Evelyn Lozada Of Basketball Wives Lands Spinoff With Chad Ochocinco

Basketball Wives star Evelyn Lozada will return for season 4 and film her spin off with fiance Chad Ochocinco! In early September Evelyn revealed via Twitter that she was quitting Basketball Wives after VH1 released a blog post that implied she cheated on her fiance Chad with his friend Terrell Owens. The threat didn’t last long but TMZ has uncovered that Evelyn signed a new deal to secure her return. According to sources, Evelyn has received a raise (this is her second raise since threatening to quit before Season 3) but will shoot less scenes!

Evelyn has also told VH1 upfront she won’t miss any of Chad Ochocinco’s games plus she wants to shoot around her daughter’s schedule. The latter is little suspicious because her daughter is in college in California….

Evelyn’s wheeling and dealing didn’t end there, she reportedly snagged a spin off with fiance Chad Ochocinco! The spinoff will follow the months leading up to Chad and Evelyn’s summer wedding.

The year 2011 is wrapping up to be a great year for Evelyn who also landed an endorsement with a lip gloss company and a multi book deal with Cash money. Looks like Evelyn’s positioning herself to become the breadwinner in the relationship. 😉

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
