Yesterday Evelyn Lozada went in on Jennifer “Purple Contacts” Williams and their shady friendship. Today she spoke out on why she went in and if her relationship with Jennifer is over for good. Via TheInsider.com: TheInsider.com: I saw your tweets last night! First, can you tell me how long you and Jennifer have been friends? Evelyn: We’ve been friends for about twelve years. We met in 1999, and her soon to be ex husband was playing for the Boston Celtics and my ex fiancé was playing on the same team. We ended up meeting at the games. TheInsider.com: So this friendship wasn’t just for the show? Evelyn Lozada: No! I was in Jennifer’s wedding! You meet a lot of friends over the years, but we remained close. We went to family functions together. I was the one who got Jennifer on the show. TheInsider.com: How did the rift between you two start? Evelyn Lozada: The relationship was a little strained prior to her doing a radio interview about Chad (Evelyn’s fiancé). It started when it was all over the web that he had proposed. My thing is this: if you were proposed to, or you were with whomever, no matter what my opinion is, I’m still going to be like ‘hey girl if you’re happy, I’m there. Let me see the ring.’ She never asked to see my ring, she NEVER congratulated me. She could have gave a sh*t.
A few months ago, while on the coattails of summer’s craziness, I lived through a strange experience of friendship that left me to the tendency of some friends to take, take, take… and take. Call them what you may, I like to think of these types of relationships as “convenience friendships.” This particular story involves a man – a player – that came between a sister and me. It all began when a series of events led me to introduce two single friends, each from a separate corner of the lonely-hearts club. She, a dynamic sister with a bright future glazing in her horizon, sociable, a people-pleaser, ever-so insecure, met him, an attractive, slightly pretentious man, whose confidence, self-righteousness and charm could blow anyone’s pants off. I went along with the venture, trying my best to facilitate what was an unlikely combination. She had returned from abroad at the beginning of the year and was detached from the life she left behind. But I, like others in our friendship group, was excited to hear about her stories, supposing that her brilliant mind was ticking over with exciting plans and was full of stories about new people and far-away lands. On the other side of the equation, he and I had begun seeing each other quite often on the weekends, having a crazy time between us and with other frivolous friends. He spoke about his desire to calm down a little, to find someone with the prospect of longevity. So, when circumstances led them to meet, there was clear and open interest on both sides. As the weeks went by I stood on the sidelines answering the questions of one about the other and tried my best to bridge some of the obvious differences between them. But it appeared that nothing was going to work between them. He had told me that he had been sleeping around, and even took another sister home on an evening in which she had called me to chase information about where he was. This came in his relationship disclaimer, that so as long as there was no future between them, and the attempts to make something work had reached an expiry date, he was free to do as he wished and with whomever he pleased. She on the other hand was reappearing in my life quite sporadically to gain information about what he was doing, where he was and what I knew about him. It was strange because, aside from staying at my place when she first returned from abroad, I would only hear from her when she wanted something. It reached the point where I gathered that even she was aware of this, telling me one day “Let’s catch up soon, girl. I feel like I haven’t seen you at all.” I was not too concerned at this point; I was busy. But, it was all to boil over after one wild evening when he and I shared a kiss at a club. Having been told that nothing was going on between them, I fell to his charms and was one of two women to be swooned that evening with his kiss. I realized that what I had done was foul when I turned to see him with that another sister. Indignant, I left the club. The next day I spoke with him to clear the air, only to discover that he and my friend, she, were seeing each other that evening for round two. At this point my anger about having been used as a go-between-girl between two unmatched people had reached its climax. After months of being there for both of them, I was eventually pushed to redundancy, the friendships began to end and my interactions with both faded. I also can’t overlook the notion that I was slightly jealous. Two friends, who I had known for 2 years on separate grounds, had run off together and were leaving me behind. So one evening, I directed a comment to him, amongst friends, that questioned the worth of his friendship. Given how proactive he was in broadcasting to the world a sense of moral superiority and excellence in friendship, he took my criticism poorly and defensively. I considered him a dirty rat, so I didn’t care about how he reacted. But then, the following day, I received a phone call from her questioning me about the evening in which he and I had kissed. He had obviously told her to spite me and I imagined this was accompanied with the usual dialogue of “she must love me,” which he regularly uses to justify burnt bridges with women (those he burns with men are because they are jealous of his style and charm.) Cornered, I asked to meet with her the next day during my lunch break. She accepted but brought along a mutual friend so to avoid any conversation about what had happened. This was a clear indication she was not interested in hearing what I knew. I told her anyway. A week later, having boiled over in self-reflection, I sent her an SMS with a stern warning her to watch her mouth with other people. She had fragrantly spread the word amongst mutual friends that I was the saboteur between them as they went about sewing the seeds of their rock-sold connection. I doubted, at this point, that she believed me when I told her about him sleeping around. This sickened me in my self-righteousness because I knew they were having unprotected sex, for which he would take no responsibility. A typical player – selfish and irresponsible. The entire scenario left me feeling foolish and ashamed. Aside from considering him a friend of mine – an arrogant man with little no consideration of other people’s dignity – I had also fallen victim to subtle ways of a sister’s convenience friendship. In all of this, I did things I was not at all proud of. I was very wrong to have kissed him without appreciating fully that she still may have had feelings for him by virtue of not knowing he was sleeping around and meeting new women. Her interaction with me was so sporadic, and always so focused on her needs with him, that I was never given the opportunity to know that she was still pursuing him at that point. But, as they began seeing each other again, with talk of them moving in together, a common enemy for them both has been the best method to cover up their obvious differences. Ultimately, my former sister got what she wanted – to fill a void in her life with a charming man. My services to her have dried up and so too has the friendship. I scratch my head occasionally and wonder whether or not I should still care about her. But then I realize that it was a lesson learned for me and that so too will it be a lesson for her when she finally gets burned. And that is how one friendship of convenience reached its inevitable end. “I Love My Husband, But I Want His Friend & I’m Thinking Of Leaving With This Guy” Is It Possible To Re-Do Romance?
We all saw it coming. “Basketball Wives” stars Jennifer Williams and Evelyn Lozada are no longer friends. The first signs of the BFF split happened on camera when Jen badmouthed Evelyn’s fiance Ochocinco during a radio interview. Many months – and several subliminal tweets – later, Jen has confirmed our suspicions. She told radio host TT Torrez : On her relationship with Evelyn Lozada I don’t think it;s any surprise that we don’t speak. If you follow me on Twitter, I don’t do subliminal tweets. I don’t throw jabs at my friends. I just kind of feel like even if we’re not speaking or whatever the case is, if you have my phone number, just text me or whatever. I don’t feel the need to put stuff on Twitter. I kind of use Twitter for whats it’s supposed to be for like networking, but it is what it is. Yeah, she threw a couple of jabs at me on Twitter and I’m not entertaining it because I don’t feel like that’s the arena to do so. I don’t have a problem with her. She has one with me. I definitely think there’s a bigger issue, but you guys will have to tune into Season 4 to figure it out. On whether she sees herself being friends with Evelyn ever again Anything is possible, to be honest with you. The whole reason why we’re not speaking, I think is really trivial. And I feel like there’s a bigger issue, but honestly, I don’t have a problem with Evelyn, she has a problem with me and at this point I’m like, Listen, whatever your problem is, I can’t be bothered. I’m trying to do bigger and better things. I am at a point in my life where I’m getting rid of all the negative energy in my life, including my soon-to-be ex. So my thing is like, nobody is exempt at this point and if you bring some negative energy and drama in my life, I am good.

When you notice that a friend suddenly won’t answer your text messages, tweets, texts or emails, this can be an unnerving and disturbing situation. According to About.com , the first sign that something could be ‘wrong’ with a friendship is often when you just don’t hear from your friend. Some people are not good at initiating conversation when something is wrong, so watch for these subtle signs that your friendship may be in trouble. 8 Signals That Tells You Your Relationship Is Over Emails and Phone Messages Go Unanswered When your friend just doesn’t return your messages, it’s a sign that something could be wrong. But, then again, your friend could just be busy. Or, it could mean that something is wrong. If your casual (“Hey, how’s it going?”) emails aren’t getting a response, try sending a more direct note indicating that you are worried about your friend. Don’t send a message that is angry or assuming, however. Avoid saying: “Why haven’t you emailed me? How come I always have to email you a couple times to get a response?” “What’s going on with you? I haven’t heard from you in ages?” “Aren’t you getting my messages? Why are you ignoring me?” These types of responses are worded to start an email fight rather than show concern about your friendship. Instead, say: “I haven’t heard back from you in a while and I’m concerned about you. Is everything okay?” Your Friend Is Going Through a Rough Time If your friend doesn’t get back to you, it can be very easy to assume that they are upset with you, but in fact, it may have nothing to do with you at all. Perhaps your friend is going through a rough time and for whatever reason (embarrassment, shame, shyness) they do not want to share with you. As a friend, you naturally want to help, but if your pal doesn’t want assistance, there is not much you can do besides let them know you are there for them. When Your Friend Is Angry With You It’d be great if all our friends could calmly tell us when we have done something to upset them. In reality, everyone is different, and they process anger and hurt in unique ways. Some people can recognize and address a situation right away. With these people, it is easy to work through a falling out. Other friends, however, will pull away in reaction to something we did. In these cases, when you send an “Is everything okay?” type of email, you’ll probably be met with anger. You might be confused since the last time you saw this person everything seemed fine. Before you get angry in return, try and calmly listen to what is being said. Perhaps your friend’s resentment has been building for a while and they just never expressed it before. Some people say nothing the first few times they feel slighted, only to “erupt” later on. In these cases, their habit may be to pull away and then become angry when you don’t automatically know what happened. When you and your friend have identified the problem, you can work through it. Then, make sure that you come up with a different way to communicate from that point forward, so that your friend will feel comfortable talking to you right away when there is an issue, rather than pulling away.

Jennifer Williams appeared to be very upset during the reunion of Basketball Wives season 2 about her nude photos being leaked on World Star Hip Hop. She ended her friendship with Royce Reed , who made it very clear she felt Jennifer leaked the photos herself. Evelyn Lozada was first to pull the someone leaked my nude photos act. Now her name is on the tip of everyone’s tongue. Could it be Jennifer wanted the same fame her best-friend obtained? We have reason to believe she did. Jennifer and Q, CEO of World Star Hip Hip are good friends. Would you be friends with the CEO of the site that debut your nude photos to the world? Q even refers to Jennifer as sis. Yeah I know, things that make you go hmm. After getting the exclusive from Fred the CEO of MediaTakeout . I think it is safe to say that Jennifer just may have leaked her own nude photos and so have many other celebrities. Celebrity nude photos are searched on google by millions everyday. A celebrity can get more views from leaked photos than posing for Playboy these days. Below is a conversation the two had on twitter over 4th of July weekend.

This morning I was greeted by my male co-worker with “What’s up with that girl Eric Williams?” Not the normal “Good Morning” I usually receive but this acknowledgment was more intriguing. Being that I missed the coveted Basketball Wives last night, I was oblivious to the fact that Eric Williams threw a drink in Jennifer’s face. The two are going through a bitter and seemingly endless divorce. It took Jenn years to finally come-to terms with divorcing the man who had cheated on her and for the most part neglected her feelings with no remorse. As I read several blogs to figure out why Eric would throw a drink in his almost ex-wife’s face, I realized that he absolutely no right to do so, especially after being the a**hole in their entire relationship and stint on Basketball Wives. Throwing a drink as a male, is probably the most b*tcha**ness I have seen (on Television) in a while. So here are my four things wrong with Eric throwing a drink in Jennifer’s face: 4. Throwing a drink is not the alternative for domestic violence. It does not make it any better than if you were to physically hit her. It’s all bad! 3. You did her wrong in the relationship, not the other way around: How dare you throw a drink, as if Jennifer dragged you through relationship trenches. If anyone is to throw a beverage it should be Jen, straight at the lump on your head! 2. You are a man! Men don’t throw drinks, especially at women. 1. Jen’s perm has been ruined and so has that fabric of lovely dress! The Interview That Ended Jennifer & Evelyn’s Friendship [VIDEO] “Basketball Wives” Star Jennifer Williams Finally Files For Divorce
