  • They Say: Cynthia Bailey’s Sister Malorie Has Way More Marital Drama Than She Does… [PHOTOS]

    Dec, 11 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Model/socialite/newlywed Cynthia Bailey of the Real Housewives of Atlanta has had a wee bit of drama over the past few seasons and fans are urging her to turn up the heat.

    Cynthia promised prior to the beginning of the season, that things were going to be heated but so far it’s?only been luke warm.

    Most of Bailey’s drama is related to her connection to NeNe Leakes… ie Kim Zolciak has battled Cynthia on twitter and recently Sheree Whitfield came for her on her RHOA blog, roasting her marriage to Peter Thomas.

    The family saga has continued since Cynthia’s first season on the show between her 44 year old sister, Malorie Bailey-Massie, and Cynthia’s hubby, but in my opinion, that’s almost like a rerun of the wedding drama.

    As Malorie further dug in Cynthia’s marital drama, Bailey hinted that the Massies have drama of their own in their marriage. Malorie is married to a much younger boo, 34 year old Chris Massie, who plays professional basketball overseas and he’s definitely a cutie.

    But leave it to the internet to spill the TEA on Mal and her baller boo.

    Details as well as photos below… Continue Reading…

    Twitter Beef! RHOA Kim Zolciak Guns For NeNe Leakes AND Cynthia Bailey…

    Nov, 22 2011 | Written by ATLien

    The Real Housewives of Atlanta is way more real than you could ever imagine. So much so, that newlywed Kim Zolciak feels the need respond to the resident bully NeNe Leakes online.

    NeNe tweeted last week that Kim and Kroy were renting their fabulous new estate (which you can see HERE) and while “Everybody knows it’s true that Kim is renting” (stated in my Phaedra Parks voice), Kim wasn’t too pleased about NeNe saying it and decided to spill NeNe’s tea online (she even dragged ex housewife Lisa Wu into it)…

    Notice that Kimmy didn’t deny that she’s renting, only that NeNe is renting too!

    These chicks slay me…. we all know NeNe doesn’t own anything, especially after she and Gregg were busted by that investigative reporter participating in mortgage scams.

    But I digress…

    NeNe’s sidekick Cynthia Bailey also got dragged into the online drama, after Kim felt some kinda way about what Cynthia said on the after show.

    More of the recent online Atlanta housewives battle below… Continue Reading…

    RHOA Cynthia Bailey Hosts 2011 Soul Train Awards After Party… [PHOTOS]

    Nov, 18 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Cynthia Bailey of The Real Housewives of Atlanta and her hubby Peter Thomas played host an after party for The 2011 Soul Train Awards that taped yesterday (November 17, 2011) at Atlanta’s Fox Theatre.

    [PHOTO GALLERY: 2011 Soul Train Awards Red Carpet]

    Jill Scott, Marsha Ambrosius and more all came through Peter’s midtown hot spot, Bar One for drinks and appetizers as they took a moment to unwind after the show.

    Just FYI, Cynthia played BET correspondent on the red carpet this year, so the after party doubled as a celebration for a successful evening.

    Also spotted celebrating with Cynthia and Peter were BET’s Stephen Hill, soulful crooner Joe, Lalah Hathaway, Celebrity Photographer Derek Blanks, Basketball wife Tami Roman and of course castmate Sheree Whitfield (who was spotted boo’d up with a “naughty” hip-hop legend).

    From Hip-Hop to High-Fashion! Who Knew Cynthia Bailey Was A Video Vixen? [PHOTOS + VIDEOS]

    Nov, 9 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Model/socialite Cynthia Bailey of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is a consummate professional when it comes to taking pics.

    The sexy newlywed posed for the photo above at Atlanta’s Bar One lounge, her hubby Peter Thomas‘ new restaurant venture, which hosted the RHOA Season 4 premiere party last Sunday evening (November 6, 2011).

    Cynthia is way more than a supermodel/”housewife”/reality show star… did you know she’s also an old school video vixen?

    After we heard the sad news that rapper Heavy D had passed away, Cynthia tweeted her condolences along with verification that she was in Heavy D’s “Nuttin But Love” video…

    But hold up… Cynthia was not only in that one vintage video. She’s in at least TWO Heavy D videos (that we know of)….

    SHOCKER! NeNe & Gregg Leakes Boo’d Up at RHOA Premiere Party… [PHOTOS]

    Nov, 7 2011 | Written by ATLien

    NeNe Leakes and her hubby Gregg were spotted boo’d up last night at the Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 4 premiere party, which was held at Bar One Lounge in Atlanta (Peter Thomas‘ new restaurant venture)

    It’s not like this should be a surprise to anyone who reads StraightFromTheA.com on the regular. I was the one who clued you guys in on the couple’s shinanigans way back in July, when I saw them boo’d up at the Essence Festival (and yeah MediaFakeOut claimed it was their exclusive after they stole my pics and cropped out my watermark… but I digress.)

    NeNe toned down her “Extra” concealer for the evening and pretended that Gregg was just an interested party-goer… chilling throughout the evening with hosts Cynthia Bailey and Carlton Morton, as well as BFF’s Diana Gowins and wannabe “housewife” Marlo Hampton.

    The gangs all there! Two housewives and two flunkies possibles…

    [Sidebar: I wonder why Diana won’t just bite the bullet and sign up… it’s not like her background ain’t drama filled too!]

    Spotted in the crowd of spectators were Robert Townsand, RL (of next), Cole from Martin Actor Carl Payne, and of course celebrity hairstylist Derek J stopped through in all his head-wrapped FABU-LOUS-NESS!

        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?
