‘Basketball Wives’ Fans Won’t Let Up on Jennifer Williams Over Her Remarks About Evelyn Lozada’s Daughter

Days after the epic season finale of “Basketball Wives” aired, Jennifer Williams continues to face scrutiny over her actions.

During the Sunday, Sept. 9 episode, Williams was confronted by Malaysia Pargo for making negative comments about Evelyn Lozada’s daughter, Shanice.

According to Pargo, Williams said that Shanice has been doing “the grown up … having sex with anybody around Miami” since “forever.” Pargo added that Williams reaffirmed what Jackie Christie had said in a prior season — that Shaniece is a “build a whore” — and that her “body’s not real … [it’s] fake.”

Williams never owned up to making those statements in the finale, even when Lozada asked her directly.

“I love Shaniece,” Williams stammered to Lozada.

Fans who caught the episode have not let up on going after Williams, who got a table tossed at her, days after it aired.

“I’m about my business… Bossin’ in Blush dress is available on @classygirlwardrobe now!! #AllThingsClassy 💋,” Williams said in the caption of an Instagram photo Wednesday, Sept. 12.

“Basketball Wives” viewers weren’t here for it, however, and they wasted no time digging into Williams for her remarks about Shaniece.

“It’s pretty, but you is foul AF.”

“I use to like u Jennifer, not anymore, u lie, when it comes to Evelyn, I’m Bronx all day that’s my girl for life, u so wrong, don’t f— with her kids yo, u sorry, if it was me I u would’ve got punched in your face.”

“You need to admit what you said. Your f—ing lying ass snake. U need to be fired again!!!”

Even still, there were some fans who were in her corner.

“F– them Jenn they was [def] hating on u cause u look 20times better [than] Tami and big forehead Malaysia. She is bragging about growing up with 50 cousins there for it all day. No wonder she’s so miserable and angry … Fighting every day, all day. Tag with the angry person and that’s why she’s so angry and hateful and mean because she can’t stand to see something so innocent and pretty.”

“I’m on ur side girl bye u don’t need fake ass friends f— that whole crew I like Evelyn we from the same hood and she mad bcz u shoulda just said, ‘I said some things too but I never meant it, I … was angry.’ That’s it. Clear ur s— up. But I it’s cool move on now mama.”

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.
