    Tameka ‘Tiny’ Cottle attended Mariah Carey’s Halloween party last weekend and caused quite a stir when she posed in a group photo with boxer Floyd Mayweather.

    As you know, Tiny’s relationship with Floyd was a huge bone of contention between she and T.I. a few years back ?when she was separated from her husband. ?Her association with the boxer even sparked a huge Vegas street brawl between the two wealthy men.

    Another day, another scandal involving Mariah Carey’s live singing capabilities.

    It was just a few months ago that Mariah blamed audio techs for leaking her horrible sounding vocals from her Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree lighting performance (CLICK HERE if you missed that).

    Well… after having that noise immortalized on tape, Carey insured she’d sound great during her performance at the 2015 Jazz & Blues Festival in Jamaica last weekend by PRETENDING to sing.

    Mariah Carey Rockefeller 2014 - StraightFromTheA
    Mariah Carey claims that she’s the victim of disgruntled staff after a video of her schreeching through her performance has gone viral.

    Carey hit the stage for the annual Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree lighting Wednesday evening and she wowed the crowed with her stellar vocals… but apparently the REAL (less than stellar) vocals were disguised by savvy audio technicians to make her sound great.

    Somehow, video of Mariah’s REAL vocals surfaced online and she’s blaming those same techs for the leak!

    David and Tamela Mann - Ebony Black Love 2014

    Ebony Magazine has revealed the three couples who cover the February 2014 issue of their annual ‘Black Love’ edition.

    [FLASHBACK:?T.I. and Tiny + Other Couples Cover Ebony Magazine’s 2013 ‘Black Love’ Edition (PHOTOS)]

    David and Tamela Mann StraightFromTheADavid and Tamela Mann, aka Mr. Brown & Cora from Tyler Perry’s ‘Meet The Browns,’ are my favorite of the three couples who cover this year’s ‘Black Love’ issue and I feel they deserve the top spot in this post after maintaining a 25 year marriage.

    The cute couple revealed?how they maintain the passion in their relationship, stating:

    Stay in love because when you?re in love, it covers a multitude of fault. Our relationship wasn?t based on good sex or having a lot of money. It was based on just straight friendship. That?s what has kept us.? ?David Mann

    ?I pray and ask God to keep my heart and my eyes burning only for David Mann. I speak his name in my prayers, because I want the desire to stay, so when he touches me, I get chills.? ?Tamela Mann

    The other two couples covering the Ebony’s February 2014 ‘Black Love edition are Lala Vasquez and her hubby Carmelo Anthony and Mariah Carey and her hubby Nick Cannon.

    Check out the covers below + check out what each couple has to say about keeping love alive… Continue Reading…

        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?
