    Dec, 12 2011 | Written by ATLien


    Word on the curb is that there’s a new reality show on the horizon.

    With the success of reality television series like ?Basketball Wives,? ?Love and Hip Hop,? and the ?Real Housewives? franchise, it appears VH1 may be adding another one to the list.

    According to several industry sources, ?Love and Hip Hop Atlanta? is next up on the reality show train and while details are a bit sketchy at the moment, there have been a few names tossed around for the project.

    Details below: Continue Reading…

    Lauren London Wants You To Know… [Is She or Isn’t She Knocked up By The Dream?]

    Nov, 29 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Apparently there’s a rumor circulating that actress Lauren London is knocked up because she recently took to the tweets to respond.

    According to Bossip, a fake Fox News Twitter account, @FoxBreakiing, started a rumor last Friday that London (aka Lil Wayne baby mama #3?) is expecting her second child.

    [READ: Meet Lauren London & Lil Wayne’s Son Camron… (EXCLUSIVE PHOTO)]

    But according to the rumor, this time Lil Wayne is NOT the father and therein lies the controversy.

    Lauren felt compelled to respond after being linked with non-other than Lil Wayne baby mama #2 – Nivea?s ex-husband/baby daddy #1 Terius “The-Dream” Nash. Continue Reading…

    Brandy Gets “BranNu” During Atlanta Black Gay Pride… [PHOTOS + VIDEO]

    Sep, 6 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Brandy and Derek J posed for a photo rocking similar attire last weekend.

    Bran who was spotted arriving in Atlanta all boo’d up just a few days ago, posed with Atlanta’s own Derek Jae (who has been dubbed the “ambassador of Black Gay Pride since he was EVERYWHERE) and they both were head to toe in “ALL GOLD EVERYTHING”!

    Brandy was in town last weekend (along with several other celebrities) to perform at Club Traxx and according to my boo DramaDupree:

    She might not have anything new out or playing on the radio stations at the moment (but several things are in the works) and that doesn?t mean the kids at Atlanta Black Gay Pride weren?t happy to see the singer when she took the to stage for Club Traxx.

    Nivea even came through to show support.

    [Sidebar: I hope Nivea either stayed sober or had a designated driver…]

    Mugshot Mania ~ Nivea’s DUI Pose…

    Jun, 21 2011 | Written by ATLien

    BEHOLD… the mugshot Nivea said didn’t exisit! (If looks could kill, we’d all be 6 feet under right now!)

    I broke the story about Nivea’s DUI early Sunday morning >>> (click HERE if you missed it) but TMZ broke the mugshot! (Although, Lord knows I searched for it. *sigh*)

    According to law enforcement sources … Nivea was on the road around 1:30 AM on Sunday when she plowed her ’06 Mercedes right into a tree that had fallen into the road during a recent storm.

    We’re told when cops arrived at the scene, Nivea had “bloodshot, glassy eyes and smelled like alcohol.” Nivea told police she only had 3 drinks earlier in the evening … and didn’t see the bright yellow crime tape and the traffic cones directing cars away from the downed tree.

    Nivea was eventually arrested on suspicion of drunk driving and reckless driving. We’re told the child in the car was not injured and was released to Nivea’s boyfriend.

    I guess there’s no need for me to worry about that slander case huh?

    Nivea Wants You To Know… [Her Response to DUI Arrest]

    Jun, 20 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Early yesterday morning I got an email from an anonymous source telling me that Nivea was in custody after having lost control of her car as she was driving home from Antonia “Toya” Carter’s wedding reception.

    [READ: PHOTOS: Antonia “Toya” Carter & Memphitz Tie the Knot + Nivea Arrested for DUI]

    Word on the curb is Nivea and Lauryn London left the reception DRUNK and she dropped Lauren London off and picked up her son…? (NO she did not take her son to the wedding).

    Nivea was on her way to presumably drop her son off so that she could go hang out and drink some more when she lost control of her vehicle and ran into a tree (an inanimate object). She called police and they carted her off to jail after assessing the scene.

    Nivea had to sit in jail overnight until someone (anyone) posted a CASH bond which wasn’t more than $3,000.

    Honestly, I think no one wanted to bond her out because everyone was so pissed at her poor judgement… but anyway, she’s out now and immediately hit Twitter to respond….

    Nivea goes on to explain… Continue Reading…

    The two lovebirds married in a private ceremony yesterday in Atlanta, Georgia and Lil Wayne’s ex is now officially Mrs. Wright!? Wayne didn’t attend the wedding but he congratulated Toya online via twitter:

    The wedding was being filmed for an upcoming episode for Toya’s BET reality show, so photos of Toya in her dress are on lockdown, but she did allow Kandi to snap a few photos of everyone as she was dressed? in her reception dress.

    Rasheeda, Kandi, Toya, Nivea, Lauren and Tamar Braxton

    Singer Kelly Price sang as Toya walked down the aisle.? There was no drama at the wedding, everything was beautiful and it went off without a hitch.

    Congrats to Memph & Toya! They deserve all the love and happiness in the world….

    Now for the real scoop….

    Can you guess which one of Lil Wayne’s baby mama’s was arrested last night after leaving the reception drunk as a skunk? 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?
