Posted byBy Popular Critic | Published on: | Updated on July 12, 2013 CommentsComments (1)

The real Basketball Wives and girlfriends are in London. Dwyane Wade’s longtime girlfriend Gabrielle Union, LeBron James’ fiance Savannah Brinson, Carmelo Anthony’s wife La La Anthony, James Harden rumored girlfriend rapper Trina, and Kevin Durant’s rumored girlfriend LeToya Luckett were all taking in the Olympics and cheering on their respective significant others (minus Gabrielle, D-Wade opted out of Team USA due to injury)

Trina posted an image with Gabby, Savannah and La La on instagram while The Cosby Show alum Keisha Knight Pulliam, who doesn’t have any connection to a baller, posted the other with LeToya.

Good to see the ladies taking time out to support their significant others during an event that’s special to them.

In other Olympic news, 400M Gold medalist Sanya Richards Ross and her husband, two time Superbowl champ, Aaron Ross just snagged their own reality show!
According to Deadline,

It was shot in Austin before Richards-Ross left for London and offers an insider’s look at her rigorous training regime as well as her personal life. Richards-Ross is married to two-time Super Bowl champion Aaron Ross who just signed a 3-year $15 million contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The reality series reveals the often intense rivalry between the hyper competitive couple. (Ross was in the stands on Sunday cheering on his wife with her parents when she won the Olympic gold.) The TV project also provides a behind-the-scenes look at Richard-Ross’ inner circle that includes her mother Sharon acting as her agent, her father Archie working as her manager and her sister Shari as her business partner.

Sanya and Aaron appear to be a loving and supportive couple – fingers cross they don’t fall prey to the reality TV show curse on couples!

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.
