Former NFL star Shannon Sharpe isn’t the only celebrity who recently got caught with their pants down thanks to technology.
Sara Haines, a co-host of The View, can relate to the football Hall of Famer, who recently admitted he mistakenly went live on Instagram while performing a sex act.
During Friday’s (Sept 13) Hot Topic segment of the long-running talk show, Haines revealed her Amazon Alexa device once responded to noises she and husband Max Shifrin made during sexy time.
“One time Max and I were ‘cuddling,'” she shared with a coy smile. “Alexa answered, (she) was like, ‘I’m sorry, I don’t understand the question.'”
Co-host Joy Behar was quick to clarify that Haines and her husband were “cuddling naked.”
“If this happened in my house, I think (my husband) Al would be with the top down in the convertible rolling down Miami playing it on a loudspeaker,” Ana Navarro quipped.
As for Alyssa Farah Griffin, who said what happened to Sharpe is her “biggest fear,” the conservative co-host said she takes extra precautionary measures during intimate moments with her spouse.
“I swear, every time I have sex with my husband, I take the phone off the bed and put it upside-down,” the former Trump staffer said. “I’m afraid of live-streaming or my mum calls and hears it.”
Sharpe, who has become a social media sensation for his eyebrow-raising fashion sensibility and wildly popular Club Shay Shay podcast, is still rattled by the incident that has spurred endless memes and scuttlebutt.
“(I’m) someone that is extremely, extremely private and to have one of your most intimate details – the audio – heard for the entire world to hear? I’m embarrassed for a number of reasons,” the 56-year-old said on his Nightcap podcast on Sept 11.
Sharpe previously claimed his account had been hacked before admitting it was an accident due to his lack of technology know-how. He said he was not aware at any point that his phone was recording. – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service
