BASKETBALL WIVES ALWAYS DRAMA!

Evelyn Lozada and Shaunie O'Neal have something to say about the "Basketball Wives: LA" reunion that went down last night.  And they went in on Mrs. Gloria Govan Barnes.  Why?  Because Glo was giving herself a bit too much credit for how the spin off show got started  If you missed it here a up date from YBF- On last night's part 1 of the "Basketball Wives: LA" reunion show, Gloria Govan, dressed in a white Alexander Wang dress and Gucci heels, was feeling herself a bit too much.  As usual, she was popping her gums with the smart ass tone most of the cast have come to hate. So when she and Bambi began to fight, for the umpteenth time, Glo said she didn't understand why Bambi was even on the show in the first place. Of course, Bambi hinted that she was important enough to be on the show--and tried to hint at Gloria's alleged ho-ness in the streets with other men. So Gloria popped back with "Basketball Wives: L.A. was created because of me" type statements.  She said she and her sister Laura went to L.A. (after the "BBW Miami" debacle) and the show kicked off from there. But not so fast Gloria, because head honcho (who doesn't have as much say herself we've come to learn) Shaunie O'Neal said SHE is the reason Glo even has a show.  And of course, Evelyn Lozada got in on the foolery too. I am glad to see nothing ever changes with these ladies if it did there would be no show.
