Pink-Slip-Problems :: Were Royce, Jennifer Williams & Kesha Fired from Basketball Wives?
Last week, after the reunion show had already been filmed, Shaunie O’Neal confirmed that if she was to return for another season, three of the current cast members would need to be removed from the show. In an interview with The Insider, she explained:
“Three [from Miami]…Immediately. No questions asked. Not anything personal, just not where I’m trying to go. Not on the same page. … If I would like this franchise to keep going, yeah, three would have to go.”
While she never referenced who the three would be, rumor has it that cast members have already been released and not invited for another season. Allegedly, Royce Reed, who has been on the show since the first season, has been released. Reportedly, her contract was not released because she’s not allowed to discuss her son’s father, NBA baller Dwight Howard. Royce was also not allowed to film with Shaunie and Evelyn. Sources also tell TMZ that Jennifr Williams has also been released, mainly because of the lawsuit against Evelyn’s assistant, Nia Crooks. Lastly, we hear that Kesha’s contract MAY not be renewed because she was “boring”. No official confirmation or comment from Kesha, Royce or Jennifer’s camp has been shared. A VH1 rep shares,
“We don’t comment on casting until everything is final. Thanks for checking in.”
If the rumors are true, would you watch without Kesha, Royce and Jennifer? Do you think that they released the correct cast members?
