  • Usher Raymond Attacked in Little 5 Points…. [VIDEO]

    Oct, 28 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Usher Raymond IV was minding his own business chillin with ghosts, goblins & trannies in Little 5 Points last weekend, when he was brutally attacked by some crazy lady dressed as a pilgrim.

    Apparently the pilgrim lady was fighting mad about Usher parking his expensive gas guzzling limousine in a parking spot reserved for the handicapped, so much so that she had to be pulled away by 5 or 6 bystanders.

    Fortunately for Ursh, Elvis was also standing nearby and he saved the popular crooner’s life all while holding on to a magical can of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer.

    Yeah… I know this story sounds like total bullsh*t, but I promise… I could never make up a story this crazy!

    Toni Braxton, Justin Bieber, Kenny Leon Honored During 33rd GA Music Hall of Fame Awards… [PHOTOS]

    Sep, 20 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Toni Braxton cozied up to Usher Raymond Saturday evening during the 33rd Annual Georgia Music Hall of Fame Awards (September 17, 2011).

    The event was held at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in Atlanta and the two posed for a few cute photos backastage as Toni was preparing to accept her induction into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame.

    Braxton, a Maryland native, moved to the “A” in the 1990s and while accepting her award, admitted … “I consider myself a peach.”

    According to the AJC, Toni’s sisters were originally scheduled to perform in her honor, but apparently backed out at the last minute.

    Instead, Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal was given the honors of introducing Toni, and he immediately joked about the camera crew from Toni’s reality show, ?Braxton Family Values,? hanging around backstage.

    [Sidebar: I’m sure that means we’ll be hearing more about the drama that occurred during season 2 Braxton Family Values.]

    Actor Samuel Jackson was on hand to present director Kenny Leon with his induction, which included a performance by Jasmine Guy and Usher and his prot?g? Justin Bieber presented an award to vocal coach Jan Smith. Continue Reading…

    Usher Raymond hit up the Chelsea Lately show Monday night and he promptly but the moves on 50 cents former flame.

    Chelsea Handler is known to flirt quite a bit with Black men who appear on her show, and Usher was no exception. In fact, the 32 year old crooner seemed to have his sights on a new cougar, as he unabashedly flirted with the late night host.

    Handler asked Ursh if rumors of him traveling with his own personal hot tub were true. Wherein, he responded that his hot tub makes for ?a little after-party motivation”.

    “I normally do it alone, but if you decide you wanna come back stage we can play in there!””You know what?” Handler said, before bringing up the mogul?s prized prot?g?. “Justin Bieber tries to pull this sh*t when he comes on here — now I know where he learns it from!”

    Handler added she’s “too big for” Bieber, to which Usher remarked, “But you’re not too big for me.”

    Hhmph… alrighty then.

        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. 👽🛸

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?
