Shaquille O’Neal is clearing the air on his infamous bathroom emergency on “Inside the NBA” last month … admitting once and for all he had to take a dookie.
Yes, someone is getting paid to write this.
The NBA legend let it all out during his appearance on “The Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon on Thursday — after initially insisting his rush from the TNT desk was to drain the snake, he revealed it was a dire situation involving clenched butt cheeks.
53-year-old Shaq started off his explanation by saying he drank a lot of water that day … and even though he displayed a “No. 2 run,” it was not how it seemed.
But the four-time champ couldn’t keep up with the lie … and told Fallon he really had to drop a bomb.
“I just made a mistake,” Shaq said. “I lied to you on national TV. It wasn’t a No. 1 run — it was a No. 2 run. I had to go bad. I had to go so bad.”
“Did you see me squeeze my butt cheeks when I was running??”
Of course, his cohosts made sure to troll him over the whole ordeal … and even brought in a portable toilet to help him out the next night.

Shaq also got offers from several adult diaper companies … which told TMZ Sports at the time they wanted to hook the Big Fella up with some product.
Shaq blamed it all on his olive oil cleanse … which, along with the belief it helps shrink the stomach, apparently has a side effect of REALLY clearing someone out.
So why put himself through such an experience?? Shaq said he wanted to be sexy.
Damn you, beauty standards.
