AceShowbiz - Shaunie O'Neal has broken her silence about all the dramas on "Basketball Wives" during this season. The ex-wife of Shaquille O'Neal recently took to her Instagram account to address them through a Live broadcast video.
During the broadcast, Shaunie, who also serves as the executive producer of the VH1 series, talks about how "Basketball Wives" was just her job and people seemed to be too invested with the show. She also said that the cast members were paid to care about what's happening on the show for 4 or 5 months. However, once the camera goes off, she didn't care before alluding that she kind of doesn't care even when the cameras are on.
Another thing she mentioned was that she did talk to Evelyn Lozada, who was feuding with co-star Ogom "OG" Chijindu, that she was wrong all the time. However, that part was not put on the show because they talk every single day.
Also among the things she addressed was rumors of OG not returning for an upcoming season of the series. Shaunie claimed that the former Legends Football League cornerback wasn't fired.
Previous report said that OG was fired because she "is very aggressive, and she's powerful. So her aggression is very dangerous. Many women don't feel comfortable around her," an informant explained. One of the many instances of OG showcasing her power was the moment when she easily tossed co-star Evelyn into the bushes in the latest episode of the show's season 9.
While Feby Torress and Tami Roman were also said to be not returning, Evelyn, Shaunie, Jennifer Williams, Malaysia Pargo and Jackie Christie are all returning. As for Kristen Scott's and CeCe Gutierrez, their fates allegedly remained unknown. The network might ask them to return, but it was also said that they planned to replace the two with more "exciting" personalities.
