The BOYCOTT Of Evelyn Lozada & The "Basketball Wives" Is ON!

Apr 25 | by Natasha

Folks are absolutely fed up with the utter foolywangery that is VH1's "Basketball Wives." It only took 4 seasons for that to happen. Yet and still, a petition has popped up to boycott cast member Evelyn Lozada's new spinoff show....and Star Jones is gathering up support of powerful women to get the show and its often embarrassing antics stopped.

Deets inside...

Evelyn and her assistant Nia Crooks ganging up on co-star Jennifer Williams this season seems to have been the straw that broke the slaphappy camel's back. Because folks are more up in arms than ever at the antics of the grown women on this show. From jumping on tables just to get a lick in on another female to throwing glass in the face of another to may-jah curse-your-ass-out arguments, it's a lot going on "Basketball Wives" these days.

An excerpt from an online petition that is now circulating (check it out in full HERE) reads:

“Evelyn Lozada is a bully. The violence on ‘Basketball Wives’ is horrible and disgraceful. This is not a hate petition against Eveyln Lozada. We simply will not support violence. It hurts to see violence amongst women on television for entertainment purposes. It is not OK for women to hit each other on TV.

Just about every altercation and argument on the show has involved Evelyn in some way, shape or form. From the yelling match on the season 4 premier against her former bestie, Jen, to the table climbing and hair pulling in the last couple of episodes, the woman has a problem for reals."

Ha! The petition also asks viewers to call and write Viacom in order to stop the release of "Ev & Ocho," Evelyn's spinoff show with fiance Chad OchoCinco.

Meanwhile, former "The View" co-host Star Jones went on a twitter rant reading these chicks. Which we assume would include her ex-hubby, Al Reynolds, who appeared on several episodes as the girls' bestie. *eyebrow raised*

She popped off this week saying:

“It may be ‘comfortable’ to be quiet when women of color slap the crap out of each other & run across tables barefoot, but #ENOUGHisENOUGH."

“About to put together a group of sisters to finally ‘tell the truth’ about the image of women of color in the media.”

She continued:

"And the thought that the woman from #BBW who was smacked doesn't have the RIGHT to file assault charges is LUDICROUS! You NEVER give up your right not to have your ‘person’ intentionally assaulted unless you are participating in an agreed physical activity.

…little black girls deserve more than what we're giving! It sickens me @lov3lylina85 when young sis think that behavior is acceptable. U can't get a REAL JOB acting like an animal."

So...who's getting their virtual picket signs ready for the fight? Any takers?

it is all about ratings and

it is all about ratings and thanks is due to love and hip hop's last season so females of color especially are acting extra vh1 had it's highest ratings because of love an hip hop's historic fight scene i love Tammi Eve and Shaunie making reality fights interesting and haters making all the basketball wives rich. Anger management works when you want it to and my girls show happy sad and angry emotions.

We need more positive

We need more positive television program that teaches positive message. Basketball wives is not that show, and am not watching anymore. All that fighting, throwing bottles, pulling hair etc is nothing but drama.... I can't pick one positive message from it at all, and so am off for good. Hopefully we,ll get something true, that celebrates real womanhood, positively..

Tami, Tami, Tami, that young

Tami, Tami, Tami, that young lady is about the age of your oldest daughter. What if someone came at your daughter like that in a group of young ladies that she hardly knows and no one stood up for her. Yes Keisha is grown, but come on, she did not want to fight and your actions were just leading to a fight.

It's thoughtful you felt you could address Tami and she possible may grasp the reality of what you are calling to her attention, but she is just ignorant and does not have a clue. Do not waste your time

What about the way Evelyn

What about the way Evelyn keeps swearing on her daughter's life? She did it again last episode. I'm scared for this poor child's safety. Last time she told Jen, "I swear on my baby's life your azz is gonna get stung every time I see you" well we know that wasn't true.

Ok, if they want to stop

Ok, if they want to stop Evelyn from being on BBW, cool but don't stop her from making her money with her fiancé on her OWN show! Jennifer knew those ladies were full of drama, stay away from them but it's more of the producers who showcase the negative side of BBW. I don't think it's all bad but they will show all the bad things to keep their ratings up!

EVILyn is CRAZY! It's so so

EVILyn is CRAZY! It's so so so sad that this 40 something woman who a like a teenager gets to be on TV. She is a day away from cracking and looking like her mother and two pounds away from looking like Ms. Piggie. I will sign the petition. And the sad part is that Black people help to make people like her rich. And some Blacks say she is Black and while she may have some black genes. I don't know. If you call her black she would probably throw a bottle at you. Most Hispanics are ashamed of the fact that they have some African ancestry and she doesn't seem any different!

Use Tammy as an example

Use Tammy as an example because, she always hits on people-Evelyn never hit anyone! Evelyn is the only reason I watch "Basketball Wives" because she is real(everything about Jen is fake-she is right about Chad, and needs a fake man like him)! I do not support bullying or putting your hands on people, but Evelyn needs to stop letting fake bitch*s like Jen upset her and handle the situation differently. If you boycott Evelyn, boycott all the women that have actually put their hands on people Chrissy(Love and Hip Hop) and Tammy. Attacking one person is very unfair-Evelyn needs to pick up new friends like Kandi Buress and leave "ghetto chicks" like Chrissy and Tammy alone.

Evenlyn is nothing but a media whore. It's sad that at her age she is acting like this. I put Tami, Shauni and tag along Suzie in the same boat... Ew... boycott all these women. And I wouldn't watch on minute of Eve and Ocho (media whores). I think that Jen, Royce, Kesha show some decorum and class. I know Jen is uptatee but at least she has class.

Tammy and Chrissy (Love and Hip Hop) should be boycotted-Evelyn did not put her hands on anybody! Evelyn looks better that Jen, and Evelyn only dislikes Jen because she is fake(Jen looks down on people that do not have material items)! Evelyn needs to hang around Kandi Buress and leave "low class" people like Chrissy and Tammy alone-they will eventually backstab Evelyn!

Jen has class. Shaunie thinks

Jen has class. Shaunie thinks she does because she has money (and an ugly nose). Evelyn and Tammi have no class. That is the real reason they hate Jen. She will not stoop down to their level. And she is much prettier. Evelyn looks like a hard old saggy hag and Tammi looks all used up. Thats why they dont like Jen. Shes too classy for them and they cant stand it.

This show is a poor representation of women in the media and it is sad. I stop watching the show this season after the first airing. Ladies! Wake up and stop the craziness. We have enough problems in the world as it is. Now, young girls think it is ok to be rude, to be disrespectful, to assault another over an comment and to judge based the assumption of what one can and can't do just because you are different. I support the boycott.

I saw 1 or 2 shows last

I saw 1 or 2 shows last season and could not take it any more-enough is enough. I knew that I would not watch this degrading show ever again. I started my own boycott-I refuse to watch this mess because it is ridiculous. Shaunie and the other producers act as if Evelyn is the Queen. You can not compare this show to any other reality show at this time because it is in a class all by itself-NO CLASS AT ALL AND TACKY! I hope this show and anything that Evelyn has to do with does not make it to TV. I saw her nice side before and if she can get all of that negative behavior out of her life she would be a good person. She needs help because right now on TV she comes across as an evil, hateful, unhappy and jealous person. Yuck- :(

I can tell u y evelyn is so

I can tell u y evelyn is so madd. She's not happy about her lonely sad life, she is about 2, (i guess) marry sadd as chad ocho, who only care about attention, and not her desperate ass, and she has no kind of relationship with her father, and she is jealous of Jen's life, because Jen has accomplish more than she ever will. Jen made it down the altar, got her own business, where is ev's business has folded, just like her old ugly ass has, so her only hope, so she thinks, is 2 marry the first thing that looked @ her twice. ( poor child). No descent man will marry a woman he can screw on the first night. He hasn't even taken her home 2 meet his family. (side eye.) I hope her daughter doesn't take notes from desperate mommy. SHMD..............

Forget the cast!

Forget the cast! Boycott/protest VH1, Viacom and the sponsors who pay for this nonsense and then we'll get somewhere. These women were ignorant before this show and may very well be long after. We need to get to the root of the problem.
