  • Marlo Hampton: No One Knows Her Occupation But At Least She Dresses Nice… [PHOTOS]

    Dec, 21 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Real Housewives of Atlanta wanna-be Marlo Hampton may be called many thangs (ex-con, stunt queen, slasher, tranny, Marko, Mario and Marlon are a sampling of one’s I’ve heard) but one thing’s for sure…. she sure has some nice gear!

    Cute!

    Official RHOA cast member Kandi Burruss caught a ton of flack during last week’s episode, when she grilled Marlo on her “occupation” and while several viewers felt Kandi was overstepping her bounds, I for one felt Kandi deserved an answer.

    So… while the world awaits the revelation of Mario Marlo’s true occupation, she’d prefer you to believe that she has a “Big Poppa” (not to be confused with ‘The” Big Poppa formerly linked to Kim Zolciak). But for some reason I ain’t buying it.

    But I digress…

    Marlon Marlo’s “assistant” (don’t ask… I dunno either) posted a few photos online recently showing off a few keys items from her closet.

    If you’re interested… Continue Reading…

    Would You Let Lil Kim Do Your Hair? Queen Bee Opens N. Carolina Salon…

    Nov, 8 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Word on the curb is that Lil Kim and cousin/business partner Katrise Jones have added a new location to their hair salon franchise.

    Kim chose Charlotte, North Carolina as the latest spot for their venue and held the grand opening for the 5th location of Salon Se Swa on October 31st.

    Patrons can now visit the 3,600 square-foot salon for wash and sets, hair weaves, eyelash sew-ins, relaxers, and wigs.

    Lil Kim teamed up with Jones this past September to become co-owner of Salon Se Swa, which was established by Jones in 1999. The pair now have salon locations in Raleigh, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and Rocky Mount, North Carolina in addition to their latest shop.

    “This new location allows us to cater to a larger customer base and better serve the needs of not only Charlotte, but also its surrounding areas,” Jones says.

    “We are extremely excited about our upcoming Customer Appreciation Day. Our clientele is vital to the success of our blossoming business. They appreciate the high end services that we provide and we in turn appreciate them returning for a few hours each week, as they get dolled up and pampered.”

    It’s awesome that Kim has invested in something can be profitable and maybe even a “fall-back” career if she ever decides to give up on that rap comeback.

    Would you let Lil Kim do YOUR hair?

    Janet (‘Miss Jackson’ if you’re nasty) has been getting her SUPERMODEL swag on as the legendary face of fur and she’s still going!

    Jackson shot the Harper’s Bazaar cover and feature story while visiting the Middle East on her current “Number Ones: Up, Close, & Personal” tour and like a fine wine, it’s clear she has aged with beauty and grace.

    At 45, Janet looks better than ever and her face reflects an inner beauty and peace .

    The article in the mag references her multi-million seller “Rhythm Nation” album and pays tribute to the iconic star, who has sold over 120 million records and influenced a whole new generation of artists.

        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?
