Shaunie O' Neal Tells CNN Basketball Wives Isnt Negative Towards Black Culture

Shaunie O'Neal is a star and executive producer of VH1's reality show "Basketball Wives."

Shaunie O'Neal Talks About "Basketball Wives" Portrayal of Black Women on Reality TV.


The problem for me is when black women are portrayed as only being that way and labeled different than their non-black counterparts for the same type of behavior. That's when it becomes negative and damaging to our image.



I do believe some of the shows featuring African-American women have positive story lines and are not meant to tear black women down. Shows like [BET's] "Tiny & Toya" and "Monica: Still Standing," [TVOne's] "LisaRaye: The Real McCoy," [VH1's] "What Chili Wants" and [WE tv's] "The Braxtons."
