‘Basketball Wives’ Star OG Breaks Her Silence On Evelyn Lozada Using The N-Word & Calling Her Ugly!
The drama between VH1 Basketball Wives stars Ogom “OG” Chijindu and Evelyn Lozada created a firestorm with accusations of colorism, racism and bullying.
Ogom “OG” Chijindu is breaking her silence since the season wrapped in October. In her first interview with Kendra G of Chicago’s WGCI — she breaks down the history with Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson and much more.
Things exploded between OG and Evelyn Lozada during a cast trip to Costa Rica in season 8. OG dropped a bombshell — exposing Evelyn Lozada’s ex-husband NFL player, Chad Ochocinco, had romantically pursued her — this revelation set Evelyn on fire and she exploded with rage. A blowout fight ensued and the cast was split down the middle.
“So I knew Chad from the Bangles, from being an athlete. I had no idea what his dating life was like. I had no idea who he talked to and I had no idea about Basketball Wives.” OG tells the Chicago radio host. “

She also noted that Evelyn Lozada tried to get a restraining order against her but was denied, which could spark more drama if OG is back on the show in the new season.
