  • Chris Brown & Raz B Both Apologize for Twitter Beefin’ + Polow Da Don Weighs In…

    Dec, 31 2010 | Written by ATLien

    Twitter timelines were off the chain Wednesday afternoon as former B2K band member, Raz B began a war of words against R&B singers Eric Benet and Chris Brown.

    While Benet didn’t bother to respond, Brown launched a vicious attack against Raz B that quickly escalated from disrespectful to offensive and shocking as he began to reference Raz B’s molestation accusations against former manager, Chris Stokes. Brown continued to post homophobic statements and doctored photos of the singer for several hours.

    [READ: Twitter Beef: Raz B. vs. Chris Brown (The FULL Battle from A to Z)]

    I compared this situation to the infamous T.I./Shawty Lo Beef where Tip compared Lo to a dog howling at the Moon.

    In that classic clip of Tip’s response (which you can revist HERE), he smoothly let Shawty Lo know that no response was really necessary by providing an analogy?of a dog howling at the moon.

    The dog constantly barks at the moon, but the moon is so far away and shining so bright that the moon doesn?t care about that dog. Eventually that dog (Shawty Lo) will have to sit and admire the moon (T.I).

    He ends the analogy with: ?Just admire the moon dawg!?.

    But Chris ain’t that slick. He couldn’t just let it ride and now he’s issued a public apology… Continue Reading…

    Guess What Cee-Lo Green is Giving Up for the New Year?

    Dec, 31 2010 | Written by ATLien

    Cee Lo Green dons a festive pair of 2011 glasses as he visits the Duracell mobile start power lab in NYC?s Times Square on Thursday (December 30).

    The 36-year-old Goodie Mobber hopped on a stationary bike to add human-generated power to light up a 2011 sign.

    Like most of us, Ceelo is making a few changes on January 1st, 2011.? Earlier this year, Lo gave up the “green” and swore off smoking pot after a series of anxiety attacks.

    But the weed was just a starting point. Check out what else he’s giving up under the cut… Continue Reading…

    Jennifer Hudson: “Being skinny, it’s a job. It’s not easy!” [VIDEO]

    Dec, 31 2010 | Written by ATLien

    Jennifer Hudson has dropped six dress sizes and it’s a new day for the new mom!

    The 29-year-old Dreamgirls star showed off her amazing shape in a figure-hugging grey dress for the latest Weight Watchers campaign and in a new interview, the mother-of-one says:

    ‘I look younger now than in high school! Hearing how great I look never gets old.’

    Project Runway’s Tim Gunn was a fashion consultant on the stylish shoot, which shows her throwing her hands up in the air in triumph. Out-takes from the ad show her in a series of stylish outfits which put her body on display in all its glory.

    In the accompanying television campaign, the former America Idol star performs the classic jazz track, “Feeling Good”, and uses the lyric ‘It’s a new day’ as its catch line.

    Did Usher Steal ?OMG? From Homer Simpson? [VIDEO]

    Dec, 31 2010 | Written by ATLien

    Usher is being accused of stealing from cartoon star Homer Simpson.

    The morning deejays at Y101.7-FM in Jackson, Mississippi claim that they’ve discovered the true origin of Usher’s hit song “OMG” and it comes from a very unexpected place.

    According to the deejays, the song closely resembles a Christmas carol that Homer Simpson came up with in an episode of The Simpsons.

    In a 2003 episode of the show, Homer sings “Christmas in December, wow, wow, wow. Give me tons of presents, now, now, now!” Meanwhile Usher’s “OMG” goes like this: “Honey got a booty like pow, pow, pow. Honey got some boobies like wow, oh, wow.”

    Is it simply a cute coincidence or were Usher and his team (Will.i.am wrote and produced it) inspired by Homer’s songwriting skills?

    Listen to the songs side-by-side in the video mash up below and compare the similarities for yourself… Continue Reading…

    Second Teen Arrested & Charged In Tyler Perry Home Break-in…

    Dec, 31 2010 | Written by ATLien

    A? second teen has been arrested for breaking into the home of actor-producer Tyler Perry.

    Seventeen-year-old Kamisha Boozer, a teen mother and a senior at Atlanta’s Grady High School, appeared in court Thursday morning (December 30) on charges of prowling and criminal trespass at the home of the media mogul.

    A public defender assigned to the case, told the judge that Boozer said she wasn?t actually there during the incident and that another defendant gave her name to authorities.

    Atlanta police arrested another teen, 18-year-old Chloe Ware, last week on the same charges. She was has since been released on bond and is awaiting trial.

    Perry took to his online message board to vent about the attempted break-in at his Buckhead mansion, which happened just days before Christmas and vowed to prosecute the teens to the fullest extent of the law.

    [READ: Teen Breaks Into Home of Tyler Perry/Perry Responds via Message Board]

    The judge granted Boozer a $1,000 bond for each count and ordered her to say away from Perry?s house.

    Police said there were three women caught on surveillance video at the actor-producer?s home on Paces Ferry Road in northwest Atlanta. Authorities say they are still seeking the third teen.

    What Chilli Wants is a Religious Man and More Babies… [SNEAK PEEK VIDEO]

    Dec, 30 2010 | Written by ATLien

    TLC’s Rozonda “Chili” Thomas is still on the hunt for her perfect mate. After an unsuccessful attempt to find her dream man on the first season of her hit VH1 reality show, ‘What Chilli Wants.’, Chilli returns to the small screen for a second season of searching.

    Included on her list of potentials this season is the hot male model she had on her arm at the 2010 BET hip hop awards, as well as boxer Floyd Mayweather but this time around, Chilli plans to ditch the blind dates, noting that her 13-year-old son Tron is on her mind as she searches for Mr. Right.

    “I can’t imagine bringing someone around my son who is not an extraordinary man. He already has an active father [ex-husband Dallas Austin], so whoever is going to be my husband has to be a good figure for my son and add to our family.”

    Chilli also admits she’s hoping to find a man soon because she wants more children and she ain’t getting any younger!

    “I’m straight up and told all the guys this season I wanted kids. It probably made some of them nervous, but it shouldn’t. I just need to know if we’re on the same page or not because I want more kids.”

    Check out a sneak peek trailer from the new season of “What Chilli Wants” + a recent Q&A with Chilli: Continue Reading…

        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. 👽🛸

        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?
