Yep, it's a wrap Kandi ain't too bright. She said herself that her mother thinks she's a smart girl but ain't got NO common sense and after reading this Essence interview I'm all the way down with mama. This chile need to ditch that zero cuz word on the streets is that he's a former drug dealer using fake pay stubs to avoid child support.

Real Housewives of Atlanta' Season Two Premiere: Kandi Burruss

Love 'em or hate 'em, folks can't stop gabbing about the cast of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." For some the show has become an addiction and others just another abhorrent melodrama that marks the impending death of quality TV. But for Kandi Burruss, the newest ATL housewife, it's simply surreal. Before joining the infamous Georgia Peaches, the former Xscape member was a bonafide couch potato and die-hard "RHOA" fan, making sure to TIVO every episode of Bravo's southern installment. Now the Grammy-winning singer and songwriter stands on the frontlines with the cast waiting to live excerpts of her life in front of millions. ESSENCE.com caught up with the single mom to talk about her sudden engagement, her fiancé's critics and her beef with NeNe Leakes.

ESSENCE.COM: Welcome to the show. How's it been going?
KANDI BURRUSS: it's been fun for the most part. But, to be honest, when it was first announced that I would be a part of the show the blogs really dogged my fiancé. At first I was upset that they were saying he has all these kids and he cheats and that the lovin' must be so good that it makes me want to stay. It was just crazy, but it has made for some good song material.

ESSENCE.COM: It's tough living under a microscope, but we've read that your mom has been equally critical of your relationship with Ashley "AJ" Jewel. How have you and your mom been getting along?
BURRUSS: It's gotten worse and we deal with some of our issues on camera. Our engagement is fairly new. We met last July and got engaged in January. It's been hurtful to him because he has kids old enough to read this, and really I expected that people would have things to say about me, not my fiancé. When he read what they were saying he was like, I wish you weren't doing the show, but it was too late because we'd already signed the contracts. So we're going to ride it out.

ESSENCE.COM: Unfortunately, living in the spotlight of dramality TV, this level of public scrutiny is to be expected. Why have so many people accused him of not being employed?
BURRUSS: People were accusing him of being a street pharmacist, but AJ has his own music production company and he also does other things outside of music. I recognize some people don't like dating people with children but I'm a single mom of a 6-year-old, and now I also have AJ's twin 12-year-old daughters living with us, and we're all adjusting as a blended family. My daughter enjoys them and I enjoy being able to experience the [tween] years.

ESSENCE.COM: Well, there's talk that you and NeNe have beef. Is that true?
BURRUSS: It started off cool, and as taping went on me and NeNe, well, I'll just say things got stressful. We have words and we a'ight now. We at least tolerate each other. It's kind of funny because I was a big fan of hers, but it's one thing to think when you watch people on television and they seem larger than life and you think it's cute and funny, but when you meet that person in real life and that same attitude is directed at you it ain't so funny no more.

ESSENCE.COM: Does this mean we can expect catfights?
BURRUSS: I'm not a person who's going to back down and will tell you in a second that you can't talk to me any old kind of way. So I'll just say there will be a lot of big disagreements and a lot of drama on the show.

WHY do people keep getting engaged and married so ghat damn quickly!!! What's the rush? That is not enough time to get to know a person's ins and outs and decide if you want to deal with their deep issues (and everybody has them). For God's sake my boyfriend and I have been together longer than the two of them before they got engaged and we JUST had our first fight yesterday! dumbasses.

So, Kandi recently explained that he didn't tell her how many kids he had until later and that she doesn't really know what kind of father dude is. Is she not speaking to the mamas???? We need to start taking bets on whether this actually makes it to the altar.

YBF EXCLUSIVE: Kandi Burruss Dishes On Her Mom’s Beef With Her Fiance

TheYBF.com spoke with the newest “ATL Housewife” Kandi Burruss about the upcoming season. And you already know we had to ask about her alleged deadbeat daddy fiance Ashley Jewell. We broke the exclusive right here back in March that her fiance had 6 kids and was well known around the ATL to not handle his daddy business. So we asked Ms. Kandi about it and the rumor that her own mother is extra upset about the engagement. And she kept it all the way real with us:

Yes it’s true. My fiancé does have 6 children. And that in itself is a big problem with my mother. I didn’t know going into the relationship exactly how many kids he had. Or his situation with them. So there was some deceit. She’s not happy at all. They fought hard before taping the show and during the show. Then after the show stopped taping she went in even harder. It’s a constant battle.

We also asked Kandi why people are calling her current fiancé a dead beat dad. She tells us:

That I don’t know. Since we’ve been in a relationship, his kids come over A LOT. His twin daughters even live with us now. But before we were together, I can’t say how he was as a dad since I don’t know. But as for now, he’s great with his kids.

I wonder if these two will actually make it to the alter. But from the looks of it, moms aint having it. Stay tuned for our full interview with Kandi and Lisa Wu-Hartwell posting today….

Lawd, Nene finna catch a case for chokin' Kim.

http://bossip.com/137645/...ore-137645

Now we told you that b*tch Nene is crazy. A police report has surfaced of Nene choking the sh*t out of Kim in Atlanta while filming an episode of the show.

ET breaks news that “Real Housewives of Atlanta” castmember Kim Zolciak has filed a police report against NeNe Leakes.
NeNe allegedly strangled Kimberly during a heated exchange.

The incident report obtained by ET states that Kim was going to shoot a scene for “Real Housewives of Atlanta” and got into an argument with NeNe. While they were fighting, NeNe started to point her fingers in Kim’s face. The report claims that when witnesses tried to break them up, NeNe “grabbed [Kim] by the neck and tried to choke her out.”

Kim then drove to the police station to file a report. Both witnesses collaborated her story. She has been advised to get a warrant for NeNe and take pictures of any bruises.

The report notes that the officer was “unable to locate the suspect at this time.”

We rest our case. Nene likes to keep it so real, that it can get her a** in trouble… SMH

i think she must be very lonely and this dude just came along talking all that sweet nothings mess and maybe laid her some good pipe a few times so now she thinks she's in love. Poor woman. Shit even her lil girl knows she's probably making a mistake. Riley set her straight when Kandi tried to say all them damn kids would be Riley's brothers and sisters.

"no, they would be my friends" never underestimate the logic of a child.

DesireeNevermind said:

Riley is like, "I don't know all them mofos like THAT!"

SCNDLS said:

Plus she knows her inheritance is at stake. Gotzta split the money 7 ways now ....fuuuccckkkk ttthhaaaattt!

and you know ole dude gonna try and put another baby in Kandi just to secure his own damn piece of the pie. skrait hustlin'!!

phunkdaddy said:

Yeah, that's the guy that co-wrote with them.

Her fiancee's got FOUR baby mamas according to her mother and has been sued for child support already. I don't care that her daughter looks up to him cuz that could be part of his game knowing that she's craving that.

In one scene Kandi's crying because her and all the women in her family are repeating the cycle of single parenthood, no man in the house, but in the outtakes she's crying because her mother won't cosign her marrying a dude that's left four women and six children in his wake.

Regardless of whether or not he takes cared of kids it's quite obvious that he doesn't learn from his mistakes and is quick to hop in the bed and into a relationship. But Kandi thinks she's somehow different and special and is exposing her impressionable daughter to this dude. Dumb broads abound.

SCNDLS said:

Now that i know this about dude. Yeah she's bout to fuck up sumtin.
Yeah dude comes with some serious baggage. And yes if dude has 4 baby
mamas and getting sued for child support then the rumors about him
slinging snow could very well be true. Damn!Damn!Damn! Kandi.

poor kandi, in the previews she's all crying in front of her momma about this dude. she seemed to feel some sort of stigma for being single mother and having all her relatives be single mothers. perhaps she wants to marry this dude just so she can call herself a housewife? there are some people that are all about the title and society does not look kindly on single mommas especially black single mommas.

DesireeNevermind said:

Nah, I can't say poor Kandi cuz she's upset about continuing the cycle but is hooking up with a dude that did the same thing to FOUR women.

I worked with Deshawn and she is really upset that her and her family were taken off the show. Understandably.

They wanted her to coon around and she wasn't down with it. She is striving for better things.

Too bad about Kandi and her situtation, she seems to have it together in her professional and financial life, but aching for the personal life. Maybe, a lot of women watching will see themselves in her and take thought to what they're doing. Personally, I've never understood meeting a man and moving him all into your house in the midst of your business, before you know his history, his family, his ethics, morals and baggage, especially women with children, many seem to do it the most often in less time. Desperation is a crazy thing.

And so far I'm getting the impression those women want Kim off the show, cause they all keep putting they're hands are her, but they don't do it to each other. It really reflects badly, a horrible message.

U can tell her that I said so.

Ok maybe this is a lil mean but when DeShawn's man got injured and couldn't play anymore I was kinda in the mood.


I never liked that she told Lisa and I'm paraphrasing here, "I don't know if I could live like that cuz y'all money is not stable" plus her inviting all them free loaders to her house for that non-fundraising fundraiser along with writing her church a $15,000 check and not cooking pretty much sincer her kids were born. I was thinking Woman DO SUMTHIN'!!!! Even though her hubby is sports casting these days, it's nice to see her not just spend spend spend. Same goes for Sheree. Heffer was shopping for shoes and dresses when she could have been paying the mortgage her damn self and not got evicted.
