Basketball Wives LA
 

Hot...damn...mess. Embarassing...hot...damn...mess.

The producers picked up on the Basketball Wives vibe and EXAGGERATED it. I can see why Shaunie O'Neal is dismissing the LA Basketball Wives.

I'm still watching it, though. :p It's amusing and LaLa's Full Court Life (I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!) is on next.

:rolleyes: @ Gloria from Basketball Wives being on this show

:rolleyes: @ Gloria's sister being on this show

:rolleyes: @ them being mad at the woman with the blonde dreds for speaking proper English.

"What's up with that?! What's up with that?! Just say it ghetto...."

:rolleyes: These women want to fuss and fight because they think people are acting like they are superior? Have they never been around Black people who speak different than they do?

I agree with the blonde dred woman when she said "...but to be malign because I do not speak the current lingo and the urban slang...."

LOL. I was happy when Malaysia physically went at the woman who said "just say it ghetto." You don't have to fuss and fight all of the time but EVERYONE has their limit. Get her, Malaysia.

Hot Mess! They start off fighting. I just can't understand why the wives (those who are really wives) would even want to be associated with the show after the original BW trainwreck; especially Tanya with the blonde locs. I would think she wouldn't want to be anywhere near that mess.

Also I think the girls mostly don't like Tanya because she always has advice for everyone and talks too much, not necessarily because she speaks "proper" English although that might be part of it for some of them. Doug Christie's wife (forget her name) was wrong for coming at her though.

I will watch for the hilarity of it all but this show will be another trainwreck. I can't understand why grown ass women (older women at that) would want to do such a show. Also, why did Laura (3 weeks post pregnancy and looking a mess not because she's bigger but because she doesn't know what to wear now) want to be on the show. You couldn't pay me to be on TV looking a mess but then you couldn't pay me to be on a reality show anyway. I'm too private and actually care about looking like a fool.

Malaysia IS ghetto fabulous though (not saying anything is wrong with that). Her name is not even really Malaysia...LOL!

lol @ Tanya calmly typing on her blackberry while Malaysia and Laura are fighting around her.

Never thought I'd long for the regular basketball wives, but The LA Basketball Wives are just trying too hard.

Let's run it down:

Tanya, please give Iylana Van Sant (sp) her act back.

Why is Malaysia getting all the "hate?" A step above regular, she just looked and acted like a reformed hood rate from Compton. (and memo to her hood cousin with the tatoo plastered in between her already enormous breasts. As Evelyn would say: no, boo.)

The hefty girl that had just had a baby 3 months ago:
-first off, do not rock tight t-shirts until you get your body back
-your hormones have not returned to normal levels. No reason for you to go across the table at Malaysia.

Kimsha, if you are that HAM for New York, then go back to NY. I thought she was extremely course in her decorum and delivery..and that's saying something in this crew

Jackie, who appeared to be the oldest, was the most childest-acting. not a good look.

Now, Imani Showalter, acted about the same as the rest, but she is as beautiful as the day is long. She could get it.

If they can make a tivo that just alerts me when Imani is on-screen, I may watch. otherwise, it'll be hit and miss. (like it isn't 15 other things I need to be doing rather than wasting an hour watching this.)

Mess, mess, and more mess.

Jackie Christie is a nut...but she's been crazy a long time. I can't believe these wives/boos and MOTHERS are on tv acting this way. They are doing the most. :(

The best way to stop them is for us to stop watching and therefore getting these shows canceled. In the meantime.....:p

Uh-unh. As long as lovely Imani, inane though she may be, is on a tv screen near me I'm likely in front of it.

As long as she keeps her mouth closed, she's most yummy. :D

Laura gave birth just 3 weeks (not months) ago in the episode. She must be desperate to be on TV because it wouldn't be me.

One word can describe the L.A. version of B-Ball wives: *In my Lionel Ritchie voice* OUTRAGIOUS!!!!!

So when I miss episodes (I definitely will) it will be your job to let us know what we missed. :D Thanks!!!!

I hear ya, Mr. Ritchie! :)

Oh my Lord, ... it took me a minute, but I had to compose my thoughts about these women. They are all so complex ...

Did you see that, too?!?! That was friggin' hilarious. For one, I think Tanya is beautiful inside and out. Despite how they tried to clown her, she is the only one around there who didn't waste her time taking shots at others. She has the wisdom that the rest of these silly women are not interested in hearing. Why? Because they WANT to be ignorant heffas who keep up a lot of drama for the cameras. They don't want anyone to help them see things from a more loving perspective because they will become a show that is BORING. So, kudos to Tanya for being who she is. :)

I'm not so sure why most of them are hating on Malaysia. She's a cutie, but she looks vaguely familiar to me. I remember a girl on some talk show from years ago who proposed to a male stripper because she was madly in love with him, and he had no idea who she was. Why that was even in my mental roladex is beyond me, but I never forgot it and Malaysia looks just like that girl.

I remember Jackie from some OTHER reality show, where she was obsessed with her marriage or something. I can't remember what that show was, but I remember her being crazy as hell.

Gloria, ... ~sigh~ whatever.

And, for someone to have gained 84 pounds before their pregnancy, Laura looks darn good. But 3-weeks post pregnancy is still a bit too soon for her to be doing this show, in my opinion. She needs to continue recuperating.

Imani seems like a real sweetheart, but tends to sort of go in whatever direction the masses go in.

I'm particularly interested in seeing how things will play out with Draya, who looks just like one of those chicks that will break up your home. ~yikes~ This should be interesting.

And, what the hell kinda name is Kimsha??? I thought I only saw that kind of stuff down here in the south. :rolleyes: She seems so abrasive, and almost ... I don't know ... DRUNK when she does her little interview/confessions or whatever they call it. If she didn't want to be there, WHY IS SHE THERE?!?! :confused:

Oh, ... um, ... soooooooo ... THIS is Draya. :o Oh, my ... I had no idea this was the girlfriend of Chris Brown who was arrested earlier this year for endangering her child ... :confused:

Just finished watching this.

I agree with everyone else that these women are trying too hard. I know "drama" is par for the course, but some of these arguments were completely unnecessary.

That being said, I'll be watching this season :p
