On tonight’s Real Housewives of Atlanta, Nene has set a fabulous dinner table and hired caterers and a bartender for her dinner party. Phaedra has missed the flight and the Hummer limo that the girls rented to take them up into the hills can’t make the twisty turns. So far things are not going well.
The girls are staying in a fabulous house near Nene’s house. Nene has mentioned that dinner is at 9 twice but neither time showed her lips moving. The girls are exhausted from their flight. It’s barely five hours from ATL to LAX. SMH. But Cynthia clearly says in the Hummer Limo that they were supposed to be there at 9 and it’s after 11. How did the limo get to the house to pick them up? It’s almost midnight when they arrive for dinner. Where was the explanation scene of what the hell took them so long? Nene is not having it. I must say that it is good to have Nene in more scenes this week, these other girls just can’t carry the show. Clearly, the point of the trip was for the girls to see Nene and visit the set of The New Normal. How is it possible they couldn’t make the gig? These idiots have the nerve to talk as if Nene was being disrespectful. Kandi is asking for a plate. Kenya is peeping i the window. This is awful. Gregg actually brings Kandi a plate! And then they ask for dessert! Ghetto.
Nene is still mad the next day and I don’t blame her. The girls go to the Groundlings theatre for some Improv work. Kenya tries to talk about her 18 years of acting experience. I would laugh out loud but I am too tired. Cynthia said she has done some small stuff on The Cosby Show. Porsha says she has done stage acting. I’m not going to go there. Kandi says she went to a performing arts high school and was in a musical theatre group. The just sort of skipped over Phaedra. She probably said she acts all the time on the Real Housewives. The more the other girls talk, the bigger stinkface Kenya gets. They are waiting for Nene and Kandi says that the one they are waiting on is more of an accomplished actress. Cut to Kenya Moore in her talking head trying to convince us she is a famous actress and she ends with “please recognize.”
The girls take turns shouting compliments at each other as part of the Improv. It goes about as well as you would expect. Porsha says to Kenya who is wearing a shirt that shows her rather large belly button, “Your belly button is invisible!” Finally, Nene has arrived. Let’s hope she can make this scene more bearable.But no, apparently the Improv lesson is over. That was the worst Improv class in the history of the world.
Nene is wearing her clam digger denim shorts that I told her to lose in Anguilla with a hot pink thong. They have the three day stretch thing happening so we are treated to a full view. Where to they make thongs in that size? And um, why? It seems that real housewives cannot drive gold carts and Nene is no exception. I think she broke one of those arms off the parking entrance.
The ladies head out for dinner (at a restaurant this time) and look great. There is a lot of speculation about Porsha being pregnant because she is not drinking. This leads Kandi to admit that Kim did know that she was planning to name her baby Kash and she stole the name. Porsha’s scripted line was to ask about the damn donkey booty video so that there will be some conflict. So Kenya tells the name for her video and Phaedra won’t tell the name of hers because she doesn’t want Kenya to steal it. Kenya said she is filming hers later in the week and it will be out by December. Talk turns to Kenya and she tells the girls she has broken up with Walter. The girls say they like Walter and they are still inviting him to things. Porsha had a party and invited Walter but not Kenya. Porsha says it was a great party. Kenya storms away from the table. Nene goes off to bring her back. Kenya says she will punch Phaedra in the face.
Next week in Vegas looks good.
nice update! thanks! 🙂
Boring. That’s all I got this trip
I’m confused. The house we saw in the beginning was Nene’s? It looked like a hotel bc Nene took a hotel up to the 4th floor, plus the hummer couldnt fit up the road.
Then at 16min in when Nene turned the ladies away, the hummer pulled up to her front door, so how did the hummer fit the 2nd time but not the first.
I agree w Nene not allowing the ladies in, they were 3 HOURS LATE! Why? The show didnt say WHY WERE THEY LATE ?
No, that was a house that Nene rented for the “ladies” because she didn’t want them to stay at her house.
I agree with Nene. You don’t show up to no one’s house at Midnight and expect to be let in, let alone seated for dinner. They had the absolute nerve talking like she was either speaking a foreign language or she was just dead wrong, when they were dead wrong! What pipe were they hitting that night?
I agree as well. This was a catered, sit-down dinner that involved other guests, not cocktails at Da Club. That was some serious country bumpkin foolery. No, actually I take that back and recant; I’ve met many a person in many a countryside around the world who has better manners than that ghetto mess the ladies tried to pass of as acceptable guest behavior. You show up 3 hours after seating? Really? Chile please. Have some respect for your hostess (as well as respect for yourselves) and learn to be punctual.
I don’t agree with NeNe: she should have been a more gracious host to her friends even if they were rude in being extremely late. IMO, she should have walked them through the house, stood around in the kitchen chatting and let them pick over leftovers for a half hour, and then told them she had an early day tomorrow and saw them out – and expected a major apology/flowers/card/something from her friends thereafter.
Something had to be up, though, like maybe this was a combination of the HWs being late, production missteps, etc, because no one blamed anyone in particular for being late and there was no explanation offered.
Kenya is so dramatic! She just makes herself looks more crazy….storming off over Walter who you hired? Girl please…bye with that mess! Anyway, they are getting a bit boring and I wonder how long this show will continue to survive? I am assuming it will last as long as people like me continue to watch it. Good job on the recap but the show itself has become pretty boring!
This episode was boring, but compared to the previous couple of episodes it picked up a little bit.
First of all if she had guests in the home already, why turn the other ladies away? That is stupid. Nene pulled this shit because she knows she has been boring all season.
Kandi is hilarious not putting up with Nene’s fake ass Hollywood shit. And Nene saying that people are jealous of her? Kandi has waaay more money than Nene does. What does Nene have to be jealous of? Her two rented homes, one in ATL, the other in LA? PFFTTT.
Second of all, Nene finally got the guts to @ the person she is shit talking, and she is shit talking Kenya up a storm, and Kenya allows it and calls Nene her “friend.” SOME FRIEND.
I was hoping that Kenya would give Nene a run for her money. but she isn’t. She kisses Nene’s ass, while Nene talks major shit about her.
It seems like it helps to kiss Nene’s ass. Anyone that doesn’t is no longer on the show. Sheree and Kim, who don’t put up with Nene’s crap left/got fired.
This season is the most boring of all seasons of RHOA. BRAVO, fire Nene’s fake ass. Hell, send her to Beverly Hills Housewives. Brandi Glanville, and Lisa Vanderpump wouldn’t bow down to her and kiss her ass.
I totally agree with you. Nene with manners? LOL She is a classless phoney with a long history of breaking the law.
Wont be long before she is diving on that new show, except they would have to install a board strong enough to hold her.
She wouldnt last on RHOBH because she would quit because her bullying tactics wouldnt work aka The Apprentice?
Nene is The New Boring
Pffft,
I agree about Beverly Housewives, most of them really come from or have money. Nene couldn’t smell Lisa, Camille, Kim or Yolunda’s panties if she wanted too! The other housewife shows do show real family issues and Atlanta still displays women being caddy about nothing! Viewers need to quit hating on Kenya, what ever she has fake its tight and right! Nene has a fake nose, boobs,stomach etc.
Oh, and Porsha was very mean to Kenya, when Kenya was being sincere. Oh, and how much are the leash laws in Atlanta, cause Kordell stay abiding the law. He ain’t letting Porsha off that leather strap that’s around her neck for nothing in the world. It’s sad. Is that her father or her husband? Something is not right there.
YES! she was very ugly her and Phaedra! i wish they would grow up already…i think Porsha really wanted to be friends with Kenya and when it went sour and didn’t pick up the way she wanted it to she got spiteful!
Who the hell shows up for dinner three hours late and expects to get fed??? Did they think they were going to Denny’s?
Kandi explained on twitter that Phaedra’s flight was LATE and Nene even knew they would be late. Kandi also said there were guests inside the home. WATCHING Nene kick them out.
I don’t see how any of these girls including Cynthia would want to be friends with that fat hag.
Nene had to STAGE drama to remain relevant on the show. Go away Nene!
Y am I not suprised.
I just watched WWHL and NeNe and Cynthia were the guests. NeNe stated she was still there when Phadra arrived and it was seven o’clock. That gave them almost two hours to get ready. NeNe said their hotel was close to her house. Also NeNe said she could see fifteen or thirty minutes late but almost three hours? I would’ve probably done the same. At least one of them should have called and given her a heads up and I want to know why they were late. That was never brought up or talked about.
Exactly!! Did everyone conveniently forget that NeNe told them on the phone not to come? Kenya had the bright idea to go and do a “sit in.” Some events are okay to be a little late to but I would never be late to a dinner! Not just to show courtesy to the host but because I don’t want to heat up cold food.LOL!! I’m pretty sure the guests inside could not hear what was going on in the driveway. Even if they could it was going to be seen on tv anyway!! That entire scene could have been avoided by doing 1 of 2 things, showing up on time or not showing up after they were told NOT to come.
Nene said on WWHL that there were NO guests in her house when the girls got there. She said that it was just the caterers cleaning up.
Then who were the two women cocktail dresses that were flanking Nene toward the end of her conversation with the ladies? She still had guest over. I don’t blame her for being mad and not allowing them in though.
I agree with alot of what’s being said, it is amazing to me that NeNe with her new norm as thrown shade at everyone, even Cynthia(not has much but)it just goes over her head. Now don’t get me wrong I’m glad NeNe is getting it……but please remember she just started getting it…….Kandi, Phedrea and Cynthia have been doing their thing for a minute. Nene is out there in LA with the newbies and it’s ok to have newbies but girl don’t forget the old friends.
And, if someone don’t get Kenya, girl stop the shows, Porshea you and your man may need to exit out if you plan on staying married these are some independent females with strong months…..Baby.
Also, it seems to me that Nene is just getting the light some of these ladies,their light is getting a bigger bulb baby with the spin offs.
Nene I just started liking you more and more please don’t take it away.
On WWHL, Nene said that Phaedra was not late, she was still at the house when Phaedra got there at 7. There is really no excuse to being late, if anything Nene could of planned a later dinner but at the same note, they could of just been on TIME….
ALSO WTF is up with Nene calling EVERYONE a hater if they even slightly say something negative about her or do not agree with her? YET, she talks the most shit about everyone with the exception of Cynthia.
I think that a psychologist would have a field day with Nene. There is something wrong with her. She is sick.
Just wait til she has to humble herself back to the slums of Atlanta…. no hatn -_-
What’s that old saying? Don’t step on people/treat people bad on your way up the ladder because you’ll see them on your way back down.
I believe the saying is more like, be careful of the asses you kick getting to the top, they may be the same asses you kiss coming down!
What in the WORLD was Kandi wearing this episode? She has never been a fashion guru, but the clothes she chose to wear in LA were RIDICULOUS!
It was definitely better this week than previous weeks. Great recap as usual!
You are so right Kandi is fashion clueless I would not allow her to dress a dollbaby. Have you ever noticed the clothes she puts on her daughter horrible. She dressed that child like the milk maid when they went to Cynthia’s pageant.
Her daughter is 10-years-old.
Kandi looked fine to me. It is nene who looked crazy. She was wearing a gray/grey off eh shoulder ripper sleeved waist knotted shirt. SHE PAID MONEY FOR THAT?
On WWHL Nene says “i act 40 not 20 bc I am 40”. Well please dress 40 okay!
..o and she called the ladies HOOD, but her ass was drivng the cart barefoot and WALKING OUTSIDE BAREFOOT on the public california studio lot. YUCK YUCK YUCK
Outside of NeNe not letting them in this was a sleeper episode. Kenya really needs to learn how to take positive and negative criticism and stop running away when things don’t go her way. WWHL Cynthia as usual looked lovely but I must say NeNe and her hair was horrific that look on her is so played out. I like NeNe but her talking head remarks used to be funny I now just find them sarcastic. Poor Porsha she still has plenty of growing to do to develop into her own woman. It’s ok to be a housewife but don’t hang your hat on a man do something to develop yourself in case that hat falls. But when you think of it a person treates you the way you allow them to maybe she will wake up soon.
This episode was the most disappointing – Kandi, especially. (I don’t think the “can I get a plate” was scripted.) The Atlanta housewives sunk to an all time low showing up three hours late for a dinner party – and in no way is Nene showing up for an hour long improve class the same, no comparison whatsoever. And, Cynthia calling at 11:30 to say “we’re on our way” was about as bad as Kandi looking for a plate to go.
Im postive she was trying to lighten the tension
Anyone else think Sheree is returning next season? Andy tweets her from time to time. And usually when Housewives leave the franchise, he unfollows them. He still follows her. He unfollowed all the New York housewives when they left, he unfollowed the DC Housewives, and he mentions her everytime an Atlanta housewife is on WWHL. Asking if they have seen her, asking about her home, or asking if they are wearing She by Sheree.
It’s never been done but I could see him doing it for Kim. She stated at the start of this season that she is coming back for season 6. With her fall out with Kandi and not really knowing the new ladies, it leaves her no one to really film with. I could see them bringing her back for Kim’s sake, even if only as a “friend of the housewives.”
If Bravo lets Kim come back after quitting so dramatically, I’M DONE!! She does not deserve to be on RHOA, let her have her own show and if it flops, it flops!
I hope not. not because she’s boring but basically because i wish they would just find new people and show another side of Atlanta bc this side of Atlanta they are showing is just over the top.
It’s possible that Kim could come back. Kim does keep saying that she will be back for season 6 since she left on her own free will. Kim also says that she will be at the reunion!
Porsha, why are you so STUPID!!! You are the most stupid person I have ever seen and you are not even blond. Please do us a favor and don’t skip the birth control.
@the wayIseeit : I agree. If she didnt know how to use the coffee make why not ask for help?
Does she have a chef at home?
When she was dating Kordell was she this ditzy/stupid at basic things?
I bet her parents and siblings were surprised and overjoyed when she married.
PLEASE STOP CALLING THIS YOUNG LADY STUPID. SHE SPEAKS WELL, SHE DRESSES WELL, AND SHE HAS HER OWN VIEW ON HOW SHE WANTS TO LIVE HER LIFE WITH HER HUSBAND. I WISH HER HUSBAND COULD MEET YOU AND SHOW YOU HOW MUCH HE DETESTS PEOPLE MISTREATING HIS WIFE.
So because you dress well that makes you not stupid? If i wore Versace through HS would i be the Valedictorian at the end? oh. And she hardly speaks well. She could barely pronounce “perturbed” one episode!
You crack me up, ebony. I wore Calvin Klien in HS. I did aiiight.
Hard to watch tonite…Nene=sickening Kenya=sickening Porsha??? Kandi..those b/w pants….smh. I just don’t know what to say about these ladies anymore.
Nene twit re she paid for her furniture was about Kenya saying she gave Nene a table.
Nene’s table setting of just clear glasses was sad.
On WWHL Cynthnia said she had to tell Kenya what Phaedra said about her as if Bravo made her do it
What kind of limo Company takes a job and does not know in advance that their limo cant make it up the narrow street.
Boring episode – in fact the entire season has been a bust. Nene thinks everyone is a hater that does not kiss her ass. Kandi has more money than all of them put together. Nene has small parts and gets small money compared to the other people on the show. i am so over Nene and her fat ass.
I wont get to watch this until the end of the week but had to comment. I am so tired of the baby name thing. Kandi was nowhere near to being pregnant so for her or anyone to expect nobody else to name their kid Kash in the meantime is stupid. It’s a freakin name!
Ok this is silly but why doesn’t Greg understand the pool he was “cleaning” needed about 100 more gallons of water, Nene’s feet didn’t even hit the water, it started two feet below the ground level!
Boring episode, I also cannot stand Nene and her angry ass, she needs to be on the LA Shrinks show. I think Kim should come back with some new cast mates that are her friends.
The “you stole my baby name” storyline is very 5th grade, like you stole my boyfriend that I wasn’t really dating but lusted after in my head….grow up!
TIme for a major shake up next season!
I just want Phaedra to go away. I am with Nene on not letting them in for the dinner party. They were beyond rude showing up three hours late. And Porsha is a conniving little twit. She was Kenya’s friend attempting to help with breakfast, but as soon as she was able to take a dig, she went for it. Grow up little girl! Kenya too needs to grow up. She can dish it but storms off when she can’t take it! This brand of housewives is falling apart. They need to revamp and recast. Its awful this season.
This show seems to be one of the least scripted episodes so far. Being a lady from the south, it seemed like genuine banter between the ladies. Kandi asking for a plate may be deemed “ghetto”, but somehow between close friends (even with all the drama they’ve been through) that didn’t seem much of a big deal to me. I always enjoy watching the episodes when they travel. Personally I’m glad there was not big knock down, drag out, Gone with the Wind twirling scene this time.
to me the scene where nene turned everyone away for being late, and the subsequent “late” scene for the improv was obviously contrived but i can’t figure out why. filler is all i can come up with. plus i don’t think nene was going to get in there and do improv on national t.v., insecure people are like that. i think it made nene look like an asshole. if that was for her acting resume then nene don’t be surprised when all you get are the angry black woman roles.
porsha might be my new favorite! when she said kenya’s giant belly button was invisible i died laughing! and i think i might agree with kenya a little when she said everyone pushes her to get angry then wants to call her crazy.
I agree kenya seems to be tryna be neutral with everyone and then at dinner they wanted her to go off and that was wrong. Kenya tries to be so cool with nene and she continues to talk about her badly on twitter and interviews its sad. For nene to be so over the drama and a Hollywood star she acts like a child running on twitter talking about people. And then she wonders why some actresses don’t like her look at the way she acts but of course in nene mind there hating on her smh. There’s been rumors the new normal might get cancelled so she better not be so quick to talk down on people. What goes up must come down. And one more thing how can nene call kandi fat? Does she realize she’s not skinny.
That is what I don’t get. Why is Kenya allowing Nene to talk such shit about her and call her a “friend?” GROW A BACK BONE Kenya. I think Kenya wants to take Cynthia’s place and be up Nene’s ass.
I think Kenya gets a raw deal in editing. Frankly, I think Kenya along with Porsha (though I don’t care for Porsha) have been the most “real” all season. Sure, Kenya fabricated the Walter thing but clearly that was a business move to get footing on the show, unfortunately that fell apart. I don’t think Kenya is a punk and I think most underestimate her. On another note, I try to like Nene but she is so paranoid and back woods. Why does she continually bring up the “hating” thing? So what if it’s true, why give that negativity life? Maybe Bravo forces her to do it, but it makes her out to be more obnoxious and nauseating than needed! Stop it Nene! Enjoy your success and don’t worry about alledged hate from others!
So if Kenya is being nice, she has no backbone. If Kenya refuses to be back down from Phaedra, she is crazy. I think Kenya can hold her own!
There is something up with cynthia,Nene better handle her with a long handle spoon, very long. I hope Nene will forgive those comments in the
Past that were made by Kandi and continue to fly above. Cynthia is much to
Old to act like she is in Junior high, she is the one who start the agruments
By running and telling. I respect Greg for having his wife back. If Nene can
Come to Atl and be on time well what is wrong with them. The problem is
They are getto.
Phaedra wasn’t feeling well when she arrived. That may have been part of the problem. Kandi said Nene knew they would be late AND Cynthia said she was in contact with Nene.
However, Nene said they never informed her. Nene is full of shit. She couldn’t even get Cynthia to go along with the lies.
Nene told them not to come. Anyway, Phaedra was probably sick from being pregnant but didn’t know it at the time.
I think the whole episode was staged. I think the house that Nene has in LA is a staged house just for the show. I wouldn’t be surprised if Bravo is paying for it. Nene said she had to go out and buy dishes for the dinner. I think that the only reason she did not want the girls to stay with her is that bravo doesn’t have the house furnished. There was a quick glimpse in the kitchen cabinets and they were basically empty. Besides, I don’t think Nene makes enough money to keep 2 households going at one time. Houses in LA are NOT cheap even when just renting.
Cynthia said to Andy last night that she was in touch with Nene the whole night either by phone or by texting. So Nene was aware the the girls were going to be very late. Again like I said, it was all staged.
OMG! Kandi and those pants! She no she got no business wearing that shit! She really needs someone to teach her how to dress, and whats with all the women and those titties all up into their necks? Bring those puppies down! They got them all pushed up into their noses hoping they will look bigger. Well ladies instead of looking bigger they look like they have miniature butts in their necks! Phaedra is the worst!
Even though I think the whole dinner thing was staged I cant believe that Kandi had the balls to ask for a togo plate! That was definitely showing her ghetto side. Show up 3 hours late and ask for a togo plate! LOL! Cynthia is nothing but a big tattle tale. She is another Kyle. She just keeps stirring the pot to make herself relevant. (in my Forest Gump voice)> and thats all I got to say about that!
Oh how times have changed. I remember when I could not point out the tiniest issue with Nene (like her huge undergarment problems) and now y’all all seem to think she is in the wrong for everyone being 3 hours late to a catered dinner party.
If I was Nene, Gregg would have gotten an earful for bringing Kandi out a plate. Nene told them to leave, they should leave and he should not interfere with them leaving.
Nene’s response was extra. There were still people at her house -sorry suga plum but those were not caterers. Plus when you plan something for people within hours of their arrival, you should let them know in advance. NeNe has the right to be salty but that was over the top… I agree with the person who said, be gracious, let them in, show them the house and ask them to leave in 20 minutes when the party was supposed to end any way… She had the right to be mad for sure but again a lady has more tact and class. I like NeNe but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t often get it wrong. She is definitely getting the Hollywood bigheads BUT I definitely hope she is being financially responsible to maintain that lifestyle when her shine diminishes. I doubt very seriously that she will have a substantial acting career.
I am tired of Nene! That episode was pretty good (better than the last two weeks) but I am sick of her “I’m above you all and rich” attitude! Why does she stay shading Kenya all the time???? It’s obvious she’s jealous of Kenya and Kandi. I have not seen Kandi say ANYTHING negative about Nene the whole season so who are these jealous haters? It must be some footage we are not seeing as viewers. I honestly think the reason why Kenya has not gone crazy on Nene is because she is trying to secure her spot for next season…I think she will be back though…Porsha and Phaedra needs to go! Heck, Nene can go too! She thinks she is the show but what she fails to realize is that KENYA has been the center of attention this season and has carried this show! Sorry boo…Phaedra is shady and her storyline is tired. I personally thought it was funny when Kandi was shading Nene! I can’t wait for this reunion…it’s going to be a hot mess!
Did anyone else catch (skimmed comments but didn’t see anyone mention it) Kenya saying SHE was the one that wanted everyone to experience Groundlings?! More proof that this wasn’t NeNe’s trip, but production’s.
