Shaq, 52, appeared on GMA to talk about his new game show Lucky 13, basketball, and more.

Lucky 13 is hosted by Shaq and actress Gina Rodriguez where contestants answer 13 true or false questions.

When they finish answering them, the hosts ask how many they think they got correct, and if they got all 13 right, they will win $1 million.

While discussing women’s basketball with the GMA hosts, Shaq shouted out player Kelsey Plum and told her to call him.

When the interview ended, Shaq called her out again and mouthed, “I love you.”

The hosts laughed as Lara Spencer asked Shaq if there was anyone else that he’d like to shout out.

“Uh,” Shaq thought. “Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry, call me.”

Shaq’s admission comes just after divorce rumors for JLo and Ben Affleck have emerged in recent months.

BENNIFER OVER AGAIN?

Rumors began to swirl when Jennifer, 54, liked a post about breakups on Instagram in May.

The couple was then seen out separately without their wedding rings for several weeks that month.

But just a few days later, the couple seemed to quash the rumors when they stepped out together wearing their wedding rings.

Confusing fans, they attended several career events alone that month, including the Met Gala.

Sources told Us Weekly that Ben, 51, moved out of their shared home just a few weeks prior.

In a shocking development, JLo then canceled her tour at the end of the month to “spend more time with her family.”

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck relationship timeline

JLo and Ben were first linked together in 2002 and became engaged later that year. However, they called off the wedding just two years later. They rekindled their romance in 2021 and finally got hitched in 2022. Here is a timeline of their love story:

June 2002 – Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck met on the set of Gigli and JLo divorced from her second husband Cris Judd
November 2002 – Ben proposed to JLo with a six-carat pink diamond ring
September 2003 – JLo and Ben called off their wedding and blamed it on ‘excessive media attention’
January 2004 – The celebrity couple announce they are heading separate ways
July 2021 – JLo posts an intimate photo of herself beside Ben and they begin dating again
April 2022 – Ben proposes to JLo for a second time
July 2022 – The celebrity couple officially celebrated their nuptials in a Las Vegas, Nevada, ceremony
August 2022 – Ben and JLo have a second A-list wedding at their $8.9million George estate

A source close to Ben told Page Six in May, “If there was a way to divorce on the grounds of temporary insanity, he would.

“He feels like the last two years was just a fever dream and he’s come to his senses now and understands there is just no way this is going to work.”

Ben and Jennifer first started dating in 2002 and got engaged soon after.

But the pair broke it off in 2004 before they could get married.

Ben and Jennifer then rekindled their relationship years later in 2021 and got married in July 2022.

SHAQ’S GOT GAME

Jennifer isn’t the only one who Shaq wants to call him.

During a podcast episode in May on The Big Podcast with Shaq, the game show host shot his shot with podcaster Bobbi Althoff.

He called her on camera to ask her on a date to the movies, and she said yes.

“All right. I love you Bobbi, I’ll call you later,” Shaq ended the call.

Bobbi said that she loved him too.

The kicker is that Shaq was interviewing comedian Funny Marco at the time, who is rumored to be dating Bobbi.

“Once she goes Shaq, she’ll never go back,” the former basketball player told his guest.

Bobbi recently split from her husband, Cory, after four years of marriage.
