“This is the final season for me, Season 8. But I’m sure they’ll get another season and you’ll get to see all of the ladies.” Tami Roman

TAMI ROMAN IS READY FOR NEW EXPERIENCES

In a recent interview at the 2019 BET Awards, Tami, 49, revealed that she feels that the "Basketball Wives" experience has run its course for her.

The star, who was one of the original cast members in 2010, is now ready to try her hand at new projects.

“It takes up a lot of time to film Basketball Wives. We’re in that thing for like six or seven months at a time, so I just wanted the opportunity to have some free time to do some other things,” she said.

TAMI ROMAN KEEPS IT REALLY REAL

Tami attributes her success in reality TV to her sincerity, and the fact that she is 100% herself, on or off camera, and that is what the audiences love.

“I think in this day and era, people recognize that. You think you’re pulling the wool over the audience’s eyes or that people don’t recognize that. The audience is super super smart, they know when it’s not real, when it’s not authentic,” she said.
