As Evelyn Lozada prepares for the next season of "Basketball Wives," she recently told media that she believes in second chances...even for Chad Ochocinco.  Find out what she said inside....

While fans and critics scratch their heads about Rihanna and Chris Brown's "friendship," another ex-couple that seems to be rekindling the fire (on Twitter of course) is Evelyn Lozada (Rih's friend as well) and Chad Ochocinco.

Chad and Evelyn have been communicating on Twitter (most recently for Evelyn's birthday) where the two said they missed each other and Chad called hismelf Evelyn's "missing piece."

Now, Ev has been talking about second chances and it seems like Chad may have a shot at reuniting with his ex-wife after their head-butting fight over a condom receipt.  While speaking to RumorFix, (at the unveiling of her “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign), Ev talked about the aftermath of her split from Chad saying,  

“I have family and friends that have been very, very supportive. I took about a month, month and a half … I just went away for a while and had to regroup and refocus. I feel like I got another chance at life, I know that may sound crazy but that’s how I feel. I’m just like, ‘Ok, we need to keep going, I’m not gonna let any of that tear me down.’ I have good people around me so it’s been OK.”

And after Chad spoke to ESPN about his cheating and said he deserved a second chance, Evelyn told RumorFIx, 

“I do believe in second chances. I actually had someone ask me that recently, and I do. I’m not bitter, things happen and yeah, I do believe in second chances. I would want somebody to give me a second chances, and you never know.”

 

Hmmm.....it seems the reality star still has a place in her heart for Chad.  Do you think the two should reunite?

CAUGHT! Baller J.R. Smith & His Boo K.Michelle KISSING At The Club After The Knicks Game!

Posted: 14 Dec 2012 07:02 AM PST

These two have been spilling their love for each other all over twitter for months.  And last night, YBF spies caught them making out at a nightclub in NYC.  Check out our exclusive pic of singer & "Love & Hip Hop ATL" star K.Michelle & NY Knicks baller J.R. Smith sharing love in the club inside...

K.Michelle was hosting her signing party (for her deal with Warner Bros.) at Kiss & Fly in NYC last night.  And, of course, her on-again-off-again boo J.R. Smith stopped by after his big win against the Lakers.  And kisses and cuddles ensued.

J.R. has been pretty vocal on Twitter about having a crush on her.  And apparently they had something going on--which ended abruptly--because K recently spilled her heart during an interview saying she wishes she didn't push him away and could get him back.  And get him back she did.

Before last night's game, she was riding for her man after he tweeted a sassy "#SoWhat" about folks saying Kobe was in town and the Knicks better watch out.  K.Michelle said: "We #SOWHAT these niggas GAME TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The twosome spent the night in the club kissing, cuddling, and giving 0 f*cks who was watching & had something to say.  Toward the end of the night, J.R. & K. put themselves on blast tweeting each other (and their followers):

RT @TheRealJRSmith Hello world @kmichelle is going home with me! #hoodlove> u damn right baby me and u against the world. Keep hating

Oh?  And this morning, K. conveniently was tweeting lyrics to Meek Mill's song (and she deleted for some reason)

First we go together and break up, #Layup. Smh

Oh these two...

Rapper Lil' Kim, singer Cassie and model Sessilee Lopez have all been spotted in the same body hugging LaQuan Smith dress. Decide who ran it inside....

Model Sessilee Lopez, Lil' Kim and Cassie clearly love a sparkling skin tight mini dress--namely the LaQuan Smith sea urchin dress. LaQuan, an African American designer based in Queens, NY, lent the dress to Sessilee for a photo shoot recently.  Lil' Kim chose the designer's dress for a photo used as a part of her 12 days of Christmas campaign ths week.  Meanwhile, Cassie rocked the dress at the 2012 MET Gala after party.

Besides Lil' Kim's necklace, the ladies kept it simple and didn't rely on accessories...letting their curves do the talking.  

So.......

TV FAB: Antoine Walker, Sheree Whitfield & John Salley DISH About "BROKE" ATHLETES On "Don't Sleep"

Former NBA ballers Antoine Walker and John Salley joined former "RHOA" star Sheree Whitfield on BET's "Don't Sleep" to discuss why large numbers of professional athletes often end up broke.  Listen to what they revealed inside....

Former NBA champion Antoine Walker, who's most famous for wasting away his $110M fortune, appeared on BET's "Don't Sleep" last night to discuss some of the mistakes he made with handling his money as a professional athlete.  He was joined on the panel by former "RHOA" star Sheree Whitfield (who claims her ex-husband, former NFL star Bob Whitfield, isn't doing well financially) and John Salley who each offered their own perspective on the topic.  

John offered up some advice to young athletes saying the first thing they should do when signing a contract is get a financial adviser and a lawyer.  John suggested that the placement of those two persons far exceeds the need to hire an agent.  

Then, Sheree and Antoine had an interesting discussion about the role wives and girlfriends play when it come to the mishandling of money, especially when the athlete doesn't allow his partner to have any say in the finances.  Yeah..that got interesting.
