Shaquille O’Neal says he’s ready to take over Hollywood with TMZ … offering to host an upcoming edition of the “TMZ After Dark” tour!

The NBA Hall of Famer told us he’s ready to join up with fans of the show for a night of revelry … as long as we do it up as big as the 7’1″ inch celeb himself.

Shaq tells us he’s down to hit the normal places our tour goes — Scum & Villainy, Saddle Ranch, TomTom, Roosterfish or the like — but, he wants the evening to end with a party of 100K strong … all raging to DJ Diesel himself.

Harvey chatted with Shaq about the nuts and bolts of it, too … and, it sounds like our people gotta get in touch with his — so, it’s in the works!

Shaq might be literally the biggest celebrity to ever host the tour … but, we’ve had some other A-listers lead the tour as well.

Most recently, Farrah Abraham twerked on Master P while riding a bus … and, Ray J, Chanel West Coast and Jerry O’Connell have all hosted in the past.

Basically, ya never know what could happen on one of these popular tours … so, buy your tickets today before they sell out.

We don’t have a date nailed down with Big Aristotle yet … but, we can’t wait for him to wax poetic while throwing back shots on the “TMZ After Dark” tour!
