  • Baby Bump or Beer Belly? TLC Hits American Idol Finale Stage… [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

    May, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas hit the stage during Fox’s “American Idol 2011” finale results show held at Nokia Theatre LA Live in Los Angeles last night. (May 25, 2011).

    Watkins (41), who has a 10-year-old daughter, Chase Anela Rolison by rapper Mack 10, was looking rather thick in the waist…

    Which begged the question:? Could T-Boz be knocked up? (I guess any thing is possible.)

    T-Boz has been riddled with health problems over the years due to Sickle Cell Anemia. She also battled a brain tumor back in 2009 and spoke about both a few years ago on The Early Show.

    If T-Boz is with child I wish her an her adorable 10 year old daughter Chase the best. At least Chilli will have a baby to play with on the weekends.

    Has Ciara Been Dumped by Her Baller Boo Amar’e? [PHOTOS]

    May, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Ciara and her NY Knicks baller boo Amar’e Stoudemire each attended events this past weekend in New York City…. SOLO!

    Ciara put on a brave front as she hit up the Cinema Society & Bing screening of “The Hangover Part II” at Landmark Sunshine Cinema on Sunday, May 23, 2011. CiCi posed for the paparazzi but didn’t seem to happy to be there alone.

    On the flip side, Amar’e attended the Whitney Art Party at Highline Stages the following day all smiles.

    CiCi was on the list to attend the Art Party with Amar’e, but when he showed up alone, tongues started wagging that their “coupledom” is officially a bust.

    A few weeks ago rumors swirled that Ciara had caught Amar’e sexting and sending d*ck flicks to another chick and my hopes for CiCi’s basketball wife status began to fade.

    But things seemed be going smoothly for the pair, especially after they were spotted frolicking in Miami last week.

    To add insult to injury, Amar’e was even spotted gettin up close and personal at the Art Party with another young lady… *sigh*

    Ciara just can’t win! 😕

    Looks Like Lil Wayne Has a New Boo… [PHOTOS]

    May, 26 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Lil Wayne was spotted getting cozy with a woman described as “mystery lady” recently in Miami.

    The fertile rapper hit the beach with his latino lady love by his side. They strolled along South Beach taking in the sunshine and enjoying each other’s company… with bodyguards in tow.

    Love is in the air…

    The new lovebirds also kicked it courtside at the Miami Heat vs. Chicago Bulls playoff game with Drake tagging along as a third wheel…

    Side by Side Video: Did Beyonce Copy Billboard Performance from Italian Singer?

    May, 25 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Beyonce has been accused (yet again) of her “original” stealing ideas.

    This time her performance of “Run the World (Girls)” during the 2011 Billboard Awards show is at issue… with many top blogs comparing the two and accusing Miss. B of stealing her performance from a February 2010 performance by Italian pop star Lorella Cuccarini.

    A side by side comparison of the two is indisputable.

    Lorella’s influence can be seen when watching the shows side-by-side. It feels as though Beyonc?’s team used Lorella’s show as a template and personalized it by changing out some of the details. Not only does Beyonc? use some of the same scenes Lorella used, but they fall in the same sequence.

    Bey’s Billboard performance is full of obvious similarities…

    So if your question is ‘was Beyonce’s Billboard Awards performance a copy?’… the answer is “yes”… but we already knew that.

    Plus Beyonce has fessed up.

    Video of the two performances side by side + Bey’s explanation below: Continue Reading…

    Boo’d Up: Monica & Shannon Brown + Shannon’s New Ink… [PHOTOS]

    May, 25 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Monica and her baller boo, Shannon Brown, recently celebrated their 6 month anniversary with a new photo shoot from celebrity photographer Derek Blanks!

    Blanks also captured a shot of Mo and her to adorable sons Romelo (3) and Lil Rocko (who just turned 6 last week).

    After dating only 5 months, Mo and Shannon jumped the broom last November in a private ceremony held in Shannon’s LA home.

    Mo has never seemed happier and I wish them both the best!

    In related news… Is it a sin to lustfully view photos of someone’s husband? Well Shannon just got a new tatt and ummm… Yeah. I’ve never seen my last name look so good…

    Celebrity Apprentice is Over and NeNe Leakes is STILL Fighting… [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

    May, 24 2011 | Written by ATLien

    While Beyonce and the billboard awards held our attention, NeNe Leakes and Star Jones faced off one last time during the finale of Celebrity Apprentice.

    Star Jones managed to take a biting parting shot at her arch nemesis, basically calling NeNe an embarrassment to educated Black women everywhere:

    Star: “NeNe has used this platform to attack every Black woman on the show.”

    NeNe: ?It?s not about black, it?s not about a racial thing! YOU used this platform to be very backstabbing and very manipulative!”

    Jones — who had to talk over Leakes’ loud squawking — said that as a professional, she was highly “embarrassed” by Leakes’ behavior.

    Well apparently it’s not just a “Black” thing. NeNe is reportedly still raising hell on Celebrity Apprentice even after walking out on the show.

    Leakes, who is reportedly seeking therapy for an “Anger Management” problem she claims not to have, even came to blows with yet another Celebrity Apprentice cast member during the Finale after party!

        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?
