I’m always harping about how much I detest so-called “reality” TV shows. But “Basketball wives,” the brainchild of Shawuille O’neal’s estranged wife Shaunie, is one reality show that I will be tuning in to.

“Basketball wives” revolves around a group of mostly LSLH, bitter, ex-girlfriends, baby mamas, and estranged or divorced wives of NBA stars such as Dwight Howard and the aforementioned Shaq. The show already has a built in fanbase of messy groupies who know every intimate detail of these women’s lives — because their NBA men told it all. Oh yes, men gossip worse than women (who do you think I get most of my scoops from?)

The basketball wives include Royce Reed, a former dancer for the Orlando Magic who has a son with one of the team’s centers, Dwight Howard, Mesha O’Neal, wife of Miami Heat center Jermaine O’Neal, Evelyn Lozada (ex-fiancé of Antoine Walker) and Faith Rain (Udonis Haslem’s girlfriend). Source

“Basketball Wives” premieres Sunday, April 11, on VH1. I suspect this show will make the RHOA cast members look like nuns. I can’t wait!
