    While you may think this is what she wants, Mary Jane is smart enough to realize that she can’t marry a marry man! Andre’s plea for Mary Jane’s love goes up in flames as she rejects him and his ring, stating, ?All you ever do is make me cry!?

    Dekalb County Police to be Featured on A&E’s “The First 48”

    Jan, 25 2011 | Written by ATLien

    The show that gave Memphis, Tennesee the title of “murder capital” is coming to Atlanta.

    Dekalb County Police has signed a contract with producers of the popular A&E docu-drama “The First 48,” and production crews began shooting just last week.

    The metro Atlanta county is divided over how the exposure will affect Dekalb County murder investigations. Some officers believe the national exposure from the documentary television series will help with recruiting, while others are concerned it could actually help criminals instead. Continue Reading…

    Boo?d Up ~ Shaquille O?Neal & Hoopz Hit the Late Show + Keri Hilson?s ?Pretty Girl Rock? Performance [VIDEO]

    Jan, 5 2011 | Written by ATLien

    Shaquille O’Neal and his boo/fiance’ Nicole “Hoopz” Alexander were spotted strutting hand in hand as Shaq arrived to the ‘Late Show’ studios.

    I personally like Shaq and Hoopz together (they looked like they had so much fun in that classic Halloween video) but I swear it looks like he’s walking his daughter to school!

    Shaq appeared as a guest on the show for what was apparently his first time in a decade.

    “It hasn’t been ten years,” David Letterman said. “Has it been ten years?”

    When asked why it’s been so long, O’Neal responded, “‘Cause you haven’t called me, Dave.” This impromptu response set O’Neal up for the rest of the interview.

    Why didn’t LeBron James stay in Cleveland a little longer? “He didn’t call me either, so I don’t know what went on.”

    Did Kobe Bryant get you run out of LA? “I don’t know. He didn’t call me.”

    Would Charles Barkley pick you up from the airport? “He never called me, so I don’t know.”

    Hilarious! Shaq’s a really funny dude.

    Shaq’s interview was followed by a performance by Keri Hilson.

    Check out video of Shaq’s hilarious “Late Show” interview PLUS Keri Hilson’s “Late Show” performance of “Pretty Girl Rock” below: 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?

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?
