Dwyane Wade, a Miami Heat superstar, responded to rappers Cam’Ron and Mase’s remarks to his potential nail care brand.
Cam’Ron walked off set while discussing Wade’s potential nail polish business endeavour near the close of the July 12 episode of “It Is What It Is,” a podcast cohosted by Cam’Ron, Mase, and Treasure Wilson. At the same time, Mase said, “Oh, my goodness.”
The podcast piece went viral on social media, prompting Wade to respond on an Instagram post about it published by Hollywood Unlocked.
“It’s the ‘Oh, goodness’ for me,” Wade tweeted, adding a laughing emoji.
Wade teased establishing the nail care brand during a CBS Mornings interview last week, while showing off his manicure.
“You know, I am creative. I am an expressive person. “And there are so many ways to do that,” Wade explained. “I am considering of jumping into the nail line. I have been thinking about it, yes. I’ve been thinking about it. I’ve been in it for so long, and I’m thinking, you know what? This may be a good time. But I have some interesting concepts that I am exploring.”
In addition to seeing his passion for nail care as a cool career move, he utilizes it to connect with his daughter Kaavia.
“One of my favourite things to do when it comes to this is actually sitting down with my daughter and getting my nails painted and painting hers,” Wade recalled. “That’s when we get to connect – when I’m doing something she enjoys and something I enjoy. I also give her manicures and pedicures.”
Wade is an experienced manicure artist. Wade’s manicure for his Hall of Fame induction ceremony in January was red, nude, and black, representing the colours of the Miami Heat, with whom he played from 2003 to 2016, and again from 2018 to 2019, after previously playing for the Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers.
“This is like seeing [Michael] Jordan in lingerie,” Mase stated while Cam’Ron laughed on a January episode of their podcast.
Wade told Highsnobiety in March that he has been painting his nails in different colours since 2007 and that his fashion sense comes from his father and uncles. Then, on an April episode of “The Wine Down” podcast, Wade claimed that Michael Jordan’s clear nail polish also inspired him.
“One day, I saw that MJ had clear lacquer on his nails. And when I mention MJ, I mean Mike Jordan. And I was like, “Oh, yeah.” I can obtain clear polish. Mike’s got it! Wade asked, “You understand what I’m saying?”
Initially apprehensive owing to societal expectations, Wade chose clear polish to avoid criticism and retain a typically manly look.
