Shaq calls off Wedding to Hoopz

During the summer, Shaquille O'Neal reportedly began dating reality star, Nicole "Hoopz" Alexander. Their relationship quickly grew and the two reportedly were engaged. There was never true confirmation, but the couple has made public appearances.

It appeared as if Shaq had moved on with his life since divorcing Shaunie O'Neal. She has clearly moved on with her life. Not only is Shaunie O'Neal enjoying the single life, she also has two hit shows on VH1. Ironically, Hoopz rose to fame on VH1 in the series, "Flavor of Love."

Because of her love for basketball, Hoopz often attended NBA games. By chance, she met Shaq and the two hit it off. It did not take long for the two to enter a relationship. Some media outlets reported that the two were more than casually dating. From the looks of things over the past few months, these sources were correct. When Shaq attended NBA-related functions he always brings Hoopz with him. ESPN, the top sports authority, even refers to Hoopz as Shaq's "new gal pal." But, it appears as if all of this is over effective immediately.

Apparently, the couple got into a heated argument. Shaq was so upset that he demanded Hoopz give him back the $500,000 engagement ring he gave her. The news does not come as a shock to Shaunie O'Neal because she said that every player in the NBA cheats on their women. She did give one exception to her ex-husband's former teammate, Grant Hill.
