  • Spotted: Ciara Shops in Miami & Takes in a Heat Game…

    Jan, 5 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Ciara was spotted in Miami recently participating in a lil retail therapy. She was joined by her two canine companions, Tyson and Georgia.

    CiCi’s probably still a bit disappointed about the poor albums sales of her recently dropped “Basic Instinct,” but shopping can work wonders on a bad mood.

    Ciara was also spotted sitting courtside at the Heats game with a friend. More photos below: Continue Reading…

    Straight From The ?A? Pic of the Day?

    Jan, 5 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Everyone knows I throw the “A” every chance I get… but I’m obviously not the only one!? Check out this cute pic that landed in my e-mail of an “A” Town representer posing with what appears to be a wax figure of Usher Raymond.

    Subject: A-Town Picture Feature Suggestion

    Hey ATLien,

    I noticed that pic of the bank robbing Atlanta promoter 2day and thought it would be cool for you to feature other Atlantans randomly representing our city.

    I don’t want to be 1st lol but I’ve attached several that you might like to post.

    Let me know what you think.

    MaysHigh404

    Me likey! What a great idea MaysHigh404!!

    I’d absolutely love to see photos of how y’all throw up the “A”… (or “that gang sign” as my Mom calls it *sigh*). Please… no nudity. This ain’t that kinda site! And by throwing the “A” I don’t mean “A”zzz!

    But I digress…

    Email Me [[email protected]] and your smiling face could be featured on StraightFromTheA.com‘s A-Town pic of the day. Rep Yo City!!

    Boo?d Up ~ Shaquille O?Neal & Hoopz Hit the Late Show + Keri Hilson?s ?Pretty Girl Rock? Performance [VIDEO]

    Jan, 5 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Shaquille O’Neal and his boo/fiance’ Nicole “Hoopz” Alexander were spotted strutting hand in hand as Shaq arrived to the ‘Late Show’ studios.

    I personally like Shaq and Hoopz together (they looked like they had so much fun in that classic Halloween video) but I swear it looks like he’s walking his daughter to school!

    Shaq appeared as a guest on the show for what was apparently his first time in a decade.

    “It hasn’t been ten years,” David Letterman said. “Has it been ten years?”

    When asked why it’s been so long, O’Neal responded, “‘Cause you haven’t called me, Dave.” This impromptu response set O’Neal up for the rest of the interview.

    Why didn’t LeBron James stay in Cleveland a little longer? “He didn’t call me either, so I don’t know what went on.”

    Did Kobe Bryant get you run out of LA? “I don’t know. He didn’t call me.”

    Would Charles Barkley pick you up from the airport? “He never called me, so I don’t know.”

    Hilarious! Shaq’s a really funny dude.

    Shaq’s interview was followed by a performance by Keri Hilson.

    Check out video of Shaq’s hilarious “Late Show” interview PLUS Keri Hilson’s “Late Show” performance of “Pretty Girl Rock” below: Continue Reading…

    Gucci Mane Goes From Jail to Mental Facility…

    Jan, 4 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Gucci Mane’s attorney’s are fighting prosecutors efforts to jail the rapper for a year on probation violation charges by claiming that he’s not mentally competent to stand the hearing.

    According to TMZ,

    The 30-year-old rapper ? real name Radric Davis ? appeared in a Georgia courtroom yesterday after filing a ?Special Plea of Mental Incompetency? ? in which he explained he was in no state to ?intelligently participate in the probation revocation hearing.?

    According to the document, the judge ordered Gucci into custody ? and immediately committed the rapper into a mental health treatment facility pending an evaluation of his mental condition.

    We?re told Gucci is currently at the treatment facility.

    Gucci’s drug use is well documented and has frequently has landed them behind bars, so this isn’t too much of a stretch. His camp even tried to force him to go to rehab way before all this went down. I just hope he finally gets the help he needs this time…

        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?
