Atlanta celebrities and tastemakers attended the red carpet affair, hosted by V-103′s Big Tigger and the night featured a live performance by Stevie J. and Benzino’s new twelve piece band, the Magnificent 757.

In addition to the LHHATL cast, other guests included Kandi Burruss (RHOA), Derek J (Fashion Queens), Tawanda Braxton (Braxton Family Values) and more.

It didn’t take long for word to spread about a fight that broke out late last night at the new venue while cameras were rolling but now a video of the melee has also been released.

Cynthia Bailey Hosts 1st Annual Bailey Bowl + Marlo Hampton is On The Wrong Team… [PHOTOS]

Oct, 14 2013 | Written by ATLien

Cynthia Bailey of The Real Housewives of Atlanta played host to her 1st annual Bailey Bowl this past weekend.

Bailey got her gal pals together for a day of fitness fun as each RHOA member compiled their own teams to compete in the family fun event.

While Nene Leakes‘ ‘Team Rich’ consisted of many of her ‘bride-maids’ from her RHOA spin-off, one in particular was noticeably playing for the ‘wrong team’!

I revealed exclusively last week that Nene and her ex-BFF Marlo Hampton were seriously beefing about season 6 of the popular reality show due to Hampton’s apparent lack of loyalty (click HERE if you missed that).

Well, Marlo showed up during Bailey’s event twirling around with Kenya Moore. The air was thick between the two former friends and apparently Hampton got loud and was feeling ‘some kinda way’ when Nene shaded her while the cameras were rolling.

More photos from the ‘Bailey Bowl’ PLUS details about Nene & Marlo’s ‘altercation below… Continue Reading…
