Shawty Lo starring in ‘All My Babies Mamas’
If you thought the trend of ridiculous reality shows was ending in 2012, you apparently thought wrong. Carlos Walker, better known as rapper Shawty Lo is set to star in a reality show featuring himself and his army of babies’ mothers. The ladies, 10 in total, will show off their 11 children with the rapper in Oxygen’s new series “All My Babies Mamas.”
According to an official press release from the network, all 10 ladies and the 36-year-old rapper’s 19-year-old girlfriend will willingly give viewers a look into their dysfunctional lives. Highlighted will be Lo’s former fiancé E’creia who is called the ‘first lady’ as well as Lo’s so-called ‘fighter baby mama’, his ‘jealous baby mama’ and his ‘wanna-be bougie’ baby mama.’ The seven other mothers of Lo’s children will all also be featured and have equally ridiculous titles.
After the news broke on Twitter and a number of Oxygen subscribers complained, Shawty Lo confirmed that his reality program was indeed on the way with a simple tweet.

And while a number of people are up in arms over the seemingly ludicrous concept, Oxygen execs are confident that the program will be a hit especially on social media. “Oxygen will give fans an intimate look at unconventional families with larger than life personalities and real emotional stakes,” says Oxygen Media’s Senior Vice President of Development Cori Abraham.”’All My Babies’ Mamas’ will be filled with outrageous and authentic over-the-top moments that our young, diverse female audience can tweet and gossip about.”
‘All My Babies Mamas will come barreling onto tv screens this spring.
