K. Michelle shading J.R. Smith again? K. Michelle has been making some major moves ever since she became a new edition to the world of reality TV, landing a casting spot with Love and Hip Hop Atlanta. And with the success that the show has seen with just one season, K. Michelle seems to be taking full advantage of it as her involvement with the show has caused her fan base to grow, even though she lost a few along the way, and has opened major doors for her, K. Michelle landing herself a major record deal with Warner Bros. not too long ago, a record deal being something that not all artists associated with the show are looking to get. While K.’s career has started to take off in the direction that she’d been hoping it would do for long time, she hasn’t seen the same success with her love life. But it looked like for a moment that K. had found herself someone that she was really feeling as she became romantically linked to NBA player J.R. Smith. Only for a short period of time though were the two involved as things started to fizzle out, and even got a little ugly at one point once one of K.’s friends got involved.

Even though she backs down from no one, K. looked to have met her match with J.R. and even admitted to being the one who caused a rift in what they had going on and wanted to fix things with him. That thought of hers went out the window though after J.R. continued to play her on Twitter, only to come back and apologize for it later. After the way things turned out between her and J.R., K. Michelle claimed that she was officially done with dating bad boys and was in search of a calm, chill guy who could balance her out. While K. is supposedly moving on from J.R. and all the other bad boys out there, the two are still mentioned together in the media. And it’s getting to the point where J.R.’s romance with K. Michelle is getting him just as much, if not more, press than what he actually does on the basketball court, at least that’s how K. sees it as she shaded him for hurting her and claims that his association with her is the reason behind his new found fame. She tweeted:

Apparently, K. Michelle was referring to J. R. Smith making headline news in the New York Daily News yesterday. The publication wrote about J.R. Smith tweeting a picture of K. Michelle’s butt the other day, but quickly deleting it. Even though K. Michelle admits she has feelings for the basketball star, after he humiliated her on Twitter a couple of weeks ago, she’s convinced he is only using her for attention and wishes to move on.

Although J.R. Smith is a professional ball player in the NBA, his name began to get circulated in the media much more once he got involved with K. Michelle. The same goes for her alleged abusive ex-boyfriend music producer Memphitz who is moving forward with his lawsuit against K. Michelle, Mona Scott-Young and VH1.

Interestingly enough, J.R. Smith also has ties to another Love and Hip Hop star. Recently, he got fined by the NBA for tweeting pictures of Tahiry’s butt after her controversial break up with Joe Budden.

  1. I honestly didn’t know who Memphitz was before the show. And J.R. Smith isn’t even a starter so…yeah, I agree with her.

  2. He did WHAT to Tahiry?! He’s messy as hell. K. Michelle needs to not walk, but RUN away from this fool. Clearly, he’s an attention whore.

  3. She gets on my nerves, but she sure did make those two fools relevant, right along with herself. Love and Hip Hop Atlanta got them all some blog time.

  4. I’m riding with Kimberly on this one. J.R. Smith loves attention and he likes to mess with chicks that can get him that instead of working hard on the basketball court.

  5. Well honestly, J.R. Smith and K. Michelle are both D-List celebs at best. Reality television hasn’t made anyone A List except Kim K.

  6. I’m not sure how she can call him out when she was using him too. Had he not been a basketball player, she wouldn’t have been interested. IJS.

    1. Matter of fact, J.R. Smith made the headline, while she was merely mentioned. Nice try though K. Michelle, we all have to cope with breakups with a little delusion. I feel you boo.

  7. From the little preview of the next season of LHHATL they showed last night, it looks like she’s going to spend a lot of her time chasing J.R. Smith. Sigh…

  8. Actually, J.R. is a good basketball player. He mainly just makes news for his career. He doesn’t need attention from urban gossip blogs, he was doing just fine before they started posting about him. K. Michelle is so delusional it’s sad.

  9. LMAO I needed this laugh! I watch basketball, J.R. Smith is a star in his own right. The only person she made relevant was Memphitz, and he doesn’t even need to be famous, he’s in A&R for goodness sakes. She needs to take a stadium of seats.

  10. Why doesn’t she ever @ him when she tries to throw shade? I see she deleted the tweet too. @ him so we know it’s real Kimberly. If not, shut up and move on.
