Earlier this year, comedian Katt Williams broke the Internet with a raw and revealing interview on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast, racking up over 70 million views and becoming a standout moment for the show. Fast forward to this week, and Club Shay Shay is back in the spotlight with another major guest—Tyrese Gibson. The singer, actor, and author boldly predicted that his interview would achieve the same viral success as Katt Williams’.
Announcing the interview on Twitter, Shannon Sharpe revealed that Tyrese would be the next guest on the popular podcast. Tyrese quickly made headlines with his confidence, stating that his appearance would “do Katt Williams numbers.” This bold claim generated buzz among fans eager to see if the Fast & Furious star could deliver.
And deliver he did. Overnight, Tyrese’s interview on Club Shay Shay skyrocketed, amassing an impressive 1 million views within hours of its release. While that’s still a way off from Katt Williams’ record-breaking numbers, it’s a strong start that highlights the drawing power of Tyrese’s candidness and Sharpe’s ability to facilitate compelling conversations.
