    Chrisette Michele hit the “A” last week to celebrate the release of her 2nd CD, “Epiphany.” The celebration was held at Eros Nightclub and she was joined by Yung Joc and his Swag Team. Check out a few photos below:

    Joc & Chrisette

    From the looks of his TWITTERS, I think Joc may have a lil crush on Crissy:

    “Yo I’m @ Chrisette Michelles album release party and I’m tryin to put a hickie on her neck” 1:22am May 10th

    “Chrisette Michelle up n here lookin like sunday dinner!!!” 2:00am May 10th

    “damn!!!!! we just kissed!!!!!damn her lips felt like heaven…im lyin… but she is cool as hell. yall need to go get her new cd! shit jammn” 2:12am May 10th

    main-341

    They were gettin kinda cozy up there….

    Joc’s happily married though, so I’m sure they were just talking buisness.

    Mugshot Mania ~ Saaphyri Wanda Scott

    May, 12 2009 | Written by ATLien

    saaphyrimess

    Somebody sent me this pic and said it was Saaphyri’s mugshot….now..ummmmm I know weave and make-up make a difference, but I’m not buying it! Especially since it was also on MediaFakeOut! But there is a teensy bit of resemblance there.

    This may or may not be her mugshot, but it’s TRUE that Saaphyri is currently incarcerated.? Word is, she was recently sentenced to 3 years in prison after she failed to attend a Nov 2005 sentencing hearing for a previous charge.

    The Nov 2005 sentencing was for an arrest and charge that Saaphyri stole her uncle?s identity and incurred debts of several thousand dollars. Saaphyri allegedly paid for breast implants with her stolen identity alias and she pleaded no contest to the charges but failed to show up for sentencing in Nov 2005. She was on the lam for a while but was caught in LA in Nov 2008 when she was stopped for driving with an invalid license. Saaphyri was sentenced to jail time, plus payment for restitution, fines and fees, amounting to $8500. (Source 1 and 2)

    Saaphyri still wants contact with her fans and those that wanna send fan mail can feel free to jott down the address below:

    Saaphyri Wanda Scott
    X359545 C.I.W. Barnerberg B 1137 Low 16756
    Chino Corona Rd. Corona, CA 92880

    Her Twitter page will also be updated via her cousin.

Moms were treated to a wonderful brunch by some of the city’s finest chefs with massages by Zen Massage. The event also featured quite a few celebrity moms and even a performance by Grammy Award winning Artist Chrisette Michele.

    Philip’s arena was jumping Saturday night as the Hawks met the Caveliers yet again. Keyshia Cole sang the national anthem while her bff Monica chilled on the sidelines. T.I., Nelly, Jermaine Dupri, Polow Da Don and Keyshia’s ex and my next boo JEEEEEEEZY also took part in the festivities. Unfortunately, the Cavs pounded that “A”zzz but at least A-town supported to the fullest!

        Straight From the A to the Hall of Fame! This one Straight From the A to the Hall of Fame! This one hits different. 👽🛸

OutKast’s induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2025 isn’t just a win for hip-hop — it’s a celebration of Atlanta’s heartbeat. Before there was Real Housewives, Love & Hip Hop, or any Atlanta reality show, there was the Atlanta music scene — real stories, real people, and a creative energy that could only come from the Southside.

I grew up in Southwest Atlanta, and back then, it wasn’t unusual to bump into (or run with) the same circles as OutKast and the Dungeon Family. We were all just young ATL dreamers finding our voices, our style, and our lane. Somewhere along the way, I kinda inserted myself as an unofficial member of that crew, a sister to the culture, always front and center, documenting the movement before “content creator” was even a thing.

When I started blogging in 2007, Straight From The A wasn’t about reality TV or viral gossip. It was about the music, the movement, and the people who put Atlanta on the map. My blog name, my pen name ATLien, my whole digital identity was inspired by @outkast , @goodiemob , @killermike , @ceelogreen @sleepybrown , and the whole Dungeon Family - the original ATLiens who made the world respect the South. 

And Killer Mike — I’ll never forget how you encouraged me to keep pushing nearly 20 years ago when blogging was still that “weird internet thing.”

Today, I celebrate the legends who defined Atlanta’s sound, spirit, and swagger. True innovators. True visionaries. Forever ATL. 👽🛸

After all that eviction tea, the doors are locked and lights out. Big shoutout to @millichun for sliding by to check out the scene! 

Is Kenya really Gone With the Rent? Or is Friday her off day? 👀

        The Kenya Moore Hair Spa drama just got even MESSI The Kenya Moore Hair Spa drama just got even MESSIER, chile! 
The landlord has officially clapped back in court — filing their answer to Kenya’s counterclaim, and whew, they brought receipts on receipts! 

According to the filing, Kenya hasn’t paid a dime in rent or utilities since December 2024, which technically makes her a squatter! 😬 And about that $80K tenant improvement allowance she’s been fighting for? The landlord says she’s in default and violated several terms, meaning that deal is void.

This whole thing is turning into a Bravo-level courtroom saga… minus the peach! 🍑

The full 99-page amended complaint (with all the juicy details) is available now on Patreon + Members Only! http://patreon.com/atlien or hit the link in bio for the exclusive legal tea.

So what do y’all think? Can Kenya spin this, or is the Hair Spa officially a wrap?
