For Women Who Want The Ballerific Life!
One of the world's most well known Basketball Wives, executive producer
Shaunie O'Neal is a force to be reckoned with. Beautiful, confident,
ambitious, and compassionate are only a few adjectives that can describe
this devoted mother of five, who began her career in film marketing.
Shaunie's goal with her series was to shed light on the complex lives of
the women who stand beside these larger-than-life professional athletes
and to show that it's not all glitz and glamour. An emerging
entrepreneur set to launch her own shoe line, as well as a
philanthropist who dedicates her spare time to helping others
(especially women and children) Shaunie shines both on and off the
screen. Having been married to one of the most famous basketball players
of all time, Shaquille O'Neal, Shaunie is Queen Bee to the rest of the
wives, who swarm to her for advice and guidance.
RoyceRoyce has been in the spotlight nearly her entire life. Born and raised
in Orlando loving all things sports, she is a former gymnast,
competitive cheerleader, and dancer for professional basketball teams in
both Miami and Orlando. Recently she started her own Burlesque Dance
Company Fantashique which travels all over Florida. The only thing more
colorful than her Fantashique dance moves is her personality. She is a
firecracker, a strong-minded, driven woman who is no stranger to
confrontation. While she's a sweetheart most of the time, Royce can turn
it on in a hot second and rarely bites her tongue. In the future, she
looks forward to pursuing her acting career, finding a new man, and
mixing with the rest of the basketball wives. Her hardest task with the
other wives will be debunking the negative stereotype that the wives
have against team dancers.
JenniferJennifer "Red Carpet" Williams is no stranger to the highlife having
grown up in South Orange, NJ, an upscale suburb just outside of New York
City. So it didn't surprise many when she ended up marrying a wealthy
and successful professional basketball player, Eric Williams, whom she
first met in 2000. Her glitzy lifestyle extends into her professional
life in being a high-end real estate agent and wildly successful
business owner of the upscale women's work out company Flirty Girl
Fitness. Behind all the bling, however, Jennifer supports several
charities and even founded Project Save the World to help fight several
different causes. Jennifer keeps her friends close and guards them
viciously. Her mercurial relationship with hubby Eric shows the unique
challenges and hard work it takes to be the wife of a professional
basketball player.
SuzieNo party in Miami really begins until Suzie Ketcham arrives. Having
lived in New Jersey, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, and now Miami, Suzie is
connected all across the country and is the social butterfly of the
basketball wives. She met professional basketball player Michael
Olowokondi while attending college at Pepperdine University and was
pregnant with their first child her senior year in college. They would
have two wonderful children and be together for 10 years before finally
splitting. Having been with an athlete for that long, Suzie knows the
ins and outs of the "game" and is extremely protective and loyal to her
friends. If she senses that one of her ladies is being attacked, she'll
be the first girl on the scene ready to have their back. Now, fresh off
her break up, Suzie has her eyes set on her multiple charities, her
amazing children, her luxury real estate agent ambitions, and of course,
tackling the nightclub scene with her best group of basketball wives.
EvelynEvelyn Lozada was born in Brooklyn, raised in the boogie-down Bronx and
is always in a New York state of mind. Raised solely by her mother, this
Puerto Rican beauty always aspired to break out of her relatively small
world and always dreamt of something bigger and better. Evelyn had her
first taste of the entertainment world when she took a job as an
assistant to a well known entertainment attorney to the stars and would
eventually meet and become engaged to the basketball star, Antoine
Walker. Evelyn moved to her adopted hometown of Miami in 2007 and now
co-owns Dulce (and dulceshoes.net) an upscale shoe boutique located in
Coral Gables, Florida. Dulce now allows Evelyn to live out her childhood
dreams of fashion. In addition to being a socialite that supports many
charitable causes, Evelyn takes great pride in being a devoted mother
and businesswoman. She is highly regarded as a fashionista and style
trendsetter. Even before she founded Dulce, Evelyn was photographed not
just because of ex-fiancé's game, but because of her own impressive
"shoe game".
GloriaThrough her sister, who was a highly touted basketball player, at the
age of only 12 years old, Gloria Govan would meet the man whom she will
soon marry, Matt Barnes. After several years apart, Matt and Gloria
would reconnect when he played near Gloria's hometown of Oakland. The
two fell madly in love and now have twin 16-month-old boys. At the young
age of 24, aside from planning the upcoming wedding of her dreams,
Gloria is also focused with businesses outside of basketball and is
heavily involved in several charities including Matt's very own Athletes
Vs Cancer. Her storybook relationship always seems to be questioned by
the rest of the women who feel that it's maybe "too" perfect to be true.
Her hardest task is fitting in with the rest of the women who are
several years older and who constantly question her naïveté. Whether she
even cares what the others think is another matter!

I'm mad they call her plastic surgery but she does look like she's been pulled WAY too much. #sorrytosay
I actually think Jennifer is really pretty but her attitude is stank and those contacts needs to go. I love her style, tho. Very feminine, clean lines with a just the right amount of flare and color.
Now, I see why Royce acts so young. It's a mental thing. She doesn't see herself as a grown ass woman. She looks at herself as this young cutsie girl and thus, acts that way.
Are Suzie's veneers too big or something?
Evelyn comes off as EXTREMELY unhappy. :( Time heals all wounds..and hopefully her attitude.
Permalink Reply by Miss Double Kiss on April 28, 2010 at 5:38pm Finally got to watch all current episodes and of course, I found something wrong with everyone,LOL. But I can't stand Eve and the tall dark bouge one, I think her name is Jennifer. And who was that one that looked like she was retarded? The one on the episode where they are at some party and she charges up the "groupie"? The white chick with black hair and sound like mush mouth? Also, It pissed me off when they went to Gloria's house for dinner and the way they were talking like we don't like her but we are going to make an effort. B**** pleazzze! And you could tell the girl husband didn't like their azzes and straight up said don't come try to influence his gal, LOL! Also on the cool he was telling them don't start no s*** when they brought up the cheating and NFL. You could tell their noses were stuck up in the air like they were queens on a throne or something. And who the hell is engaged for ten years! Maaannn, there is no such thing, never will be such a thing, and if you stupid enough to believe that for 10 years you were engaged to someone (SMH, while LOL) I see why he left your stupid azz cause obviously you are not that smart and he knew it!

Honey, you are a grown woman with a child start acting and dressing as such. I remember when I was 28 or 29 there was no way that my everyday attire was jeans and tennis shoes. Come on grow up!
Evelyn - Cannot wrap my mind around the fact she continued to stay with AWalker and he did not marry her esp. when her girl Jennifer was married and living the good life with EWilliams.
Suzie - Uhummm....is she even relevant? Her life story mirrors Evelyn with a baller for 10years and not married. Enough said........for now:-)
Gloria - Girl please wake up. Matt is a good guy, but, do not put the others down because they did lived the life you are FINALLY LIVING ; and just like Matt; AWalker and EWilliams said they loved Evelyn and Jennifer as well...look where both of those ladies are now. I am not saying do not trust your man; however, be real about your life. Besides, Gloria come on YOUR sister may have slept with Shaq and she is pregnant with another BBaller baby.

Permalink Reply by JustMe on April 28, 2010 at 7:57pm Wooow...Different strokes for different folks. I wear sneakers, sweats, scrubs, jeans, etc just about every day. And when there's a special occasion or whenever I just feel like it, then I'll dress up and dress my ass off... Some people are forced to dress up with their jobs or line of work...but not all jobs require that, not all people work 9-5s...It's funny because this is actually how you know that you're bad...When you have guys/ballers trying to holla and you ain't in 6 inch heels and designer threads. I've had "ballers" who met me for the first time to tell me they love that about me and that I ain't like the "other broads" wearing heels all the time....so again, different strokes for different folks. Her two yr-old son is very active, so the sneakers and jeans every day suits her just fine in running and chasing him and doing other fun activities. I don't know any two yr-olds who care much about clothes.
It's just funny because I don't ever hear many people saying this about the men like Shaq, Will Smith, and Dwight etc and their playful, silly laid-back ways....They are who they are and their kids seem to love them...

Permalink Reply by Baller Alert on May 2, 2010 at 1:20pm I just watched "The Scene" and I have no sympathy for Cassandra.
I don't give a s*** WHAT my husband did/is doing. I will NEVER let a b**** sit in my face and tell me anything about me, my husband or what's going on in my home. I would've done more than throw a drink in her face. #itsnotagame
