  • Make Ups and Break Ups: Basketball Wives Season 4 Episode 17 (Reunion Part 2) [FULL VIDEO]

    Jun, 12 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Part 2 of the Basketball Wives Season 4 reunion show aired last night (June 11, 2012) and surprise! surprise! Jennifer Williams and Evelyn Lozada made up!

    The entire 4th season of Basketball Wives consisted of Evelyn and Jennifer fighting (on air and off) and the two publicly declared their friendship dead.

    Jennifer, who was carted back and forth from backstage during her segments (as if she was a threat to the ladies) voluntarily took a lie detector test to prove that she’d been telling the truth. Both ladies said they simply wanted closure during the reunion show, but in a surprise moment that seemed to shocked the entire cast, Ev and Jenn were finally able to admit that they missed their friendship, and they came together to hug and talk things out.

    It was actually Jennifer’s polygraph test that catapulted the two former BFF’s to make up on air. *sigh*

    In case you missed it, watch the full video of Basketball Wives Season 4 Reunion (Part 2) below: Continue Reading…

    Mugshot Mania ~ Woman Fraudulently Claims $2.1 Million Dollar Refund Using TurboTax

    Jun, 11 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Meet 25-year old Krysta Marie Reyes.

    Reyes was recently arrested in Salem, Oregon after she fraudulently reported $3 million in wages on an income tax return she filed online through TurboTax and she claimed $2.1 million in refunds, which worked its way through the software’s system and was approved by the state.

    A Visa debit card loaded with the refund was in her hands within a few weeks and Reyes, who resided in a modest apartment, began to spend the dough as if it was her birthday.

    Unfortunately for her, she got caught when she reported ANOTHER state issued debit card lost or stolen, which prompted an investigation.

        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?
