  • Mugshot Mania ~ Football Floosies

    Feb, 6 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Tampa, Florida was invaded by an influx of *cough* business women during Superbowl XLIII so local cops did a sweep of area hotels, street corners, private residences, and massage parlors. As is customary in the days before football’s championship game, police locked up tons of women on prostitution charges, lest they supposedly cash in on the influx of out-of-town pigskin fans.

    Suspects ranged in ages from 19 to 53 and were booked in the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.? Check out a “few” mugshots from the bust below: Continue Reading…

    Mistaken Identity? ~ Another ‘Porsche Foxx’ Questioned in Arson Case

    Feb, 5 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Poor Poor Porsche Foxx! Someone is roaming around the “A” using her moniker and it appears she’s been caught up in a case of mistaken identity. According to WSB-TV, the officails have tracked down the two people involved. One being Tony Matthews and and the other being Tony’s girlfriend *cough* Porsche Foxx. Apparently it wasn’t THAT Porsche Foxx (aka Stephanie Calhoun) the police were looking for, although the neighbors are still adamant that it is:

    Several neighbors told WSB-TV Channel 2 that Foxx, whose real name is Stephanie Calhoun, was outside the house where the fire started and was arguing with a man. Foxx disputed those claims.

    Fulton County Fire Marshal Keith Padgett told WSB-TV Channel 2 that he hasn?t seen any evidence to prove that Foxx was at the scene.Some neighbors said they saw the former V-103 radio personality at the house arguing with Tony Matthews, whose mother, Mary, owns the damaged home and was injured in the blaze.?I had nothing, absolutely, positively, to do with any fire and I don’t know anyone involved,? said Foxx.

    Padgett told WSB-TV Channel 2 that he talked to witnesses and Foxx, and so far he has no evidence that she was at the fire or linked to it so Foxx is no longer a person of interest.Padgett also said he talked to Matthews and Matthews said he doesn’t know Foxx and said he was arguing with his mother, and that is what neighbors may have heard. But neighbors are standing by their claims. (Source)

    I’m still confused…but I’m glad Porsche Foxx/Stephanie Calhoun is off the hook for this one.

    Mugshot Mania ~ Female Rapist (Is This Possible?)

    Jan, 30 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Meet Janice McCarl. The Colorado woman, 53, was arrested last night for allegedly sexually assaulting a male friend late last year. McCarl, seen below in a Longmont Police Department mug shot, was booked into jail on a felony charge of suspicion of sexual assault. According to a police report, a copy of which you’ll find here, the victim, 50, told investigators that he invited McCarl to a barbecue at his home last November. Following the barbecue, the man contends that he passed out and awoke to find McCarl molesting him. The man, who believes that he was somehow drugged by McCarl, told police that she “had her hands…in his ass.” The man said that when he later confronted McCarl, she laughed and asked, “What did I do, kill somebody.” He added that McCarl eventually acknowledged the molestation and apologized.

    The victim told police that, prior to the attack, he had been “intimate” with McCarl “approximately 5-6 times since July 2008.” McCarl is scheduled to appear this afternoon in Boulder County District Court. (Source)

    Is it really possible for a female to rape a male? I mean…aren’t there some things that have to happen in order for the sex act to be successful?? I recall where DMX accused a chick who was seeking paternity of raping him but he was probably on them beans. In either case, the male had to be somewhat willing. I guess 😕

    Mugshot Mania ~ The Sleep Deprivation Edition

    Jan, 29 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Spotted @ Crunk&Disorderly

    A Monroe woman, who said she was angry because her boyfriend wouldn?t let her sleep, shot him with a small-caliber handgun, according to an arrest affidavit.

    Charged with aggravated battery was Roshonda Anding, 21, of 3002 Burg Jones Lane. She remained in Ouachita Correctional Center on Saturday afternoon with no bond set.

    The arrest affidavit said Ouachita deputies found the victim in his car at the intersection of Beverly Street and Morton early Saturday. The victim had been shot once in the hip, and was taken to LSU Medical Center.

    Deputies said they encountered the suspect walking in the vicinity of the shooting scene. The affidavit said Anding led authorities to the handgun, which she had thrown into a culvert.

    ?Anding was cooperative,? the affidavit said, and ?only stated that she shot (the victim) because he was bothering her and wouldn?t let her sleep.? (Source)

    …and the moral of this story is: I need some dayum sleep before I kill somebody. 😯

    F.A.B.O.L.O.U.S. Credit Cards D.E.C.L.I.N.E.D.

    Jan, 28 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Photo via ATLpics

    Saturday evening after Amar’e Studemire’s dinner at Justins, I decided to club hop with my girl Rovella from TheAlmostFamous Showcase.? We hit up Eros and just a few moments later Shawty Lo came in followed by Fabolous and his crew.? I was chillin in the background as I always do and I wasn’t planning on writing about the event at all since they were tripping at the door. So as I did what I do, I noticed that Fabo had the V.I.P. on lock. He and his boys were doing the standard star thang. Popping bottles and flossing. And I didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. I soon left cause my shoes said it was time to go, but a few days later The New York Post got the scoop that Fabolous couldn’t pay his tab that night:

    FABOLOUS went from “Nothin’ to Somethin’ ” on his last album, but at an Atlanta restaurant, his credit is back to nothing. The rapper showed up at the hot Eros World Tapas Bar on Saturday with an entourage of more than 20, a source said. They requested “the usual excess of champagne and alcohol, so the manager asked for a credit card to start a tab.”

    Unfortunately, Fabolous’ credit cards were all declined. “By the fifth credit card, the entourage member designated to take care of his tab goes outside,” our source said, “only to start a fight with the outside bouncer. He tripped and fell, hitting his head on the concrete and started bleeding. The manager called an ambulance. But as soon as the entourage member also saw the police, he began running away, blood oozing down his face.” Fabolous and his posse stayed and ordered champagne but paid cash. Reps for the restaurant and the rapper declined to comment.

    Dayum those Carlos Santana’s! I even saw ol boy falling down outside and acting a fool. I coulda got mad footage that night!

    Sidebar: I bet Shawty Lo’s tab was paid… BANK-HEAD!! 😆

    Mugshot Mania ~ Facebook + Status Change = MURDER!

    Jan, 28 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Meet Edward Richardson, 41, of Staffordshire England. Richardson was just convicted of murdering his wife last year after she changed her FACEBOOK marital status to single:

    “Richardson became enraged when Sarah changed her marital status on Facebook to single and decided to go and see her as she was not responding to his messages. He gained entry by breaking the front door window and made his way into the property.

    Once inside he found Sarah in her bedroom and subjected her to a frenzied and brutal attack with a knife and then attempted to take his own life. (Source)

    This fruitcake has since been sentenced to life with a minimum of 17 years in prison but that still doesn’t make up for the fact that this was a totally senseless crime. I’m still amazed at the amount of people who actually PAY ATTENTION to peoples relationship statuses on Facebook.? Hell…mine used to change with my mood too until I just decided to leave it at “complicated”… Life is crazy and the internet is the DEVIL. 😯

        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?
