So Big Bully Tami Wants To Teach Women How To Keep A Man With Advice From Mistresses

Normally news like this would make me say stick to your day job but knowing how Tami pays the bills and after her ratchetness on “Basketball Wives” last night, I think I’d just like her to completely disappear.

In her ongoing quest to expand her “empire,” Tami Roman is branching out from being more than a reality TV star, T-shirt creator, and Sister 2 Sister columnist to a full fledged author. Yes, brace. In an interview with Rolling Out she explained the concept for a new book she plans to release soon:

“The book is called Mistress One on One and it basically shares tidbits for women on how to keep your man. We have a lot of infidelity going on and I sat down with some women who have been classified as the other woman so I got a chance to pick their brain and use their secret advice to help other women. It’s not necessarily a self-help book but more so how to be wise and not stupid.”

I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have teach me how to keep my man at home than women who give men a place to lay their heads and their pipe when they stray. Seriously, how does this even sound like a good idea?

When asked about returning for a potential season 5 of “Basketball Wives” (if boycotters don’t shut that down first), Tami said she’ll only return if she has something of substance to bring to the show. I think I speak for everyone when I ask why she waited this long to feel that way. Anyway, she will still be on TV though, but this time in a scripted show rather than a reality series.

“I just signed on to be one of the new cast members for a new TV show called ‘Belle’ with TV One which should be out this summer. It stars Ella Joyce from the hit TV series “Roc” and the beautiful Elise Neal from the D.L. Hughley show ['The Hughleys"] and the legendary Keith David.  My book is coming and I’m also the new face of Bronner Brothers Products.”

One thing I will say is when Tami isn’t being an ignorant, belligerent mess she is hilarious. Maybe she’ll find her non-ratchet lane in scripted television. Or maybe not.

What do you think about Tami’s new book and TV deals?

    Was Mistress Wife is Better

    We don’t need a tell all book. In younger years I was a mistress for about 2 years. During that that experience,
    I learned that being the wife is much better. So I ditched the “ZERO” and got a “HERO”, we have been married 28 years (a few trials but not that many). Just be real “FOR REAL”. The bbw’s can not teach you a thing, they need help!!! It used to be fun when I thought the ladies were genuine entrepeneurs, but then then came the psycho, hoodrat, whoring bullies. SMH.

  • EbonyNicole

    Tami is a JOKE I need a good laugh today!

  • Surgentshannon

    I had a lot of respect for Tammy until last night. I lost all respect for her as a woman,she really show her butt and looked like a straight fool and nobody said anything to her. They all are followers cause a leader would have told her she was dead wrong. P.S how can we stop are kids from bullying other kids when they see adults doing the same thing!

    Here we go.  It’s called GET OFF YOUR LAZY A** AND FIND A JOB LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE.  FIND A SKILL!  LEARN TO HELP PEOPLE IN A POSITIVE MANNER AS OPPOSED TO LISTENING TO A MISTRESS TELL YOU HOW TO KEEP YOUR MAN!  IF HE GOT CAUGHT CHEATING THEN SHE CAN KEEP HIS A**!  PLAIN AND SIMPLE!
    It just seems that everyone wants to write a tell-all, know-how, self-help, etc and it’s the wrong ones doing it!  First its the stupid show, then the hair line, now this???  Oh well I guess if Karin Steffens can write a book and it becomes a bestseller…geez! I don’t think she went far to get her information! Just sayin’

  • TashaJ

    I’m soooooo confused; why would I want to take “pointers”
    from a mistress who shouldn’t be cheating with a married man in the first
    place? What advice can a woman who doesn’t even have her own man give me? Why
    not write a book addressing the men, their mistresses, and downright trifling ways…..I
    so wish that she and every other train wreck on T.V. would go away; please stop
    glorifying these hoes and their ratchet ways!!!! Tupac is somewhere rolling in
    his grave….. :-) (Inside thing, I know he was cremated)

    don’t nobody give a crap about what Tami has to say.  She is barely working on BBW,  plus if she know how to keep a man, why is she on BBW. did her man leave her? so in other words, you should only speak when you have knowledge. She on the other hand has no knowledge of keeping her mouth shut much less how to keep a man.  Get real, they just out here throwing anything out to the public to see if it will stick. and i do believe that ideal won’t fly.

    I think Tami has matured a lot and has been able to see things more clearly since she first started on BBW’s. I would read her book. You may not like the messenger but respect the message.

    • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_LKQE4UQRBBVNOIRAL4EB2SPCWI Jen

      I’m not trying to sound mean, but when was the last time you watched the show?  Like when she first started?  Really?  I am guilty of watching up to when Jen got slapped but I have yet to see the maturity of which you speak!

  • Ms_Sunshine9898

    tami you don’t even know how act on a television show about bitter ex wives and girl friends of pro athletes. your own husband cheated on you with a woman you call your friend and you are currently NOT in a successful relationship. Girl. . . .

  • noname

    I CANNOT believe what I witnessed on the preview of the BBW last night…A grown woman, taking Keisha’s bag and cell phone…Tami is a big childish bully…I’m ashamed to share the same astrological sign (aries) with her…Are the checks that good? This is like, Jerry Springer…Absurd…

  • Lemoneyeslime

    All these chicks want to do is fight in restaurants, racetracks, and wherever they feel the urge. The behavior is appauling. Doesnt she have teenage daughters, like Evelyn has a college age kid.  If any of these low life idiots were my mom, I would be so embarrassed, and would do my best to get these animals some professional help.  Thanks SHAUNIE FOR UPLIFTING THESE ANIMALS OUT OF THE GUTTER AND ONTO TV.      THANKS

  • Me

    I REALLY do not like her. She’s an idiot, and she was an idiot 20 years ago when I as a teenager watching The Real World. As far as the book … I mean … If all of these dumb chicks will take advice from an ignorant negro like Steve Harvey, why not read a book giving advice from a mistress’ point of view? To me it’s no better or worse. *shrugs* … 

  • Yeah….OK

    Lawd…. These hos trying to grab every dollar they can before this ship sinks!!!! Tami please!!!! What’s your secret to keeping mistresses away from your man?!!! Befriending them??? O ok, girl bye!!! U can’t tell a woman nothing about a mistress nothing when u have become best friends with YOUR MANS MISTRESS!!!

    I know I may come across as the oddball, but I don’t take any of the antics of reality stars too seriously. To some extent, these shows are scripted. In the “interviews” the participants are fed information from other cast members. Also, they are encouraged to act a donkey for ratings. I see no one is bashing Teresa from RHONJ, Vickie from RHOOC, or any of the cast from Beverly Hills or Mob Wives…BTW I’m a fan of all of those shows, yet I see it for what it is…entertainment. What about the other scripted shows that show black women as golddiggers(The Game), freaks(Single Ladies), needy and confused(Girlfriends/Living Single)? At the end of the day its all entertainment. Really, how many “good christians” watch True Blood, Vampire Diaries and the above named shows?

    In terms of the advice book…did y’all not read that she got info from “Side Chicks”? Hell, they knew what it took to get an attached man, so it would stand to reason that they could tell the wife/gf how to keep him at home.

    At the end of the day, a hustle is a hustle and you can’t knock it. You may not condone the method, but as long as it does not mess with your pockets, let Tami and all the others…Nene, Bethenny, Teresa and the rest parlay their 15mins into a payday.

    Please & Thank You
