Oh Yay! Bravo has yet another reality series based in Atlanta. What is next? We already have fake wealthy women brawling, gay men in women’s high heels, and black lawyers who represent strippers proclaiming themselves as “southern belles.” How much more can we take? What’s wrong with Nashville, or Houston, or Memphis? Sigh.
The new show is called The New Atlanta. Everybody knows how much we need Yankees coming down here and telling us all about “the new Atlanta.” It follows Nene’s new Wedding show on Tuesday starting in September. And Speaking of Nene, it looks like she has learned a thing or two from Kandi Burruss because she is a producer on her show! Click through for all the details.

Alexandra Dilworth – A recent college grad, Alexandra is seen and heard in Atlanta’s hot Electronic Dance Music scene. She is a self-proclaimed “daddy’s girl” on the look-out for a husband who will be able to accommodate her current luxurious lifestyle.
Emily Lipman – Emily has the looks of the girl next door, but is a force to be reckoned with on her hunt for love. A successful boutique owner, she has quickly emerged as a new leader in Atlanta’s growing fashion industry.
Africa Miranda – A triple threat – actress, singer and model – Africa Miranda is turning heads in Atlanta. Co-creator of the live concept show “The Lipstick Junkies” and the face of several international hair campaigns, her sultry voice and lovely locks have put her front and center in Atlanta’s entertainment industry.
Tribble Reese – A partner in an event promotion company, Tribble always has the scoop on the hottest parties in town. An up-and-comer in Atlanta’s entertainment industry, this former arena football quarterback knows what it takes to score on the field but is also looking for a touchdown in love.
Jevon “Vawn” Sims – Vawn is known in Atlanta’s bustling music industry as the “Go-to-Guy” for artist development and discovering new raw talent. Now writing a book promoting his theories on love and romance, this “bad boy” with “good boy” qualities talks about relationships like never before. His tell-it-like-it-is attitude is one that you will either love or hate.
“The New Atlanta” is produced by Eastern and Monami Entertainment with Toby Barraud, Stefan Springman and Mona Scott-Young serving as Executive Producers and Angela Rae Berg, Jim Fraenkel and Michael Selditch serving as Co-Executive Producers.
About “I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding”
“I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding” proves that the second time around is a charm as the new docu-series features the nuptials of former spouses NeNe and Gregg Leakes. Fans have gotten up close and personal with the couple during “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” watching their happy marriage, devastating divorce and romantic reconnection. The stars align as the Leakes are ready to tie the knot once again in an extravagant wedding fit for a larger-than-life personality like NeNe.
Each episode follows NeNe as she plans the wedding of a lifetime and puts her team of experts to the test in executing her dream vision. Alongside NeNe is her bridal party, including Cynthia Bailey and Marlo Hampton, who bring a fair share of drama and fabulousness to the classy affair.
“I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding” is produced by True Entertainment and NeNe Leakes Productions for Bravo. Steven Weinstock, Glenda Hersh, Lauren Eskelin, Carlos King, Megan Sanchez-Warner and NeNe Leakes serve as Executive Producers.
Rolls eyes. The only thing I watch ATL related on Bravo is the RHOA. I’m not here for the medicine broads doing battle by the pool, and I’m not here for this either. Bleh.
I am with you on that one. Bravo is getting too typical now a days
And I apparently missed where Mona Scott Young is producing this show too. Child, she making that money off these fools. Ain’t mad at her.
I know I won’t be watching NeNe’s show but I would give the other a chance for an episode or two.
Looks like most of them are Atlanta natives, one of them use to be on ABC’s The Bachelor, they call him a “Southern gentleman” yet he is seen fist fighting in the trailer of the show.
Two women are also in a bar bathroom fighting. Looks like some drink throwing at a club and glasses being broken in a brawl.
Good lord… I’ll be watching. *sigh
I am not watching anymore ATL shows – I have had enough of watching women fight – backstab each other. I thought the doctor show would be better – but no they are just like RHOA.
The only reason the doctor show went off the rails and got bad was because it got hijacked by the foolery of Laquisha & Quad.
I think I watch MAYBE one episode of M2M. I don’t need to see any more black women throwing down and ripping off their earrangs.
Yeah, I am getting sick of other Atlanta shows like Love and Hip Hop, Married to Medicine, and now this one. It is going to be a bunch of catfights, and the Housewives-like reunion. Andy has no boundaries. Thanks for the tea. Kind of figured Nene would be a producer.
Ill stick with the trainwreck scripted fuckery whose name is love and hip hop atlanta
“Classy” has no place in a sentence that contains NeNe, Marlo and Cynthia. LOL Ever notice how people with real “class” never use the term “classy?” Years ago Ebony magazine did an article on Class vs Style. These women have a certain brand of style…class…forget it.
I totally agree! I hate it when skanky bimbos proclaim that they are “classy” because their slut skirts are two inches longer than the next whore’s, or their fake tits are only DDs and not Fs.
LOL, now, ain’t that the truth Dlister!
Nope … RHOA is the only reality show I watch regularly – for whatever reason, reading about this New Atlanta – reminded me of the Vanderpump spin off … maybe the young kids will like this new ATL show. I’m “reality show”-d out.
OH NO!!! Not another piece of junk from the ATL. Although, please don’t make any more suggestions of any production companies coming to Nashville, we love our quiet city and get enough people pouring into the city expecting to make it big as a C&W singer – a revolving door of one music genre is enough for any city! Although, on second thought – seeing a bunch of rich C&W wives fighting back stage at the Opry might be fun to watch, but just once…!
Yeah, I think all of these Atlanta shows are just meant for northerners to make fun of us.
Sean
Sean, I feel ya. I’m from New Jersey all my life. All those shows do NOT depict the variety of great true New Jersey folks we have here, and even the colorful and delightful transplanted New Yorkers who love to call our state their home.
I have never looked at any Bravo show about Atlanta as depicting the typical great folks from that gem of a city. I’ve been there and I loved it. The people were so nice to me, so friendly.
The Atlanta I know and love isn’t the Atlanta of these reality shows. I’ve had it with the scum.
That trouble guy was on Sweet Home Alabama reality show. First season. He’s sexy hawtness! Dumb as a box of rocks, But I’d hit it! Lolz!
Tribble. I meant Tribble…. Lmao! Autofill….
Atl. (my hometown, but don’t live there) is fast becoming the new 21st (or 22nd?) “hollywood” of sorts. I will watch both of these shows out of curiosity, even though I don’t care for the “NeNe” and all of her phoniness. And since I refused to watch KZ in her TFTP mess, I will give these a look see. M2M was a real disappointment and even the one on another network with the 1st Ladies of some of the churches (Sisterhood I think) wasn’t that good. Like some others have said the angry women fussing and fighting has gotten rather old. And I know what is being shown on tv is not the Atl that I know and love, and not indicative of the professionals that live there. Hope somebody comes up with something positive and entertaining for people to watch.
Meant to say 21st or 22nd century.
i would love to see a reality show in baltimore so send some of the producers up here. 😉 i will definitely be watching nenes and greggs wedding. i am actually looking more forward to that than the tamra/eddie wedding.
One of my favorite authors, Laura Lippman, writes so beautifully about Baltimore. And how can any NFL fan not love the spirit of the Baltimore Ravens? Wow. What a team!
Atlanta is a haven for televised foolishness. People come in droves for “fame and fortune” that’s tucked away in Atlanta; as a result, we get a reality circus of the sorts. The New Atlanta will be an extension of the buffoonery of the proceeding shows.
LOL @ Marlo being on NeNe’s show. Could be worse, we could have Twirl.Twirl.Twirl.
Okay, I just saw the previews for The New Atlanta. Spoiler: There is nothing new about this show and nothing Atlanta about it either. It’s a bunch of black folks acting a fool, throwing wine glasses and brawling. There is a token white couple. Lather rinse, repeat. Bravo.
Tamara, thought I would give you a heads up, the white girl Emily is a family friend of the despicable Andrea Schnedierman. In fact, her brother Andy Lipman is scheduled to testify on Andrea’s behalf at the hearing. He and his family also were one of the reasons that she made bond. They are v
They are very very close with the Schneiderman’s. When I read about the show a few days ago and saw the name and the face, i knew who she was from reading her brothers blog I ran across getting more info on Andrea. Should be interesting.
OMG.
Okay, So I went to Andy Lipman’s Blog. And did a little research on Emily. Both seem like very nice people. Andy has Cystic Fibrosis with a side of depression and anxiety. He is married to Andrea and they have lovely children. Several years ago, Andy and his Andrea met Rusty and his Andrea. Andy was very fond of and close to Rusty, and as a result Andrea. He was devastated by Rusty’s murder and it seems is standing by his friend Andrea. No judgment here. I assume he will be testifying on Andrea’s behalf. That’s what friends do. They assume innocence unless something can convince them beyond a shadow of a doubt of their guilt. He knows Andrea better than we do. He could be right. But regardless, he really should not be an issue for us. Emily, seems nice enough too. She was involved with Haiti after the quake and does a lot of benefit stuff to support finding a cure for CF.
Nonetheless, this show looks dreadful.
But Tamara, remember, There’s NO business like show business ! 🙂
