So, season 2 of “Basketball Wife, Girlfriends and Exes” premiered this past Sunday on VH1. It was very entertaining. I’ve always said that though. The season started high with drama. You have Evelyn and Suzie getting into it. Evelyn’s just NOW realizing that Suzie is messy. SMH. It’s funny though, Suzie told Royce that Evelyn leaked her own pictures. My thoughts are; she probably did. She’s an attention whore. She’s in the right profession for it though, so…get it how you live.
Jen is still at a stand-still in her relationship. One thing that stood out to me was that she was trying to reach her husband (Eric Williams, retired NBA player) and couldn’t. She called a few times and got no answer, couldn’t leave a message because his inbox was full and had to send him a text. Like, WTF? That was strange. Why do you have to approach him like a groupie? Shouldn’t he be checking on you? That’s too much.
Shaunie is still pimping these chics. That’s fine-living right there. She comes on the show, gets all the ladies in the same room, nods her head—never sharing her own personal experiences—and orchestrates chaos. The entrepreneur in me is impressed. The feminist in me is appalled.
Royce still has the same down-to-earth feel about her. She’s still humble. Her facial expressions are hilarious: she clearly still enjoys seeing these women go through what they go through. I love that she’s not tainted. She’s dating and appears to be really happy. Good for her.
They’ve introduced a [few] new characters to the show, one of them being Tami. She’s down-to-earth in a rough kind of way. It’s crazy because I really don’t think these women realize how fake they are. I think what most people call fake, trifling, etc. they call living. I don’t what would possess Shaunie to tell the other women that this ex-basketball wife (Fa real, she was actually married) had been on food stamps before. This was clearly something told to her in confidence. Then, as soon as the lady gets up from the table, they start talking shit. Now, I’m not gonna lie, she did look cheap as hell when she met up with them: seriously, I think she had a tan fanny pack covering her waist, some jeans from the 80s and a recycled knit jacket on. BUT, how quickly they forget that looking like a million bucks, they’re still broken in spirit, character and emotionally-wrecked. They’re really not that different from each other.
It appears that later on in the show Tami will put hands on Evelyn. I’m sure the crowd—myself included— will go wild.
Most of them still seem to be twiddling their thumbs instead of finding something to do with their time, Jen especially. Evelyn’s store (Dulce) continues to be empty. SMH.
If you haven’t watched it, turn to VH1, I’m sure they’re showing it every hour on the hour or go to www.vh1.com
‘Til next time! Y’all be easy.
Live. Love. Laugh.
