Well, you KNOW I had to talk about Shaunie and Shaq. From the title of this blog alone you know what I think. But let me tell you why I think this woman is a smart cookie. First, let’s do a little context. Cuz, what’s life without context. Milling around in the dark, I say. Well, there are few instances in America where a woman earn hundreds of millions dollars doing a job. I can only think of music superstars and movie superstars. Sports sorta. Remember the WNBA? It’s still around, but who watches? Uh, no one. Anyway, fast forward. You’re a cute, sassy young Black co-ed. A seven foot Black giant takes an interest in you and…..you end up married to a NBA superstar. Of course, this after he sleeps around and ends up in a Professional Ho’s tell all book, gives you three babies (you helped make them, no doubt), and you sign some SUPER, ironclad prenuptial agreement. You know you love your man, but you know the statistics of divorce. Shit, Juanita and Michael got divorced! So, you begin taking money that you LEGALLY have access to and build a nest egg, build a possible escape route. You set up your own accounts. You buy property. All in just your name. You take the money you earn and maximize it to its fullest economic potential. You have in mind the importance of protecting YOURSELF and the KIDS, because he certainly protected himself with the prenuptial agreement (which by the way, we don’t know WHAT it said or how it left her in case of a divorce or separation). I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again here: Shaunie is one smart bitch. Booo-yah, Shaq!

But let's guess who the following person could be:
Brillant...probably not. Lucky as hell... absolutely. A major catastrophe waiting to happen... definitely.
And the winner is: Kimora Lee Simmons.
I had the misfortune of catching a few minutes of her show tonight (in the midst of channel surfing). Ol' girl is a mess. Her daughters are precious. And the people that work for her have patience beyond belief. But Ms. Simmons has issues -- too many to name. I am not totally disgusted by her (and probably never will -- as I sincerely love her Baby Phat purses -- the gawdiness and shine were clearly designed for me and me alone). But, incredibly flawed people with highly unlovable personalities should not have reality shows. Isn't that right, Anna Nicole?
