I am 29. I graduated from a wonderful college, cum laude. I have 2 post grad degrees. I'm currently working to obtain a doctorates degree and I WATCH BASKETBALL WIVES. *smacks lips* I surely do. I think everyone has a guilty pleasure ... no matter how much education you have. Mine just happens to be basketball wives......judge me. I'on care. I complain and complain and complain ... yet every week I tune in. This week a new basketball wives premiered...basketball wives LA. I've been hyped about it all week because of the cast. So here is what I think:
Jackie---lets be honest. Jackie is crazy. I dont know Jackie Christy personally ..... but from what I've seen, read, heard from her in the past few years I've come to the conclusion that Jackie is not working with a full deck of cards. Anyone who has a wedding EVERY SINGLE YEAR is a few fries short of a happy meal if you ask me. She's hood as hell too. I dont know how old Jackie is but I do know she is too damn old to be on this show. Its evident in the fact that she has a kid who is 21 years old. Cmon Jackie! I'm pretty sure Jackie is going to bring lots of drama tho. I mean cmon...she's Jackie Christy. Anyone who knows of her knows that Jackie Christy should've had her own reality show YEARS ago. She's had that man of hers on a leash mentally and physically for years. I believe they had their own reality show once upon a time and it just did not work out. Here is her second shot. I expect lots of drama from Mrs Christy this season.
Laura--first of all I would like to say that if someone like Laura Govan can land a baller, ANYONE CAN! Cmon now. I could've sworn Laura was better looking than that. I'm going to blame the cameramen LOL She looked a hot mess. Laura Govan is the sister of my favorite Miami basketball wives star, Gloria Govan....remember, shes the one that allegedly had the affair with Shaquille Oneal. She is hood as hell and does not even attempt to disguise it. What did she say on tonight's episode? She's a rat! Now who in the right mind would be proud of being a hoodrat? That tells you a lot about Laura already doesnt it. Plus she just had a baby 3 weeks ago and what is she doing? She's not home breastfeeding her kid. She's not combing hair and brushing teeth. No .. she's in a restaurant fighting other women. I expect lots of drama from her too.
Gloria-- Gloria Govan was hands down my favorite character on the original Basketball Wives series. I loved her because she was the only one willing to check Shaunie Oneal's shady ass. However I see already that I'm not really going to like her on this series. Why? because shes the new Shaunie Oneal mane. When did that happen? Gloria was anti-groupies on BBWs Miami but now she's friends with Draya. I cant say that I expect drama from Gloria this season. I dont know what I expect from her. Moving on...
Draya--Why is she on the show? They say she is the "Royce" of the show but how soon do we forget that although Royce could not mention Dwight Howard's name, she DOES have a baby from a basketball player. She has some attachment to basketball. Does Draya have the same? I see in the preview that Draya's arrest for leaving her child home alone will be brought up. So what do I expect from Draya? DRAMA
Imani--*scratches head* I dont know who she is. She's pretty much irrelevant. The only thing that I can tell you about Imani from tonight's show is that she was engaged to a dude for 9 years and never got married. Here we go with this storyline again. Didnt we see this with Evelyn? What is up with chicks being engaged to these dudes for decades and ish? Who does that? Better yet who does it and goes on national television and says it. I'm not expecting anything from Imani either. We shall see
Tonya- *sigh* I dont know about Tonya either. She's the educated, classy, Iyanla Vanzant chick. She does not seem like the type of person who will throw a punch so I dont know how relevant she'll be on this type of show. *shrugs* We shall see. I mean her husband is Jayson Williams*shrugs again* Moving on...
Kimsha-- When you're the exwife of Ron Artest aka Metta World Peace you have to be interesting. I'm just saying ... dude is a bit strange. His exwife .... well she is .... interesting. I'll say that. The chick is hood as hell and she has an obsession with assholes and shit. Seriously how many times did she reference both? Quite a few O_o Kimsha seems like the type of chick who will punch you in your throat for looking at her wrong. Thats what she seems like. Time will tell if she is actually that chick or just another water thrower
Malaysia--Should I refer to her as Malaysia or Lakeisha. Homegirl has a hood as name and an attitude to match. Everyone dislikes Malaysia and after watching 60 minutes of the show, I still can not figure out why. She reminds me so much of Gloria Govan's character on BBWs Miami. What I loved the most about Malaysia is that homegirl is not afraid to throw a punch. She's like a little bit of Tami mixed with a little bit of Royce mixed with a little bit of Jennifer mixed with a little bit of Evelyn. She's all over the place. One thing about Malaysia is that those colored contacts must go. Those dont fly. Other than that she seems "likeable" *shrugs*
So I'm looking forward to this season. Are you watching? Whatcha think?
