    Jul, 10 2013 | Written by ATLien

    Phaedra Parks of The Real Housewives of Atlanta is suing one of her crazy obsessed fans, Angela Stanton, for defamation.

    [FLASHBACK: Fan Mail: Author Angie Stanton is Eerily OBSESSED With Phaedra Parks]

    Lies of a Real Housewife - Book - Angela StantonStanton, who wrote the book Lies of a Real Housewife, had been dodging service of the suit for the longest but recently began sending out “press releases” announcing she was to face Parks in court.

    [READ: Angela Stanton Who? VIBE Backpedals on Parks Tell-All…]

    Stanton and Parks were finally scheduled to face each other in court this month (July 18), that is… until Stanton got on twitter glorifying the incarceration of Park’s “key” witness, who happens to be Stanton’s baby daddy.

    While some of you were silently cheering for Phaedra to fail, Stanton may have actually set up her own demise with a series of underhanded antics, which included this announcement on twitter.

    Rumor Control: Phaedra Parks DID NOT SETTLE Multi-Million Dollar VIBE Lawsuit + Angela Stanton Added As Defendant… [PHOTOS]

    Oct, 15 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Yesterday TMZ posted an “exclusive” story about Real Housewives of Atlanta star Phaedra Parks and her multi-million dollar lawsuit against VIBE magazine.

    [FLASHBACK: Angela Who? VIBE Back Pedals on “Lies of A Real Housewife” Scandalous Phaedra Parks “Tell All” ]

    The normally astute gossip site erroneously reported that Parks and her mother, Regina Belle, had settled their defamation lawsuit with the magazine for what amounted to be the cost of a new purse.

    While the story made for great Sunday morning gossip, it wasn’t true. Unfortunately I don’t work on Sundays, but I tried to warn bloggers and the like via Twitter, as soon as y’all started sending me the link:

    Guess what? I was right… 🙂

    Here’s the TRUTH about the situation… HOT TEA ALERT! Continue Reading…

    Phaedra Parks Files $30 Million Dollar Lawsuit Against VIBE! [COURT DOC DETAILS]

    May, 25 2012 | Written by ATLien

    Phaedra Parks of The Real Housewives of Atlanta isn’t playing around with all the rumor and innuendo surrounding that scandalous “Lies of a Housewife” book.

    Since VIBE first launched their social media campaign disguised as an “exclusive” story, it was quite evident to me that they were out to sell something and once I discovered that VIBE financially backed the book, written by ex-con Angela Stanton, it all made sense.

    If you recall, I brought to your attention how the publishing leg of the popular magazine backpedaled on several issues in the book.

    [READ: Angela Who? VIBE Backpedals on Scandalous Tell-All Facts… ]

    Well now Parks has decided that it’s time to go after the BIG BUX and is suing the publishing company for a total of $30 MILLION DOLLARS, stating VIBE “knowingly and purposely avoided and ignored evidence establishing the falsity of the articles, interviews, and the book prior to publishing them.

    Extensive details from the court documents below…? Continue Reading…

    Fan Mail: Angela Stanton (Tell-All Author) is Eerily OBSESSED With Phaedra Parks

    Apr, 9 2012 | Written by ATLien

    A woman of the cloth reached out to me recently hoping to warn people about Angela Stanton, the author of that “housewives” tell-all book that claimed Phaedra Parks was once involved in criminal activity.

    I told y’all in a previous post that Stanton’s book was rapidly falling on Amazon’s seller’s list, well it’s fallen further to #25,933 as of today, probably because of all the backpedaling Vibe (the publisher of the book) has been doing regarding the “facts” in Stanton’s electronic booklet.

    [READ: Angela Stanton Who? VIBE Backpedals on Parks Tell-All…]

    Stanton has been on the social networking site, Twitter, quoting scripture but calls anyone who questions her motives a liar, lame, fraud, false prophet, fat, ugly… everything but a child of God.

    Her irrational tweets caught the eye of a Pastor on twitter who reached out to tell me how mentally unstable Angela Stanton is:

    Hey Michelle.

    My friend and I had actually planned on doing this tour with Angie until it became all about Phaedra!

    It started as ‘we wanna change the lives of young girls’. I have a story, [name removed] has a story so we thought it would be great. It was supposed to be in Oct.

    We would have conference calls etc about who was gonna be a part of this tour. She claimed that she has major connects that was helping her with this book and tour. But as time went by, we noticed that every time she saw or spoke about Phaedra she would get angry, almost like she was obsessed with her. Continue Reading…

    FanMail ~ “Why So Mum” About Phaedra Parks…? [The Post You All Have Been Waiting For]

    subject: Why so mum?

    ATLien,…I am quite surprised at the deafening silence on this whole Phaedra Parks / Angela Stanton crime ring story. What’s up with that? Almost feels like major bias. Even if you don’t believe the source, shouldn’t you at least inform the public of what the allegations are and let them make a decision.

    I know you aren’t afraid of a little legal action by way of Atlanta’s resident High Powered Celebrity Attorney turned Housewife.

    What gives?

    Love the blog,

        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. 👽🛸

        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?
