Jackie Christie Shades Shaunie & Jennifer + Addresses Evelyn’s Breakup with Carl Crawford

Jackie Christie recently opened up about Ta’Kari, Evelyn and Shaunie during her appearance on The Breakfast Club.

Here are the highlights of the interview.

On why Ta’Kari has decided to be distant:

“You know, it’s her choice. I love her, Charlamagne. I mean, I love all of my kids. I’ve always spoiled them. They’ve always lived a privileged life. It ain’t about the material things. It’s about me not having a lot when I was little and when I grew up and was successful, I made sure they had everything they needed and wanted. And I guess I was a little too overprotective and I gave them a little bit too much.”

She admitted that Ta’Kari’s true issue may be the fact that she is the only one who does share Doug as a biological father, but Jackie feels she and both Doug tried their hardest to make sure Ta’Kari never felt like the outcast.

When asked when Ta’Kari began to lash out and make accusations about her parenting, Jackie said:

“Probably right around when she started having kids and being with this guy she’s with. She wanted more. He wants more, ‘Well your parents got this. Why they ain’t buy you a Range Rover? Why they buy you a Toyota?’”

She then said that Ta’Kari is in Doug’s will and will get $8 million if he or Jackie passes away.

She also stated that she and Kari talk often and Kari told her she doesn’t know why all these things are being said about her parenting on the internet.

Jackie said she knew her grandson was burned but Ta’Kari told her she didn’t have to come out to see him because he was fine, and at the time, Jackie was in Atlanta doing a play. Jackie says Ta’Kari didn’t need a Go Fund Me campaign because she has insurance and the daycare paid for everything since they were at fault. She also said Ta’Kari told her that a friend is the one who created the campaign.

She also made a bold revelation and claimed she heard the Go Fund Me campaign raised over $19,000 and it went to tennis shoes and weed for Ta’Kari’s friends.

Despite being at odds with Evelyn, Jackie admitted that she does still regret what she said about Shanice:

“I do and I shouldn’t have repeated what I heard.”

She got real shady when she was asked about her relationship with Shaunie:

“I thought me and her was tighter than that and I don’t think that we’re not tight, I just think she got caught up. She brought Evelyn and had the intention of Evelyn coming and doing all of this big stuff and it didn’t happen. And Evelyn felt like, I’ma go and tear Jackie down, and that’s gong to be my storyline and build me up.’ But it just didn’t pop off like that.”

She threw more shade when she was asked if she thinks she could get fired for clashing with Shaunie:

“Not to throw Shaunie under the bus, people blame her to be the person to hire and fire. Shaunie don’t hire and fire. That ain’t my employer. I’m hired by Viacom, VH1 and Shed. That’s who cuts my checks. Shaunie is a cast member to me. And that’s why when people ask me do you feel uncomfortable with the Executive Producer being on the show, I’m like no because I’m an Executive Producer (of my own show).”

Jackie says it wouldn’t be smart for Shaunie to fire her because:

“I am the show.”

On Evelyn’s breakup with Carl Crawford, Jackie said:

“I had heard about it. The streets were talking a long time ago. So that’s what pissed me off. You’re on my show, the show that I’ve cultivated, I’ve been here the whole time, me and Malaysia. Now you’re perpetrating. You want to do all this and have kids…but you’re falsifying things for the public image. And you’re tearing my family down at the same time. But see I never tried to hurt her or go at her like that. I want to make that clear. If I was trying to hurt these women, there’s things I could do.”

Jennifer Williams wasn’t safe either. When asked about where she stands with Jennifer, Jackie said:

“Who is that? Jennifer is on the show? Oh she was one of the guest appearances on the show this season.”

Ouch. Check out the interview in full below:

  1. No, Draya was BBWLA. She left and Tami had to come back to save Jackie and the rest of the background characters.

  2. The problem with this is her other daughter Chantel said the same things Ta’Kari did. I wonder why they didn’t ask her about that in this interview. It’s like they already made their mind up that they are Team Jackie and Envy shouldn’t be out here diagnosing Ta’Kari with bipolar disease if he doesn’t even know the whole story or watch the show.

  3. Lies may have been told but I do love her shutting down Shaunie, she pretends like she the boss but really just another employee

  4. I’m not sure why they keep testing Shaunie. She’s managed to remove everyone she doesn’t like off the show eventually. Duffy, Royce, Jenn, Brandi, etc. it’s corny to keep pretending this isn’t her show and she has no say so. Jackie better be careful.

  5. @Anon 6:54
    That’s lies and fairy tales, Tom Cavanaugh is the Shiwrunmer of the show which is the lead executive producer. Shaunie has NO Power

  6. Everyone loves to hate Jackie. I for on think the truth lies somewhere in the middle, but closer to Jackies side. I saw the part of the interview where Takari called in and she confirmed some of Jackies statements while contradicting her own. The child’s medical fees should have been covered by the day care. Takari said she didn’t start the go fund me and she never confirmed what the money went towards. I do think that Jackie made the girl exercise and compared her daughter’s. I also think Takari has bad influences, is keeping her kids from Jackie, and is looking to gain money and fame.

  7. ^^^^^^

    Umm I watched the entire interview, and at no point did Ta’Kari call in and say anything. What she did do is respond on Instagram and she said she didn’t appreciate that Envy said she has bipolar disorder. It’s ok to side with Jackie but it’s not cool to completely lie just to defend her. Not cool at all.

    1. Bree is telling the truth boo!! Takari actually did call in after Jackie left. I’m going to email it to Amanda so they will post it on here!!

  8. Someone on here said BBW needs a major revamp and I am starting to agree. This season has been a mess and it’s sad to see so many black women defending Jackie’s dysfunction. I’ve even seen some write that it’s totally normal for a mother/grandmother not to see or have a healthy relationship with her kids/grandkids. What kind of garbage is that? Jackie clearly has a lot of issues. She’s way too old to be trying to fight multiple people and threatening to kill people on TV. I am not here for her and I wouldn’t mind her being fired. And now we’re supposed to believe Takari is some compulsive liar when Jackie’s favorite daughter Chantel already said the same things on the show a few years ago? What in the world? The logic with Jackie and her supporters is lacking. They just need to be honest and admit that dysfunction is all they know too and it make them comfortable. I can’t relate to Jackie or her garage mothering. So I will not defend her. I tried to watch Baller Wives and it was just as toxic. You got a pregnant black woman saying the most foul stuff ever and out here arguing when negativity is not good for a baby. Maybe it’s just time for me to walk away from ratchet TV. Too much negativity!

  9. I feel like both sides (Team Jackie and Team Eff Jackie) care too much. The purpose of this show is to entertain us. That’s it. Enjoy it but to defend any stranger over something that has nothing to do with you personally is weird to me.

  10. Jackie said Takari will become a multimillionaire if her or Doug dies thanks to their will. This child is not neglected. She’s just messy and looking for attention.
