Is Marlo Hampton OUT on Real Housewives of Atlanta?

April 13, 2012 by tamaratattles 19 Comments

So after the yawnfest of a RHOA season finale last Sunday, Marlo Hampton took to her personal blog and left a cryptic post. It’s been virtually ignored, but due to the lack of interesting tea today, I’m gonna pay her a little attention. Also, and perhaps related, I noticed and interesting tweet by Kim Zolciak the other night. She was responding to a tweet hoping Marlo would not be a permanent housewife. Kim’s response was, “It will never happen.” So is Marlo bidding us farewell in this post? Or is it just my wishful thinking? Click through to read the post and then tell me your reaction.  Apparently, knowledge of The Hunger Games may increase your understanding. Or not.

 

The wear and tear was starting to show. Fatigue setting in. The formula exhausted. It happens when you are slow to recognize opportunity, not committed to victory for all who play well. The audience knows it and sometimes they rebel.

I watched the Hunger Games, did you? The powers fed the hungry and the hungry continued to want more. Then Katniss arrived, tentative, distrustful, but honest. She entered the arena, not with the same packaging. She came in trailing fire. A few understood her possibilities right away.

In the end, she won on her own terms. Though the terrain was treacherous, her supporters kept her moving along. And she rewarded them, with theatre and spectacle – drama unforeseen.  But when the powers lost hold of the reins and she created her own ending, a sacrifice was made. The audience wanted a victor, but they were only allowed one.

Surely the powers must know, that even if the formula works, somewhere along the way it won’t, and the smart ones are those who deliver the new, even before its wanted…

Well? What do you make of that? Sounds like she’s out to me. Is Kim claiming the victory?

    She came on WAY TOO STRONG – and her past nailed her coffin shut even before she began…and I'm sure her appearance at the reunion only soldered the coffin nails.GOOD RIDDANCE. She may have brought "drama" but she also brought a seemingly gleefulness and boastful air about her criminal past.Shoplifting, writing bad checks…that is typical BRAVO criminal element….but slashing a woman's face and then boasting about her criminal record? A whole different kettle of fish.People think Kandi is shouting at Nene in the BRAVO clip … I think Kandi is shouting at Marlo regarding the "I could take care of every single MFer in here" comment.

    I like Marlo. She's fab. I personally hope she's makes it back next year.

    I have read several posts attributed to this woman and after hearing her talk on the show know that none of them were written by her… they were written by someone with an understanding of the English language – which Marlo does not grasp…Also – the affair on the stairs to raise $ by Ted Turners daughter – how much did Bravo pay to get her invited as these women clearly do have the same social circle… You can wash & dress a pig up – but it will still look for the closest wallow & nothing can hide the smell…I think we're all old enough to have lost our rose colored glasses by now…

    The line should read"These women clearly DO NOT have the same social circle""

    Yeah, the person who writes Marlo's blog doesn't even try to write in Marlo's voice. Marlo has probably never seen Hunger Games. I think the ghost writer is running out of the personal stories provided by Marlo to incorporate into the blog. In truth it must be sort of gut wrenching for Marlo to have to hire people to help her pretend to be something she is not. The fact that Marlo read an etiquette book, well okay had someone explain one to her before the South Africa trip is sad. The same can be said for most of the housewives…of everywhere.

    Marlo just was a big fraud. For all the designer labels she supposedly had in her closet, she had absolutely no class whatsoever. Mugshot Marlo was just one big juxtaposition. I wanted to give her a shot but then she opened that loud and obnoxious mouth of hers and I was done. And after learning what she did in the past and then try to make it seem like she was some innocent party, I was really done. Cya Mugshot Marlo! Take Sherree with you please

    It was time, for this hood to go. I just couldn't understand were she got her money from. I agree with Kandi, there is something up with this trick. She said her money came from God. Well I try praying asking God, for money and I havn't gotten her type of blessing. So, I'am happy she's gone.

    Marlo will not be back. She is too much of a liability. Bravo knows that she is unstable. Word is that she was not paid for her appearances on the show, but that she actuallly signed the same waiver to appear that every common person that the camera happens to capture (restaurant waitresses, etc.)signs. Perhaps she thought her appearance could spawn other opportunities, but it seems as if she has been unable to capitalize on that notion. Or perhaps she simply wanted a platform on which to display her name brand clothing to all of Atlanta. Random thought: Her hair edges are quite peezy when her weave blows back. Hard to believe Lawrence is putting that type work out there…

    OMG I love the word peezy. You have perhaps made my day! As for the word on the street that Marlo was not paid, I suppose it is possible. However, I heard that she was supposed to be a full housewife until hey got her background check…after already filming. Either way, I am beyond thrilled that she will not be returning and can hardly wait for the next set of mugshots. Why yes, I am crabby today, thanks for noticing. 🙂

    Marlo needs to go, she's a convict and unpredictable and scary. NeNe is about all the friend she has on the show and NeNe I hope is leaving.

    Marlo tried very hard to appear as if she was a lady but it never lasted more than a few minutes and like Jekyll and Hyde her other dark side came out. What legitimate successful person says there money comes from God? Too ridiculous, clearly the woman is an escort and I'm glad Kandi pointed that out. And the etiquette lessons, really? Who the hell is she of all people to be giving etiquette lessons, who wants or needs etiquette lessons from a convicted felon! That made me laugh because she was showing poor etiquette and bad taste by trying to "give lessons" when no one was interested, dumb ass. I bet this is how she gets treated when she is around the wealthy people she grovels around. The only reason Nene is friends with her because she needs a partner to bash the other girls and Cynthia is not gangsta enough.

    this is what it is…..ne ne is an actor. she had small roles on "fighting temptations" starring beonyce and cuba gooding jr. before she landed houswives. she had inside d list connections that got her an audition for this show…she then recommended her personal circle of friends…lisa wu hartwell, sheree whitfield, and kim zoliack…nene thought that she really was the boss since she "put these 3 ladies on" but what she didnt no was reality tv tactics from the producers kicked in.lisa was the only one of the 3 that ne ne didnt have an on camera fallout with…dat being said lisa was the only one still kissing ne ne's ass…but i think that had something to do with lisa wu hartwell quitting the show…lisa was smart she knew eventually the producers would start drama between her and nene and lisa didnt wana get on nene's bad side after all we all no ne ne can be as messy as any queen can be when it comes to calling out somebody's business and wanting to turn everybody that she so called" put on" against her enemies…as for sheree we all no she is a fake, broke, wannabe ok…but ne ne and sheree fell out because ne ne did some sneaky low down shit behind sheree back. i believe that ne ne did indeed demand more money for a booking that wanted ne ne and sheree remember ne ne is now rich and running to the bank cashing trump checks….donald trump.ne ne got offended cause word on the street was that sheree was talking very foul about her and ne ne didnt like that…ne ne felt like she put sheree on "don't bite the hand that feeds you" is what ne ne tweeted i believe once she had sheree fired from the show…that only fed ne ne's ego…when it comes to kim i think ne ne and her was just fake friends…the only thing they seemed to have in common was the fact that they both are willing to do anything to remain on tv….kim and ne ne really dont mix….even when they were suppose to colaborate on the "tardy for the party" song… i couldn't see that happening no way…if ya'll remember ne ne was there acting a fool playing around and drinking when kim played the demo track. ne ne did'nt no kim was gona be working with kandie. ne ne thought that the song, kim and the whole idea of her trying to be a artist was a joke. but little did ne ne no it would become an itune single therefore making kim relevant on the show while ne ne's storyline wasnt really going anywhere at the time. it was at this point i believe ne ne saw kim record a song, lisa start a clothing line and sheree attempt to act and start a clothing line that really sent ne ne into jealousy overtime. ne ne felt like this was her opportunity to persue her dreams of being a serious actress. so once she got her chance on celebrity aprentice…in her words…she got a little boost of confidence that began her complete personality, physical and financial change. since i have been a loyal fan of this show from day one i can say exactlly what i saw. ne ne time is up for me because she feels like she is over and beyond the housewives cause she has done glee with a reoccuring role. ne ne should remember all the tweets and quotes that she has said on in the media, on the show, and in her tweets. karma is a bitch ne ne and so is your attitude…..next!!!!! bring in the next nobody and boost them up to bravo….i am over ne ne leakes just like everybody else your 15mins is up….
