With that higher profile has come greater scrutiny.
Comedians like Mike Epps and Eddie Griffin have suggested Sharpe is a closeted homosexual.
Sharpe has addressed that:

"I get it. Moved on. That's what they want to do, have at it. I gave my sister my word ... She said Shannon, what did granny always tell us. She said a lie will die. She said Shannon, at some point you'll learn you can't fight the devil everyday because you'll fight a neverending war. Pick and choose the battles you want to fight. This ain't one you want to fight. Let them say whatever. You know who you are," Shannon said.
