Rapper Nicki Minaj must have been a generous mood recently after donating her hand-me-downs to a needy wannabe reality star.
Mario Marlo Hampton, the ex-con/background character on The Real Housewives of Atlanta was spotted rocking a dress previously worn by Minaj.
The emerald green silk taffeta gown with black battenburg lace and broderie anglaise bodice was created by Oscar de la Renta for their Spring 2012 collection and Nicki rocked during last year’s American Music Awards.

Marlo Hampton in Oscar De La Renta – March 6 2012 (Spotted @ NecoleBitchie)
They both look great but I’m sure Maurice Marlo got the best deal on her used gown!
Who do you think carried to look the best?
Oh… by the way, do y’all remember that post I did on Maury Povich Marlo Hampton circa 1990 that included a photo of Markus Marlo and her “old school” boo?

Well I said I didn’t have the TEA yet on Marlo’s 90-styled boo, but once again…. a loyal reader of StraightFromTheA.com has come to save the day!
Come to find out Marlon Marko’s sweet faced Vasace booski is actually the reason why she caught her first case! An assault charge… which lead to at least 6 more arrests for parole violations.

subject: Marlo Hampton’s D-Boy in the PhotoHello! I love your blog! I visit it several times a day….LOL. Here is some info on the guy in the picture with Marlo…
Lorenzo Dixon
53 years old (born in 1958)
Released from federal prison 05/10/85
Currently owns NO LIMITS AUTO DETAILING in St. Petersburg, FLI immediately recognized the face in the photo because I regularly have my car cleaned at his detail shop. Marlo is his constant conversation! He loves telling the story about dating her and how her friend Mia was pushing up on him behind Marlo’s back. He says he told Marlo, Marlo confronted Mia in the club and slashed her face with a razor.
He claims that Mia always tried to make peace with Marlo even though she was the one with a “scar for life”. He says Marlo always ignored her and would have nothing more to do with her. He claims Mia was distraught over not having Marlo as a friend and committed suicide.
Once again, I love your site.
Welp… there’s some more tea to sip on! So Marlo caught a case and disfigured that girls face over some old dude rocking Versace?

What do you guys think of the dude who allegedly caused Marlo to catch a case?

And people talking shit about what YOU post on YOUR blog will start in, 5, 4, 3……
None the less, she really is from Tampa area slashing a girl over that? BISH please! NEXT!
ATLIEN, why do you clown Marlo like that all the time? It’s funny.. but makes me go hmmm at the same time..lol
Anyway, She looks WAY BETTER Than Nicki in that Dress! Now if she had the common sense and personality of classiness to match.. she’d be a cool lady..
Hurts my heart to see someone so fly on the outside and so evil on the inside.
that story is crazyyyy. I guess her on the show isn’t that bad after all
WTF was the point of that letter…basically you’re telling us that the girl tried to get with her friend’s man, which makes her a trifling friend…who would want a friend like that…get off Marlo’s clit but then again she’s the only thing worth seeing on this blog…she looks gorgeous…you wish you had half the body she does…keep licking Phaedra’s booty cause that’s obviously the only thing that brings you joy
Marlo is mad dangerous if she’ll cut up someone who was supposed to be her "friend" over something that LOOKS LIKE THAT!!!
Maybe her "friend" was trying to show her how triffling her man is/was? But we’ll never know the whole story anyway since Markosto slashed her face and the girl killed herself.
LMAO at "MAURY POVICH"! I love this site!
Hmmmm I wonder if you verified this story is true since you care to make sure all the facts align before you make a post *sarcasm*
Okay your choice of words are interesting. "Hand me downs" Really come on if it was Phaedra and Nicki Minaj your title would have read Phaedra and Nicki Minaj rock the same gown. And if that’s what you call a hand me down sign me up for some. Also why insult her with calling her "Mario" From your stand point a person with a criminal past can’t reform and do better for themselves no wonder some return to a life of crime because some people throw making mistakes in the past in their faces. I believe everyone has a reason why they commit crimes and act out of anger. Instead of insulting the womwn in the blog maybe you can take the time to understand why she acts the way she does. Another example of Black women tearing each other down. #sad
I doubt very seriously if anyone was trying to "push up" on him. Who the hell would want that? Must have had what they considered to be deep pockets back in the day because his azz is NOT THE BUSINESS,
I hate unattractive men who are delusional enough to think somebody is really interested in them. BTW, not a Marlo fan but she definitely looked better than Nicki in that dress. She looked beautiful.
she looks gorgeous…you wish you had half the body she does…keep licking Phaedra’s booty cause that’s obviously the only thing that brings you joy
Say it ain’t so. So there is another person coming forward to tell on Fakedra. I wonder if Atl will do interviews from jail?? Womp Womp
Im confused about how you know she bought the dress used ? they only made one ???
Dear ATLien, You REALLY need to grown up! The Marko, Marlo jokes are no longer funny! You are starting to look childish and immature. If you don’t like Marlo then STOP talking about her on your blog, you’re making her popular. Signed, loyal but highly annoyed reader…
Atlien why dont you tell us why you’re really mad! from looking at your photos i can sort of come to terms why you’re so mad at Marlo. i also find it confusing how all this issue with Phaedra’s criminal past is going on but you refuse to mention anything about it cause you are a certified booty licker but youre so quick to try to clown Marlo. Chile please geturlife together! Hating dont look good on people like you!!!
Are you assuming this was a donated dress from Nicki?…Marlo has impeccable style and enough sugar dads to buy this for her and a income to get it herself!…Why cant you just state the obvious…Nicki wore it first but Marlo wears it BETTER!
Not a Marlo fan, but she looks good in that dress, doesn’t fit Nicki right & the pink hair makes it look worse…
Marlo rockin…
MY GAWD!! She wears that WAY better than Nicki!!!!
Who?
@ATLien; Now you know Oprah went through the fire in her early years…I’m gon’ be in your corner no matter what! Yeah you may not need me ,BUT I GOTCHU!! You did your job,and you’re STILL gittin’ mo’ hits than any of them joke sites…and THEY won’t even LET YOU POST!! Don’t know why obvious fans of this site think you feelin’ their bullshyt. Those postin’ bullshyt,hope you’re happy knowing you’ve already read the bullshyt you posted. Yall gon’ continue to post the same crap over and over again?So let’s keep it together. The only reason you’re speaking here is cause not a single other blog site will let you voice your opinions.If this were MY SITE?..I would roll up to yo’ mofo’ azzez and …well,this aint’ my site. Deuces!
I clicked through this post thinking that this gossip writer would actually, in true journalistic reporting style, trace the dress between the two women. In true blogger (more concerned with headlines, being first, and getting a rise out of readers – among other painfully biased reporting fails) fashion, this is a IGNORANT, ENVY FILLED attempt to mischaracterizing someone she doesn’t even know. ATLAlien, some advice – 1. Do your fans a favor and learn to draw the distinction between storytelling and FOOLERY. From the comments I’ve read, you have a pretty educated following – that you fail consistently. 2. Be honest about the root of your issues with Marlo – its elementary and so obvious that it draws a distraction from the local Atlanta entertainment beat (thats a news term) we appreciate you for. Oh, after that honest moment, please drop that baggage, walk away, and realize that you could be doing so much more with the time you’ve invested in this site than focusing so critically on one person. Marlo is Marlo, a woman, with a heart, feelings, and a past – please please come to terms with the fact that HUMAN BEINGS are not perfect and she, you, and I shouldn’t try to be. Please don’t become a "Rose" – it’s just not a good look.
Hop of Marlo’s Dick seems like jealousy because you can’t afford the dress Hater, Y you mad at her for, you sound so bitter stop holding a grudge on her
Marlo wore it well!!!
I agree with @Reader 100% !
She need to get off MARLO Azz and shed tea on her good friend Fakedera Parks, we all know!
^^spoke too soon^^ – So basically, black female, throw another black female under the bus because in the end you will make money from it. Forget all the stereotypes society burdens you with, how they say you’re angry, can’t get married, and are "ghetto" – just make money. Hourly wage mentality at it’s best.

Maury Povich, Mario, Marlon, Marquevious????? Lawd have mercy! Lol
Marlo actually wore the dress better
Its post such as these that saddens my heart for my race!!! Who is perfect? Who dosent have a past? …We are not better than the next person and the past is just that. Black women knock each other down instead of lifting one another up. All the reality show women have issues, yet they are still black women working and holding their own. Its none of our business who slept with who or how she got that car, dress, etc!! Sure it makes for a hot story, something to keep folks coming back but at the end of the day…I would prefer to read about the good things these women do and see what they are wearing, how fabulous they look ,without all the gossip, assumptions, name calling etc……Our race will never overcome the hate, jealously and envy that brews within unless we make a conscious decision to change that within ourselves. You have a platform for change, yet you choose to deal in mess!!……This is my opinion and that is all~
I see you Atlien even if those commenting don’t. When you post on Marlo aka Marko Mavin etc you get more hits. More hits = more money. Get that money!
Are people that steam pressed about is posted on YOUR own blog. We all have opinions and are entitled to them. IF you dont like those opinions… Oh well.
Now onto mugshot Marlo. The dress looks nice. But is she wearing it….to the damn department store? The hell?
im very hurt bout the negative things bout marlo. it’s just like ti and all the other rappers. they all have pass and they chose to make a change in their lives. so what is the big deal with marlo changing. god give her a break.we all did stupid things when we were young. she is doing so much better. i love marlo. talk about phadra and her husband he changed. so should we watch his every move. he did federal time!!!!!!!
When is the story coming out about Phaedra? You know, the one regarding insurance fraud, racketeering, etc.
If you’re going to “report” the latest gossip, what’s the hold up? Oh, I forgot, Phaedra’s your buddy. LMAO!!
Michelle, how much energy does it take to hate on someone for no reason?
What happened to you and bob whitfield relationship?
Marlo if by chance you read this blog, run for your very life cause this broad here has some SWF stuff going on. This is a blog and the blog administrator can report whatever they choose, but this obsession that Michelle has is super scary. I mean does she wanna be Marlo or be with her? WEIRD!
Ok I had enough Michelle. Whatever I know realize u r being biased about Marlo. Keep that lady off ur site it’s good for Marlo any publicity good/bad.At the same time 99 out of 100 was negative. In addition you’re uprooting memories that they don’t want remember ur prior posts and how they felt. The story didn’t even go that way. On the Phaedra stuff u didn’t even want to post. Hmm.BTW r u thinking of being the next housewife u would revive She by Sheree story line Lol I’m just asking?
WOW! @sflsun it would have been better if you had kept this info to yourself. This information here does not put the younglady who passed away in the best light. That will be all I say about that!
However, Marlo is working that dress. Nikki just have to much going on in that picture.
Grow up and find another Topic you HATER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tea received! ‘Maury ‘Povich’….Hahahaha
Marlo looks nice. The chick may have issues and be crazy but she can dress her ass off!
First, I started reading this blog a few months ago and liked it. This thing with Marlo though is gettin’ really old. I don’t know what the real issue is, but it comes off as jealousy. Yes, I know, as you stated in the Phaedra post, that this is your blog and you can say what you want to, but the posts on Marlo are starting to make you look worse than you’re trying to make her look.
For red carpet events, designers usually loan the dresses to a celebrities and sell them when they get them back. We all know she’s not pressed in the fashion area. That dress situation is not as serious as you make it seem.
Finally, I find it extremely disrespectful the way you keep talking about Marlo’s friend that committed suicide. In your hate for Marlo, you’re actually disrespecting the family. What if it were a relative of yours? Would you want the situation to keep being brought up, especially when it’s not positive? Like I said, I like this blog but these Marlo posts are doing the most at making you look some kinda way.
And to all the ppl saying the Marlo posts are about money…that would mean ATLien needs Marlo way more than Marlo will ever need her. I’m not #teammarlo or #teamphaedra. I’m just saying.
This is so sad and i honestly wld like 2 c Marlo run n2 u n atl and someone just so happen to have a video camera some black women can be so messy i really need 2 find another blog site to get on when im at work because im startin to feel like atlien is really a hateful jealous teenage girl that has a effd up life pls grown up you’re making urself look bad…..
OK OK OK THE WORLD KNOWS THAT MARLO HAS HAD SERIOUS ISSUES BUT DAYUM THIS IS GETTING OLD… YOUR PAST DOESNT DEFINE WHO YOU ARE TODAY..STOP HATING ON THE CHICK..MARLO IS GORGEOUS
P.S. when you got that email why didnt you put the disclaimer about you not knowing if its true like you did FAKEDRA how can you be so sure the girl isnt making it up? how do you know that after she alleged cut the woman she actually wanted to still be her friend i mean come on…ok here’s my question you in a club a friend cuts you in the face you are scarred for life yet YOU try to make peace with that person why would you trust to be around someone that just caused you great harm…this story is dumb except the dress part. Marlo you killing that dress..
Just goes to show that one cares about your past,as long as you have designer clothing and can act like a 12 year old on TV, you will be famous.

i wish you would use this blog to fight against racism , you know the latest story about that 17 year old black boy, killed by a mexican american, did you post that story yet? this is an outrage….let’s focuse on things that we could actually make an impact on…why dont you start a march??? you did the black out that day for media day with congress, now do something that would really help others…people cannot keep thinking its ok to kill a young black man!!!!
they both look great in it, but nickis puffiness looks better.
I love the dress on Marlo way better!!..
To the chick that runs this site…YOU’RE A HATER! Point blank! Period! I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt but chick, you really have an obsession with this young lady. They do have help for that.
Yes Marlo wore it better, but that still doesn’t mean she doesnt look like a man. i don’t care what y’all say. She what we called back in the day…….hardback. A dude. I’ll call her Mario, Mark, Marcus, etc… too. The only difference between her and Shekinah from The Family Hustle is she is Marco Polo is a label hoe. They’re both loud and ghetto and embarrassing. Angry replies coming in 1,2,3….
Nicki hands down! i don’t like Nicki or Marlo, but I like Nick’s shoe choice and the way the dress gathered more. Marlo looks boring in her dress, too long, no fluff. Marlo is dangerous.
Marlo is beautiful n she is rocking that dress.
Marlo took a lot of heat for saying the f word but no one made an issue about sheree making racists comments about her dating "that old white man" smh
LOL!!!
Marlo!!
The picture of Marlo looks older. She looks younger and smaller, what makes you think (or should I say want to believe, that Nicki wore it first?
Marlo wore the dress better. Nicki looks like she smells like catfish and fried okra
Marquavious looks better in the dress than Nicki. Why she cut her weave? Mistake.
I can’t believe women fought over that guy. He looks like a gas station attendant.
I am not even going to hate.. I think Marlo looks fantastic in this dress…She looks like she has lost a little weight,
I ain’t mad at Marlo. I know Nicki’s dress was thousands of dollars and Marlo still paid a pretty penny for it, even if it WAS a hand me down…and it’s not really much of a hand me down, considering Nicki wore it only once. I’d wear any celeb’s hand me down…u know they only wear their clothes one time…well some of them…Meagan Goode is the only "celeb" who wears the same shit over and over again, but then again she’s not a real celebrity.
Marlo must got mean head game and a mean mouth piece cuz somebody is paying her HANDSOMELY….how can you get mad at a bitch who’s game is so tight she’s getting men to straight up support her with enough money to buy Chanel and shit everyday AND pay all of her bills? Damn, she must got some dumb ass men chasing her.
D@mn, ya’ll sure got the 411 on that heffa lol ! Don’t like Marlon, … I mean Marlo lol, and don’t miss her being on the show.
