I don’t know if you’ve heard, but Winfrey was in Atlanta last week and was spotted at the CNN center attempting to grab lunch.? I’m still not sure what she was doing in town and am kinda pissed that she didn’t call me, but Miss O will be back in the “A” soon enough.

Remember Charles Grant, the former NFL ball player to whom Marlo Hampton, the background character on season 4 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, was fictionally engaged?
Grant, who’s rap sheet is almost as long as his fake fiance’s, was popped late last year for bouncing a $500 bad check which coincidentally is when Hampton publicly fessed up about their “relationship” being over.

Grant hasn’t really played ball since he was released from the Saints in 2010 and word on the curb is that his accounts are all frozen due to tax woes and in addition to all of that he’s been placed on of the ever growing list of “deadbeat” dads.

Originally predicted to rake in about $17 million opening weekend, TLAM’s numbers far exceeded expectations to the tune of $33 million with just a $12 million dollar budget for an all-star celebrity ensemble cast.

It’s no doubt that extreme marketing efforts like the celebrity surprise Producer Will Packer launched on several Atlanta theatres opening weekend, played a hand in the box office success of the flick.
Think Like a Man opened to an estimated $33 million from just 2,015 theaters.
The movie’s $16,377 per-theater average is third-highest for a nationwide release so far this year behind The Hunger Games ($36,871) and The Lorax ($18,830) and significantly above huge hits like The Vow, Safe House and 21 Jump Street.
Its opening was also better than nearly all comparable titles, including all Tyler Perry movies except Madea Goes to Jail ($41 million). (source)

The final episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 4 Reunion aired last night (April 23, 2012) and it was almost painful to watch.
NeNe Leakes claimed to be “that b*tch” by announcing during the show that if it wasn’t for her, neither Sheree Whitfield or Kim Zolciak would be housewives. 
As you know Sheree “quit” after Bravo fired her, but it almost appeared as if everyone knew she was out. Kim even gave NeNe her props for changing her life and made a statement like ” things can be taken away from you if you take them for granted.”
There was even a lil going away segment edited into Part 3 of the reunion, which taped prior to Sheree’s announcement.
Kandi Burruss got into a yelling match with Marlo Hampton about her about old “music industry” money vs. Marlo’s new “escort” money.
