LA Basketball Wives Gloria Govan and Matt Barnes Talk Love Off Camera

Gloria Govan the veteran of the group of LA Basketball wives has dealt with much criticisms about her relationship with NBA Lakers Matt Barnes.  From broken engagements to rumors of splits the couple speak with Essence to set the record straight.

Fans may think they know all about Matt and Gloria’s love from watching the show, but if you ask them, they’re just watching “good TV."

Matt, after hearing viewers' reactions to the show, what would you want them to know about Gloria?

MATT BARNES: Just how real and genuine she is. She can hit the red carpet, but then she’s at home with two pigtails taking care of the boys and making dinner and cleaning up -- really [I want them to know] just how real her life is. I think there’s a perception of “Basketball Wives” from the first show that they’re all about red carpets, clubbing, and throwing drinks, and honestly that’s just what sells and what VH1 wants. That’s not realistic; that’s not real life. She really is a mom just like everyone else out there

Gloria, what’s your response to the comments you hear about your relationship with Matt and the show?

GLORIA GOVAN: We’re comfortable with where we are in our relationship. We’re really solid and we’re happy. That’s why we canceled our wedding in the first place, because we realized it wasn’t for us -- it was for everyone else. It was for friends, family, viewers, everyone. That was probably the best thing we could have done. I think Matt is at a different place in his life right now. He’s 31 and he’s been in the league for ten years, which is a really long time, and he’s more ready. But I’m just, like, still not there yet. The last thing I want to do is put him in a headlock and drag him down the aisle. If the wheel’s not broke… why fix it?

Following in the footsteps of former NYC Housewives Bethaney Frankel who also had two-spin off shows.  Kim Zolicak has found her self a new gig with her baby daddy NFL Falcon player Kory Bierman .  We can only think Ne Ne Leakes wish this was her.  

Kim is a game-changer. She was the first housewife to release a single ["Tardy for the Party"] and just like Bethenny [Frankel], she fell in love and got pregnant while taping the show. She's the perfect choice for the next lady to get her own show."

While the series began filming its fourth season last April, 32 year old Zolciak is reportedly ready to step into her own spotlight, with boyfriend Kroy Biermann and their nearly four-month-old son Kroy Jagger Jr.

"Kim's new show is going to follow the very successful Bethenny formula," the source said. "A new mom and her fiancé trying to make everything work. Juggling baby, boyfriend and career. But instead of all those trips to a therapist that Bethenny made, expect Kim to work out her problems at the nail salon with friends."

Glirl Fight 2.0 Fabolous Breaks Silence "What Had Happen Was Laughing"

Um.. based on above pic, their definitely was some punches thrown and they look like they all landed on FAB. 

We are really hoping these two girls can just get along.  Fighting over twitter ish, how sad.  Anyway moments after the "allege" fight with R & B singer Ray J Fab took to the stage to perform with a noticeable red face and obvious bruising a round the eye.

Fab took to the airwaves last night on DJ Clue radio show to respond to the dust up.  Fab says,

"Who called in, Tupac?" Fab joked about Ray J's tirade on the morning show. "Tupac called in? That wasn't Ray J. You can't be serious. That wasn't Ray J. That wasn't him. That wasn't Willy Norwood Jr. That wasn't him. That wasn't Brandy brother."

During his conversation with Clue, Fab took a much more relaxed, calm approach noting that he doesn't take Ray J's threats serious at all but isn't quite happy with how the singer handled the situation in Vegas either.


Fabolous gave his account of the story where in his mind the issues stemmed from a few jokes he made about Ray J on Twitter.  Listen to a calm Fab explain his version of "what had happen was".

Peep video above.

Girl Fight... Ray J And Fabolous Throw Punches In Vegas (Audio Proof)

Now if this isn't some High School Sh**t?  It all  started over a little tweet from Fabolous see below:

So because Ray J got clowned on twitter and got his feelings hurt by Fab and his thousand of followers laughing at the tweet, this was Ray J response below:

Rapper Fabolous and singer Ray J reportedly got into it backstage at the Palms just before Fab was set to hit the stage. Ray J set things off when he punched the Brooklyn rapper in the face following a joke Fab made about the singer over the above mention tweet.

Eyewitnesses on the scene say the fight didn't end so well with Fabolous getting the best of Ray J who was eventually tossed from out the luxurious Palms hotel then later detained by Las Vegas cops.

Ray J himself confirmed half of the reports, that he was kicked out of the Palms and arrested following the incident. A number of celebrities were on hand for the incident including 50 Cent, Mayweather, Diddy and comedian Kevin Hart.

Jada Pinkett Smith Turns The Big 4-0 !!

Actress, producer, director, author, singer-songwriter, philanthropist entrepreneur, wife to one of Hollywood's living icons and mother to two of its budding stars, Jada Pinkett Smith's credits seem to go on and on.



And, as of Sept. 18, she's only 40.


Unfortunately for Mrs. Smith, she can't currently count "lead on a primetime series" as one of her descriptors. TNT recently canceled her nurse drama "Hawthorne" after three seasons -- which we are just fine.  While her birthday plans haven't been made public, it is safe to say she is probably doing some celebrating privately with the family.

A Hollywood mom who shows by example that working and raising a family successfully at the same time in a superior way, Jada Pinkett-Smith definitely deserves kudos for all her time in the public's eye being a positive role model.





Happy Birthday Jada Pinkett-Smith!
