Joy Taylor made her return earlier than expected.
On Monday, the FS1 host appeared on her evening television show, “Speak,” just one day after a lawsuit filed by former Fox Sports hairstylist Noushin Faraji revealed serious allegations concerning her and Skip Bayless.
The lawsuit also named executive Charlie Dixon among the defendants.
Despite being totally inactive on social media, Joy Taylor started her show alongside her co-hosts Keyshawn Johnson, Paul Pierce, and Michael Irvin, stating, “Welcome to ‘Speak!’ I’m Joy Taylor here with Keyshawn Johnson, Paul Pierce, and the playmaker Michael Irvin.”
Fans were absolutely shocked that Fox put her on TV and couldn’t help but notice how awkward things looked on set:
“This was awkward af, wonder how the vibe on set is. Truth thinking about his next gig,” one fan said.
“All them random movements from Keyshawn and Michael Irvin let you know the set was awkward lmao,” a second fan added.
A third fan couldn’t keep his eyes away from how awkward everyone was acting around Joy Taylor: “Look at all those unnecessary movements to act like they don’t know what’s going on. this dude Keyshawn just threw a pitch 😂😂😂😂😂😂.”
“All them random ass movements lol they already know the vibes……shorty is cooked lol Paul pierce ain’t even talking,” a fourth fan commented.
A fifth fan was irate, adding, “So we are just going to let her keep her job after she said she would falsely accuse men of sexual assault if she didn’t get what she wanted?”
One final fan summed it up: “I think Joy is around the right people for what she is dealing with right now because as yall remember, they went through something publicly before coming to FOX with Skip so I think they understand and can help her through this process.”
What The 42-Page Lawsuit Accuses Joy Taylor Of
The lawsuit alleges that Taylor, among many things, made racially insensitive comments towards Faraji, the hairdresser who worked for Fox Sports from 2012 to 2024.
She also claimed that Taylor engaged in sexual relations with executive Charlie Dixon and Emmanuel Acho to advance her career.
She even alleged that she confided in Joy Taylor about an incident where Dixon allegedly groped her at a party in 2017, and Taylor dismissed her concerns, telling her to “get over it.”
“This Is Where The 5+ ERA Arrives” – MLB Fans React To Justin Verlander’s $15 Million One Year Contract With The Giants

Veteran pitcher Justin Verlander is no longer a free agent after agreeing to a one-year deal with the San Francisco Giants. The Giants’ rumors of wanting pitchers were true, but not many anticipated Verlander being the one.
The Houston Astros stayed away from their long-time ace as they never offered him a contract. Not to forget that they did not include Verlander in their postseason rotation last year. 2024 was a disaster for Verlander, and many thought his career would be over. Yet, he’s found his way on the Giants rotation.
While Justin Verlander is ready to pitch for another year, many MLB fans believe that his age would be a letdown. Fans took to social media to express their thoughts on the Giants’ $15 million one-year contract.
Here’s a look at some fan reactions on X.
