Jackie Christie Of Basketball Wives LA To Be Fired

Posted byBy Popular Critic | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Gloria and sister Laura Govan may have gotten Jackie Christie fired from the second season of Basketball Wives Los Angeles. After the season finale of the LA franchise Jackie was a complete outcast from the group. Taping has began on season two and time apart didn’t do much to bring the ladies any closer.

Sources are stating that Gloria and Laura are leading the pack of women who refuse to film with Jackie.

“…NO ONE wants to TAPE with Jackie. Because of her crazy antics last year the girls are on to her. The people who really don’t like Crazy Jackie …………THE GOVANS. Word is that allegedly the pair of sisters cant stand her loony ass. OOOHH NOOO!”

Perhaps Jackie and her husband of 17 years Doug Christie can work on a spinoff of their own. The couple have held steadfast to their tradition of renewing their vows on each anniversary. Their 17th anniversay renewal ceremony was held at Eleven nightclub, a gay club.

As we celebrate 17 years of marriage, it weighs heavy on our hearts that the same love shared by many of our friends is considered “less than” and is not widely recognized due to antiquated laws, lack of acceptance, and misperceptions, among other discriminatory factors.

Will you watch the second season of Basektball Wives LA?

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.
