  • EXCLUSIVE! One on One with Sweetie Hughes (She’s NOT a Slave or a Thief!) ~ [VIDEO]

    Feb, 15 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Sweetie Hughes, the former assistant to Kim Zolciak of The Real Housewives of Atlanta was a huge topic last season after NeNe Leakes pointed out that Kim treated her like her personal “slave”.

    [click here to revisit that classic bus fight video!]

    I have to admit watching Kim yell at Sweetie was a bit hard at times, and while I’ve heard first hand that the two were actually really close friends, I can almost understand the whole “Free Sweetie” campaign that started after NeNe’s harsh comments.

    I told you way back in September 2011, that Sweetie had been freed fired from her job after Kim’s daughter Brielle let the word slip out via a social networking site and life has gone on Sweetie, who’s currently a 24 year old college student.

    Things made a drastic change for Hughes when someone created a rumor about her being fired for stealing.

    When I spoke with Sweetie, that was one of the many things she addressed: Continue Reading…

    Jun, 28 2011 | Written by ATLien

    If you’re an avid hip-hop head, this highly accessorized dude may look vaguely family to you and he should. Besides the fact that he lost a few pounds, this platinum selling rapper’s looks haven’t really changed THAT much.

    It may be the blank stare in his eyes, or perhaps it’s the way he holds his mouth… Whatever it is, I’m sure somewhere in the back of your mind, you’re hearing “Who?”

    Do you know the identity of this former “fatty”?? Answer below… Continue Reading…

    Tiffany Green: Winner of 2011 BET Awards Most Awkward Moment… [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

    Jun, 27 2011 | Written by ATLien

    I’m almost positive that BET’s”Your World Our World” contest winner Tiffany Green had NO IDEA what was in store for her during the 2011 BET Awards last night, but Green ended up being the BUTT of one of the biggest jokes since Eminem met Bruno’s during the 2010 MTV movic awards.

    Tiffany’s appearance has become the most talked about moment during the awards show and she didn’t even perform!

    Green hit the stage with 106 & Park hosts Terrence J and Rocsi to present the Viewers? Choice Award, reading off the tablet and happily announcing “Chris Brown” as the winner, she then looked stunned as she looked at the teleprompter and saw “Rihanna” and stated… “I’m sorry, it’s Rihanna for What’s My Name”

    Finally Terrence called Drake’s name and Drake immediately appeared onstage to accept the award, stating the quote of the evening: ?Well that was awkward?…

    Tiffany Green immediately became the scapegoat for BET’s not so funny joke…

    Video & more below: Continue Reading…

    Feb, 2 2011 | Written by ATLien

    New York has a “new” look.? She’s decided to shed the weave and rock her natural hair in a new photoshoot with photographer Antoine Revelli.

    It’s not the first time Tiff has shed her fake hair, she took it all out about two years ago when she was still semi in the limelight.

    New York looks adorable in natural hair but I’m still rid’n with Keesh about my own decision not to go there…

    Bishop Thomas Weeks III + Flavor Flav + Ike Turner = Your Future

    Sep, 19 2008 | Written by ATLien

    Evangelist Juanita Bynum’s ex-hubby, Bishop Thomas Weeks, III, is single again and back on the prowl! ?I know all you single men women out there can’t wait to grab up this one. ?Well, now’s your chance! Weeks is next up on the d-list celebrity circus known as the reality dating show. 😕

    Weeks will document his effort to open his heart to love again in 10 streaming video ?Webisodes? starting next Tuesday on his Web site www.bishopweeks.com. The idea came after Weeks was flooded with thousands of e-mails and letters from people offering advice about what to look for in his third wife. Some even offered to be his wife.

    ?There are some very adamant women,? says Weeks? associate, Minister Guy Reeves of Global Destiny. ?A lady from Belgium flew all the way here to meet him. She came to the campus. She wanted to be the next Mrs. Weeks like many others who have approached me about their strong desire to be Bishop Weeks? wife.? (Source)?

    What the….?!? ? I won’t even curse about the fighting church folk today…but I bet Juanita could get VH1. 😆

        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?
