NextImg:Stephen A. Smith’s ‘supermodel’ comment leads to Molly Qerim’s ‘What the f–k’ moment

ESPN host Molly Qerim might need another vacation after her Christmas break.

The “First Take” host had another viral moment with Stephen A. Smith, who likened her to a supermodel during Wednesday’s installment of the daily ESPN show, according to a video posted to X by Awful Announcing.

Qerim appeared to mouth, “what the f–k,” while looking over at Chris “Mad Dog” Russo, who was in the studio with her.

Molly Qerim tried to make sense of Stephen A. Smith’s bizarre rant.

    “Look at Molly,” Smith said. “Molly was sitting there — once upon a time, she was just a host. Oh, now she’s a supermodel in people’s eyes for crying out loud.

    “We see all these photos of her everywhere and all of this other stuff. The bottom line is this: we modify as time goes on.”

    Qerim looked confused and stoic during Smith’s random commentary.

    It came while he was sharing his hot take that the Rose Bowl should be moved to SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, where the Rams play home games — but he somehow pivoted to rambling about Qerim.

    Russo had his head down while Qerim mouthed the message in his direction.

    Meanwhile, Russo, and NFL analyst Marcus Spears, who also appeared on the show, sat back and stayed silent.

    That moment came one day after ESPN NFL analyst Dan Orlovsky sniffed Qerim’s shoe on-air during Tuesday’s show.
