Real Housewives of Atlanta Celebrate Lawrence Washington’s Singing Debut – “Closet Freak” [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

Jul, 30 2010 | Written by ATLien

I met Lawrence Washington last year at a club and immediately gave him the title of Diva of the Day [READ: Diva of the Day: Lawrence Washington].

Who knew that he would soon become one of the breakout “male” stars of Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta?

Washington (aka Sheree’ Whitfield’s Hairstylist) debuted his new song “Closet Freak” last night to a supportive audience of friends, family.

The Atlanta Housewives all came out to support… well all except the rumored-to-be-booted housewife Lisa Wu Hartwell, who, ironically, has a clothing line with the same name as Washington’s single. [Sidebar: I spoke to Lisa and Ed last night at a different event, and that post is coming soon.]

Pic of the Day ~ Trappin Ain’t Dead….

Jul, 30 2010 | Written by ATLien

Not yet anyway. I’d give him a good 10 to 15.

I swear there’s f*ckery all around us, and I barely even notice it but I appreciate my friend Freshalina for opening my eyes. I don’t know the whole story behind this pic… all I know is that it was taken on the streets of my city.

There are none so blind as those who will not see! Fresh is the master of spotting hoe sh*t and debauchery. Me? I just need to pay more attention to my surroundings.

[Sidebar: I'm sure Jeezy's honored by the free street promo!]

Jul, 30 2010 | Written by ATLien

Clifford “T.I.” Harris graces the Jet Magazine for the week of August 9/16 2010.

In his exclusive interview with JET, Tip once again revisits his time in prison, discussing the books that sparked his elaborate vocabulary and why he reads the dictionary now on the regular. There was no mention of his wedding plans to longtime fiance, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, but of course he already addressed that the other day.

Who Knew Laurence Fishburne’s 18 Year Old Daughter Was a P*rnStar?

Jul, 30 2010 | Written by ATLien

Chris Rock once joked that it’s every father’s job to keep their daughter off the pole, and although stripping is not a career any father would choose for their daughter, I’m sure p*rno could be viewed as the worse case scenario!

Actor Laurence Fishburne is now facing any father’s worst fears as his 18 year old daughter Montana is now getting paid to get freaky on film.

According to CarltonJordan:

Brian Pumper and 18-year old Montana Fishburne are a couple! The two were spotted by CarltonJordan.com team at a Subway in the Mid-Wilshire area of Los Angeles!

Although Mr. Pumper [why do I giggle everytime I type his name!] was ready to talk to our cameras, little Miss Montana Fishburne was not having it and ran into the Starbucks next door to get away!

Hmmm….daddy must not know about this union and we have a feeling he is not gonna be happy!

Carlton eventually got the two on tape with Brian introducing Montana as the newest chick in the game. Check out the video below *Warning* graphic language! Continue Reading…

Lisa Wu Hartwell Booted From The Real Housewives of Atlanta + Is Cynthia Bailey’s New Hubby Broke?

Jul, 29 2010 | Written by ATLien

As if you didn’t already know, Real Housewives of Atlanta castmember Lisa Wu Hartwell (one of the only REAL housewives on the show) will be leaving this season.

Atlanta housewife newbie Cynthia Bailey’s drama filled wedding took place this past weekend and Lisa Wu Hartwell was a no-show. Her absence sparked rumors that she was no longer part of the show. Reports now say that she and Bravo have parted ways over “creative differences”.

I’ve called Lisa’s storyline “boring” on many occasions and apparently that’s Bravo’s assessment as well. A source close to Atlanta Housewives production says,

“They basically wanted to script elements of Lisa’s life and make her amp up the drama. She wasn’t with that at all. Lisa felt like if her real life alone wasn’t enough for the network, then maybe it was time for her to go.”

I’ve heard tales of Bravo producers begging Lisa to create drama within her household so that viewers would stay interested but she refused. [Good for her!]

With a successful real estate business, as well as a book launching soon, Lisa’s got a lot going on besides the show anyway. Ed Hartwell also recently launched a new fitness calendar.

Lisa and Ed are such a cute couple and while it may be “boring” to watch them besides the likes of drama-filled NeNe Leakes, it’s refreshing that they keep their love alive without all that “extra”.

Now for the juicy stuff! Continue Reading…
