She cleared up her claims that she didn’t know Jackie Christie despite Christie saying that she sees her as a younger sister as the girls share the same publicist.
“My words were never ‘I do not know Jackie.’ They asked me did I know anyone in LA, and generally, I didn’t,” she told Bossip Tuesday. “When you travel different places, of course you know OF people. You know people like how I know my hair and makeup artists…But I’m not about to go down the list of people that I know [in town] to some women that I barely know.”

She went on to dish on her now infamous feud with Draya Michele and shut down statements that she came for Draya from the beginning. She pointed out that she actually congratulated Draya after her fashion show but Draya was the one who had an issue with her.
“I was very nice to her in the beginning, and it seems like she’s the one that had a chip on her shoulder from the time I got there.”
She added that she’s not sure what Draya’s issue is with her, but thinks it has to do with her being threatened by Mehgan, who took Draya’s title as the youngest girl on the cast.
In the latest drama between the ladies, Draya came for James’ body figure, something that James mentioned Draya has done many times in the past.
“Every season Draya has something to say about another cast member’s weight. I remember last season it was Jackie’s daughter…Then the season before that its as Brittish was overweight. Now I guess come season 4, I’m overweight…”
She also revealed that Draya isn’t the only one she’s beefing with this season.
“There is one other girl that I have a run in with at the end. But she's not really a factor on the season, so I’m not even going to mention who she is or what she did.”
Basketball Wives LA airs Sundays at 9/8c on VH1.
