    In Case You Missed It ~ Monica & Derek Blanks on The Mo’Nique Show + “Still Standing” Episode 2

    Nov, 5 2009 | Written by ATLien

    BET Videos

    Two of my favorite people were on television the other night and I totally missed them! Monica AND Celebrity Photographer Derek Blanks hit the stage on the Mo”Nique show earlier this week and it was like a family affair. Mo Nique invited Monica’s mom onstage for a mini interview and Monica’s boo Rocko even came out.? During Derek’s interview he seemed a bit uncomfortable. He’s so accustomed to being behind the camera that I’m sure it was a bit unnerving, but Mo quickly helped ease his nerves. That’s why I love them both so much!? Support is key!

    The show concluded with Monica performing “Still Standing.” It was such a great show! I just wish I had been in the audience that day. And speaking of “Still Standing,”? if you missed Episode 2 of Monica’s BET reality show, you can watch it below: Continue Reading…

    Bob Whitfield Still Wants His Last Name Back… (Audio)

    Nov, 4 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Bob & Sheree Whitfield

    I told y’all a few weeks ago about former Falcon Bob Whitfield’s Twitter Rant where he went off on his ex-wife, Real Housewives of Atlanta star Sheree’ Whitfield. Bob hit up the Nigel and Marco radio show where he dished on his ex and admits that he only did it to get Sheree’ to call him back.? It worked…and has since been deleted, but Bob went on to reveal that he’s been holding on to at least one piece of their failed marriage. A Sex Tape!

    During the call, Bob also reveals why Sheree’s appearance has chanced over all these years. A new nose, breasts, shopping sprees… yeah… all that. Bob’s taking all the credit and says that Sheree’ is like an experiment gone awry: Continue Reading…

    Monica, along with Rocko and their 2 beautiful sons Lil Rocko and Romelo celebrated with an afternoon of bowling and fun at Red Carpet Lanes Sunday evening. The event was filmed live for Monica’s new BET Reality Show “Still Standing” and the celebration also brought out quite a few celebs with their kiddies! Jermaine Dupri, Celebrity Photographer Derick Blanks, Rock City, and many more of Atlanta?s music community that has been down with Monica since day one, all came through to celebrate family and share in Monica’s success.

    RomeloRomelo blows out his candles! He’s such a cutie!!

    Lil RockoLil Rock is 4? Where’d all that time go? Adorable!!

    The party was billed as a birthday celebration for both Lil Rocko and Romelo but Monica let me in on a lil secret. It wasn’t actually either of the boy’s birthdays but Lil Rock wanted a day they both could share, so being the great Mom that she is…Mo gave her babies what they wanted. She explains it in the video below and also addresses why she chooses to keep her show “drama free”: Continue Reading…

📌 Kandi filed on Nov 24
📌 Todd responded Nov 26
📌 On Dec 1, Kandi amended her petition AND filed a motion to seal the case 😳

Todd says he’s got the kids, Kandi wants the prenup enforced, and she wants to keep it all hush-hush from folks like me… but you know I’m reading it anyway! 🫢 Full video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/live/zifcIgQVA0A?si=lLU6kMnMMJJdqy_5

        Kandi Burruss filed an amended complaint after Tod Kandi Burruss filed an amended complaint after Todd’s attorney called her out for procedural errors. She’s now asking for primary physical custody of the kids, and basically saying Bravo’s uncut footage should be subpoenaed too 👀

This ain’t reality TV — it’s real life, and it’s getting messy QUICK. And if Todd thought he was gon’ walk off with the kids? Kandi said: “Nah, I want it all.”

        For YEARS y’all invited us into everything — t For YEARS y’all invited us into everything — the love, the prenup, the babies, the fights, the businesses… all of it on reality TV.
But NOW that the divorce is in court, suddenly it’s “seal the documents & protect my privacy”? 🤔

Meanwhile Todd ain’t trying to seal a thing.
So what changed? And what doesn’t she want the public to see?
Let’s talk about it… 👀🍿

        They try to silence strong Black women for telling They try to silence strong Black women for telling the truth — but somehow misogyny gets rewarded with views, clicks, and applause.

What’s even more disturbing? So many women are cheering it on.
At some point, we have to ask: Why is disrespect toward Black women still profitable?

This isn’t entertainment.
This is accountability.

        This was not a “read.” This was an unprovoked, This was not a “read.” This was an unprovoked, problematic rant — and it needed to be called out. Junkie Dineva went after Tamar Braxton’s parents, upbringing, and mental health for no legitimate reason, and that kind of misogyny should never be excused as entertainment.

Going viral for disrespecting Black women is the real issue — and that’s what we’re unpacking on ATLien Live.

        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. 👽🛸
