  • In Case You Missed It ~ Michael Vick on 60 Minutes

    Aug, 17 2009 | Written by ATLien

    vick - 60 minutes

    For the first time since serving his prison sentence for taking part in a dog fighting operation, former Falcon’s quarterback Michael Vick sits down in an on screen interview. He’s finally free to talk about his experiences now that he’s been picked up by a team. Friday, during a press conference, Vick announced that he signed a two year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. Hopefully, the man can finally move forward and live his life. Vick has served his time, paid his dues but some people still can’t let go of the animosity.

    In an in-depth one on one interview with 60 minute’s James Brown, Vick explains what he did, why he did it and how he says he’s changed.

    When I was in prision I was disgusted because of what I let happen to those animals. I could have put a stop it. I could have walked away from it. I could have shut the entire operation down. But I didn’t…

    When asked how he felt about losing his huge contract. Vick humbly admitted that he deserved it:

    Football don’t even matter. Losing a $135 million dollar contract doesn’t matter. It don’t matter. I deserved to lose that because of what I was doing…

    In case you missed it: NeNe Leakes On The Wendy Williams Show

    Jul, 16 2009 | Written by ATLien

    NeNe & Wendy


    Spotted @ Wendyista

    NeNe Leakes of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Atlanta hit up The Wendy Williams Show recently and spilled the beans about her true relationship with her fellow “housewives”. As the two mixed up some kinda alcoholic concoction Wendy asked NeNe to let it all out. Specifically about how she felt about Kim Zolciak and rumors of her split with her husband Greg:

    On Kim:
    “People thought that we were best friends. We weren’t. We were associates. We talked from time to time. We weren’t best friends although I love her kids… Listen, I’m not friends with any of those girls on the ‘Housewives’ show, OK? We have a business relationship. That’s where it starts and that’s where it ends.

    Wendy: And the business is Bravo?
    “The business is Bravo,” NeNe replied.

    On Kandi Burruss, the newest person to join the cast:
    Wendy: She’s got money.
    “Oh, really? I’m just saying, oh, really. I don’t know her like that,” NeNe said.

    You been to her house?
    “No, I’ve never been to her home.”

    Is she fabulous?
    “She aiight,” NeNe said with a shrug of the shoulders.

    On Xscape, the R&B group Kandi was a member of:
    “I don’t know who they are.”

    Of course you already know NeNe has a disdain for bloggers and has even told me to my face, but she addressed (again) how she feels about us internet hustlers and took a little time to openly admit she’s not really friend’s with any of her castmastes:

    “Listen, it’s not that I don’t like the girls,” NeNe added. “I like the girls. I talk to Lisa the most and um, Sheree and I, in the first episode, you see us try and mend our relationship. But what I’m saying is I think people get confused about what friendship is. Friends don’t do what we do – talk bad about each other, be very negative toward each other… We’re associates. We hang out from time to time. If I was really in a situation I wouldn’t call them up. I have good friends and i have a new sister – you.”

    Atlanta “Housewives” Take Over Atlanta Radio

    Jul, 10 2009 | Written by ATLien

    DSC_0187Photos via FreddyO

    For whatever reason, Kim Zolciak and Kandi Burress have gravitated towards each other. The newbie and the jump-off have been spotted chillin around town while the other Atlanta “Housewives” bond together elsewhere. I’m not really trippin on their lil friendship, but I just find it odd how obvious they are in their disdain for the other 3.? Anywhoo….check out a few flix from their most recent lovefest on Atlanta radio station V-103.

    v-103

    From the looks of things…Wanda’s obviously not believin the hype either.

    DSC_0221

    Not really sure what these two were talking about on the show, but NeNe wasn’t feelin it at all.? She even sent a text telling Kim to back up or get beat down….(not exactly in those words but close).

    I think Miss Sophia deserves “Diva of the Day” today in honor of that lacefront…

    Check out more photos from Kandi & Kim’s radio station visit over at FreddyO’s spot.

    Diva of the Day ~ Lawrence Washington

    Jul, 8 2009 | Written by ATLien

    main-16

    Looky who I spotted prancing around the club last night…none other than Lawrence Washington….one of the hot gay BFF’s from Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Lawrence was giving all the girls heat last night as he catwalked through the spot rockin his “100% Organic Girl” baby tee with some skinny jeans and 4 inch heels. I LOVE IT! He was doin the most last night so I’ve personally given up my title and named Lawrence ‘Diva of the Day’ today….

    Lawrence

    You betta work it b*tch!

    Don’t get it twisted, Lawrence is not just a fashion icon…he can also rock the hell out of a curling iron. Lawrence has plans for opening his own salon in August but until then you can find him at Bellogique Salon & Spa in Atlanta.

        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?
