Stephen A. Smith’s Daughter Roasts Him During His Show: 'He Cannot Afford a Hair Transplant'

“Yes, his forehead still has space."

Stephen A. Smith’s daughter got the chance to publicly roast her dad on an episode of The Stephen A. Smith Show.

In an episode posted on Aug. 19, Stephen A.’s daughter, Samantha, signed off by thanking fans for tuning in while also drawing attention to her father’s hair.

“This is it for this edition of The Stephen A. Smith Show with Samantha A. Smith and Stephen A Smith,” she began around the 28:12 mark. “Thank you guys for tuning in.”

As she continued with the in-depth wrap up, Samantha grabbed her father’s head for an unscripted takedown of the sports commentator who’s made a living out of taking down athletes.

“Yes, his forehead still has space,” she joked. “You guys, there will always be space. No, he cannot afford a hair transplant — so keep watching so he can afford it.”

Earlier this month, Stephen entertained the idea that he’d run for president in the future. During an appearance on Real Time with Bill Maher, Stephen admitted that he “can’t imagine” pursuing being president, but he acknowledged that it’s still a “possible” move in the future.

“Life is good, man. I leave the door open,” said Stephen. “I can’t imagine myself doing it, but I haven’t ruled it out, because I’m disgusted with what I’m seeing on the left.”

Smith added that he believes the Democratic party’s national leadership is “non-existent,” saying, “a construction worker could win the Democratic nomination right now.”

“They better get their act together,” Smith said. “The party is in disarray. New leadership.”

While that sounds like a sure plan for Smith, in the past, he’s also suggested that he really doesn’t want to be president. In May, he told Deadline, “I have no intentions of running for president… I have no desire to be a politician at all.”

“I just signed a new contract with ESPN. I’m acting on General Hospital and Law & Order,” Smith added. “My life is pretty damn good. Why would I ruin it by being a politician? But… you never know what God has planned for you, so you just leave your options open.”
