Once upon a time Antonia “Toya” Carter was formerly known only as Lil Wayne‘s baby mama/ex-wife.

Fast forward a few years and a few reality shows later and you’ll find that Toya is no longer the single mother of a popular rappers child.

She’s now Toya Wright, a happily married mom and step-mom, successful clothing boutique owner, a NY Times best-selling author, hair gel spokesperson and so much more.

Toya was once the star of her own reality show, but now it seems she may be vying for a different spot… on a different show!

Yes… it’s TEA TIME! Grab your cups and get your fill below…

I was the first to announce that Marko Marlo Hampton would be joining the cast after being pegged as Lisa Wu-Hartwell (aka Sharon Millette)’s replacement and unfortunately she didn’t make the final cut.

Marlo’s loss could soon be Toya’s gain because with everything Mrs. Wright has accomplished these past few years, she could very well be a shoe in to fill that vacant spot as the NEXT official housewife on The Real Housewives of Atlanta! (and she’s actually a WIFE! imagine that!?)

RHOA has been in town for quite a few weeks now casting for the upcoming 5th season of the show.

Quite a few people have put their name in the hat and several home and office interviews have been conducted for the newest addition to the show.

Interviewees included the likes of Nicci Gilbert (Brownstone), Tanya Rodriguez (wife of Atlanta radio personality Frank Ski),

RHOA casting even reached out to moi for a bit of input (I guess I’m considered somewhat an expert now 😕 ) but names I threw out that I’d wanna see like: Monyetta Show (Ne-Yo‘s baby mama), Marjorie Harvey (Steve Harvey’s wife), Tameka Foster Glover Raymond (Usher’s ex), and Sherlita Patton (Big Boi’s wife) were clearly more on my radar than theirs. But such is life…

Several of my inside sources have confirmed that Toya, a friend of current “housewives” Phaedra Parks (who worked with Toya on The Tiny & Toya Show) and Kandi Burruss (with whom Toya recently partnered with in a fitness campaign), is a front runner on the list.

I’m putting my money on Toya for the win. When all of this comes to fruition, please remember to stop by and make a huge donation to my collection plate.

Thank you and good day!

NOTE: Again… if added, Toya will be replacing Lisa Wu-Hartwell, who was booted season 3. No word yet on IF any Season 4 replacements *cough* Sheree Whitfield will be made.

[Sidebar: I’ve reached out to Toya’s camp and no one’s talking… ]

How do you feel about Toya joining the tomfoolery on The Real Housewives of Atlanta?
