Career
Jackie Christie began her career as a cast member of VH1’s hit reality show “Basketball Wives LA,” which depicts the lives of women who are currently or have previously been romantically involved with famous basketball players. She was one of the show’s two main characters, the other being Draya Michele.
Jackie first appeared as a guest on the show in its second season, but she became a regular in season six. For as long as she was on the show, she was always involved in controversies and was described as dominant and harsh by many of her co-stars, who even requested her removal from the series on several occasions.
Not only that, but she was also accused by many of being a pathological liar, but Jackie remained the most visible of all the ladies on the show. She also wrote six self-help/motivational books, including ‘Sexual Relations,’ ‘No Ordinary Love,’ ‘Woman,’ ‘Proud to be a Colored Girl,’ ‘Luv Pons,’ and ‘In the Land of Sex & Money.’
She is the CEO of Jean Fya Records, an independent record label, and owns BSM media, a lifestyle and entertainment company. She also launched her clothing line ‘Colored Girl’ in 2009, which is unique in that it is eco-friendly and organic.
This demonstrates that she has been very busy outside of the show and has established herself quite well in the entertainment industry. Her publishing company, ‘Infinite Love Publishing,’ which she co-owns with her husband, has an NPO registered under it called ‘Infinite Love Foundation’ since the early 2000s and has since been helping society in its various needs on a monthly basis.
