There’s nothing more iconic than when sports and pop culture collide. WNBA superstar A’ja Wilson recently took to social media to express her impatience for more of a hit TV show, “Paradise.”
A’ja Wilson Wants Another Season of ‘Paradise’
In a post that quickly gained traction, Wilson declared, “I need Paradise Season 2 NOW. 😒 cause no way!” Her passionate reaction to the Season 1 finale sparked plenty of responses from fans and TV buffs alike.
So, what is it about “Paradise” that has captivated stars like the two-time WNBA champion?
Created by Dan Fogelman, the mastermind behind “This Is Us,” the show is a political thriller that has quickly become a streaming sensation.
The series follows Secret Service agent Xavier Collins (played by Emmy winner and Oscar nominee Sterling K. Brown) as he tries to uncover the truth behind the assassination of U.S. President Cal Bradford (James Marsden).
With its intricate plot twists, high-stakes drama, and star-studded cast — including Julianne Nicholson, Sarah Shahi, and Cassidy Freeman — the show has built a dedicated fan base in just a few weeks. And now, it looks like Wilson is one of them.
Wilson Is a Star On and Off the Court
Wilson is a force to be reckoned with on the basketball court. Since being drafted No. 1 overall by the Las Vegas Aces in 2018, she’s only continued to rack up accolades:
- Two-time WNBA champion
- Six-time WNBA All-Star
- Four-time All-WNBA First Team
- Four-time WNBA blocks leader
But beyond her dominance on the court, Wilson has also cemented herself as a trendsetter. With over 1.3 million followers on Instagram and 270,000 on X, her voice carries weight, not just in sports but also in entertainment and culture.
Whether Wilson is talking about the WNBA’s upcoming CBA negotiations or a binge-worthy TV show, people listen.
What’s Next for ‘Paradise’ and Its Fans?
Wilson’s demand for Season 2 of “Paradise” only added to the buzz surrounding the series. The Season 1 finale left fans on edge, wondering if the story would continue.
