  • Rick Ross’ Titty Balls Featured in GQ Magazine… [PHOTOS]

    Sep, 20 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Rick Ross went topless in GQ magazine recently and everyone’s complaining about it.? Personally, I don’t think I could ever get enough of seeing Rozay? boobs!

    I have this morbid fixation on them, it’s almost like a train wreck…. I don’t want to look, but I just can’t turn away! I have a conversation with celebrity photographer Joi Pearson about this very same subject almost on the daily…

    Rick Ross shows of his physique in the mag with the tag line ?Simple Lessons For Bosses, Dons & B*tches.? and apparently lesson #1 of Rozay’s words of wisdom is, ?Real N*ggas Don?t Send D*ck Flicks.? (I would have to agree with him.)

    CLICK HERE for the behind the scenes video from Rick Ross’ Topless GQ shoot.

    More hilarious than Rick Ross’ breasts is the fact that in the article, GQ refers to him as a ?300 pound, former correctional officer who stole the name of a drug dealer??? I guess we know where they stand. SMH!

    Does Rick Ross’ rotund tatted belly and bodacious ta ta’s offend you or are you as turned on as I am? (don’t judge me) lol

    My Ode to Dramatic Weight Loss Center… [PHOTOS]

    Sep, 20 2011 | Written by ATLien

    So I shed my shyness for about a day and a half and attended the For Sisters Only Expo as a “spokesperson” for Dramatic Weight Loss and V-103’s Elle Duncan, Reginae Carter and several StraightFromTheA.com readers stopped by to say hi.

    Anyone who follows this blog knows my struggles with weight loss and when Dramatic Weight Loss hit me up late last year, I decided to try it.

    I was a bit skeptical about the program at first, so I kept it to myself for a hot second. But blogged my journey when I hit 25lbs and did a video dancing for joy when I hit my 50lb mark (click HERE if you missed that).

    I feel off the wagon for a hot second because I couldn’t believe how FINE I was… I mean, shoot I could finally shop in the regular sizes, you couldn’t tell me NOTHING!? But I hopped back on and have so far hit 73lbs down! Woot Woot!

    Dramatic Weight Loss is NOT paying me to say any of this, so trust me when I tell you THE PROGRAM WORKS!? I believe in it so much, that I basically donated my time to stand in 6inch heels and tell people about it during For Sisters Only.

    And I swear… if one mo person LAUGHS at my before picture!!!!

    Reginae Carter (daughter of Lil Wayne and Toya Wright) takes in my new figure…

    Jennifer Hudson Finally Sets Wedding Date + Receives 2011 Women Doing Good Award… [PHOTOS]

    Sep, 20 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Jennifer Hudson was a vision in red as she accepted her 2011 “Women Doing Good” award from Self Magazine in New York City, September 13, 2011.

    Self Magazine’s Women Doing Good Awards acknowledges women who “saw a need, hatched a plan, then changed the world for the better” and I’m assuming Jennifer’s 88lb weight loss fit the bill.

    [READ: Jennifer Hudson Explains How 88lb Weight Loss Changed Her Life… ]

    Jennifer also brought her adorable son David Otunga, Jr. with her to the festivities and he’s looking more and more like his daddy everyday!

    In case you were wondering when and/or IF Jennifer Hudson and her baby daddy will ever tie the knot, I have the answer + more photos below: Continue Reading…

    Confirmed! Ne-Yo & Monyetta Shaw Are Engaged & Expecting 2nd Child…

    Sep, 20 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Shaffer Smith aka Ne-Yo and her girlfriend Monyetta Shaw have confirmed that they are indeed expecting their 2nd child.

    A SOLID source told me back in March, that Shaw wasted no time in getting knocked up again and had scored her 2nd pregnancy just 4 months after the birth of their daughter Maddie.

    Monyetta was also spotted at Sister2Sister’s Ladies night event back in August, where she appeared to be hiding her baby bump (I guess that’s the new thing now).

    [READ: Baby Bump Watch: #2 For Monyetta Shaw (Ne-Yo’s Baby Mama]

    Ne-Yo, 31, and boutique owner Monyetta’s ten-month-old daughter Madilyn Grace Smith, was born prematurely November 12, 2010 and the singer recently confirmed with US Weekly that they are preparing for the latest arrival to be born in October 2012.

    I think I’ve already said it once, but again… CONGRATULATIONS to the happy couple!!

        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?
