Fans Blast Malaysia Pargo After She’s Spotted Smiling with Jennifer Williams, Later Hits Cast Mate with the ‘Diddy Crop’

An event Jennifer Williams threw recently seems to have brought many of the “Basketball Wives” cast together, including foe Malaysia Pargo, who was all smiles as she posed next to Williams at the latter’s sip and shop.

Williams hosted the launch of her first brick-and-mortar store for her Classy Girl Wardrobe line on Wednesday, May 1 at Beverly Muse in Los Angeles. The event was put on in honor of Williams’ mother, who died in 2015 after battling cancer.

“I’m still smiling from the overwhelming support I received last night,” Williams said in part on Instagram following the event, which saw Pargo along with co-stars Evelyn Lozada, Kristen Scott and Ogom “O.G.” Chijindu in attendance.

Viewers will recall in season 7 of the VH1 reality series that Pargo became so fed up with Williams, who was presented as showing up unannounced to a group trip to Amsterdam, that she threw a table her way.

“You’ve been lying from day one,” Pargo said of Williams denying she disparaged Lozada’s daughter. “Since I’m f—ing talking I might as well say it all. You’re a f—ing hater, b—!”

She announced, “I’ll take the penitentiary chances” before hurling the outdoor seating furniture in the direction of Williams, who was not hurt in the matter but later revealed security personnel were injured.

The recent picture of the two had fans puzzled.

“I’m starting to think reality tv is 100% made up. Did she not throw a whole ass table at Jennifer last season and now they all smiles!?”

“She did all the flipping tables just to be right back w/ the woman 🤦🏾‍♂️”

“Ain’t no way I be friends with somebody about to throw a table at me I will forgive you but I am not being your friend no no.”

However, a day later, Pargo posted another pic with her, Lozada and Williams, but Williams was cropped out. In fact, all that was left was her ponytail, which left fans in stitches. The caption read “A picture is worth a 1000 words…”

“I laughed so hard at this when Malaysia posted this that crop took me tf out 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂”

“So we gon act like we dont see Jennifer ponytail hanging on for dear life in this crop out???????🤭🤭🤭”

“Malaysia did the diddy crop 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂”

Lozada also reposted the same image on her Instagram page with the painting nails emoji 💅🏾 .

Williams had previously expressed her desire to leave “Basketball Wives” but she noted contractual obligations may require her to give it another shot.

“I honestly would like to move forward in my life,” she said on “The Breakfast Club” last year. “I still am under contract, so I don’t know what’s gonna happen. I do know that allegedly the production company got fired, so I don’t know what’s gonna [happen] with the show, but I just want to move forward.”

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.
