Lozada’s most recent request for a restraining order against Chijindu has been denied by a judge who said the matter is more appropriately handled through the lawsuit for defamation she has already filed.

Evelyn sat down with Bossip to discuss the misconceptions fans have about her after this most recent season of VH1’s BBWLA. People think she’s a “bully” and Lozada said she has realized that her “outspokenness could be misconstrued for something that it’s really not.”

And that’s something she willing to work on telling the website, “I’ve thought long and hard about this and concluded that there is a difference in how my directness and candor is received by those I personally know and those I don’t. I will do better…”

But what Evelyn does want to make perfectly clear to her fans and critics alike is that she is not a racist.

“With respect to the question around racism, nothing could be further from the truth. For anyone to call me a racist or a bigot against my own people is simply bananas and misinformed. 90% of the people I work with are people of color, and 98% are women. And the same numbers, if not higher, apply to my personal businesses. Besides, last time I looked in the mirror, I was a woman of color–who has to, more often than not, navigate through unchartered “real life” discrimination. Addressing false claims about racism and bigotry seems to be a waste of valuable time.”

Instead, Lozada wants to focus on her businesses, including  a romance novel “The Perfect Date,” which hit bookstores in June, the release of her CBD Skincare Line “BX Glow Skincare” and her Evelyn Lozada Foundation (ELF), which works to transform society’s response to domestic violence and the overall empowerment of women and children.

Lozada said she’d welcome any invitation to return to BBWLA Season 9 and that she thinks any possible resolution to her ongoing drama with OG is a question best left for OG to answer.

“I treat people how I want to be treated, and I will react if I’m being treated badly—I’m human. What I will never do is cry wolf, act like a victim, or manufacture a storyline to remain relevant.”

The feud between VH1’s ’Basketball Wives’ stars Evelyn Lozada and OG Chijindu just keeps going on and on, as Lozada has just gone to court requesting a restraining order against Chijindu.

According to TMZ, Evelyn (who has had a history of violent outbursts on the show) filed legal docs asking for OG to stay away from her in light of all their beef over the past few months. 

While a judge has yet to rule on Evelyn’s request for a restraining order, this is just the latest episode in an ongoing battle now that the season has wrapped.

Just days ago, Lozada sued OG for defamation and infliction of emotional distress, claiming OG called her “a racist bigot” on social media, and it caused her to miss out on several endorsement deals.

The drama started on September 11th, when Evelyn posted a picture of a laughing orangutan on her IG story with a caption saying, “Nobody watches you harder than the people that can’t stand you.”

OG must’ve been watching and allegedly took offense to the post and responded with a post that read, “Wow, so now black women are monkeys. Everyone boycott this trash box you are disgusting.” OG never mentioned Evelyn by name, but apparently, for Evelyn, it was clear who she was referring to.

Throughout the season, the ladies shared their individual issues with OG, including her arrogance, aggression, and nosiness, but by the end, the former football player was isolated and branded as the aggressive castmate. However, as the incident unfolded on television, fans came to OG’s defense after she called out the cast and crew for their hypocritical behavior. 

For OG, the fact that she hadn’t laid a hand on any of the castmates, while Evelyn Lozada had a history of violent behavior, including, but not limited to, throwing bottles and drinks, was hypocritical. OG also highlighted Malaysia’s behavior after she threw a table at Jennifer Williams last year, questioning why she hadn’t been labeled aggressive. 

But apparently, according to sources behind the scenes, OG’s aggression extended far behind the television screen. In fact, “The whole thing about OG being aggressive actually started BEHIND the camera,” a source told @bossipofficial. “She’s been harassing Viacom executives behind the scenes as well as execs in the production of offices.”

“During the season, she was constantly cussing out crew members for the most trivial things like cords being on the floor and in the way of her walking,” the source continued. “Or not having her water on room temperature.” 

“She was telling crew members and show execs that she would like to be addressed as Princess because she’s better than everyone,” the source told Bossip. “The aggressive thing didn’t come from nowhere. She caused a huge scene after cussing out TSA at the airport on the way to Costa Rica. THEN she got into a full-blown argument with someone on the plane over a window seat. The aggression storyline stems from a lot of off-camera issues that ended up spilling over onto television.”

Despite the ongoing drama, OG had not been fired from the show. In fact, Shaunie recently revealed that on an Instagram Live, but the source confirmed to Bossip. “There was a time Shaunie personally pulled OG to the side to let her know she appreciated her. She told her she was doing a good job of keeping the dialogue going among the cast for content.”

But, apparently, other castmates weren’t as inviting. 

“She’s told a couple of cast members that she worked really hard to get on “Basketball Wives” and everybody will know her name now that she’s made it,” the source said, adding that “She conjured up this colorist story to get the fan base’s attention.” 

 “She’s been overheard saying that society is extremely sensitive to racism and colorism right now and that’s the narrative she wants to use, so the world knows her name. This is why no one else from the cast has joined her with these allegations because everyone knows it’s not to be true,” the source continued. 

If that wasn’t enough, the source even detailed the drama over the separate set, which was shown in the preview for the reunion. 

“Tami Roman requested to film from another location because she didn’t want to be on set with Evelyn,” the insider told BOSSIP. “So it was put in the budget for production to have two sets. Since there was money being spent on two sets, they wanted to utilize the space where it made sense, so they were going to have Tami, CeCe, OG, and were considering Jackie as well, on one set, then everyone else on the other. It was kind of up in the air until everyone got to the studio that day. Evelyn had also requested not to be on the same set as OG, so it just made sense to put Tami and OG together.”

But when Tami didn’t show up, “Production decided to still have OG, CeCe and possibly Jackie on one set and everyone else on the other,” the source explained. “It was never the plan to have OG sit alone, it strictly was done that way trying to keep everybody happy in terms of Tami not wanting to film on the same stage as Evelyn and Evelyn not wanting to film on the same stage as OG.”

“Nothing was strategically planned around OG,” the source said.

Evelyn Lozada is suing “Basketball Wives” co-star Ogom “OG” Chijindu.

According to new documents obtained by TMZ, Lozada has filed a lawsuit against #OG for defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress after OG posted tweets about her allegedly being racist.

On September 11, 2019, Lozada said Chijindu reposted her Instagram story and wrote, “WOW, SO NOW BLACK WOMEN ARE MONKEYS? EVERYONE BOYCOTT THIS TRASHBOX YOU ARE DISGUSTING.” She also posted, “AND THERE IT IS.. YOU SHOW YOUR TRUE COLORS YOU RACIST BIGOT.” However, Lozada says, “This entire defamatory statement is false as stated” by OG. She claims her co-star even knew her statements were false when she said them.

In response to the tweet, Lozada fired back, saying she is of Hispanic descent, and her two children are of African and Hispanic descent. She also said she is the chairperson of the Evelyn Lozada Foundation, which raises money for domestic violence victims. But now, Lozado claims that she has “sustained serious financial harm through loss of income as well as serious and permanent injuries.” The amount Lozada wants in damages has yet to be specified. Attorney Corey Boddie filed the lawsuit, according to Yahoo Entertainment.

Sources say the incident between the women happened during the reunion taping. After the reunion, OG allegedly began attacking Lozada online with angry messages. The posts have reportedly been nonstop with some tweets mentioning violence. Lozada’s legal team has advised the TV star to file for a restraining order. But Lozada says she is concerned about OG’s “mental state.”
