Can Iyanla Vanzant Fix Evelyn’s Life? Check Out The Sneak Peek Of Her OWN Special

September 4th, 2012 - By Brande Victorian

We already knew Evelyn would be making an appearance on Iyanla Vanzant’s new show on the OWN network, “Fix My Life,” but it looks like the life coach has circled back to catch up with the basketball wife in light of her latest domestic/divorce drama.

According to a news release:

 Earlier this summer, Vanzant visited Miami to meet newlyweds Johnson and Lozada and explore the couple’s publicly volatile relationship. Despite Johnson choosing not to participate in the session, Vanzant and Lozada connected one-on-one and tapped into the deep-rooted anger, resentment and insecurities that have plagued Lozada.

Weeks later, after the shocking allegations of a domestic violence incident came to light, Vanzant reconnected with an emotionally raw Lozada in New York for a no-holds-barred conversation that details the eye-opening events of the night that led Lozada to file for divorce.

No holds-barred is absolutely right because in this short clip, Iyanla pointedly asks Evelyn how she went from being a thug amongst women to living in hiding inside of a hotel after marrying Chad. This clearly is not like the soft Nightline interview we saw the actual football wife give ABC on Friday. Evelyn’s two-part special will air on OWN September 15 and 22 at 10p. Here’s a preview of the interview as well as a look at what Iyanla has in store for the rest of the season of her new series.

Will you check it out?

    It really amazes me the things people say about other people. Evelyn, always remember when someone chooses to try and bring you down, they aren’t saying anything about you, what they are really saying is something about themselves. Baby girl, the divine is within you, within your humanness. You, baby girl will get a grip because help is on the way. You have the inner power and also God’s grace. Much love!

    Evelyn, no matter how many negative comments are out there, ignore! You are loved by many and if they didn’t like you, why were they watching! May your best day in 2012 be your worst day in 2013.

    Wow…I’m just going to shut up about this situation…because my opinion doesn’t really matter at the end of the day…. there’s always 3 sides Her side His side and the TRUTH…. who’s telling the whole truth without embellishing a little…she has stitches and a receipt…but we see her actions on BBW…he has a clean report of not hitting women (until now)… but a history of not being faithful… then there’s the third person who told 911 she was overreacting…. hmmmm she just needs to stay home and really really do some soul searching… hopefully Iyanla can help her on that journey

    The reason why Evelyn can go from being a thug on TV to hiding in a hotel is because that’s what cowardly bullies do. Just as Tammi buckled under pressure and went into hiding after being called out, Evelyn did the same thing. They really AREN’T about that life. That’s a lit they have told themselves. Bullies and cowards are always the weakest links. But no, I will not be watching anything with this vile human human being.

    Number 1 get off the damn TV with all her problems and sort them out privately……..Who the heel wants their private affairs sorted out on TV………oh I forgot the Jerry Springers Community

    Iyanla has dark skin. She should know that dark skin bruises way too easily to be clear after 3 weeks, no matter how much makeup we wear. I have lost respect for Iyanla. Evelyn is known for being a violent homewrecker and the only reason she is playing the victim now is bc her money train (reality show) was cut short

    Ill actually be watching not the Evelyn special I’ve said all I can say about this situation. But I am a huge fan of Iyanla’s so Ill be checking it out.

  • disqus_WfmNqv9gsC

    You know, people must be very hard up these days. First Iyanla has Lozardo on, then, she does this Oscar performance interview on ABC. I don’t believe Evelyn is going to change. As long as “Basketball wives” continues to pay her the high salary, she will continue to be the foul mouth brawler she is. I don’t like her nor will I be supporting any of her business endeavors that she is involved. These companies large and small, are stupid enough to give this person and other reality stars with cuss and fight, act a fool, make sex tapes endorsement deals. They are very hard up for money in my opinion to stoop this low. I don’t care if these people are popular among viewers who watch these shows. You have people out there don’t even act foolish and ignorant like she does but companies don’t even look their way to give them endorsement deals. I will not be wasting my time to even watch the interview. She is not going to take any of the blame for some of the wrong doing that she does. She continues to say that Chad needs help, she needs help as well. She need to stop wasting Iyanla time and check herself into a mental hospital.

      UH-GREED. Oscar winner lol , im weak!

      • loooooool

        me too !!!

  • Native Noir

    Hopefully she can turn her life around behind this. Apparently she needs help but she’ll only change if she wants to. If she sees nothing wrong with her ways..well you know the rest.

    I still haven’t seen the ABC interview… I’ll watch just to see what she says… Wish she would just take some time and chill by herself & do some self-reflecting… All these interviews could’ve waited. Seriously though, I wonder how her sister is doing, being that she just lost her husband :(

    • L-Boogie

      I just wish she handled herself differently. She seems very intelligent but just too much.
