It seems that Shaquille O’Neal and wife Shaunie have filmed a reality show pilot that was about their family life, and it must be pretty entertaining, because according to TMZ, cable network A&E is deciding if they should purchase the show. There’s just one catch: Shaunie has filed for a legal separation, and they are going from matrimony to acrimony. And alimony.
Shaunie has taken the kids and moved to L.A., leaving Shaq the house in Florida and plenty of time to devote to trying to get another championship ring for his collection. This summer she was shopping a reality show that would showcase the life of a professional athlete’s wife. Maybe she can shop one for life as a woman making a new life for herself after being a pro athlete’s wife.

Often after a season of our favorite reality show ends we wonder what the members of the cast are up to. Then there are times where we pretty much forget everyone in a season, like the Big Brother 9’s cast. It’s not that they were bad; it’s that the timing for the season was off. I mean seriously; Big Brother in winter? That just had fail written all over it, but I digress.
Season nine did have some interesting cast members. Sheila’s meltdown towards the end of the season was awesome. Crazy James was over all entertaining. Adam was cool, and Amanda was nice to look at it, even if she was annoying at times. Lucky for us in this clip below we don’t have to hear her talk. I’m not sure WHY she’s doing this, but let’s assume its for some sort of charity.
I mean really, reality stars don’t just do outrageous stunts to try and stay in the limelight….Right?

The Bachelor’s Jason Mesnick and Molly Malaney are getting married, or at least planning to get married. Jason proposed again, off camera, in New Zealand to his reality show choice Molly Malaney.
Jason caused a fan uproar when during the Bachelor reunion show, “After the Final Rose”, he dumped his first choice Melissa Rycroft for the runner-up, Molly. The couple went back to the location where he chose Rycroft, so that he could “make the right choice.” It was there that he proposed to Malaney.
Melissa Rycroft went on to star in Dancing With the Stars. She is currently engaged to insurance agent Tye Strickland, whom she had been dating off and on for two years.

Big Brother Winner Adam “Balla” Jasinski Busted for Drug Dealing

Some people worry about blowing that big $500,000 payload that they get from winning the reality show Big Brother on something stupid, so they invest it. Or they buy a business, or start a business or non-profit. Or, like an idiot, they use it to fund their drug dealing. Big Brother 9 winner Adam Jasinski was arrested in Boston for possession of oxycodone pills with the intent to sell.
Police say that he was in possession of almost 2,000 pills when he caught a plane from the airport at his home in Florida, headed to Logan airport. He then met a man who had previously been arrested for dealing drugs at the airport and they then drove to a strip mall to complete the transaction. It was there that he was arrested by the DEA.
Mr. Jasinski said that he had been using the money he won on Big Brother to fund his drug dealership, and had been selling up and down the East Coast. He was arrested in 2004 for possession of 20 pounds of marijuana. Check out this video from MyFoxBoston to see footage of his most recent arrest:

Tonya Explains Why She Seemed Ruined On The Ruins

Everyone that follows Real World or Real World/Road Rules challenges know that Tonya has never a prime example of “stable,” but on the premier episode of The Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Ruins she seemed especially crazy. Not too long ago Tonya posted a blog on her MySpace, letting the fans know why she was acting the way she was:
“I want to be perfectly honest with all ye’all I am not surprised by the episode. I have always prided myself on giving you the real Tonya, good or bad, ugly or embarrassing. Unfortunately this is exactly where i was at that point in my life. I was just coming out of a insane marriage and had kinda lost myself and thought that i was ready to be in the spot light of the challenge again.Truth be told we are all human. So i got drunk, i got stupid, i embarrassed the hell out of myself. Then i sober up and realized i was being a ass. So I stepped up to the plate and did what tonya usually does. KICK ASS!
I love that my teammates underestimate me, but what they don’t realize is i never underestimate myself. I was pretty damn proud of myself for busting out a win in the first ever Ruins. Don’t get me wrong i was scared as hell, but at the end of the day in a face off your true colors will shine. I did my job and the difference between past challenges and now is that for the first time in the history of challenges, i had my teams support. If you watch the episode, if wasn’t half assed cheering, it was genuine.
On this season I will unravel and ravel back up again. I can guarantee i will leave my heart on the table regardless of the outcome.
~Tonya
Evelyn and my fight was over more then a few drinks. The reason why i lost it on her was because she chose to out me infront of a group of people about a very sensitive and private matter. She took something that i trusted her with and put it on blast for everyone to judge. I couldn’t believe that she would choose to hurt me in such a deep way. Sometimes personal matters go beyond the show. Its one thing to make fun or pick on your team mates, its another thing to put personal and private life on display. My outrage was do to this ……. and a few drinks.”
