Reality TV...Things I Love

"If you read a lot of books, you're considered well read.  But if you watch a lot of TV. you're not considered well viewed" 
                                                                                                                                       Lily Tomlin

OK, it's true I am a reality TV addict.  Maybe it has something to do with having the Shit Ass Disease?  No, that would be a lie.  I have been addicted since the first Real World.  There I said it.  I love reality TV, it puts you in a thoughtless, obtuse and enthralled mind set.  But for of those of  you like my husband, who walks by and say's, "Why do you watch such stupid shows"?  You are missing out, period!

Let's start with my favorites.  Basketball Wive's of LA!!! 

From Jackie Christie who is crazy beyond crazy to Maylasia Pargo, Angel Brinks, Brandi Maxiell, Mehgan and Draya there is just not a boring moment.  These ladies try their dam-dist to get along, then the alcohol starts flowing, and the crazy starts. Here are a few reasons I love this show.

Shaunie ONeal 

Shaunie was married to Shaq O'Neal from 2002 to 2011, had 5 children and is the head producer and matriarch of the show.  Don''t fuck with Shaunie, period! She seems to be one of the few that is kinda normal.

Tami Roman

Tami (You might remember her from Real World season 2) was married to Kenny Anderson from 1994 to 2001.  She was on BW Miami, but Shaunie brought her over to LA to stir things up  little.  In Miami she was a bully and crazy.  On LA she is just crazy,

Jackie Christie

Jackie, Jackie, Jackie!  She's married to Doug Christie whom retired in 2007.  Here are a few comments that made me laugh until I spit out my wine...

"Umm this candle smells like poot-per-re"

"I washed my mouth out with Plur-ex".

Her real ahh fake 7 caret diamond fell out of her ring on to the floor when she was talking about her 9 Rolex's, her response, "It was shaken when I shook it weeks before".  

"I'm the boss lady, I can let a bitch run her mouth like she has diarrhea". 

She came into a restaurant to have lunch with a Maylasia, wearing a baby blue furry trench coat, black gloves and a scarves. She sits down and her Maylasia asks, "Is that's a trench coat"?  Jackie, "I felt like getting my Audrey Hepburn on today",  Maylasia reply,  "I think your getting your bag lady on".

Maylasia Pargo

Maylasia is one of my favorites.  She is divorced from Jannero Pargo.  She said he was a cheater and she divorced him.  She is one of the "normal" ones on the show. She really doesn't put up with anyone's bull shit, yet everyone likes her.

Brandi Maxiell

Brandi is married/seperated from player Jason Maxiell (also a cheater). They met in high school, married in 2009.  She overcame ovarian cancer.  I like her because she doesn't take any shit.  She may not be back next season because she told Shaunie she was a bitch ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh no she didn't!

Angel  Brinks

This girl is just plan weird.  She has a daughter with Tyreke Evans, but never married him.  She is a fashion designer (see above photo),  I bought this outfit yesterday!

Draya Michelle

You just have to watch to get the whole Draya experience.  She was/is engaged to Orlando Scandrick, a Dallas Cowboy player.  OK words can not explain this woman.

Mehgan James

Then there is Megan's bathing suit.  Shaunie's remark was, "Good God, Megan's bathing suit needs its own hashtag".  Megan, "Its a long scarf that you can wrap around you anyway you want".  Brandi, "You can see your vagina".



Roll on bitches......
