like quarter to three.” Going even further with the bit, Sharpe told the co-host Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson, “I do it three ways, Ocho: deep, hard and continuously. That’s all I got, Ocho. You better stop playing. I’d have her opening up like saloon doors… You know my walk [is] a little off right now, but I still do something a little here and there.”
While Megan was listening to his apology and retained a cool demeanor, Sharpe continued, “I said it in jest, but I believe the joke would’ve been just as funny had I left you out of it. So, for any unwanted attention, harm, shame, [or] embarrassment that I caused you or your family, I want to say, as a man, as I sit here before you, I apologize.”
The rapper smiled and crossed her hands over her heart and responded, “I appreciate that, thank you.” The pair later toasted with Sharpe’s cognac, to which the “Cognac Queen” warned him that she’s got high standards. After nosing it and taking a sip, Megan gave Sharpe a good review after being a little weary of it.
