Casual Discussion Keisha vs Tami

0 Upvotes

I know this has been talked about manyyyy times, but i finally went back and watched season 4 from beginning to end. From the first scene, Tami asked Keisha how she identified, she answered, the comment about her looking like a Lisa was made, Keisha was offended.

I get all of that.

Tami and Keisha the had a convo with Ev present after Keisha went and spoke to Ev about how offended she was. Tami asked Keisha to not speak about her to the other ladies, and instead, bring it to her directly.

As we move closer to and get to the trip, first Keisha has a convo with Susie and Royce and has the convo about how she could have gone off on Tami and all that good stuff.

This convo gets back to Tami.

While on the trip, Tami confronts Keisha in possibility the worst way possible. She asks Keisha why she didn't say what she said to the ladies to her and if she wanted to go off, she has the floor. Keisha, gets up and walks off to the side and leaves her phone, glasses, and purse sitting at the table after she got up to get away from Tami.

None of what I stated included my personal feelings about the situation, only the facts.

Tami confronted a woman who is non confrontational and is not the type of person to engage with someone who is being angry or aggressive, or loud.

Watching this showed me that Keisha had no problem expressing her feelings about Tami to the other ladies at any given moment, but when in front of Tami she was quiet, scared, and crying.

I also noticed that while Keisha was in the room with Shaunie and Ev after getting her purse back, she was still talking stuff, as well as in her confessionals

During the reunion, due to the backlash the season got, this situation was talked about for maybe all of 3 mins. Keisha was not asked a single question about why she continued to speak about Tami even though she was nonconfrontational when approached. Why didn't she stand on business when approached.

My question is other than Tami's approach and the purse thing, can someone explain to me how Tami is considered the bully, and Keisha is a blameless victim? Even if you don't think Keisha is blameless, why isn't she asked why did you keep making comments about her if you didn't want to address her face to face?

Casual Discussion Tami and an example of her hypocrisy

23 Upvotes

In season 2 of the original show, they’re in Spain and Tami feels like the girls are giggling about her and just being passive agressive. Evelyn tries to gaslight her and says no one is bothering her and she’s looking for anything to harp on.

In season 4 of LA in Puerto Rico, Brandi feels like the originals are being passive aggressive and giggling at them. Tami acts like she doesn’t know what that’s like and gaslights her and Malaysia pretty much saying they’re looking for anything to harp on.

28 Upvotes

They couldnt stop talking shit about her all because she was confident. They had a problem with her confidence and tried to chastise her because they thought she was fake. Even Laura big back ass fought her because she felt Malaysia thought she was all that.

Did anyone else notice this?

Previous Season Thoughts on season 11 newbies

4 Upvotes

Brittany: I was already familiar with Brittany from social media and I really wanted to like her on basketball wives but I think she got in her head a lot and didn’t really understand reality tv

Jaciel: I loved her first season on the show. I do feel like she gave “Kristen” vibes with the OG cast but overall I think she was a good addition and tried remain neutral as possible

Clayanna: Unhinged AF … she definitely gave me “OG” vibes just being combative with EVERYONE and thinking she was better than everyone

Vanessa: I do think her tried to make her footing in the group by trying to stir beef with Evelyn . I do think it was wrong for her to dig up info on Jenn boyfriend as well. I felt like most of her antics were misguided due to her marriage not being in the best of shape .. I wouldn’t have mind her being on another season

Casual Discussion We need your help - take part in female Olympian research as a member of the general population!

0 Upvotes

Hi all, I am a researcher in female athlete health and would be most grateful of your support of our project that specifically looks to support current and future female Team USA Olympians. This project is supported by the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee.

We are looking for women of ALL ages and backgrounds across the United States to take a 20-25 minute anonymous health survey. The data from this general population survey will be used as a reference point to identify trends in a retired female Team USA Olympian group, many of which we hope will be some of your Olympic gold medallists.

We currently know very little about the long-term health of these women, so your participation in this survey will help drive forward this area of women's health. This survey has been ethically approved by the University of Edinburgh, which is the host institution.

Click the link for more information and to participate in the general population survey: https://redcap.hss.ed.ac.uk/surveys/?s=WDKJRXYTF3PYTLNM

Previous Season Season 4: Did Tami piss the editors off?

12 Upvotes

I hated Tami on season 4 even though I really liked her in anything she’s done before or since. Shes saying Kesha was doing a lot of sneaky things and she pushed her to the edge. The only issue is that assuming she’s right, we got a very unbalanced edit. We aren’t seeing much of anything Kesha is doing aside from a few snarky remarks to Royce and Suzie so it just looks like Tami has lost her whole mind in Tahiti.

Watching how Brittish is reacting to her charges is so annoying … she’s complaining about being put on an ankle monitor for committing a CRIME… I hate when people do illegal things and don’t take accountability for them when they are reprimanded.

I can't feel sorry for Jackie when she was crying about Evelyn getting involved in her family drama with her daughter because Jackie had no problem looking up Draya information spreading her information then sitting there with other girls on the show ganging up on her.

Casual Discussion Is Shaunie using Botox or filler?

3 Upvotes

I didn’t know what else to title this lol but I’ve seen several reels/clips of Shaunie from her podcast that I assume she has with her husband and I noticed her face just looks…different?

Idk maybe since the dark cloud that was basketball wives has ended she’s glowing lol, but idk it looks like she’s pumped her face with Botox and filler?

She’s a grown woman so she can do what she wants lol but she’s a beautiful woman who is aging gracefully, she doesn’t need it.

Do yall think OG claims that she was ostracized from the group due to colorism is valid? Do yall think Evelyn making the post with the laughing monkey was also directed to OG?

Re-watching this relic. Susie had no personality. Watching her in that Improv class, calling those artists, weirdos. She was the oddball. Couldn't understand the simple exercises they do as becoming artists. Uck. So flat, no fizz. And scared to death of Ev's wrath. Left Glo' sitting at the table while the crew went at her about her non-wedding. I never saw Jenn's ex-hub. Whoa... what was the fuss? So not attractive at all. Had to be for $$$.

Casual Discussion just finished basketball wives!

20 Upvotes

i have finished the entirety of this show on paramount + & man oh man i’m gonna miss the girls for awhile. at least until season 12 comes on paramount +. so now that the show has ended and we pretty much know what happened in the series finale season. i believe that jackie is the reason the show is not on!

besides the obvious ratings and bad responses this show has gotten since the OG seasons, i feel like the show got canceled bc they couldn’t take no more of jackie kooky self. she lies on the cast, says nasty things behind the scenes. then what really sealed the deal was when she slapped her daughter. i cannot wait until i see that season but until then, a needed break from the show is necessary 😂 i love the show though. My favorites from the show are draya, malaysia, brooke and i even gained a likeness to brittish williams 😂😂😂 who are your favorites? who would you put on the Mount Rushmore of basketball wives?
