Flix ~ Alter Ego’s of The Real Housewives of Atlanta
“Gimme the LOOT!…Gimme the LOOT!”
Super celebrity photographer Derek Blanks never ceases to amaze me! During this season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Derek took on the challenge of creating his signature Alter Ego scenarios for the cast members of Bravo’s most popular show. The photos were shot earlier this year but kept under wraps until the airing of last night’s show. Each housewife portrayed images thought up by fellow castmate NeNe Leakes. They’re all simply hilarious! Sheree’ Whitfield (above), widely recognized for her “7 figure settlement” statement during the first season of the show is photographed robbing herself at an ATM, while Lisa Wu-Hartwell (below) is shot portraying good vs. evil by stealing cookies from herself.
I love it! Motorcycle chick meets girl scout.
The crowd favorite, NeNe Leakes, poked fun at her former stripper self by portraying a stripper vs. a goodie two shoes in Magic City:
NeNe shoulda been makin it rain on herself…
If you watch the show, you saw that NeNe originally wanted Kim Zolciak to be Black in her shoot. This all stemmed from Kim’s revelation during the first season that she was a Black woman stuck in a White woman’s body. Well Kim opted to go the safe route since I’m almost positive she woulda been accused of being in Blackface:
The housewife vs. the mistress… what a stretch.
The most riveting photo of them all was fellow ATLien, Kandi Burruss’, ode to drunk driving. As someone who’s family had recently been affected by a drunk driving accident, Kandi showed a ton of emotion in the photo and her goal of bringing attention to drinking and driving was certainly reached:
Shouts out to Derek Blanks once again for such amazing work!

September 18, 2009 @ 8:04 amthe pictures were really nice! I think Ne-Ne should have been a man in her shot, watching the stripper and making it rain on that hoe!! don’t like her as the lady with the pearls, scared to be in the stripper club.
