Shaunie O'Neal desperately wanted Vanessa Bryant for her reality show Basketball Wives LA but Vanessa turned her down flat.
Vanessa Bryant, the former wife of the Kobe Bryant has once again turned down a huge sum of money to appear on Basketball Wives, the reality TV series that follows the lives of women married to basketball players. A source has told The Insider that taking part in reality shows "just isn't Vanessa's style", but said that no disrespect was meant to those that do appear.Jacked from Contact Music
When Vanessa and Kobe split, there was no prenuptial agreement in place to prevent her from being apportioned a significant share of the basketball player's fortune. According to Fox News Latino, it has been reported that Vanessa has come out of the divorce with three of the couple's mansions, worth a combined $18.8 million. The couple's split was said to be caused by Kobe's numerous infidelities. The makers of Basketball Wives had offered Vanessa Bryant a spot on the show previously but she declined, despite TMZ suggesting that the show was set to be based around her story. The producers are still holding out hope that their latest, lucrative offer will be enough to sway her and tempt her into joining the other basketball wives on screen.
Vanessa and Kobe have joint custody of their two daughters, who are aged nine and five. The fourth season of Basketball Wives is scheduled to air from February 20, 2012.

I respect her for that: A) she doesn't need the money B) don't know anything about her personality so based on her decision I'm assuming she is not a fame/attention whore C) she seems discreet as she kept her mouth shut during that publicly humiliating "stand by your man" Kope rape allegation, she's a better woman than I am and, D) if she doesn’t have 100% control over the editing who know how she may portrayed as a character, e.g. bitch (Evelyn L.) weak, needy fool (Emily B and Jennifer W), crazy (Jackie C, Chrissy) and think of how her children could be teased and denigrated for it. PS – could you imagine Shawnie/VH1 setting her up for a confrontation with one of many Kobe’s jumps offs?! Vanessa has to have a healthy dose of self esteem despite all of the humiliation she has probably experienced during her marriage to Kobe.
if she joins this showthe ratings will surge thru the roof!
GOOD FOR HER! I knew she wouldn't, she don't need their money, and it'll only make Shaunie richer and exploit NESSA!
Good job Vanessa! Shaunie O'Neal needs Vanessa! Vanessa don't need Shaunie!
Nessa doesn't any time for Shaunie and them. She's at one of her homes counting her money from her divorce settlement.
She's already paid, what would Vanessa NEED to do Basketball Wives for?
That's right girl...get your millions in silence!
I give her MAJOR props for not becoming an attention whore! Tell Shaunie to have TWO seats! She doesn't even control the creative portion of her show!
