‘Basketball Wives’ Star Shaunie O’Neal Calls Out Evelyn Lozada, Addresses Controversial Comment
“Basketball Wives” Season 7, episode 14 marked a very tense episode for the cast as they headed to Amsterdam for a vacation away from all of the drama in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, trouble followed the ladies overseas, and as a result, Shaunie O’Neal took to Twitter to call out Evelyn Lozada and clap back at fans who criticized her response to a controversial statement.
On Sunday night, Evelyn managed to stir up some trouble by inviting Jennifer Williams to Amsterdam even though she knew Shaunie wouldn’t be happy about her nemesis’ arrival. Shaunie cut ties with Jennifer after learning she planned to use a rumor about Shaunie’s ex against Evelyn.
Before Jennifer and Evelyn made up and became friends again, they were in a vicious feud. During that time, Jennifer planned to leak a rumor that Evelyn was sleeping with Shaunie’s ex. Even though the plan didn’t work out, Shaunie was furious Jennifer was willing to mess up her life just to get back at Evelyn.
“I was a little frustrated with Evelyn inviting Jennifer. #basketballwives,” Shaunie admitted.
Her live tweeting during the episode quickly took a serious turn when she decided to address Evelyn’s behavior. When the women sat down for dinner, Evelyn and CeCe Gutierrez got into a heated argument. As the two exchanged insults, Evelyn called CeCe Lele, a woman Malaysia Pargo identified as the “nail lady.”
“Lord Evelyn would not lay off of Cece.... #Basketballwives,” Shaunie wrote.
“That was not right Evelyn!!!! Come on Ev #basketballwives,” she added.
Although Shaunie appeared to be unhappy with the comment, VH1 fans called her out for not further reprimanding Evelyn over what some deemed a racist remark.
“Let’s be very clear, whatever I say in my interviews and on social media about what’s happening on the show, I can also say it directly to the person. I said what I said, and I meant what I said. I don’t have a problem telling ppl when they are wrong,” she wrote.
While Shaunie attempts to distance herself from the drama, fans will just have to wait to see whether Evelyn and CeCe will be able to settle their differences when “Basketball Wives” Season 7 airs Sundays at 10 p.m. EDT.
