Source: HelloBeautiful / VH1
As fans of the iconic franchise, Basketball Wives, we've watched Jennifer Williams and Evelyn Lozada's friendship go through many stages. The duo, who entered the franchise as besties, faced challenges stemming from romantic relationships to family life and everything in between. This season, their friendship was put to the test again after Evelyn voiced her concerns over Jennifer's marriage to Christian Gold. Evelyn accused Christian of being a scammer and, well, you can imagine how that went.
We caught up with Jennifer, Evelyn, and Jackie Christie ahead of the premiere of season 12, and the trio dished on why they returned for another season, the status of Jennifer and Evelyn's friendship, and the most fashionable of the Basketball Wives set.
'These are my sisters. It's a family. We're dysfunctional at times, but it's a lot of love there and we grow together and we grow forward,' said Jackie Christie, who was seated between Jennifer and Evelyn.
Jennifer Williams and Evelyn Lozada's Friendship
CLOSE
Speaking of sisterhood, Evelyn opened up about the state of her and Jen's friendship, which has become strained. If you caught the first two episodes of Basketball Wives, Jennifer found love in Christian and married him despite concerns from her friends about his legal history. In one scene, Jennifer claps back, asking Evelyn why she continues to refer to her husband as a felon when Evelyn's daughter, Shaniece Hairston, had a child by rapper The Game, who has a long rap sheet.
Despite the tense interaction, Jennifer and Evelyn were 'cordial' during press time. 'We're grown women,' Evelyn explained. 'We're adults, we may agree to disagree and you know, the show's gonna air, so that's gonna add a whole layer of whatever else is to come because, you know, you get to see what that person was saying, what she was saying, vice versa, so, but I think you know, we're just mature women and we can coexist, we can do this, come, you know, do press, promote the show.'
While Jennifer was mostly quiet, she jumped in to talk about her fashion sense and love for labels, saying, 'I've been a fashion girl since I was young. I always was into fashion and just beauty in general and you know, I guess it feels good that people kind of correlate me with fashion because it's something I love and you know sometimes you get it right, sometimes you get it wrong, but that's that's the thing about fashion. But I would say my fashion sense is more like I try and be a little edgy but classic at the same time.'

Fantastic Four: A Rock Named Jennifer Replaced The Thing on First Steps' Set
had a rock named Jennifer used as a stand-in for The Thing. The upcoming Marvel Studios production is one of the most anticipated movies of 2025. Directed by Matt Shakman, the movie features Bachrach alongside Joseph Quinn, Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, and many more. Matt Shakman recently sat down for a conversation and revealed that they used a rock they named Jennifer as a stand-in for The Thing on The Fantastic Four: First Steps' set. The makers used CGI and performance capture on Ebon Moss-Bachrach to bring the Thing to life on-screen. However, the rock named Jennifer also aided them in the process. Recounting the process, the director told Empire, 'We went out to the desert and found a rock that looked exactly how we thought The Thing should look, and we filmed it in every single shot that The Thing appears in in the movie, under every lighting environment.' Moreover, Ebon Moss-Bachrach chimed in to express his thoughts on his character, the Thing, AKA Ben Grimm's presentation on screen. He conveyed, 'It's a little bit heady to think about all the hundreds of people that are helping animate this character. I just had faith that they would make my performance so much cooler. I'm very, very happy with the way Ben looks.' Additionally, The Punisher star asserted that he felt connected to the Thing, as he hails from New York as well. He further spoke of The Fantastic Four character's association with creator Jack Kirby. Moss-Bachrach said, 'He's a Lower East Side guy. A lot of this character was a homage to his father, and that, to me, is very meaningful.' Meanwhile, The Fantastic Four: First Steps is all set to come to theaters next month on July 25.

Jennifer Hudson Seemingly Didn't Listen To A Word Eddie Murphy Said In A Recent Interview, And People Are Aghast
On Thursday, Eddie Murphy revealed that his son Eric had secretly married Martin Lawrence's daughter Jasmin after four years of dating. For reference, Eddie and Martin are good friends and even starred in two movies together back in the '90s, but Jasmin previously said that she didn't meet her now-husband through their famous fathers. She told InTouch Weekly back in 2022: 'My uncle actually introduced us — it wasn't even our dads, and they've done two movies together. They're friends. I don't even know, it's crazy, but we met through my uncle, and, you know, we became really good friends." 'Obviously, we have similar backgrounds, so we understood each other on a certain level, and, over time, it just became more,' she added at the time. The two got engaged in November 2024, and during his recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Eddie revealed that the lovebirds had blindsided them all by sneaking off to get married in private.

Alluding to Eddie's talent as a singer, Jennifer started off by asking: 'Are you going to sing at your son's… Or is it your daughter's wedding, right?' Clarifying that it was, in fact, his son, Eddie replied: 'Actually, they got married, like, two weeks ago. They went off. Everybody was making the big wedding plans, then they decided they wanted to do something quiet, just the two of them, and they got married.'

But Jennifer didn't appear to pay any attention, saying in response: 'Uh oh! Did you sing at the wedding, Eddie?' 'No, they didn't have a wedding!' Eddie explained again, to which Jennifer replied: 'Oh no?' 'No, they went off and got married in the church; they just had the two of them and the preacher. They had a quiet little thing,' Eddie repeated, before adding: 'I think we'll have a big party or something, they ran off and got married.' 'OK,' Jennifer said. 'Will you sing then?' 'Will I sing at the wedding?! No!' Eddie then exclaimed. Sharing a video of this exchange to X, a viral tweet called out Jennifer's interviewing skills, writing: 'The man said they went off just the two of them went off and got married, she's gonna then ask him 'did you sing at the wedding'. Baby, pay attention omg.' Fox via X @TheShadeRoom / Via At the time of writing, this tweet has been seen more than two million times, and racked up tens of thousands of likes, retweets, and replies. And one of the most popular replies reads: 'she doesn't listen to a single thing people say.' 'Girl ain't listening to even one word!! She has her marks to hit and she gone hit them,' somebody else wrote. While another tweeted: 'She asked him THREE times are you going to sing. WOMAN THEY ARE ALREADY MARRIED MY GOD.' 'You can really tell she has a list of questions and is not listening to people's answers,' one more claimed, and someone else agreed: 'That's the difference between a journalist and a celebrity with a talk show.' Others had a similar reaction to the original video, with one writing: 'he said multiple times they didnt have a wedding and she keeps askin if he went 😂' 'she didnt pay not nah attention to what he said asking stupid questions after the man JUST said they eloped,' someone else echoed. Another pointed out: 'Not only did she still ask about him singing, even though he had just said the two married alone, she didn't even know if it was Eddie's son or daughter."
