The reunion has been taped and while I’m sure Miss. Mona Scott Young pimped the cast for all the drama she could during those last few hours, Monday night, as we know it, will soon come to an end.
A friend an I were chatting over dinner the other day about how season one of LHHATL seemed much more “realistic” than the current season. Perhaps it was the sudden popularity of the cast that changed things but season 2 just seemed way too glossed over and fake.
Acting lessons aside… if there’s a 3rd season of LHHATL, maybe Mona should consider making a few changes to keep fans engaged.

subject: Dexter King’s WifeMichelle! What’s the tea on Dexter King’s new wife? I found a video YouTube whre she started a LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Transexual) dating site. I also found the site’s facebook page and the twitter account but can’t find anything else about her.
It’s called “EliteNoire” or EliteNoire.com but there is no website coming up.
I’m sure you have more entertaining posts to write, but please follow up about this interesting information about the newest member of the King family.
This is Atlanta history and it’s driving me crazy that I can’t find a picture or any information at all.

I don’t know about you guys… but I’m actually quite proud of Kirk and Rasheeda for “taking over” the show from all those transplants… even though they had to fake it to make it. But I digress…
