Is VH1 Back In The Ratings?

For a year VH1 has been slacking in the ratings, it seems 2011 will be VH1's comeback. It has revealed that Basketball Wives 2 finale scored 2.3 million viewers becoming VH1 highest telecast since 2009.

Another show that will succeed is Love & Hip Hop. Based on the good reviews of the show that I posted two days, the sneak peek of Love & Hip-Hop scored 1.9 million viewers.

Poll results: Should Hoopz Do Basketball Wives?

Poll Results:

Should Hoopz Do Basketball Wives?

With Hoopz being engaged to Shaq who is basically Shaunie's ex-husband, I created a poll asking should Hoopz be on Basketball wives since she will be a basketball wife herself. 

YES- 85%

No-14%

and most of you voted yes, she should do Basketballs Wives. I think she should too. It would bring a lot more drama to the show, especially with her and Shaunie.

Royce's Plan B If Basketball Wives dont Keep Her

Royce has a backup plan if she doesn't get back on for "Basketball Wives" next season.

"For all I knew I was, so it's news to me," Royce said of her prospective return to the show. "I honestly don't know. I'm learning just like y'all."

The reality TV star hasn't heard anything from Shaunie about next season because the two of them haven't spoken. But Royce swears it has nothing to do with groundless rumors that she and Shaunie are fighting over Shanunie's new man, Marlon Yates.




"If they consider me boring because I don't talk behind peoples' backs--and when I do, I own up to it--then I guess it is what it is," Royce said. "I thought that that would be something that [VH1] would want to show--like another side. There are those that have their own and don't have to use a person's name to get it."


"Book one of the series is done, so that will be out in a couple of weeks," Royce beamed. "It touches on that side of college that people don't really tend to talk about: You go through the relationships. You go through the breaks. You go through the pregnancy scares. You go through questioning your sexuality."




"I'll just say that [the reunion is] in two parts for a reason," Royce teased. "You're gonna be watching it with your mouths open."

Basketball WIves Shaunie Confirms Season 3 But Not Royce?

Shaunie O Neal Confirms Basketball Wives 3




Heres an Interview Wither Shaunie From Necole Bitchie Blog Site Alot details


via necolebitchie.com
















So Shaunie, listen, we’ve all sort of watched as your marriage unraveled before us. How’d you get so…Zen about the entire situation?


“At some point you have to let go of being angry and bitter. I changed my focus. I had to realize that I had to let it go. My mother (after the divorce from Shaq) told me, ‘you’re gonna have to find yourself a hobby or something.’ And that was a wake up call for me. I had to let it all roll off my back. That was an experience that got me to this point, and I’m so thankful.”






So you’ve just been renewed for Season 3 of VH1’s Basketball Wives, are you getting more comfortable living on camera?


“It’s much more comfortable. You know, I’ve gotten to actually know the crew and now sometimes I can even forget that they’re there. It’s a lot easier to be myself.”






In the beginning it was much publicized that Shaq didn’t really want the children on the show, yet we saw them this season, how was that for them?


“The loved it! After season one they wanted to see themselves. That’s all they could talk about. So they were happy to get to their turn.






So Shaq supported it?


“Well even back when we were married, we considered doing a family reality show. I mean even when we did interviews we never shielded the kids from the camera. They’d be playing in the background. So as long as their inclusion was organic, we’re fine with it.”






So Shaq may actually be doing his own reality series (with fiancé and former reality show contestant Hoopz), would you be ok with the kids being on his show?


“That’s their dad. As long as their appearance on the show made sense, it’s fine. I mean he doesn’t really see them that often right now. He’s not around as much but if it coincided with their school breaks, or on a visit, then sure. That’s no problem.”






Alright so what do your real life friends and family think of Basketball Wives? The ones that aren’t in that lifestyle?


“They love it. They’re all like go ahead, continue the success. And I like that they keep it real with me. They’re the ones who will call me out if they see me acting out of character, or doing something they don’t think I should be doing on camera.”






Like…


“Like the situation with Gloria.”






Right…So since you brought it up, what happened there?


“See the thing is there was a LOT that happened off camera, before we began shooting that really got me upset. I know people watching were confused like ‘why’s she so mad?’, but there had been things she’d said to me that you didn’t see, about that situation.”






Like what?


“Like she told me to take a long walk off a short bridge. Like you’re going to tell me to kill myself? That upset me more than her [sister's] relationship with (Shaq). But I’m over it. Again, we came to an understanding and I was able to let it roll off my back.”






So you just filmed the season two reunion special this week, and of course there was some drama…


“Of course. There was a tense moment…Some words were exchanged.”






Between?


“Evelyn, Jen and Royce, of course. They had words. Which is finny because on camera Royce is SO confrontational – and I even tell her that on the show. We think it’s just a way to try to make herself relevant to return for season 3.”




So Royce might not return right? You said you were looking at possible replacements…


“We are. I can’t say who yet but yes, we are looking at ways to freshen up the cast for season 3.”






Specifically Royce’s place?


“Royce is not confirmed for season 3. But again, I can’t say any more. You’re just going to have to watch!”






So…Think you’ll ever drop the name ‘O’Neal’?


“You know I don’t think so. I have small children and it was hard enough explaining to them why Daddy doesn’t live here anymore, so I can’t imagine how I’d explain to them why Mommy doesn’t have the same last name as them. Plus I think I earned this name…Wow. Do all divorced women get asked this? “






Yes. Every last one. So now that you guys are both moving on, where does that leave you? Many people don’t know, you worked at Twentieth Century Fox before you married Shaquille.


“Yup, in marketing. I mean right now I’m loving my life. I like that I have my hands in several different pots. I’m producing the show, I’ve got my charity Real Models, eventually I want to do a shoe line and accessories. So I have my hands full. I’m creating my own identity outside of Shaquille. On my own terms.”








Last question, you know Basketball Wives has this sort of backlash and connotation of the type of woman that marries ball players. You guys get called gold diggers. Do you think you would’ve married Shaq if he worked construction?


“See, I’m from Los Angeles. I grew up around the industry and yet I always dated regular guys. When I met Shaq, I wanted no parts of him. He’ll tell you, it took three chance encounters before I’d even talk to him. So I was never interested in that life. I’m grateful for what I have but I would’ve still given him a chance if he was a ‘regular guy’. That’s what I was dating when I met him.”






And about those gold diggers?


“Yes. They are real. I mean let’s be honest, there are the gold diggers and we talk about them (on the show) because they exist. And we all know why they exist. But that doesn’t speak for me.”

Basketball Wives' Royce Clears Up The Rumors

Royce Reed Clears Up The Rumors




-Danielle Young Interviews Royce On Getting Replaced, All Star Weekend, and why she is still relevant.






What happened between you and the rest of the Basketball Wives cast over All-Star Weekend?


I honestly have no idea. I was minding my own business and started getting all these messages on Twitter about drama. I never messed with Shaunie’s man. We have actually never even held a full conversation let alone follow each other or Twitter or exchanged numbers. I actually laughed when I heard the story because y’all should’ve known right away it was false when they mentioned expensive shoes. Y’all know I love my Nikes.






Then why is the entire cast so mad at you?


It’s not the entire cast. Last I checked I was fine with Shaunie until I saw the interviews she’s been doing. But I’m cool with most the cast to be honest. It doesn’t consist of three people.






Did you ban the cast from the events you were hosting at All Star Weekend?


No and they all know that. It was an invitation only event and I was just the host. They made the guestlist, not me and we actually saw one of Shaunie’s PR reps at the Glam Glow Sports Spa Event on Friday who said Shaunie was fully aware she was invited.






Are you creating drama with the cast because you think you’re going to be replaced?


For all I know, I was returning. From my understanding, I will be on season three. No one has said anything otherwise. I don’t create drama. I’m not acting. I’m not a “chick” person, so I think drama with females just happens when it comes to me. I don’t dress the size of my bank account and I’m not into the expensive shoes. I’d rather purchase a house or go on a tropical vacation on a beach with friends and family. My days consist of theme parks, go karts, water parks and spoiling my son. Shopping is like a chore to me. I’m a tomboy and I don’t take myself too seriously. I have nothing to prove. People know [that] who I am is based off what I do and say, not what I wear. I’m the girl where we can argue and curse each other out and five minutes later I’ll say, ‘Whatever, let’s go to lunch.’ They’re the total opposite, they like to argue and I tend to laugh.






What made you decide to do Basketball Wives initially?


To have a voice for myself. Before the show I was being slandered and defamed in the media due to some personal family issues going on in my life. I was being blamed for things that weren’t true.






How has it helped your career?


It’s helped me in terms of getting my foot in the door and kind of clearing my name. I was a theatre major, so it’s definitely gotten me a few gigs. I’ll be doing a 14 city tour for a play called Cheaters written by Dennis Reed in which I play a main character.






Why would you want to be a part of a show where you have to constantly defend yourself and your actions?


I’m used to it. I’ve always been that girl. People feel because I’m little and I look young they can try me. I stay quiet and try to ignore things at 1st but it’s only so far I’ll let you go until I call you out on your BS and they got wind of that. I don’t mind defending myself.






You ranted a little on Twitter about being relevant…why?


Like I say all the time, my relevancy to the NBA is far more than who my son’s father is. I actually held a job. I danced for the NBA for three years for two different teams. So I think that makes me more relevant to the NBA than most the cast. But on top of that I have a book series coming out called College Girls, my dance company Fantashique, my non-profit organization Dance to Live that piggy backs off the Michelle Obama campaign for healthy kids and I’m about to do a 14 city tour for a stage play in which I play a main character. I’m a FAMU graduate and I’m using my degree, not someone else’s status. Regardless of what happens .I’ll still be able to stand on my own two feet.






Do you ever regret doing the show?


I don’t regret doing the show at all. I’m human, I make mistakes, but I’m ok with my portrayal on the show because it’s who I really am. I do wish they showed my funny side more. I also wish people could see who I am first and most of the time, which is being a mother and really into my family and true friends.






Has Shaunie changed since the first season?


I can’t say if she changed or not because she wasn’t really filming during the first season.






Has motherhood made you become more aware of your actions as a role model for women?


I’ve definitely grown up. I’m more cognizant of my actions and I learn from my mistakes. Being a mom has definitely made me put my priorities in a different order and Braylon is always number one. I want him to grow up and be proud of me. I want him to say mommy didn’t just sit on her ass and collect a check. He’s going to grow up and be proud to say my mother is Royce Reed. I will never drop my last name but I will put a dash behind it when or if I get married.






What do you have planned after Basketball Wives?


I plan on continuing my entertainment career. I’ve been dancing over 20 years, did competitive cheerleading for eight years, acting over 10, gymnastics for eight, I ran track, played the piano and I used to model. I have a lot under my belt and a pretty extensive resume. Hopefully when the show is over, I will have a lot more opportunities lined up to keep pushing. I also want to continue with my book series College Girls and possibly break it off into movie scripts. I’m a dreamer and an achiever so almost anything I reach for, I get.

Rumor Mill: Shaunie's Boyfriend Allegedly Trying To Get With Royce?

There have been speculations that Royce and Shaunie have been having a "growing tension" between each other behind of scenes of the show.  Meadiatakeout reports that Shaunie's boyfriend who is Marlon Yates is trying to get with her co-star Royce Reed. The site also reports that they  would text eachother and he would buy her stuff. like a pair of expensive shoes. 

Not only that but they also say that he has been using Shaunie's money to buy all the gifts for Royce. Now I'm not sure if this is true because Royce does have a boyfriend that we saw on the show name Dwayne.

Suzie Confirms She has NOT left Basketball Wives

Suzie told VH1 Blogger Rich directly that she’s made no such decision just yet. “Filming Season 2 was so hard for me. It was miserable,” she says. “I’d really have to weigh the pros and cons, but it’s not a definite no. I think I know how to handle things better now and I’ve moved on with the whole Evelyn situation. I don’t care anymore.”




Suzie says she has no idea who TMZ used as a source for its report, and says that she found out about it herself (where else?) on Twitter.
