    The two shared the stage during VH1’s DIVA’s the other night, while a fight was brewing behind the scenes. It appears that Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Kim Zolciak feels that castmate NeNe Leakes has been tryna take credit for penning her top 10 dance hit “Tardy For the Party” and makes no qualms about it during her red carpet interview. Kim states that she was quite “disturbed” by NeNe’s? claims and says that her 9 year old daughter wrote the song along with her music instructor:

    Of course you already know that Mrs. Leakes was’t gonna let that slide…and she stated her rebuttal quick fast in a hurry while at the same event: Continue Reading…

    Flix ~ Alter Ego’s of The Real Housewives of Atlanta

    Sep, 18 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Sheree Whitfield ~ Alter Ego by D. Blanks

    “Gimme the LOOT!…Gimme the LOOT!”

    Super celebrity photographer Derek Blanks never ceases to amaze me! During this season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Derek took on the challenge of creating his signature Alter Ego scenarios for the cast members of Bravo’s most popular show. The photos were shot earlier this year but kept under wraps until the airing of last night’s show. Each housewife portrayed images thought up by fellow castmate NeNe Leakes. They’re all simply hilarious! Sheree’ Whitfield (above), widely recognized for her “7 figure settlement” statement during the first season of the show is photographed robbing herself at an ATM, while Lisa Wu-Hartwell (below) is shot portraying good vs. evil by stealing cookies from herself.

    Lisa Wu-Hartwell ~ Alter Ego by D. BlanksI love it! Motorcycle chick meets girl scout.

    The crowd favorite, NeNe Leakes, poked fun at her former stripper self by portraying a stripper vs. a goodie two shoes in Magic City: Continue Reading…

    In The Tweets ~ Ghetto Reality “Stars” Fight For Relevance

    Sep, 4 2009 | Written by ATLien

    kim zolciak twitter

    Real Housewives of Atlanta “star” Kim Zolciak got really pissed off yesterday when she saw that Keyshia Cole’s sister Neffe had published her personal cell phone information on Twitter. I wouldn’t know first hand, since that account blocked my “A”zz a long time ago for calling it out as fake but I guess I’ll take Kim’s word for it. Back when I tried to clarify Neffe’s Twitter, she stated that although it is her account, she doesn’t personally run it. When pressed, Neffe said she didn’t even have the sign in information. Now, I’m not picking sides AT ALL cause either one or both of them is vying for our attention. If her info was released I’m not so sure Neffe did it. But whatever the case, Kim may wanna fall back. Neffe & Frankie wouldn’t hesitate to pull her wig off AND kick some “A”zz.

    Y’all can fall for it…. I ain’t buying it.

    Kim Zolciak’s Wig, Mouth & Nipples Protest for NOH8 Campaign

    Sep, 4 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Kim Zolciak NOH8 campaign

    Real Houswives of Atlanta “star” Kim Zolciak seems to have fulfilled her dreams of posing nude for Playboy recently in her NOH8 campaign photoshoot. Wearing only her signature wig and duct tape, Kim is photographed lovingly shielding her nipples from the hateful words of the opponents of California’s proposition 8.

    “I feel so strongly about gay rights for several reasons, most importantly two of my family members are gay and my Uncle John was personally affected. He was denied rights that all heterosexual Americans are allowed. I believe that regardless of your gender you should be able to choose who your partner is, whether it be same-sex or not. I am all for people being happy. I posed topless to make a LOUD statement to help this wonderful cause. Thank you NOH8 Campaign!” – Kim Zolciak

    You tell em’ girl! Read more about the NOH8 Campaign HERE.

    Flix ~ Atlanta Housewives & More Support NoH8 Campaign

    Sep, 1 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Kandi, Dwight & ShereePhotos by FreddyO

    Real Housewives of Atlanta castmates, Sheree Whitfield, Kandi Burris, Kim Zolciak & unofficial 6th housewife, Dwight Eubanks recently took part in a photo campaign against hate. They were also joined by author J.L. King, V-103 radio personality Miss Sophia and Rasheeda. Adam Bouska and Jeff Parshley of NoH8Campaign.com are Los Angeles based photographers and co-creators of the highly visible campaign. What began as a small grassroots movement in the wake of Proposition 8 passing in California, which effectively banned same-sex couples from legalizing their unions, has now turned into a full fledged movement.

    The campaign started with portraits of every day Californians who supported marriage equality but soon expanded to Celebrities and supporters in general. The photos feature subjects with duct tape over their mouths symbolizing their voices not being heard and the letters NOH8 painted on one cheek in protest.

        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?
