  • SHOCKER! Nene Leakes Clarifies That She & Kim Zolciak Are NOT “Friends”… [VIDEO]

    Nene Kim Reunion

    There’s been a ton of inquiries in my inbox bout Nene Leakes and Kim Zolciak‘s RHOA reunion show “lovefest” and I initially refused to post about it because I knew it was all a farce.

    [READ: RHOA Reunion Show Tea! (Spoiler Alert)… ]

    Let me back up… I’ve maintained all along that Zolciak was given the boot from RHOA due to her bickering with fellow cast members about when and where they would tape.

    The ?vets? (Nene Leakes, Pheadra Parks, Kandi Burruss?and?Cynthia Bailey) all banned together last summer and REFUSED to tape due to the fact that Kim either always left tapings early or sometimes wouldn?t show up at all.

    I?ve said it several times but told y?all the whole story when I posted the Season 5 premiere a few weeks ago (click HERE?to revisit that post).

    Nene even confirmed that Zolciak was history and that it would be “Brown Girls” only on RHOA…

    [FLASHBACK: In the tweets: Nene Confirms Kim Was FIRED from RHOA… ]

    Trust me when I tell you the two are not what they used to be… the real tea is that while the two may have made amends from their bitter past, they’re definitely NOT bosom buddies and now Nene is even denying that Kim is even a “friend”.

    Atlanta Housewives Hit Bravo Upfront 2013 + Guess Who’s Returning Next Season… [PHOTOS]

    Apr, 4 2013 | Written by ATLien

    Kandi Porsha 2013
    Kandi Burruss and Porsha Stewart of The Real Housewives of Atlanta struck a pose as they attended Bravo’s annual Upfront event last night (April 3, 2013).

    The annual event is held to introduce the network’s renewed/new shows to sponsors and advertisers.? Dinner is served and network executives and talent from the shows mix and mingle with ad execs.

    [READ: It’s Official! Phaedra Parks “Rich People Problems” Hits Bravo… ]

    The “housewives” invited to the event normally gives clues to the returning cast members each season. For example, last year… Sheree Whitfield was the only one NOT invited and of course we all know what that meant…

    Quick Quotes: Kandi Reveals Why It Took So Long To File “Tardy For The Party” Lawsuit…

    Mar, 19 2013 | Written by ATLien

    Kandi Kim Lawsuit
    In case you haven’t heard by now, last week?Kandi Burruss of the Real Housewives of Atlanta finally filed a lawsuit against her former co-star Kim Zolciak (click HERE if you missed that).

    For the record, most who have paid attention to the situation either thought one or two things: 1. it was about time that Kandi went after Kim the money she was never paid for creating/producing the catchy song, or 2. it was all a publicity stunt for Kim and/or Kandi’s new show, especially considering it took almost 2 years for Kandi to file (and the fact that her attorney in the case is her RHOA co-star Phaedra Parks.)

    Kandi and Kim were both reportedly banned from mentioning the lawsuit during the Season 5 Reunion Show taping.

    Whatever the case, here’s what Kandi has to say about her decision to sue… Continue Reading…

    Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta has decided that enough is enough and she’s just not gonna take it anymore!

    The RHOA reunion is going down today as a matter of fact and as if on cue, Burruss has officially filed a lawsuit against former fellow “housewife” Kim Zolciak (remember her?) seeking damages stemming from “copyright infringement due to Defendants’ unauthorized and unlawful licensing, distribution and sale of Plaintiffs’ creative works, namely a sound recording embodying a performance of a musical composition entitled ‘Tardy for the Party. ‘

    POW!

    It’s about to be a (what?) a GIRL FIGHT!

        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?
