  • Is This The Mother of Shaq’s ATL Love Child?

    Feb, 25 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Lawd knows I tried to hold my tounge on this one…but word on the street is that Shaquille O’neal may have left a little legacy in the “A”.? Alexis Miller (aka Mary Jane) the chick who filed a restraining order against the bball star for stalking, withdrew it and then re-appeared on the scene sporting a “Shaq Tatt” has a two-year old son that some are saying clearly resembles my boo!

    The 24 year old inspiring rapper has even bragged about having a son by Shaq to fellow ATLiens. You know I had to digg into my archives to check out what I’d written about this chick…but my keen spidey senses tingled and I detected her level of b*llshit a long time ago when I heard her speak about their relationship with Shaq on an internet podcast.

    She stated that she ended the relationship around July 2008 to *cough* focus on her rap career and that they had dated for a year and a half. She also revealed that she has a 2 year old son whom she says has nothing to do with O?neal. *sigh* {Side Note:} Sometimes I?m not too swift, but those numbers aren?t adding up. Alexis had to have been at least 6 months preggers when they met. 😆

    I don’t know about this one. I already thought she had been paid to drop the charges and that possibly a gag order was in place….but a BABY!? Say it ain’t so?!?!!

    Feb, 16 2009 | Written by ATLien

    I got a late start this morning cause I tried to hang out last night.? First stop was at a house party to watch the NBA All-Star game and the next stop was a Warner Brother’s event for an up and coming artist (which I’ll post video as soon as I’m cognizant!).? But in the meantime, check out my booooo, Shaquille O’Neal, showcasing his dancing skills during the opening of the game! Hands down my favorite part! Well…that and his between the legs pass on Dwight Howard 😆

    Check out Tamia, Jordin Sparks and John Legend’s performances under the cut: Continue Reading…

    Quick Flix ~ Shaquille O’Neal in the “A” + Passes Hakeem Olajuwon on NBA Alltime Scoring List

    Jan, 30 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Flix via ATLpics


    While I was tailing T.I.’s “A”zzzz all over Atlanta Saturday night, my boo, Shaquille O’Neal was partying it up at Esso’s. I ain’t mad though cause I don’t normally do clubs…[insert side eye here] but when I saw the pics my heart did sort of drop at bit!? Anywhoo, regardless of all the Atlanta jumpoff nonesense, Shaq is still my all-time favorite so what-EV. Oh…and I almost forgot that my boo just exceed his long-time rival Hakeem ?The Dream? Olajuwon on the NBA?s All-time Scoring List to land solidly at number 7. Goooo Shaqie! By the way…Dominique’s at number 10.

    The Hoop Doctors broke it down a bit better than me, since I look at the men in the game and not the scores. They even brought up this old Taco Bell commercial that made fun of Shaq and Hakeem’s on court feuding:

    *sigh* I love heeeeeee!

    Shaq’s Jumpoff is Still Talking…

    Jan, 23 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Alexis Mller aka “MaryJane” aka Shaq’s Jumpoff is on a mission to tell her side of the story. Shaq’s chick on the side, who is seeking interviews with anyone and everyone, recently hit up an online podcast to discuss her torid affair with the b-baller. She also touched on the restraining order she had against him, and her so-called rap career. I spotted this while over at Stylerazzi who notes that Mr. O’neal shoulda-woulda-coulda included a gag order in their settlement agreement. Oh well, hind sight is always 20/20…and ole girl is still fighting for her last few minutes in the spotlight before Shaunie sics the goons on her. 😆

    Initially, I’d decided I was gonna give Alexis a chance. I know sometimes my love for Shaq gets in the way of me being impartial and plus she’s still a woman and her side should be heard…but what I determined from wasting 10 minutes of my life listening to the interview is that this chick is a mess and need therapy. She also seems to have aspirations of being another Superhead. When asked about her “Shaq” tatt, the tattoo she’s sporting that oddly resembles Shaq’s Superman tatt, Mary Jane stated Continue Reading…

    Tatted Up ~ Shaq’s Accuser Sports New “Shaq” Tatt

    Jan, 14 2009 | Written by ATLien

    Alexis Miller, aka Mary Jane, is working overtime to remain relevant since filing and dismissing stalking charges against Shaquille O’neal.? The jumpoff has apparently assembled a team to market her so-called rap career and recently sent pics out to several blogs displaying what appears to be a tatted replica of Shaq’s “Superman” tattoo.? The email I received stated:

    “WHOA! WORD ON THE STREET IS THAT SHAQ AND MARYJANE ARE BACK TOGETHER! SHE’S SHOWING OFF THEIR MATCHING TATTOOS ON HER MYSPACE PAGE PICS!!!!! PLEASE POST.”


    My spidey senses are tingling with this one. How the hell does she want ME (of all people) to believe that she and Shaq have kissed and made up just because her dumb “A”zzzz went and got tatted up! Like…for real though. My boo can’t possibly be that stupid… 😯 Girl bye!

    Atlanta Stalking Charges Withdrawn Against Shaquille O’Neal

    Nov, 13 2008 | Written by ATLien

    (PhotoSource)

    After several postponed hearings?and a whole lotta ‘wait and see’, the Atlanta woman who accused Shaquille O?Neal of stalking her and threatening her with bodily harm has officially withdrawn her request for a permanent restraining order against the NBA star.

    Documents filed late Wednesday afternoon in Fulton County Superior Court and obtained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution confirmed that Alexis Miller had withdrawn her request for a permanent restraining order against the Phoenix Suns? 7-foot-1, 325-pound center. It was unclear whether the two sides had agreed to any settlement that would close the case. (Source)

    Dayum! AJC is implying that Shaq wrote that heffa a check. Pardon me while I go throw up!!?

        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?
