I never really understood why blogger make up false stories about people and lie to get page views. The AJC just got on the phone with Kandi and she categorically denied the story. “It was a shock to me,” she said. Low Life Rose(I added that), never bothered to contact Kandi before posting the story.. But we all know SR does nothing but lie.

“Our store is doing very very well,” she said. She acknowledged that January was slow but that’s a traditionally quiet month for clothing retail anyway. She said November and December were very strong and the boutique just added online shopping as well at www.tagsatl.com. Click Here To See Pics Read the rest of this entry »

Yesterday I was told that the folks over at Bravo are now looking to bring in a character for the Atlanta housewives, who doesn’t mind getting a little gritty. Ever since Nene decided to not give them ghetto, they have been on the prowl for a new housewife to add more drama to the cast.

I was also told that one of the wives will not be returning. Hummm I really don’t know about that? — I love them all, and don’t want anyone of them to go. I was told the person but cant say just yet…  

Here are some pics from last seasons premiere party …

My Homie Miss Info Posted a story about how she really wasn’t feeling the song that bigg made about Xscape. Wow, what a great story. Kandi talks about that line in Biggie’s “Dreams of F–king an R&B B—h” when he said  “I’d rather f–k Rupaul than those ugly-ass Xscape b—hes.”

At the time, the line upset her, but then

 “the night that he passed, we were out at the party in LA…And he was apologizing to [Tiny] for what he said about us. So she came back to me and she said, ‘oh Kandi, he just saying he’s sorry and he didn’t mean it. And I was like, ‘man, please, f–k him!’ And I just feel so horrible!…that’s why you should never really hold grudges, I guess”

Thanks to Jerry Barrow/UrbanDaily for sending this over.

And as you already know….Kandi=favorite Real Housewife ever.

Kandihas to be one of the strongest people I know, she wanted everyone to know that she is OK… This is what she wanted everyone to know… 

“I love yall seriously. I have 2 go thru my don’t tweet, don’t answer the phone phase cause that’s just how I deal with stuff. but I’m ok. The last couple days have been rough but it will get easier. Thanks again for the love.” Oct 4th was my brother’s b-day. He passed when I was n high school. Being able 2 get thru that lets me know I can get thru anything.”

The police have made an arrest – a club employee named Fredrick Richardson. He has been charged with voluntary manslaughter, I was told that the fight took place over a women who also works at the club… I was also told AJ’s cause of death was from a massive head trauma, after being hit in the head with a glass bottle as he walked away from the fight… I really don’t understand why people don’t just let things go, they took a good man’s life for no reason… 

What a lot of people don’t know is that Kandi put out a solo albums almost 8 years ago…  This is a song she wrote that I love featuring her and Faith Evens, called “Easier” which was on her 1st solo album  …

Kandi’s new album B.L.O.G.(Bitches Love Online Gossip) is her second studio album. It will be released on November 10, 2009, although its release is likely to be delayed because of everything going on until 2010. Here are pictures of Kandi singing her heart out at CAU’s homecoming the day before AJ’s death.

Last night the Atlanta Housewives let us have all the Drama and some… My homie Derek Blanks did a Alter Ego shoot for them… Here are all the pic’s from last night…

Episode 6 The Rundown

RHOA ‘Alter Ego photo shoot’ opens with the show’s breakout star Nene entering a salon where she meets Sheree and Kandi for a little pamper me/chat time. Minx nails is the service of choice for all three ladies. Sheree is quick to let us know she was one of the first to wear Minx nails in Atlanta after hearing that both Beyonce and Rihanna are Minx nail fans. (Click link above to learn more about Minx nails.)

When Kandi arrives, Nene asks Kandi (playing around) if she will be grooming her “coochie hair”. A little TMI when Sheree reveals that she is completely hairless below or as Nene poignantly puts it “she’s bald-headed”.

Nene informs the girls about the alter ego photo shoot she set up with celebrity photographer, Derek Blanks and how it is the hottest thing now.  Nene’s OC: “Derek Blanks did alter ego photo shoots for Diddy, Jennifer Hudson, Pharrell, and Ciara”. Both ladies look happy to hear about the shoot. But then, Nene adds that she will be both director and stylist for the shoot. Now, the once looks of happiness have turned to worried glances. However, this is a great idea that Nene has i.e. to have the girls become their rumored personalities.

Nene reveals she will be both a stripper and the guy watching the stripper.

Nene tells Sheree that she wants Sheree breaking into an ATM for 7 figures while dressed in a prison costume. Clearly a reference to Sheree Whitfield’s divorce settlement from ex-husband ex-NFL player Bob Whitfield. Sheree’s face is less than enthused and a bit skeptical. Sheree’s OC moment: “I don’t feel like I robbed the bank. If I did, sh&$ where is the money.”  Sheree only accepts NeNe’s idea after learning that can be a sexy robber. Details on Sheree’s divorce settlement from Bob Whitfield here.

Nene tells Kandi she was going to make Kandi both the bride and groom (being that Kandi is engaged) but then on second thought, Nene realized that having Kandi be “hood” makes more sense. No matter what a person says, you have to hand it to Nene because whether Nene says it as an OC moment or with the other girls, Nene will definitely voice her opinion to the person’s face. After Kandi laughs the hood remark off, Nene actually tells Kandi “You are ghetto”.  But what is funnier here is how Kandi actually comes across in her OC moment with ”Nene, had the nerve to say I was ghetto. If you ask me, she’s ghettoist oneofus all” [sic]. (Kandi slurred the one of us all together so much that it sounded like one word so it is written that way on purpose.) In reference to Nene, Kandi goes on to say ”If I’m ghetto, she [sic] ghetto”. Kandi laughs Nene’s comments off with her own comment about Nene bringing ghetto wherever Nene goes.  Quickly, Nene lets everyone know she would definitely tell you if she was from the hood, but she’s from Athens (Georgia). She goes on to say that Athens is definitely not the projects.

Next, Kim becomes the topic of conversation. Kandi tells the girls she will be producing Kim’s “Tardy for the Party”. Kandi suggests to Nene that they go out to her car and listen to the song again. Nene and Kandi sit in Kandi’s car while they discuss what they will do with Kim’s possible breakout hit. Remember Kim told Kandi that she wanted both she and Nene as artists on “Tardy for the Party”. Kandi finds out that neither Nene nor Kim have recording experience. Kandi looks scared to have her name attached to an amateur project while Nene looks confident she can pull it off. Nene’s OC moment: ”I’m not telling the world I’m a singer, what I’m telling the world is that I can sing better than Kim”. Kim’s final recording of “Tardy for the Party” heard on Ryan Seacrest below.

Showing off their football gaming skills was first on the agenda for Atlanta celebs at the launch of Xbox 360 Madden NFL 10. This event, hosted by Konsole Kingz, was star-studded, featuring guests such as, Big Boi, Kandi Burrus from Real Housewives of Atlanta, Jermaine Dupri, Rich Girl, Drumma Boy, D. Woods and plenty more. The party was successfully put together by Garner Circle PR and I was very well entertained by the competitive, yet social atmosphere. View more pictures of your favorite artists getting serious trying out the new Madden NFL 10.
