JOY Taylor seemed not to appreciate Keyshawn Johnson’s impression of her on live television.
The sequence took place during FS1’s Speak on Thursday.

Speak featured Joy Taylor, Johnson, and Paul Pierce as the trio discussed Saquon Barkley‘s strong statement that he wants to be the best running back in the history of the NFL.
Then, the NFL icon Johnson claimed that wide receiver legend Jerry Rice is the only player to unanimously be the best at his position.
But Taylor challenged Johnson’s claim and said that Tom Brady is a unanimous GOAT.
While Johnson agreed that the seven-time Super Bowl champion Brady is the greatest, he wouldn’t rule out Joe Montana from being in the convo.
“I know how you feel about Tom,” Johnson told Taylor. “And I like Tom too.”
“That’s how everyone feels about Tom!” Taylor responded.
“The moment you say, ‘Tom,’” Johnson said before attempting an impression of Taylor before scrunching his face and randomly yelling “yabababa,” before banging his fist on the desk.
“That’s what you do!” Johnson said.
Taylor proceeded to bite her tongue and raise her eyebrow as it appeared she didn’t know what to make of Johnson’s attempted impression.
Johnson’s banging of the desk could’ve been a result of Taylor banging a gavel on the table during the same segment.
Nonetheless, Taylor appeared to be annoyed by Johnson’s commentary, and fans took notice of it.
“Taylor did not like that one bit,” one wrote.
“Wow [laughing emojis],” another commented.
“She hated that,” a third added.
