SHAQ & SHAUNIE WERE SHOOTING FOR REALITY SHOW
THE FACTS
TMZ reports that Shaquille and Shaunie O’Neal shot a pilot for a reality show prior to Shaunie’s filing for legal separation.
THE SPIN
According TMZ, the O’Neals have been pitching out a show called Love Shaq, which sought to show off their family life. But, obviously, that’s not going to pan out given Shaunie just filed for legal separation and the two are on the verge of a nasty divorce. However, A&E is apparently “considering” whether or not to purchase the show.
It’s interesting to read reports that Shaq and Shaunie sought to follow the Jessica Simpson/Nick Lachey model for reality TV relevance. I say interesting because word around LA is that Shaunie’s been pitching a show on life as an NBA wife, or life after I should say for a few months now.
She’ll certainly have a lot to show off if some network picked up the latter option. Would you want to watch, though? And don’t lie to me ya’ll, because the blog comments on the subject of NBA wives don’t lie!

Probably Life After Shaq if I was going to bother to watch! We know all about Shaq. I’d be more interested in his soon-to-be ex-wife and her life.
could be intersting based on what just happened, if they included that stuff in the show it might be worth watching, otherwise it will most likely be boring
Neither~ the reality is the marriage is over and she’s going to take him to the bank!! Cha Ching!!
Honestly, i would want to be greedy and see both a Life with and after Shaq. I think both would be very interesting and intertaining. I know Shaq did some shady sh*t, but i wish they would reconcile their differences and get back together.
I probably won’t watch…I can’t get into reality shows anymore.
The timing is probably not good for a project like this because of all the tension between them. Plus, it would invade their kids’ privacy during a very difficult period.
I am not interested at all in watching this. After a divorce you would think that she would focus on raising her children instead of staying in the public light.
Ask yourself this question: “What couple did a reality show and ended up together?”
I am so sick of all the reality shows. what is this, a way for the powers that be thinking this is entertaining. Pay the actors to make television shows and stop putting this mess on my television. There’s enough sorry commericals to pay these people. The wannabes are getting on my nerves. I use to like watching television until some preverts thought these reality shows was entertaining.
I agree with Lizz, I can’t stand reality shows.
