Always forever will b period
Love and respect for WNBA great A'ja Wilson.
Gosh she is just such a charmer. Love you A! Rep!
I’m so happy for her and proud of her at the same time. Yes, South Carolina proud. ❤
Whoopi Goldberg seems so proud of her 💯
I just got my copy of her book!! Excited to read it!!!!
I had never heard of her! Partly because I don’t follow basketball but this is a book I gotta check out!
Hard work pays off. She has just begun her journey. I see her in politics when her career is over in basketball. Please pay this superstar !!
A’ja is such a great human. I hope to see her play in person and meet her one day. 💕🏀
Whoopi Goldberg "nice to see you sis nice to see you" 💯💯💯💯
Before Sunny spoke to sweating, it struck me that I think most Black females hate to sweat. I sure do. It started with being told as a child that I shouldn't sweat as not to mess up my hair (women whose natural hair isn't straight know what was meant).
You are so right! Sweating and swimming
No one likes to sweat
Congratulations Aja
What up black girl 🖤
Aja, Aja. So happy for u. From University of SC(shout out)to the WNBA. Could not be more prouder of you. Time we blink, Aja Wilson back on the chart with more accolades. Much success and looking forward to seeing you when the WNBA starts back up. Keep being you and you can't go wrong.
She from South Carolina?
Yes
I love that they had a black girl with dyslexic on the show when Whoopi Goldberg had or have dyslexic as well💯.
Aja and the view on the view 🤯🤯☺️😍😍
She is so beautiful.❤❤❤Love from Germany ❤
Beautiful person. Loved her story
My girl A'ja
I read the book and it easily became one of my top 5 books. I loved it!!!!
So happy for this surprise AW tour on every talk show!
Beautiful on the inside and out ❤️
Sexyy
Have Aja on again please💙
I love her.... she's a beast on the court...a tall woman and still feminine and gorgeous...🩷💖.
She never forget wher she came from❤ love it, and she have do it well😊
U no what's funny.. anytime anyone speaks specifically to black women positively people call it being divisive. Meanwhile everyone bashes them on a regular basis and nobody says a thing about it. Somebody explain this to me!
Completely backwards. They bash people all the time and everyone kisses their asses.
Love her
There needs to be some context behind the pay gap.
NBA = 10 Billion in revenue each year, the average player salary is 9.6M, which is 0.0096% of the overall revenue, or 0.01%.
WMBA by comparison makes 60M a year, and the average female salary is 103k, which is 0.17% of the total revenue.
So yeah, they get paid less, but the business as a whole doesn’t make as much money. Technically, they’re making a higher percentage of the profits than their male counterparts. Not saying 103k is better than 9.5M, but it’s all about how much the business is bringing in. Context matters.
My girl 🫶🏾
Love her game 🏀
I miss u aja beautiful an i miss my aces 3 peat all day long
So beautiful love you Aja
Love you A’Ja
Go 22 Go Aces
Notice the difference between how the media covers A'ja vs Caitlin?
Why are you guys comparing both of them, please keep Aja out of this mess. She is above it
@@Deborah-ir7pp Because A'ja is likely the best player in the WNBA at the moment and Caitlin was the best player in NCAA. It is obvious why these will be compared. The comment was not about A'ja but about the media.... reading comprehension.
It's such shame this young lady doesn't have major endorsements. She's a winner all around. But this plane Jane on the worst team in the W, no personality gets a Nike deal. SMDH.
Excellent from Gamecock 🏆 2 a WNBA X2 CHAMP 🏆 🏆✅️💯 SHARING TRUTH WITH USE ALL GODBLESS AJ'A. WEARING MY GEAR FOR SURE 👑🌹🌹🌹
California’s amazing Governor Gavin is also dyslexic , writing a book as well, Ben’s and Emma’s Big Hit!😊
Did she just refer to herself in the third person. WOW
A'ja is amazing. Just wish Whoopi would show the same enthusiasm for comparable while guests.
lol , everybody have their own favorites. It’s ok , everybody is entitled to their own favorites
Men sports bring bigger audiences so they make more money. Women sports is underrated
May have been true in the past but more people watched the women's championship game than the men, the game between LSU and South Carolina beat the NBA in viewers . Let's not act like sexism isn't part of the reason
@@Rahimdadreamliterally nothing to do with sexism. You have to offer a product that people want to buy in order to make money. Their product mostly sucks
@@JS-mg1mk It doesn't suck you'd have to be just plain ignorant not to believe there's a little racism and sexism not saying that's the soul reason but it's definitely a part of the equation
@@Rahimdadream and yet you have no evidence of it. Plenty of women's sports have fanbases bigger than the WNBA. And wtf would racism have to do with anything? Are you aware of who dominates male sports?
@@JS-mg1mk It's obvious several white and black players have spoken on the subject with sue bird being the most recent it's funny I've never heard a NBA player say the Wnba isn't a good product it's usually casual fans who think dunking is the only thing that makes basketball exciting Carmelo Anthony said if he was teaching someone the game of basketball he would show highlights from the women he and others have said women play the game the right way
Can u tell what they would say if Clark came out with Dear White Girls Could aja title book Dear Little Girls hmmmmmmmmm we r all the same
She doesn’t have to…the media and her bigoted followers do it on a daily basis…stop judging what you don’t know…it’s deeper than just a title of the book…if you knew the backstory you’d understand it…she often speaks of her grandmother and the influence that she had over her life…she’d often tell her about her struggles and growing up black and not having access to places and things…she told her about not being to walk on the college campus in S.C. because blacks were not allowed to walk that way…she had to walk around the grounds…and she then goes on to thank God for change and how blessed she felt to have The University of South Carolina honor her with a statue on the same grounds that her grandmother wasn’t allowed to walk on…and there are other touching moments related to her dyslexia and feeling inadequate and her grandmother again was her confidant…
Growing up in the south and seeing it for myself…I know that there are major differences and to be encouraged by someone that looks like me and have had similar experiences means a lot…
TRUTH OF THE MATTER …somewhere out there in the Midwest there’s a little white girl that’s seen CC play ball and has become inspired…thinking there is someone there who looks like me and understands me…if she can do it then I can too
Go back a little farther Whoopi , she won at SC too.
Is Sunny willing to provide Reoperations for all those descendants of her families slaves?
😮 What are reoperations? Using proper spelling and grammar will help your cause. Reparations are something that Sunny has been a vocal advocate for a while. Do some research before posting.
Reparations! With all your white privileges, you still can't write!
Shut up and sit down
@@amyreynolds3619So she should be paying reparations to real black ppl, since her family owned slaves!!
💕 💚
The ladies are so out of touch not even vibration would get them
Look@God❤🙏🏻
❤
Mr Ed
So she has good days and bad days... like ever human being ever.
🏆Segment.
Very few people are going to buy that book. Nothing against A'ja - I'm just saying.
Sunny is the descendant of Spanish slave owners, who moved across the Atlantic Ocean, with their slaves, when Spain passed laws prohibiting slavery.
She should recluse herself from conversations concerning race.
And then also decedent if actual slaves which commonly were sa under enslavement
TALK ABOUT THE GENOCIDE HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN PALESTINE
Sunny does not like to sweat. Nor did her ancestors - they had people to do that for them 😂
Sunny you don't wanna sweat cause your face will slide off.
Omg is that a guy lol listen to his voice so deep
Tell them not to have so many kids out of wedlock.
Imagine a white athlete wrote a book “Dear White Girls”. Her career would be over. The double standards in America are incredible.
Those books already exist. It’s every other girl boss book. Y’all want to be oppressed so bad.
@@diamonddoll1008 Name me a single book that has a title like that about white people that is in circulation. Just one.
This show likes to bring on people who like racial divide.
@@OneTreeHill0123why are you watching the show snowflake ? It’s obviously over your head.
@@bonanimathambo8721 doesn't need to be cos it was always the norm.. stop acting like it wasn't.
Hey Sunny, I’m a white dude from Michigan. My family never owned anybody. How about yours?
A State Champion BOYS Basketball team would beat her team😂😂😂😂
It’s funny y’all always go there when you don’t have anything to say about her play on the court.
@@crunkgirl711 I don't watch that GARBAGE 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but I know they would lose
That’s total BS. Typical rethugulin response.
@MinneapolisSkip it's a FACT🤣🤣🤣 sorry, not sorry that you don't like facts...but then again I'm sure you're of the 🧔♂️ can be 👩 ilk😅😅😅so you don't like facts anyway
Bigoted “insults” are meaningless.
Heelo white women Sunny. Do you want to come by and tell blacks what to do. So you can connect with your family
Beautiful powerful outstanding woman. I wished her very much success. Go be a billionaire.
"She"

What is this WNBA? Is it new? I never heard of it.
Far right winger kingcobrarules8117, you know what the WNBA is. You're just being sarcastic like a lot of people like you!
It's like the NBA but less competitive and less entertaining.
The passive-aggressive racist has contributed nothing useful. As per usual.
@@hunterjr666Like watching a match between the MAGATs & KKKers.
@calm1047 everything is far right wing😂😂😂even jokes and sarcasm...YOU PPL ARE TRULY STUPID
