"Basketball Wives" Doubles Evelyn Lozada's Salary

Evelyn Lozada

According to TMZ, "Basketball Wives" star, Evelyn Lozada, has rejoined the cast for a third season, after producers doubled her salary and issued an apology for making her look bad on national television. However, she made herself look bad in sleeping with a married man (Kenny Anderson), then cursing at his wife (Tami Roman) for being upset that she had the gall to have sex with her husband (at the time).

The show's producer, Shaunie O'Neal, has been desperate to resign Lozada, as her outlandish conduct meant higher ratings. They even roped in footballer Chad Ochocinco into the last season, hoping for a ratings boost. It remains to be seen whether they can keep up the abrasive antics with Lozada and other women on the show.

Evelyn Lozada has returned to the low brow reality show "Basketball Wives" which according to Twitter, is currently being filmed in Miami. There were claims Lozada would pursue her show with fiancé footballer, Chad Ochocinco, but it has not materialized thus far.

Ochocinco has been trying to launch a soccer career in America, during a break from the NFL, but has been unsuccessful thus far. A reality show would have been a diversion while he bides its time. However, the couple may have been scared off the idea by bloggers, who cited the destruction of relationships after realty shows.

Is Evelyn Lozada About To Stab Shaunie O'Neal In The Back For Her Own Show

Evelyn Lozada and fiancé Chad Ochocinco

"Basketball Wives" star, Shaunie O'Neal, is stating everything is set, regarding co-star, Evelyn Lozada, returning to her Jerry Springer-esque reality show. O'Neal also claims ignorance, regarding stories of Lozada wanting more money to return, stating that is not her department. If you say so.

Chad Ochocinco and Evelyn Lozada

O'Neal is seemingly oblivious to the whole thing. However, it's been all over pop culture sites for the past week that Lozada wants to leave "Basketball Wives" to star in her own reality show, with fiancé and football player, Chad Ochocinco.

Shaunie O'Neal

It is being stated, the E! Network is pursing the duo, in a deal that would give them far more money than what O'Neal is currently paying Lozada (reportedly $7,500 per episode). Since Lozada is the main star of the show, what will that do to O'Neal's ratings.

Tami Roman

In other news, O'Neal is getting offensive at people stating the show "Basketball Wives" makes black women look bad (I said that weeks ago in a well read and well linked article: Shaunie Stirring The Doo Doo In The NBA). O'Neal stated people who feel that way should not watch the show, which was a dumb thing to say for someone wanting and needing ratings to get renewed each season, especially in light of the fact, two of her cast members are actively trying to leave for greener pastures, via their own shows on other networks (Lozada and Tami Roman).

Shaunie O'Neal Shares All

According to recent news reports, Evelyn has demanded $20,000 per episode for the upcoming third season or she will not return. Is this true?

I don’t know what amount she’s asked for, to be honest. Evelyn and I have talked almost every day since the show and everything is cool. I do know she’s planning on coming back. We don’t talk about how much she’s gonna ask for or how much she’s expecting because it’s really not a subject that I care about. Especially being a cast member and her friend, along with being on the production side, I don’t even want to deal with that. I don’t do numbers, I don’t do salaries. That’s not my department. I want no parts of that.

Will the engaged couple of, NFL football player, Chad Ochocinco and "Basketball Wives" reality star, Evelyn Lozada, make it down the aisle. The two began their relationship online, slept with each other on the first date, which wasn't a good idea and are now engaged. Marriage is a good thing, but will they make it.

Given the fact the relationship appears to be based in lust and celebrity, will the marriage happen or will it disintegrate like so many other reality show relationships that failed. Ochocinco is laid back, while Lozada has a fiery temper. Will they work well together or have serious issues.

Why Are The "Basketball Wives" Not Really Wives

Stars of the reality show "Basketball Wives"

"Basketball Wives" which may as well be Basketball Witches, with the way some of them fight each other, are not really wives. All of them are pretty, but the majority of them are not wives. The star of the show, Shaunie O'Neal, is divorced from NBA star, Shaquille O'Neal.

Jennifer Williams, is in the middle of a divorce, from retired basketball player, Eric Williams. Royce Reed is single after breaking up with basketball player, Dwight Howard. Gloria Govan and Laura Govan are both single women, who have children for basketball players.

Evelyn Lozada, with former fiancé, Antoine Walker. She is now engaged to football player Chad Ochocinco.

Last but not least, Evelyn Lozada, dated basketball player, Antoine Walker, for 11 years and was his finance, but the relationship ended on a sour note. One wonders why he didn't marry Lozada after all that time? Was he scared. Literally! Could it be her mean streak that is present on the show. She's beautiful, but grumpy like one of Snow White's dwarfs.

"Basketball Wives"

Contentious reality star, Evelyn Lozada, of the show "Basketball Wives" is demanding a higher appearance fee, according to TMZ. The news was published today, as it was revealed the women on the program are currently making $7,500 per episode, but Lozada, who got her butt kicked in the finale by Tami Roman, is holding out for $20,000 for every show shot (not literally).

Evelyn Lozada and fiancé Chad Ochocinco

Last week, when Lozada quit "Basketball Wives" via the internet, the Judiciary Report did state it was a money issue, "Exactly how much more money did O'Neal offer Lozada to possibly allow Roman to head butt and drop kick her in season three" (Shaunie Says No One Is Leaving "Basketball Wives"). The issue has now revealed itself as a contractual dispute for increased earnings.

Evelyn Lozada

Side Bar: On "Basketball Wives" they keep making mention of their "circle." However, with the way they behave and attack each other, one would think it is a circle of hell. One would also think they had the nuclear codes for the nation and have to protect it in some secret "circle."
