Porsha Williams Talks Phaedra & Kenya Coming Back To RHOA

Everybody in Atlanta is talking about who should be holding a peach next season, and Porsha Williams is not ducking the questions. FreddyO caught up with the Real Housewives of Atlanta star, and she gave her honest take on the talk that Phaedra Parks and Kenya Moore could both find their way back to the show.

Porsha knows both ladies well. She and Phaedra were once thick as thieves — the “Frick and Frack” era is still a favorite with longtime viewers — before their friendship fell apart in one of the ugliest Housewives storylines ever. Kenya, meanwhile, has been Porsha’s on-again, off-again rival since the two joined the cast back in season five, and their shade exchanges are the stuff of reunion legend.

A lot has changed since then. Phaedra has been off the show for two seasons now, raising her boys and focusing on her businesses and her new love life. Kenya left after season ten, married Marc Daly and welcomed baby Brooklyn, and fans have been calling for her return ever since. With season eleven wrapping up, the casting conversation for next season is getting louder by the week, especially with Porsha celebrating her engagement to Dennis McKinley and her baby girl on the way.

So what does Porsha think about sharing the screen with them again? Press play and hear it in her own words. One thing is for sure — if either lady picks a peach back up, Atlanta television will never be boring, and FreddyO will be right here for every minute of it.

March 18, 2019

Kandi Burruss did NOT come to play! The Real Housewives of Atlanta star shut it down with her Dungeon party, and let’s just say this was not your average Atlanta house party. Leather, lace, red lights and a room full of people ready to turn up — FreddyO was inside to catch the whole grown and sexy affair.

If you watch RHOA, you already know Kandi has been talking about her dungeon for a minute. It became one of the most talked-about topics on the show, and instead of running from the chatter, Kandi did what Kandi does — she turned it into a business and a party. Bedroom Kandi stays booming, and this night was the brand come to life, with the dungeon theme in full effect from the outfits to the entertainment.

Her friends and castmates showed up and showed out for the occasion, and of course Todd was right by his wife’s side. Say what you want about these two, but together they know how to throw an event the whole city will be talking about for weeks. In Atlanta, a Kandi party is never just a party — and the Dungeon might be her most unforgettable one yet.

Whew — Atlanta is still recovering! Press play and step inside the Dungeon, then check out more FreddyO party exclusives in the videos above, including Shamea’s gender reveal party and the superhero bash Kandi and Todd threw for Ace’s third birthday.

Love was all the way in the air! Xscape’s Tamika Scott renewed her wedding vows with her husband Darnell in a beautiful celebration of Black love, and FreddyO was there for the moment everybody is talking about: Tamika picked up the mic and sang at her own vow renewal! Surrounded by family, friends and her Xscape sisters, this was not just a ceremony, it was a whole love story set to music.

Tamika and Darnell have been holding each other down for over two decades, a real Atlanta love story that started long before the fame, the tours and the reality TV cameras. Renewing their vows after twenty-five years of marriage is the kind of milestone most couples only dream about, and the Scotts did it in style, with Tamika glowing and Darnell right by her side like day one. When your wife is one of the greatest voices in R&B, of course the reception turns into a concert.

And what a time for a celebration. Since Xscape shocked the world by reuniting at the 2017 BET Awards, the ladies have been on an incredible run, from their Bravo special Still Kickin’ It to selling out The Great Xscape Tour across the country. Through it all, family has stayed at the center, and this vow renewal showed exactly why. Check the gallery for Tamika’s daughter Young Niyah making her first performance, and Tamika’s sister LaTocha showing off those epic vocal skills.

March 17, 2019

Now this is how Atlanta throws a baby shower! Ming Lee and Fly celebrated their little one on the way with a beautiful shower surrounded by family and friends, and FreddyO was there to catch it all. From the decorations to the smiles in every corner of the room, the whole day was about love, blessings and welcoming a baby who is already spoiled in the best way.

Everybody in Atlanta knows Ming Lee. The Snob Life boss built her name from behind the salon chair into one of the city’s most talked-about beauty brands, turning great hair into a full-blown business empire and inspiring a whole generation of young women hustling to do the same. So of course her baby shower had to match that energy: stylish, joyful and full of the people who have been riding with her from the beginning.

Fly stayed right by her side as the couple opened gifts, posed for photos and soaked up advice and well wishes from everybody in the building. Between the laughs, the hugs and more than a few happy tears, you could feel how loved this baby already is. Atlanta showers a baby the right way, with good food, good music and a village ready to help raise the little one.

Salute to Ming Lee and Fly on their growing family, and congratulations from all of us at FreddyO.com. Press play and enjoy the celebration, and drop your well wishes for the new parents in the comments!

King Harris New Song First Performance ‘Drip’

freddyo12

March 11, 2019

Like father, like son! King Harris is stepping out from under the shadow of his famous parents and straight onto the stage, performing his brand new song “Drip” live for the very first time — and FreddyO was right there to catch the moment. The son of Atlanta royalty T.I. and Tiny Harris is making it clear that the talent in the Harris household is most definitely hereditary, and he is ready for his own spotlight.

We have watched King grow up right before our eyes, first as the funny, quick-witted kid cutting up on T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle, and now on Friends & Family Hustle, where the whole Harris crew lets the cameras into their lives. But this is a different King. With a microphone in his hand and a live crowd in front of him, the teenager traded the reality TV jokes for real stage presence, bouncing through “Drip” with the kind of confidence that usually takes artists years to build.

Music is truly a family business in the Harris home. Tip is one of the greatest rappers Atlanta has ever produced, Tiny wrote hits and sang with the legendary Xscape, big brother Domani is carving out his own lane as an MC, and even baby sister Heiress is already stealing scenes every time she performs. King is the next one up, and if this first performance is anything to go by, he inherited the best of both of his parents — his father’s swagger and his mother’s ear for a record the people can move to.

Heiress Harris Performs at Mr. Santa Christmas Extravaganza

Atlanta has a long history of turning hometown talent into superstars, and the city always shows up for its own. King Harris has the name, the family legacy and, most importantly, the drive to do the work. This first performance of “Drip” feels like the start of something, so remember where you saw it first. Go ahead, King — do your thing!

Tiny and Toya Twerk Off

March 10, 2019

Sometimes family heals by laughing together, and that is exactly the spirit of this beautiful moment. The Harris family and their loved ones gathered to celebrate the life of Precious Harris — T.I. and Tiny’s beloved sister, an auntie, a friend, and truly the heartbeat of so many people — and in the middle of all that love, Tiny Harris and Toya Wright decided to lighten heavy hearts the best way Atlanta knows how: with music, laughter, and a friendly little twerk off.

Watch these two and try not to smile. Tiny and Toya have been sisters in this industry for years, and their chemistry is effortless — hyping each other up, cracking up mid-dance, and giving everybody in the room permission to exhale and enjoy the moment. It was not about showing out; it was about joy as a tribute. Anybody who knew Precious knows she loved a good time and loved seeing her people happy, and this felt like exactly the kind of energy she would have wanted in the room.

That is what real Atlanta family looks like. When one hurts, everybody circles up — with prayer, with presence, and yes, with a little dancing through the tears. FreddyO was honored to be there to capture it, because these are the moments that remind us celebrity is not the story here. Family is the story. Love is the story.

Press play above and share a smile with us as we continue to keep the Harris family lifted in love and prayer. Rest peacefully, Precious — your light is still all over your family. Check out more FreddyO exclusives below.
