Now I have seen a lot of foolishness in my days of Reality TV watching but this right here takes the cake!! So in the latest news of the Jennifer Williams/ Nia Hoodrat Crooks saga, VH1 producers are actually threatening to sue Jennifer due to "bad press" the show has been receiving ever since the episode of the altercation aired. There are so many things wrong with this picture, I don't even know where to start.
First of all, Basketball Wives has never been revered as quality television or thought of positively by the outside world. Since the beginning of it's run, people have said it portrays women of color in a negative light, it sends the wrong message to young girls, or they just feel the whole show is based on a bunch of untalented hoes making money off of who they've slept with. For those of us who were fans of the show, it served as entertainment and an inside look into the "circles" of women associated with athletes. So the supposed "bad press" they are receiving now is just a build-up-as the show gets more & more ridiculous.
Second of all, the rat Nia is not even a cast member! So by Jennifer suing her, she has every right to do so!! I have said this before; if Jen & Nia were standing face to face in a fist fight and Jen got her ass beat, I would say OK Jen you got beat up, just take the L and get her next time. But that wasn't the case in this scenario!! Jenn was sitting down, faced the opposite direction and the girl smacked her dead across her face. Slapping someone in the face is the most disrespectful thing you can do.. That is why the phrase 'Huge Slap in the Face' is used when something is seen as a gesture of disrespect. She has every right to sue and I don't understand why Vh1 cares so much.
Thirdly, Jennifer has never spoke against Vh1, Basketball Wives or the producers. She has only spoken out about Nia and Evelyn putting their hands on her. If anything Tami has been the most vocal about the producers portraying her as "the angry black woman".. Why aren't they suing her? The petitions against VH1 and Basketball Wives are all a product of the excessive violent behavior done by EVELYN!! She threw the wine bottle and glass plates at Kenya, she tried to attack Jen and her assistant smacked Jen across the face. Why aren't the producers suing her?
If I was Jen, I would leave this whole "franchise" behind and pursue bigger & better things. This show is getting old fast! We can only watch you guys get "drinks/lunch" for so long. As soon as Evelyn leaves (which will probably be soon) there will be no more wild animals acting crazy, therefore the show will decline with it. VH1 needs to look at themselves because by suing Jenn it will only further tarnish their already ugly, damaged image.
