‘Basketball Wives’ season 5, episode 9 review: Evelyn Lozada’s fashion show and peace?
There was a something that took place on tonight’s “Basketball Wives” episode in London, and we are not quite sure how we feel about it which is people actually getting along for a change. There was no sort of epic battle that took place during the trip despite it feeling at times like an annual occasion, and there was also no stunning event that change the lives of any of the women forever. The biggest movement that we would say took place was Evelyn Lozada starting up a foundation to help out women who are in situations of domestic violence, which is a very noble cause.
Where there still some dust-ups here and there? Sure. After all, Tasha Marbury and Suzie Ketcham do not like each other, but they decided to keep their barbs mostly at bay save for a few random skirmishes here and there. It’s almost like someone told them that if they kept up this sort of behavior, they would end up looking ridiculous on television. Look at that! Someone on a reality show actually trying to not cause drama all the time for the sake of air time.
From the perspective of entertainment, we actually appreciated being surprised. Do we want to see a month or so with no drama in it at all? Not in the slightest, but it’s good to mix up the fighting with something different. The ladies being in London is probably a big reason why the lack of conflict ended up working. Had they been back home, it would have more than likely turned out to be a disaster, since there would be nothing new or different for the women to do. Here, at least, there were plenty of other options away from fighting, since it is not everyday that you see people (even rich ones) travel across the pond.
In the end, don’t worry: Kenya Bell will be back next week, which is almost like the show inviting itself to a three-ring circus of insanity. There will be more arguments soon enough, and you should just think of this instead as a sort of calm before the storm.
But what do you think about this “Basketball Wives” episode? Be sure to share your thoughts below, and click here if you’ve got an innate curiosity to read some more news related to the show.

Here is a grown woman with a grown daughter. Her behavior is shameful , she is a non entity and her days in the limelight are numbered, she single handedly is responsible for bbw wives drop in ratings! PPP decided last season that hey would not watch because of her. Then she started all her hooting and hollering about Chad with crocodile tears and a total character assassination of him, no soy is buying it and I for one am totally disgusted. Who ever is giving her career advice , dropped the ball. Fashion show ? You mean rip off of forever 21 designs.

Does Evelyn Lozada really think that fashion is the best thing for her to get into? She has zero style, she’s lazy and she looks like a tranny… Not a good combo.

Lol!,, lozada boasted that she carried this show, but when pimp nostrils cut Royce and Jen , viewers left in droves. People are NOT watching BbW because of YOU , don’t get it twisted Evilone Lasagna. A clue shoulda been that petition that everyone was signing you moron! Plus nobody appreciated the hatchet job you did on Ochocinco.

They know that they screwed up, they know that people don’t appreciate how they live their lives, the fighting, cussing and abusing of weaker females, that’s why they are trying to act decent. If this fools you, well shame on you! There is nothing improved about these low life’s , they are just clawing the enge of the precipice trying to hold on to the last 15 seconds of their shameful “fame” if any of them think that I will support one of their business ventures by buying that cheap knockoff BS that they peddle. They are wrong !! Next!
