Last night’s Reunion Episode of Basketball Wives Season 2 was… hmm… how do I put it?
Women blasting naked pics of themselves on Twitter
Women calling each other bitches
Women calling themselves grown ass women but acting like “teeny ass women” as host and ex-basketball star John Salley put it.
Of course, it’s all about ratings and anybody willing to air their dirty drawers on the national tube will get viewers — Wives is no exception. Admit it, you wanna see a good weave tugging, silicone busting brawl every now and then!
But when it comes to Black reality shows, it’s time for something different – and by ‘different’ I mean better.
Black reality as it stands can be summed up like this: a few seasons of airtime for the not-naturally-talented-enough-to-be-famous filled with episodes of who slept with who, who’s sleeping with who, and who’s about to sleep with who.
Or we’re following Flavor Flav, New York, Chance, or some other pseudonym down a the pathway to destruction love.
Which makes me wonder: would a real romantic reality show like the Black Bachelor or Bachelorette find an audience on air — or would we rather trade in true love for the next big headline on TMZ?
What? Jerry Springer is too good for them?!!!
They should call it Basketball HotWives. And then make it x-rated. They won’t be any difference. It is the same garbage.
I know right! These chiques cast a shadow over our black sisters. They def. shd make it x-rated.
