    May, 3 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta welcomed special guest Dr. Ian Smith to her weekly late night talk show “Kandi Koated Nights,” which was taped at TAGS Boutique clothing store last night (May 2, 2012).

    Kandi, as well as her Kandi Koated Nights co-hosts Nikki Nicole and DJ AOne dove into the subject head first by discussing the evening’s topic, “What Do Men Really Want?” which coincided with Dr. Ian Smith’s new book on the subject, entitled?The Truth About Men: The Secret Side of the Opposite Sex.

    SFTA partner in crime Funky Dineva also appeared on the show briefly to give a bit of LIVE tea about our field trip to Chateau Sheree and Kandi took a moment to address the tweet she sent that caused so much controversy.

    Kandi Burruss Hosts Kandi Koated Nights with Special Guest Tyra Sanchez (Drag Race) [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

    Apr, 27 2012 | Written by ATLien

    I attended Kandi Burruss’ weekly late night talk show Kandi Koated Nights this week and her special guest was Tyra Sanchez, the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race.

    Kandi, Tyra, DJ AOne, Nikki Nicole as well as comedians ?Yohanc? Collins and Chris Jones touched on the topic “Girlfriend or Friend Wit Benefits? Who’s Better Off?”

    Interestingly enough Tyra revealed that he/she dates both men and women and that he/she prefers a ‘friend with benefits’ relationship at the moment since he/she has a crush on someone that’s in the industry and Tyra has vowed to save him/her-self until he/she meets them.

    Just FYI… Kandi also spilled a bunch of The Real Housewives of Atlanta like taping starts soon and the newbies have been selected (however she wouldn’t reveal WHO they are).

    Apr, 17 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta held a quick photo op at the Sugar Factory in Las Vegas last Friday (April 13).

    They don’t call her a ‘sugar mama’ for nothing!

    Kandi revealed on Part 1 of the season 4 reunion that she and her new boo Todd have gotten quite serious and may even be living together soon in the beautiful new home she bought a few months ago.

    The grammy award winning singer/songwriter/”housewife”, who is fast becoming the queen of the sex toy industry with her Bedroom Kandi line of goodies, got a sugar fix while rocking a new doo and the proverbial “freakum dress” in a land where anything goes.

    All I know is… her new boo better had been right by her side in Sin City with THAT dress on!

    Bravo Wants More Kandi! ?Kandi Factory? Spin Off Picked Up + RHOA Season Finale Sneak Peek Video!

    Apr, 5 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta totally rocked the “blue” carpet at Bravo’s Upfront 2012 event last night (April 4, 2012) and while rumors swirl that at least one Atlanta “housewife” got a pink slip last night, Kandi just keeps on winning!

    Take notes people… an entrepreneurial spirit will open doors for you, so it pays to be creative!

    Earlier this year, Kandi’s ?Bedroom Kandi??won an AVN award for ?Best Overall Sex Toy? line, an award that surprised even her (since she’d just launched a few months earlier).

    Remember Kandi’s mugshot? She posed for the photo during a celebration after “Bedroom Kandi” was offered a promotional partnership with the Hard Rock Hotel (Chicago).

    And did I mention she has a cute new boo? Yeah… things are going great for Burruss and it just got better with Bravo giving her the Greenlight for “The Kandi Factory”!

    New Doo Alert! Kandi Burruss Lightens Up + Sneak Peek of “Kandi Factory” Reality Show… [VIDEO]

    Feb, 23 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Kandi Burruss of the Real Housewives of Atlanta ran into Reverend Al Sharpton recently and shared the photo above via her Twitter account.

    Looks like Kandi has yet another new doo! She went to a shorter sleeker bob a few weeks ago and now it appears she’s lightened it up quite a bit.? I like!

    Kandi’s prepping for the premiere of her brand new reality show ?The Kandi Factory,? which hits airwaves next week.

    As I revealed back in September, the new show will be kind of a talent contest, where Burruss will turn 2 people into “pop stars”.

    Burruss will give two prot?g?s the opportunity to come to Atlanta and learn the fundamentals of pop music success. She has identified three factors that have to fit perfectly together to create a pop sensation: the song, the look and the performance.

    Burruss and her team of experts at The Kandi Factory will work with the two contestants in order to turn them into music superstars.

    Check out a Sneak Peek of Kandi’s new show below… Continue Reading…

        For YEARS y’all invited us into everything — t For YEARS y’all invited us into everything — the love, the prenup, the babies, the fights, the businesses… all of it on reality TV.
But NOW that the divorce is in court, suddenly it’s “seal the documents & protect my privacy”? 🤔

Meanwhile Todd ain’t trying to seal a thing.
So what changed? And what doesn’t she want the public to see?
Let’s talk about it… 👀🍿

        They try to silence strong Black women for telling They try to silence strong Black women for telling the truth — but somehow misogyny gets rewarded with views, clicks, and applause.

What’s even more disturbing? So many women are cheering it on.
At some point, we have to ask: Why is disrespect toward Black women still profitable?

This isn’t entertainment.
This is accountability.

👇🏾 Let’s talk in the comments.

        This was not a “read.” This was an unprovoked, This was not a “read.” This was an unprovoked, problematic rant — and it needed to be called out. Junkie Dineva went after Tamar Braxton’s parents, upbringing, and mental health for no legitimate reason, and that kind of misogyny should never be excused as entertainment.

Going viral for disrespecting Black women is the real issue — and that’s what we’re unpacking on ATLien Live.

        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. 👽🛸

        🚨 UPDATE: Kenya Moore’s Hair Spa is still clo 🚨 UPDATE: Kenya Moore’s Hair Spa is still closed as of today *Nov 7, 2025! 

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?

She said “one closing down, more to come” — so is this a boss move or a sign she’s liquidating assets after that prenup drama?
