Shannon Sharpe is dealing with some extremely concerning accusations off the field. The Hall of Fame tight end is being sued for more than $50 million, and his accuser isn’t doing him any favors.
“$2,000 For The Video” Shannon Sharpe Sees Sexual Assault Accuser Make Offer To Public

A lawsuit filed by 21-year-old Gabriella Zuniga against NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe for $50 million has sparked new controversy:
Known online as “Karli,” Zuniga is offering a new sex tape exclusively to fans who tip over $2,000 on her platform, adding fuel to an already high-profile legal battle.
The timing raises eyebrows. Zuniga is in the middle of a civil lawsuit accusing Sharpe of sexual assault, battery, and emotional distress. While she claims the abuse happened during their relationship between 2023 and early 2025, her current move has sparked debate over whether her OnlyFans offer undermines her case, or if it simply exposes the double standards surrounding adult content creators.
Zuniga shared the exclusive offer directly with her fans, promising access to a never-before-seen sex tape for those tipping above the $2,000 mark. She hasn’t confirmed whether Shannon Sharpe appears in the video, but given the lawsuit’s stakes, many expect the tape features someone else. Regardless, the announcement has intensified attention on her digital persona and her ongoing case.

Her attorney, Tony Buzbee, best known for representing clients in high-stakes cases, has remained focused on the claims of abuse. Zuniga alleges that Sharpe manipulated her, recorded private encounters without consent, and threatened violence.
One audio clip released by Buzbee allegedly captures Sharpe saying he would “choke” her. In court filings, Zuniga claims she met Sharpe at a Los Angeles gym at 19, and their relationship escalated from consensual to coercive.
