In a gorgeous emerald Grecian gown with plenty of embellishments, Jen Williams is covering J'Adore magazine...complete with a diamond headpiece. Looks like she's trying to prove she's more angelic than she really is. We'll see when the new season of the original "Basketball Wives" kicks off this month.
And "Basketball Wives: LA" cast member Laura Govan is showing off her newly slim post-4-babies body. In a fitted navy ruched gown with embellished wide straps, Laura dishes all on her dislike for Shaunie O’Neal and her 10 year relationship with fiancé and father of her children NBA all star Gilbert Arenas:
On Shaunie O’Neal:
"I don’t have a relationship with Shaunie and I never will. The information she was given about Shaq and I was false, and she took it and ran with it. I didn’t appreciate it at all and for that reason I will never speak to her again. I don’t have beef with her. If we see each other, I won’t chin check her, but that’s why I chose to do Basketball Wives LA. I wanted people to see exactly who I am opposed to what you heard on Season One: Miami. I mean, there were five grown women talking about me and they had no idea who I was. That was unfair, but it goes to show you where their mentality was."
On Developing A Brand:
"My kids are my world! So right now I'm in the process of creating a product line for women & children. The line will include a workout DVD for new moms who've just given birth and want to lose their pregnancy weight, children books & more! A lot of people suggested I do stuff like write a book or cosmetics, etc. but I really wanted to do something that was true to me."
On Gilbert Arenas:
"We love each other. Yes, we have our ups and downs, but we have four kids together and like I tell most people, we are doing better than most married couples. I knew the person before I knew the athlete. Whether he still plays ball or not, I’m still going to be married to the person that I fell in love with. We're not announcing the date yet. When we do, it will be small and intimate. We actually got engaged three years ago. That ring that everyone saw is three years old. If anything, he needs to upgrade that ring. We’ve been together for 10 years."
On Growing Up In Oakland, California:
"I have nine brothers and sisters and we grew up well; both parents had jobs but we worked hard for things we wanted. My dad has always owned some type of club or jazz venue, and we worked there growing up. I’ve bartended, did janitorial work, I was a waitress as well as management, so I was a jack of all trades growing up and I come from a working family."
The other 2 covers are graced by E! channel's Guiliana Rancic and soap star Brandon Beemer. The issue hits newsstands on February 13th!
