A reality TV mom with incendiary racial views now wants police protection the night she debuts on an upcoming Ryan Seacrest-produced series.
The woman, Khalood Bojanowski, 50, of Washington Township, Mich., has notified local police that she is concerned about reprisals after residents of her small Michigan community see the show.
And she has a good reason to be fearful: Earlier this month, her house was broken into and her beloved German shepherd suddenly died. She believes the dog was poisoned.
The new reality show, titled “Momma’s Boys” – which debuts on NBC Dec. 16 – has already been rescheduled twice, with sources speculating that NBC moved it out of its originally scheduled airdate of Oct. 29 because the network didn’t want the racially charged show to air so close to the then-upcoming presidential election, in which race was a hot-button issue. An NBC source insists that’s not true, however.
In the premiere episode, Bojanowski is seen listing the qualifications she’s seeking in a mate for her son, Jojo, 21.
The Bojanowskis are one of three mother-son pairs on the show, which has over-protective moms helping their sons choose mates from among 32 young women of various backgrounds.
“I cannot have a black one; I can’t have an Asian one; I can’t have a fat-butt girl,” declares Khalood Bojanowski, who describes her own ethnicity as Iraqi Catholic.
She’s even more adamant about Jews. “Nooo! No Jewish girl! No way, no way!” she says. “I cannot stand them! I’m sorry, but I can’t handle them. It has to be a white girl.”
She’s even seen in a future episode threatening to “kill” her son when she observes him from a helicopter making out in a hot tub with one of the black women. “I’m going to kill him, that’s what I’m going to do!” she screams. “I’m going to strangle his balls! I swear, I’m ready to kill somebody!”
She later confronts the black woman, telling her, “Don’t ever put your freakin’ lips on my kid!”
The Macomb County Sheriff’s Office does not believe the death of Bojanowski’s dog and the burglary have anything to do with the TV show.
However, a high-ranking member of the department confirms that Bojanowski is fearful about how locals will react to her statements on “Momma’s Boy.”
“She told our people . . . that she was going to be on a reality show and that she may have made some statements or something,” said Capt. Tony Wickersham.
“Then I actually got a call from the producer of the show who was concerned,” Wickersham told The Post yesterday.
