Today, I saw a full episode of Basketball Wives LA for the first time...and I was NOT impressed, and that's putting it....nicely
These women, who are suppose to be grown, ganging up on one of the younger girls, Draya. Why? So what she had a past and she used to dance? Who cares! Who are THEY to judge someone? And why does she constantly have to explain and prove herself to them?!
In case you didnt know or can't tell, I am NOT a fan of reality TV. Never got into any of the dating shows, the real world shows, the Jersey shore shows, not even any of the wedding shows. I can count on both hands how many times I actually sat and watched a full episode of any reality TV show...
Anywhooooo
You have these "wives" who portray nothing but drama and negativity in the light....I can't believe the way these women carry on on national television and how they carry themselves...
They are pathetic...and how their husbands actually deal with this BS and allow it to go on is beyond me, because their wife is a direct representation of them, and if the wives arent putting out a good representation....no need for me to go any further...
Just think about it, seriously for a minute, those who are really successful and have nothing to prove, don't have these reality tv shows....the chances of you ever seeing Denzel's wife, or Jada, or even Kobe's Wife, or Lebron spouse on such a show is very very very slim.
I mean LaLa (Carmelo Anthony's wife) has her own show, but it is NOTHING like these shows and her husband is actually a current somebody...all of these wives on this shows, their husbands are "role players" to say the least...yeah they play on a time, but their husband isnt the SUPER STAR or hell even THE STAR...
Do these women need to be in the spotlight that bad? Are they hurting for money that much? These shows are low balls to me.
But hey, this is only MY opinion on MY blog....
To sum it all up,
Gloria, how dare you say you don't want to be associated with anyone like Draya who would do something like that to a child, when you're in a domestic violent relationship? Your husband beats you in front of your kids. I think that's more damaging for people to hear about that you having a friendship with Draya.
Laura, why are you on here? Because you're Gloria's sister or because you fucked Shaq? Either one, you're a "non effing factor boo boo" *in Evelyn voice* You're not relevant....go google that!
Kim isnt on there anymore, thank God she opened her eyes!
Imani, you're a former basketball wife, you're marriage is over, and everyone knows....so why are you on the show? Go find a man, make that your focus esp since you are talking about possible marriage...go sit down
Malaysia, actually isnt half bad. She's starting her own jewelry line for kids, kudos to you mama! But who you hang with is a reflection of you, so drop the negative Nancy's and nay sayers, you don't need their negative light outshining your positive one.
Jackie, wouldn't be so bad, if she wasn't so phony. One minute you dislike Draya and you're judging her and saying she needs her ass whooped when you're not in front of her, but when you're in front of her, its a different story. And every episode it seems you have a problem with someone....maybe if you are having issues with everyone else, its not everyone else, its you...maybe take a season off and use that as a time to do some self reflection.
Draya, who are these women to you? Effing nobodies! You dont have to prove yourself to them. So what you did some shitty stuff in the past, unlike most of them, you are young and still learning. You will be fine. But you don't need the negativity in your life either. I know it's very draining. Focus on moving forward and making positive decisions. You don't have to answer to anyone about your past that isnt talking about putting a damn ring on your finger or blocking the gates for you to get to heaven, meaning your future husband or God, and these women are neither! Hello! *snaps fingers*
Four out of the six that's still on the show, are washed up haters! VH1 if yall want to give shows to just anyone, trust and believe, I have better ideas and more positive ones, ones that WON'T cast African American females in a negative light....if you are looking for something better!
Who runs LA? None of them that's for damn sure!
