Larsa Pippen — former wife of legendary Chicago Bulls player Scottie Pippen and the former girlfriend of Michael Jordan’s son Marcus Jordan—recently attempted to drag Emmy award-winning journalist and talk show host Tamron Hall because she didn’t like their prior interview.

During a recent interview with Jason Lee, Pippen recalled the 2023 interview, which occurred at the height of her relationship with Jordan, and accused Hall of being messy and unprofessional.

“[Tamron] talked so much s—t about me … I should have really lost my mind on her,” Pippen said of the NAACP Image award winner before adding that she held herself back.

 “But I didn’t want to go Housewives on her. It was prime time, I didn’t want to get crazy on her. I was too nice,” she continued.

“An NBC publicist, during commercial, [came and] whisper[ed] in my ear. She goes, ‘We can leave’ … because it was that bad,” Pippen claimed.

She then proceeded to attack Hall’s talk show (which is currently in its sixth season) and its ratings. “It was bad. [Tamron] needed to do it for her show because her ratings are trash. It’s another person [who] used my name for clickbait,” Pippen told Lee.

“I did it to promote Housewives,” she said of the Bravo show. “We were doing press for Housewives. And they’re like, ‘Hey, do you want to do Tamron[‘s] show? My mom was like, I love her. I love her show.”

“Then I go on her show, and she literally was like, ‘Why would you do that? Why wouldn’t you ask your ex … if [you] should date this person?’ I’m like, ‘On what planet [do] you live on? Nobody asks their ex who they should date,’” Pippen said.

At this point in the conversation, Pippen resorted to name-calling Hall. “She was just an idiot, honestly, and she used me again,” she added. 

“I didn’t know what to do. I was never, like, ambushed like that. And I said to her during the commercial break, ‘You’re being really negative’ and then when commercial was over, she said, ‘Well, Larsa said I was being very negative’ … I really thought she wanted to be a Housewife.”

Hall has yet to respond to Pippen’s comments, and she likely won’t. 

As if right on time, the new season of Real Housewives of Miami is set to premiere soon, which is what likely sparked these comments. Having moved on from Jordan, Pippen is currently dating former NBA star Jeff Coby.
