Grammy-award winning Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta came through in ‘all Black everything’ looking mah-velous as usual.
As you know, Kandi has several ventures in the works. She recently launched her own line of sex toys called “Bedroom Kandi” and she’s also been given the green light for production of her new talent search themed reality show on Bravo. There’s always big thangs poppin when you’ve got talent on your side.
On another note, Marlo Hampton was on of the first to hit the steps of Derek’s new shop and the first to post up in front of the cameras.
[Sidebar: I heard Kandi made sure to arrive AFTER Marlo had left the scene so she wouldn't have to deal with any photo ops.)
I dropped the bomb last night Bravo's decision NOT to had Marlo to the cast of The Real Housewives of Atlanta and she's trying to milk every last second of her "housewives" status before y'all realize what I'm saying is true.
Apparently Marlo didn't make the cut after Bravo execs determined it was too much of a legal risk to have her arguing and fighting on air after her violent past was revealed (Hampton slashed a some girls face open with a razor in a fight over a man and the girl almost bled to death).
