Shaunie O’Neal Gives The Impression She Is Clueless About Evelyn Lozada’s Announced Departure From Basketball Wives

"Basketball Wives" producer, Shaunie O’Neal, made an appearance on the Wendy Williams Show and seemed to be denying all responsibility for the content of the contentious, sexually charged show, by stating she has simply brought women of different types together (also known as a pimp). That's like saying you brought several tigers together, let them loose, but you are somehow not responsible for the damage that ensued. Give it up, Shaunie Springer. This is your fault.

On another note, O'Neal denies all knowledge of costar, Evelyn Lozada, leaving "Basketball Wives." O'Neal said Lozada told her no such thing (uh, but she told everybody else on Twitter - check your timeline). It gives the impression that Lozada's announcement was another publicity stunt for ratings to see if she will come back and more money, via another salary increase. She received a raise last time she threw the same tantrum. Either way, she is the star of the show.

Evelyn Lozada

I'll give the women on the show credit, they are all naturally pretty and that's something money can't buy, because Hollywood has some freak shows of bad plastic surgery, bad hairdos, bad make-up and bad clothes running around. These women have their look together. While it is refreshing to see women on television, whose faces are not jacked from bad plastic surgery, there is too much fighting and cussing on "Basketball Wives." Some may like it, but some do not.

I saw a clip of "Basketball Wives LA" yesterday, which had a fight scene and I must state, it looked very staged. It appeared rehearsed. These ladies are not professional actresses, so the contrived fighting for ratings showed.

As much as producer Shaunie O’Neal claims she dislikes the fighting on her show, stating it is not what the series is about, I find that very hard to believe. Admit it, you are the female Jerry Springer of reality television.

Will the forthcoming marriage of NFL football player, Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson and "Basketball Wives" reality star, Evelyn Lozada last or end in disaster. In the profane season finale of "Basketball Wives" Ochocinco bristled when Lozada flew into a rage, after witnessing the athlete having lunch at a restaurant in Miami with a mystery woman. I thought she was going to knock him out then and there. She was furious.

Evelyn Lozada

Ochocinco stated he is an open individual, unwilling to change his life of being a people person, but Lozada is carrying baggage from her last relationship with NBA athlete, Antoine Walker, who reportedly cheated on her. As a result, Lozada is concerned the same will happen with Ochocinco.

Evelyn Lozada and daughter Shanice

All over the world, regardless of the culture, women relentlessly pursue wealthy athletes, due to the fame and lavish living that comes with being in such a relationship. But it has its downside as well - namely infidelity. Will the Ochocinco Lozada union, if it gets off the ground, suffer the same. Regardless, the show's producer, Shaunie O'Neal will be there to capture the marriage and any angry eruptions, all for ratings.

Drink Throwing Couple Attack Each Other

"Basketball Wives" cast

The current season of VH-1's "Basketball Wives" ended on a bad note, with Jennifer Williams, wife of retired NBA player, Eric Williams, throwing a drink on the back of his shirt as he walked away. He momentarily returned and forcefully threw a glass of alcohol in her face, which was a direct hit.

Shaunie O'Neal

However, due to producer Shaunie O'Neal only releasing a selectively edited clip of the incident last week, people did not get the full story. Not that it changes the Judiciary Report's view that Eric Williams went too far. He also provoked his soon to be ex-wife, at least if she has her way, in calling her "nothing" and stating no one will want her in three years when she turns 40. He's getting older as well, which makes said comment all the more ironic.

Tami Roman

Turning 40 does not make a woman unattractive. Look at Halle Berry, she's 44-years of age and putting women in their 20s to shame. Same goes for model Christie Brinkley, who is in her 50s. If one takes care of one's self, there's no reason one cannot look gorgeous at any age.

Eric Williams throws drink on Jennifer Williams

Jennifer Williams was wrong to throw a drink at her husband, but his behavior was worse and sparked the incident to begin with. It's a shame they couldn't work out the problems in their marriage. In the beginning of the series, it seemed as if he couldn't wait for her to call the divorce lawyer, but then it reversed.

Warning: Graphic Language

Jennifer Williams found someone else, had a very cruel divorce party with a mean cake, featuring a confectionery version of herself, holding Eric Williams' severed. She also began stabbing an item on the cake representing her husband's genitals. Yes, he did cheat on her, which is wrong, but her conduct at the party was overkill, especially with her new, younger boyfriend.

Someone is not content with tormenting the NBA with the frequently sued reality show "Basketball Wives" which is based in Miami, Florida. The show's producer, Shaunie O'Neal, ex-wife of retired NBA basketball player, Shaquille O'Neal, has decided to return to her native California and release a spin off of the show titled "Basketball Wives LA."

"Basketball Wives" cast

It is set to debut this month and most likely with the same Jerry Springer style antics as the original. I hate to call it that, as "Basketball Wives" is a very derivative version of "The Real Housewives" reality series by Bravo and follows the exact same business plan, via city spin-offs.

"Basketball Wives" cast members Shanice, her mom, Evelyn Lozada and Jennifer Williams

As the Judiciary Report predicted, well before the ratings revealed it to be so, "Basketball Wives" (4.3 million viewers) has surpassed "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" (4 million viewers) in the ratings and press (Has "Basketball Wives" Topped "The Real Housewives Of Atlanta"). Too bad the content is so low brow.

Now that reality TV star, Kim Kardashian, is set to marry NBA basketball player, Kris Humphries, will she join Shaunie O'Neal's program "Basketball Wives." The more likely question is, would Kardashian survive "Basketball Wives" after Tami Roman punches her in the mouth, dislodging her silicone.

O'Neal's show is getting to be like a weekly boxing match, with people getting knocked out, left, right and center, by reigning champ, Roman (boo, put the alcohol down, before you beat everybody on the show, cast and crew).

Tami Roman

Of course I'm not being serious with this article, but admit it, the thought of Kardashian hauling butt from Roman was funny. Hands down, Roman would win the fight (doesn't she win every fight on that show).

Shaunie O'Neal

Well, well, well! I remember in February 2011, when the Judiciary Report published an article stating the reality show Basketball Wives "makes black women look bad" (Shaunie Stirring The Doo Doo In The NBA). Shortly after, Shaunie O'Neal, a part time Miami resident, did an interview upset that it was said the show "makes black women look bad" (Is Evelyn Lozada About To Stab Shaunie O'Neal In The Back For Her Own Show). It was bite off the blogger's head time. But here we have it, several months later, in an interview conducted days ago, O'Neal stated she is embarrassed by the show and its Jerry Springer type tactics, particularly the fighting:

“When I started the show I really just wanted to follow this group of ladies around. We all have a common bond; we understand each other’s lives. It started as that. Since then, it’s taken on a life of its own. I never imagined it would be a group of ladies fighting and arguing that way that they do. That was never part of the plan.”

“I hate that it has to be a fight or an argument that gives us 4.2 million viewers. I hate that, but it’s something where I’m working as hard as I can to show some type of balance, because it is there. We do know how to act, we do charity work. I would love a little more balance and we’re going to try to do more of that in season 4. I know that people love the fighting and the arguing, but I do want to have some positive in there somewhere.”

“I feel like that show, from what I hear in certain production calls and stuff like that, is turning into ‘I have slept with a basketball player at some point of time in my life, so now I’m on Basketball Wives’. That’s definitely not what I brought to the table and not what I would be proud of having my name on. I think that’s a whole different show that I wouldn’t produce. A change needs to be made somewhere in these reality shows. If I can be the start, I would to be a start in showing some balances.”

"Basketball Wives" cast members Shanice, her mom, Evelyn Lozada and Jennifer Williams

When one contrasts "Basketball Wives" with shows in its genre, such as "Braxton Family Values" which is not a fight fest, it becomes apparent that one does not have to resort to such tactics to gain viewers. In fact, the Braxton sisters stated, initially their show was not picked up by a few other networks, because they refused to get into fist fights on camera, stating they do not do that.

Report: Shaunie Cheated On Shaq O'Neal With A Music Promoter That Extorted Him

Shaquille O'Neal and Shaunie O'Neal

A police report regarding the arrest of seven Los Angeles Crip gang members has revealed, basketball player, Shaquille O'Neal, was being extorted by music promoter Robert Ross. O'Neal and Ross share the same business manager, Mark Stevens. The report is apart of an ongoing investigation, for which O'Neal is being questioned.

Crip gang member, Ladell Rowles, allegedly lead a group of six men, who ambushed Ross at a gas station, surrounding his Rolls Royce with guns. He was forced to Rowles' home, where he was beaten into revealing the alleged location of a sex tape featuring O'Neal and women, he'd brought to Ross' home to conduct affairs, while he was married to "Basketball Wives" star, Shaunie O'Neal (nee Nelson).

Ross informed O'Neal he had secretly filmed the basketball player in his home and was holding a sex tape of his affairs, which is illegal under U.S. and international law, as spying on or surreptitiously filming people, especially in a state of undress, is a serious crime.

Ross also alleges he told O'Neal he has been having an affair with his wife, Shaunie. According to Ross, Shaq had Shaunie followed by a private investigator, who confirmed the affair to the basketball player.

This mean Shaunie cheated with a music promoter, a Miami trainer ten years her junior and according to what I was told, an attorney as well. Since the time of her divorce, Shaunie's main boyfriend has been 23-year-old model, Marlon Yates. Yes, she likes them young.
