Jonah Hill, Jennifer Hudson & More Wish Shaquille O'Neal A Happy 50th Birthday!

Basketball star Shaquille O’Neal is turning 50 today!

Shaq is widely regarded as one of the greatest basketball players of all time. Shaq was born on March 6, 1972, in Newark, New Jersey. The 7’1” giant has become a legend. Many fans and colleagues took to social media to wish him a happy birthday. Take a look!

“Don’t Look Up” actor Jonah Hill, who stands at 5’7” for reference, wished Shaq a happy birthday in an Instagram snap of the two standing side by side.

“Happy birthday to the GOAT @shaq let’s remake Twins,” he wrote in the caption. “Twins” is a 1988 buddy comedy that features Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito playing unlikely fraternal twin brothers who were separated at birth.

Fans were all for the team-up.

“That would be 🔥!!!” one fan wrote.

“I’d DEFINITELY see that,” another commented.

“I didn’t know I needed that movie remake until just this moment. Make it happen,” said another.

Others couldn’t help but comment on how small Jonah Hill looks standing beside Shaq.

“Man this picture doesn’t look real,” one fan wrote.

“Dude, I knew he was tall, but Jesus, he’s tall AF,” another commented.

“You could be twins,” another joked. “I can't tell who is who 😝”

Another basketball great, Allen Iverson – who was nicknamed “the Answer or “AI” - also took a moment to wish Shaq a happy birthday.

“Happy 50th Birthday to one of my most trusted friends in our fraternity,” he tweeted. “Over the years our friendship has grown beyond the dance floor to a level of mutual respect that can NEVER be measured. Enjoy your day big bro with so many more to come. God bless you and yours @SHAQ.”

Singer and actress Jennifer Hudson shared a hilarious photo on Shaq’s birthday, joking that she ran into him while she was picking up school supplies!

“This man is everywhere !” she tweeted. “I went to pick up my baby school supplies and there’s @SHAQ !! It’s nothing like seeing others blessed by your blessings & that’s just what he does !! We want to wish this legend a Happy Birthday on today!!”

Many fans also piled on the post to wish him a happy birthday as well!
