Kandi brought along her fiance’ Todd Tucker, to play bartender for the night.? She also addressed the upcoming controversy surrounding Mama Joyce’s feelings about her man.

During RHOA S6:E1, Nene Leakes reveals that ~~red-eyes~~ Kenya didn’t call, write or even RSVP about coming to her wedding, yet she starts an argument about her fake ex-boyfriend Walter Jackson being invited.

When asked by a caller, Moore blatantly states that she didn’t RSVP for Nene Leake’s wedding because she ‘didn’t want to go’ (you could hear Kandi gasping in the background), she then reveals that she doesn’t even know what RSVP means.

FOR DISCUSSION: Did Kerry Washington’s SNL Skit Diffuse or Deflect Kenan Thompson’s Controversial ‘No Diversity’ Statement? [VIDEO]

Nov, 4 2013 | Written by ATLien

Actress Kerry Washington of Scandal revealed her baby bump on the recent episode of Saturday Night Live and she also helped the show address SNL vet Kenan Thompson‘s controversial comments regarding the show’s lack of diversity.

In case you haven’t heard, Thompson (who happens to be an Atlanta native) recently caught a ton of flack after he made a statement that that Black women who audition for roles on the show simply haven?t been ?ready? for prime time.

?It?s just a tough part of the business,? he told TV Guide. ?Like in auditions, they just never find ones that are ready.?

While Thompson’s comments may have rang true, the show took advantage of Washington’s appearance on the show to reveal it’s response to the drama.

In one single skit, Washington portrays Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey.? When she’s asked to exit the Oval Office a third time to return as Beyonce, a voice over and text reveals SNL’s apologetic response.
