Grown Ups 2's Shaq Hits the High Notes

The most famous police officer on the beat in fictional Stanton, Conn., is getting less attention for his stature than his hair piece.

Shaquille O'Neal has been wearing a horseshoe-shaped wig below his duty cap on the set of Grown Ups 2.

The movie is being shot this summer in Swampscott and Marblehead and Lynn, all of which serve as the setting for the fictional New England town of Stanton.

Shaq and his wig drew last week.

Today, July 2, the Huffington Post has a short feature that links to a video  that Shaq made in a Grown Ups 2 make-up trailer.

In the video Shaq laments the loss of his hair as Prince sings Purple Rain in the background.

Rain, purple or otherwise, won't be a problem on the Gorwn Ups 2 set in Swampscott this week.

Filming for the Adam Sandler comedy moves inside the in Swampscott at Phillips Park.

The interior filming will feature a wild party scene with the whole cast and perhaps the J. Geils Band.

Cast members include Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, Salma Hayek and Kevin James.

Editor's note: Sorry about the confusion. We added Lynn to the article because, yes, at least a few days have been filmed in Lynn. Other filming locations that we know of include Saugus, Tewksbury and Salem.
