Basketball Wives: Evelyn Lozada Reveals Shaunie O'Neal Conflict

UPDATE-Basketball Wives season 4 continues to shed more light on Evelyn Lozada’s relationship with Jennifer. While VH1 is hoping to maximize every ounce of drama over the broken relationship many fans have slammed the show for appearing too scripted. In the sneak peak below the dialogue between Shaunie O’Neal, Tami Roman and Evelyn makes it hard to imagine this is how late 30 something year old women deal with conflict. It’s even more puzzling when you consider there was once a 10 to 12 year friendship between the two yet it wasn’t enough to resolve what appears to be a petty fallout.

Despite it all Chad Ochocinco‘s fiance is taking it all in strides as the lead of the show even though she believes Jenn is the one growing a big head.

“In the first episode, they talked about her being ‘bougie.’ When you are that person and you get a little bit of fame, you start believing the hype. She thinks she is better than everyone else,” says Evelyn to RadarOnline.

Other than the drawn out drama the biggest surprise may come courtesy of executive producer Shaunie.

“Shaunie actually gets into a conflict with one of the castmates; she’s usually quiet and stays out of the mess. She did have an issue with one of the ladies on the show, and I think viewers will be surprised that she voiced that and who that person ended up being.” This should be interesting to say the least.

Basketball Wives episode 2 airs tonight at 8pm on VH1

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
