This week, you’ve got the option to watchJ.B.
They’ll tell me something, but I’ll hear something totally different because I’m already juiced up.
I’m ready for the celebrity version ofShark Tank, you know?

“I’m telling you,” he continues, “all I heard wasShark Tank.
BecauseShark Tankis on all the time…. Shark Week is, what, once a year?
So you don’t hear Shark Week for what how many weeks are in a year again?
There are, like, 52!
One week of that 52?
All I talk about is going onShark Tankone day.
So my brain is like, ‘Oh man, I can’t wait to go onShark Tank!’
I even told people, ‘I think I’m going to be onShark Tank!
I got a message from my manager that I’m going to be onShark Tank!’
Naturally, I’m thinking, ‘Hey, these guys must know what’s up.’
Even after his manager eventually reeled him back to Earth, Smoove and his wheels started spinning wildly again.
says Smoove, whose dream is to be a guest shark.
Wonderful [Kevin O’Leary], Barbara [Corcoran], Daymond [John]?
These are all my friends, and Mark Cuban is a good friend of mine.
I have a few ideas that I need an investor on.'
Like everybody who I’ve met onShark Tank, they laugh like I’m playing around.
(For the record, those ideas include mood shirts.
“Like the rings, only apparel,” he explains.
“They turn colors depending on your mood.
“And she says, ‘You know who’ll be great?
She knows how much I loveShark Tankalready.
Maybe one of my cool hats.
I look as if I know what the hell I’m talking about.
I blame all this on Cheryl Hines.
(SeveralShark Tankstars did film a2018 Shark Week special.)
Still,the self-proclaimed Black Dolphinwas fully committed to his sea adventure.
“I aced the test to be certified.
I love swimming, but I can’t say that the Black Dolphin has swam with sharks.
I was more afraid before I jumped in the water than when I actually jumped in.
This is your part of the ocean, and I respect that.
As long as you show respect for the sharks, they’re going to show respect back.
There is such a wide range of sharks.
One of my favorites is the hammerhead shark.
I think the hammerhead shark is beautiful.
I’ve seen versions of the hammerhead shark onSpongeBob.
I don’t want to say the real sharks looked like the one inSpongeBob, but…
I get it.”
He also maintains that this Shark Week-Shark Tankmix-up will prove to be a net positive.
“See, this is a different route for me to get on the actual show.
They’re going to see my passion for ideas.
They’re going to see my passion for business.
And they’re going to get a chance to see the Black Dolphin.
Maybe I can [manifest] an idea that revolves around the Black Dolphin.”
Actually, he’s even thinking bigger than that.
“This could be enough to a springboard into the Marvel universe.
I’m already in the Marvel Universe.
I’m Mr. Dell [in theSpider-Manfranchise].
A Black Dolphin movie!”
And for those reasons, we’re in.
