Basketball Wives L.A's Tanya Young Exposes The Show's Secrets

Tanya Slams 'Basketball Wives'

Tanya Young, who appeared on 'Basketball Wives: L.A" for only two episoded explains that her experience on the show was "sheer hell". She also wrote a blog on the The Daily Beast exposing some of the show's secrets.

“I sat motionless as the women fought over my head and producers worked to break up the melee. However, the cameramen never lost sight of their target: the fight. They captured every moment, from every angle. The footage was the guarantee the producers needed to bait their audience during teasers for the premiere of Basketball Wives LA. As the women pulled out pieces of weave, called each other names, tore each other’s clothing, and struck each other in the face, the producers struck ratings gold—and they knew it.”


She also says that the reason why  she only appeared for two episodes was because of her inability to fight with the other women.

“I was also a threat,” Tanya says, “because I told the women that ‘no television show is worth fighting on and disgracing yourself for.’ Despite the fact that legions of fans and supporters wrote to VH1 and on blogs of their desire to see a balanced show, which they felt that I represented, Shed Media decided that a ‘sophisticated’ woman like me didn’t fit into the new and evolving storylines.”

Royce Writes An Open Letter To Tami ; Criticizes Her Behavior

Royce Goes In

Fans are the only one who are not happy with the recent behavior of some of the women on the show. Royce also not happy. She blogs about Tami, Evelyn and Shaunie's behavioron the last epsiode.

"I was honestly just hoping Kesha didn’t say her skin hurt. Tami seemed as though she was trying to find something to get upset about and she chose a cough. From the way the girls were seated in the car, to laughing and making faces behind Kesha’s back if you take a screen capture from that scene and mine from the van in Spain, it’s almost identical.


I’m not sure what happened to Tami, but this isn’t the woman I’ve gotten to know. To see these women gang up on someone who has done nothing to them is embarrassing. I say ganging up because NO ONE did anything to stop it. If you don’t say anything you then become part of the problem. Who cares if Kesha was scared to get in the ocean with sharks and stingrays, I don’t believe I saw any of your asses in a swimsuit jumping in the water either. How are you going to call someone else scary when at least they put on the attire instead of saying “Oh Hell NO” in confessionals?????


I applaud Suzie and Kesha for appreciating what Tahiti had to offer and attempting to stay drama free. I find it amazing when alcohol is used as liquid courage and an excuse to turn into the HULK. Most times I drink, I get emotional, horny, and just want to dance…..:side-eye: lol. But if you know that drinks cause you to have a temper, why indulge just because everyone else is? The whole scene with Tami and Kesha I shook my head. At some point you have to look at yourself and say “Damn, that wasn’t a good look. I need to change the way I speak to people and handle things because I look crazy.” If you don’t see it, your “so-called” friends have and should tell you the same. Tami, if Evelyn and Shaunie found no problem with Kesha’s questions, it wasn’t up to you to find one. Tami, if you HEARD Kesha said all these things about you, why not call out the person who told you so you can get all three parties together.


I’m sure THAT PERSON was probably sitting at that table. I have an idea of two people who could’ve said it. One is known to talk a lot, and the other is a snake in the grass. If you’re going based off the footage that was shown, Kesha said “I seriously had to just NOT go off…and honestly, like, I could’ve came at Tami and said whatever I wanted to but there’s nothing I could’ve said that would’ve made her look worse than she was making herself look…Tami is like acting a fool” …She never said she wanted to, so why are you asking her to now??? The smirking on the side by Evelyn and Shaunie is a DAMN SHAME. Grown as women talking about a damn position! Grown ass women wanting to fight with no repercussions!I HEARD about what happened in Tahiti but seeing it now is an embarrassment and the sh!t is PISSING ME OFF!!!! GROWN ASS AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN feeding into the stereotype already placed on us…plus two!!!"

Kesha Says Her Beef With Tami Is Over



The Drama Is Over

Kesha and Tami has been beefing throughout the whole season. Kesha now says that their drama is now over.

“I had the full intention of speaking to Tami directly. It just so happened that the next time I saw her was at my friend’s charity event, so I didn’t think that was the right place,” she explained. That failure to address it at their next meeting left the door open for Tami to hear Kesha’s concerns second hand.

“I knew Evelyn was going to tell her. I was just having a conversation about how to handle a person like Tami, who’s quick to snap,” said Kesha. “That’s exactly what I got from her.”

Football Wives' Dawn Blogs About Pilar Sanders ; Deion Sanders On GMA

VH1 Insider

Dawn Neufeld blogs about the latest drama surrounding her former co-star Pilar Sanders who were both on 'Football Wives' back in 2010.

"The Pilar I came to know during Football Wives is a master at playing the victim. She would instigate situations and when confronted with her behavior, she’d deny, lie or walk away. She wouldn’t engage cast members while the cameras were rolling, but she’d take to Twitter or radio interviews when she couldn’t be confronted to address the situations and claim we were all ganging up on her. When I tried to defend myself in my blogs or in interviews, Pilar and her followers would rip me apart. It was hurtful and I felt helpless – no one was hearing me! One of my castmates told me I had to try and let it go because I’d never win the public battle against Pilar – she’s got a very loyal group of followers who think she can do no wrong. One of those followers is the woman who allegedly aided Pilar in her attack Monday. If it’s the same woman I’m thinking about, she was horrible, HORRIBLE to me and even engaged in Twitter dialogue with Pilar about me where they referred to me as the “Crypt Keeper.”

Deion Sanders was recently on 'Good Morning America" to speak out on the drama.
