Tami Roman Dishes On Evelyn's Dishonesty, Shaunie Pimping The Cast, Kenny Anderson, And Kenny's Ex Spinderella

Posted: 21 Mar 2011 08:07 AM PDT

 

Tami Roman,  this year's standout addition to "Basketball Wives," stopped by Power 92.1 in Richmond to dish on all the behind the scenes drama, including her fight with Evelyn Lozada, how much the ladies earn and if she actually stole Kenny Anderson from Spinderella.  Deets inside...

 

When "Basketball Wife" Tami Roman stopped by Power 92.1 to chat with TT Torrez, she spilled the tea on what's been going on after the "Basketball Wives" season finale and reunion show.   And, as usual, we have the highlights of the important parts for you below:

  

On not fitting in with the other "Basketball Wives":

She said she thinks everybody comes from a different place and she is a bit more modest when it comes to flashy clothes and things like that. She said even when she was with Kenny Anderson she was a simple person.

On if she talks to her castmates off-camera:

She said she talked to both Shaunie and Jennifer but the conversations were short and were about her season 3 plans.  She said everyone is only looking out for themselves because if "Basketball Wive"s doesn’t continue, then they don’t have anything else to fall back on.

On if she’s coming back on ‘Basketball Wives’:

She said she's still undecided because she felt the producers didn't show her true personality and made her look crazy.


On the huge Evelyn fight:

She said the night of the big fight, producers edited out the part where Shaunie came out to talk to her about people not being honest.  So she thought Evelyn was going to tell her she didn’t like her, but she had no idea that Evelyn and Kenny (her ex-husband) had sex.

Tami then explained that the fight was about dishonesty and Evelyn not telling her about the affair. She says she was upset because Evelyn should have been more upfront before they started to develop a relationship.  

On rumors of her stealing Kenny Anderson from Spinderella:

Tami said she didn’t know who Kenny Anderson was when he and Spinderella were together. She says the couple was broken up by the time she met him and Spin was well aware about their relationship. 

On the ‘Basketball Wives’ reunion show:


She said she didn’t want to come on the reunion show at first but changed her mind because she wanted to show she is educated and articulate. She wanted the fans to see the other side of Tami. She says her other cast mates have to do what they have to do to keep it drama filled and keep the checks coming.

On the salary rumor that they get $7,500 per show:

She said she doesn’t know what the other girls get paid.

On her and Suzie’s relationship:


Suzie isn’t important to her.

On if Shaunie is pimping her and her cast mates:

She said Shaunie is the executive producer of the show so it’s all business with her. She said if you decide to do a reality show you already know what you are getting yourself into so Shaunie is NOT pimping her and her cast mates.

On if ‘Basketball Wives’ ruined Jennifer and Eric Williams’ relationship:

She said she doesn’t know if their relationship could have survived whether the show happened or not because they already had some problems. She does believe there was a point in time that Jennifer was in love with him and he was in love with her.

On her upcoming projects:


She said she has a book coming out titled The B.I.T.C.H. Chronicles which stands for Believing In Total and Complete Honesty.  She believes once people read her story they will understand alot about her and who she is as a person.

She also shared that she is working on a pilot for the USA network for a new scripted show. She says if the pilot goes through, then she’s not returning to "Basketball Wives."  And....she added that she's in a relationship right now with a man who is good to her and her kids.

Mel B. Is PREGNANT With Her & Hubby Stephen's FIRST CHILD Together!

Posted: 21 Mar 2011 07:32 AM PDT

Three wasn't enough for Mel B. and husband Stephen Belafonte.  The "Spice Girls" singer turned workout diva Mel B. just revealed she's pregnant!  And she's showing off her 2nd trimester baby bump in the new issue of HELLO! mag, and talking about her expanding family, when you read on....

Mel B. shares her 12-year-old Phoenix Chi with her former backup dancer Jimmy Gulzar, and her 3-year-old Angel Iris, who she shares with Eddie Murphy.  Stephen has a 6-year-old daughter named Giselle from a previous relationship.

And now, the couple, both 35-years-old, are expecting their first child together.  Mel told HELLO! magazine:

'The power of wanting a baby, I think, can sometimes just work to your advantage. I didn't think I would get pregnant that quickly.'

'We're really thrilled. We wouldn't have planned and waited for four years to have a baby if we weren't excited and ready for it... We're really happily married, and we're both very much in love.'

Of finding out the baby's sex, she reveals:

'I haven’t fully decided if I want to know or not. I’m over the first trimester, so I’m past the shady three months and on to safe territory.


 

Mel also talked about how rough those first 3 months were--she was constantly sick and exhausted.  And she never experienced that with her first 2 pregnancies.

Interestingly, 3 out of 5 of the Spice Girls are pregnant right now.  Mel's band mates Emma, who is due in May, and Victoria Beckham, who will give birth in July.

Congrats to Mel B.!

Posted: 20 Mar 2011 02:36 PM PDT

On Friday, songstress Jennifer Hudson opened up on 20/20 and shared her tears and joys about her career, husband and son, and tragic death of her family. We have a clip from the intervew when you read on...

Jennifer Hudson, whose sophomore album I Remember Me debuts next week,  opened to ABC reporter Deborah Roberts about a wide range of issues including the murders of her mother, brother and nephew in 2008:

 “God is what I feel certain about. No matter what he’s always there—always. I feel like that is the greatest gift that my mother (gave me)-that no money, no fame, no nothing could give you at all."

She also opened up about her husband David Otunga and son David Daniel Otunga Jr., who she calls “munchkabunch:”

“He’s so sweet. He loves to dance, he loves music.  If my Weight Watchers commercial comes on he tells me, ‘Mama, that’s my mama!’”

And despite all of the pain and tragedy, Jennifer has still maintained an attitude of joy and gratitude. During her interview, she said:

“I have the greatest sadness to be sad over, but then look at the joy that I have too.”

Check out her interview below:

 

It's good to see that JHud had been positive throughout the roughest storm of her life. She is definitely a YBF woman.
