One of the downsides of having your own website, is that it takes a lot of work and consumes all of your time. It keeps me from reading other blogs that I used to really enjoy, like StraightFromtheA. Michelle is a great source of RHOA tea because she is very active in the ATL social life and runs in the same circles as a few of the housewives. Phaedra in particular. Because of her friendliness with Phaedra, Atlien has been fairly mum on the unfortunate position that Phaedra is currently facing. She did however post recently about a party to celebrate Cynthia’s spread in Ebony Magazine, that she attended. She is also the source for the numerous reports you guys a have sent me (thanks!) about Phaedra “taking a leave of absence” from filming RHOA. If you had told me that the story was coming from Atlien I would have investigated sooner. I’ve drilled down all the tea. Grab a snack and get ready for this because there is a lot to cover. And for me the Phaedra stuff is a mere side order.
I am continuing to research and am not sure where to start. First of all, the party was held on July 17th at Bar One to celebrate Cynthia Bailey’s Ebony Magazine spread. All of the former housewives were there except three. According to Atlien, Phaedra was en route when she was tipped off that Apollo was there. She opted not to show up. It is interesting that production would not alert Phaedra to the fact that her soon to be ex husband would be at the event.
As you recall, I exclusively reported that the previous day, July 16th, Apollo, Phaedra and the boys were filming in Chastain Park. They arrived in separate cars, even the boys and the nanny had their own car. It sounded like a supervised visitation sort of thing to me. I speculated that it would be the Phaedra and Apollo breakup scene. Perhaps she presented the divorce papers. There have been reports of Phaedra filing for divorce this week. I found nothing on the website to substantiate that claim. However, it is obvious that will be happening. My spies in Phaedra’s neighborhood say they haven’t seen Apollo at the house in quite some time. She’s done with him. This is not news.
According to Atlien, this setup of Phaedra by production to get another scene with the two of them together, caused her to “take a leave of absence” from filming. My guess that” leave of absence” will come to mean only filming at home with the boys until Apollo is off to the big house. I get the feeling she does not want to wander onto another RHOA set only to be greeted by Apollo. Can she do that after signing a contract? Bravo could hold her to the contract, or she could solve the issue by taking out a restraining order I suppose. I imagine that Bravo will acquiesce to her wishes since he should be gone in a few months. I am guessing given the nature of the marriage, Apollo might actually be able to negotiate a paycheck for his last few scenes. I’m hoping if he did, it will go straight to the restitution fund.
Another housewife not in attendance was Nene Leakes. My initial reaction was YASSSSS! Even more proof that Nene is a part timer this season! So I went to check out where Nene Leakes was on July, 17th. And that was easy, she was in the Bravo clubhouse. Plus, she still HATES Cynthia. So… what better excuse to get out of attending what was likely an all in Bravo function that a trip to the clubhouse. It does make me feel better about my source saying she is “limited capacity” because erryone else was there. So to me this is bigger news confirming my source. It was also interesting to me that Atlien did not explain either of the other two absences…
Like Porsha’s glaring absence, that once again reinforces my source. Porsha likes Cynthia and the other girls who were there, Kandi, and Todd, (technically not a girl) and Kenya. Porsha has seemingly gone full-time on Dish Nation. She is still on there and was supposed to be a June fill-in for someone, but has been very successful on that show. It seems to be a great match for her. She didn’t tweet much if any on July 17th. She has also been doing a lot of meet and greet club events. Looking more and more like a FOH if anything.
Which brings us to Kenya. Atlien hates Kenya, which is understandable because she is friends with Phaedra and to a smaller degree Nene. According to Atlien, Kenya was there and filmed a scene with Apollo where he came clean to Kenya about why he claimed she was texting with him inappropriately. Apparently, Phaedra saw him texting Kenya and he blamed the whole thing, which was never a thing, on Kenya and her interest in him. Again, this is not a new revelation. I thought that was sorted out in Mexico, but apparently after Apollo’s behavior on the reunion necessitated a new scene. Another person at the filming claims that Kenya and Apollo were both there but at different times. That makes sense to me, because Kenya had to catch a plane to her Vegas event the next day. Also because I don’t think Kenya has any more desire to film with Apollo than Phaedra does. That said, I believeAtlien and don’t think she would make up a fakescene being shot. So Kenya was there with Apollo that the other party didn’t notice is my best interpretation of conflicting accounts. You can read the post from STFA here.
UPDATE: I finally caught up with my best source while furiously trying to confirm things. Here is what I found out. Nene is refusing to film with Cynthia. So even if she wasn’t on WWHL that night, she would not have gone to Bar One. For now, production seems to be tolerating her bullshit. Kenya is refusing to tape with Porsha, because… well because Porsha assaulted her. Now I am wondering if this whole “limited contract” talk has more to do with who these two will film with and less about whether or not they will hold a peach. This leaves Nene and Porsha filming together and apart from the other housewives. This will go on for a while. Probably until Porsha’s criminal case goes to court. My current understanding is that Porsha’s ‘limited capacity” (giggle) contract is not at all the same as Nene’s.
Neither contracts are Friend Of contracts. That is the bad news, because, they may or may not both be holding a peach in the opening but both have lessor roles. Porsha’s contract is something I have never, ever heard of Bravo doing before. She’s basically being “retested” like they do with new housewives. She is being paid, but her contract has a short potential end date. It’s hard to understand, mostly because it is hard to remember to listen to Source and not think, “OMG, what other questions do I have?” at the same time. Basically, her contract is to shoot for x number of weeks, with a possible renewal for more weeks or be cut. Which sounds promising!
Except…Nene needs a new ally, and Porsha is doing a lot of filming with Nene. So Porsha may be kept on so Nene has someone to film. Nene’s “limited contract” is apparently one that allows her more freedom to do other things on camera than simply film with the rest of the cast. Like her Zumanity stuff, and her HSN stuff. It sounds like she will still be paid for all of the episodes meaning she is making good money, and will likely hold a peach if they have enough stuff to put her on every episode in some capacity. Even if she is just filming with Gregg talking about all of her “opportunities.” I am not sure if this letting Nene decide who she will and won’t film with attitude is going to last all season with production or not. Clearly, they have their hands full of divatude this season.
I asked if Phaedra ditched filming, and about the leave of absence thing. Source said that Phaedra arrived at Bar One but did not come in because Apollo was there. She told production she wasn’t feeling well or something and left. There is no “leave of absence” this is not corporate America, and she had filmed again since the Bar One shoot.
Kenya did film a scene with Apollo where he apologized to her for making up lies about her, specifically the made up LA stalking drama. I doubt Kenya was too excited by this current apology kick. Sometimes sorry is not enough. If someone had been lying to the world about me for two seasons, saying I’m sorry I lied doesn’t make up for making my life a living hell. Now, Phaedra apologizing for believing her husband might mend some fences. I don’t see that ever happening either, unless it somehow benefits Phaedra.
Next, I had a couple of paragraphs about two people I thought were potential replacements. I ran them by Source and Source flatly denied they were being tested. So that was hours of research that was for nothing. Basically, they are testing a few people, but nothing has been decided yet and they remain open to testing other options. They would like two brand new faces, they ideally want another wife with young kids but have not really found anyone that fits those perimeters. The only name I could pry out of Source was Demetria McKinney. Demetria is a single singer/actress who is on the Tyler Perry production Meet the Browns. She has done other acting work, mostly for Tyler Perry. I didn’t get the impression that this casting was a sure thing, just someone they are considering among a few others. According to Wikipedia, Demetria is 30 and she is really to young to fit in. They are trying to push out Portia for a reason, mainly immaturity and lack of self-control.
So that is everything that I was able to confirm regarding this situation. There were a few other tidbits I might include in some upcoming post. Sorry this took so long. I was waiting for confirmation, and have had a lot going on in my personal life (what little one I have) today. I am going to go find some wine. I’m not sure I am up for RHONJ tonight. But, I’ll give it the old college try I suppose.
I’ve been anxiously waiting to read about this from you!! Thanks TT! You ae hands down theeeeee beesstttt!!
Me too!!!
I can’t even finish reading this because that pic of Nene with the weird Joker mouth made me feel like I was having an acid flashback.
ha! I was scrolling down to see how much MORE tea there was when I saw that pic!! Hilarious and jarring, all at the same time.
Cheshire Nene is what Nightmares are made of.
Oh dear god, I thought the same thing!
I thought their new contracts gave them no choice in who they film with. But I guess a BS “I’m sick” answer means bravo couldn’t argue if it was for health reasons. It’s only going to get worse for Phaedra especially when that deposition is released by James radford
Remember when Phaedra kept inviting Walter to events to irritate Kenya – I guess she got a taste of her own medicine by the production crew. When you play dirty things have a way of coming back around on you. I guess no one wants to run into an ex – especially at your work place.
Good point!! Phaedra is really eating everything she did to Kenya last year
Maybe….. Phaedra may not have a TRO, but she may have informed the show’s producers that there was violence between she & Apollo. They wouldn’t have a leg to stand on to pressure her to film with him. Maybe…. that is.
Was Sheree there? I would honestly love to see Nene walk into an event and see Sheree, Cynthia, and Kenya! LMAO
LOL no Sheree.
And I ran across that Nene pic on twitter last night while reading about people that didn’t even end up making in this post. I thought it was rather strategically placed. 🙂
I just ran out of steam on this post. I should have edited it down because it is way too long and could have been said with way less words. But I just figured out what is wrong with me. It’s hot as balls outside and I just noticed it is almost 80 degrees in this house. I somehow don’t notice when I am hot. It’s weird. It should cool down in a bit.

Maybe they too have drank away the braincells that tell you you are hot? 🙂 I take a supplement (maca root) that stops lots of hormonal symptoms and works really well for hot flashes. I didn’t have much of an issue with hot flashes really, but this stuff makes me FEEL cooler.

The low last night was 75. So hot and humid today that it feels like a sauna every time my dog makes me take her out. It is suppose to be 88 for a couple of days this coming week, Please Lord let it be true, TT, Nene’s teeth picture is sooooo good. And, her mouth is what keeps her in trouble.
I was given Zoloft for hot flashes. It works. Weird.
Oh please…come to Vegas in July. Wusses. (Actually I spend all my time going from my air conditioned home, to an air conditioned car, to an air conditioned building and back again.)
Loved this gossip and donating because it’s nice and long and full of good stuff.
I’ve heard good things about this maca root. All the World Cup boys (insert Homer Simpson drool) were saying they take it in various forms.
Nene pulled this same crap in season 4 and 5 which were very BORING seasons of RHOA. All she did was film in Hollywood and with Gregg and her scenes sucked. Nobody wants to see her do HSN crap, or dance dressed up as a tranny…. zzzzz.
I think Nene will watch this show sink before she lifts a finger to do her job. It’s her way or no way. A sort of cutting off her nose to spite her face thing. She will do whatever to not film with RHOA but continue to cash those checks and stupid Bravo will allow her to do it. Had the New Normal picked up, she would have dropped RHOA in a heartbeat. She’s now doing what a lot of people do: look for another job while you have a job. And when she finds what she thinks will last for a while, she’ll tell Bravo and Andy to kiss her ass.
Love, love,love that pic of her with all those teeth! Too funny!
Nene has always said that she is the show and without her it would die.
Now she has to prove her point. Selfish, egotistical bitch!
@lisalisa and Linda . Nene doesn’t have the power to sink the show . There’s more where she came from who are more entertaining and less disgusting .
Bravo wont allow her “I make the show ” words come to pass . I’m sure there are literally thousands of Women just waiting to take her place . They can even ship Dr. Heavenly over from married to medicine to replace her . They can ship in any sassy person of any creed , Her attitude (and past humor ) comes a dime a dozen .
So true lisalisa
I watched Nene on HSN for almost an hour. She was actually pretty “normal”. In fact, she was too normal. Kind of like a “Real Housewife of Stepford”. 2 slip ups I noticed: Someone named Sabrina called in, and Nene goofed and said “Hi, Felecia!” I waited for her to goof again and say “Bye, Felecia!”, but that didn’t happen. Instead, the caller mentioned her “special bags”. Nene was suddenly at a loss for words. The host said “What bags? Are you holding out on us?” And Nene stammered a bit and quickly dismissed the topic. It was funny.
After Nene’s collection, HSN is having Melissa Gorga’s jewelry line?
It appears that Apollo might have signed a seperate agreement to film. This may be his last oppurtunity to talk to Phaedra. Apollo is not smart at all. I feel like he will not only be getting a divorce, but he won’t be seeing his children either.
Child. Singular.

@ Tamara .Ummmm huh? And lol !!! Mr president isn’t his?
Any evidence of this? At all? Besides like one interview where he primarily spoke about the older boy?
I wish he would just go to prison already. What a pathetic excuse for a man and a horrible, selfish father.
She’s saying that jokingly. Apollo seems to believe the word “child” is like “fish”, both plural and singular. He refers to his “child” in interviews.
AHEM, you can’t just drop that bomb and then leave the room TT. I’d say number 2 is not his, not number 1. Ms. Holier than Thou stinks even more than ever.
Or maybe Apollo thinks “children” is singular while “child” is plural? Like Danielle and “woman”
@Victoria~ Sort of like when Danielle Staub would say “These woman” when referring to the group of women.
Thanks for the tea. I love. The Nene horse mouth, so her.
I am hoping the new cast members on RHOBH will truly be Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson. I have especially followed Eileen for years on The Young & The Restless, and read her novels.
Lisa is all but confirmed. Eileen, I just can’t fathom having the time. She has been filming DOOL and Y&R again recently. BOTH of them. RHOBH pay is not like Atlanta pay.

If Eileen has the famewhore-at-all-costs gene, she’ll sign up, probably drooling as she signs her name to the Bravo contract.
She is an Emmy award winning actress. Who has plenty of work. I don’t see it. Plus I don’t think she and Lisa get along. I would LOVE for them both to be on. I’ve been watching DOOL since I was ten. I just don’t see it.
Lisa yes. But Eileen, not so much. She is way more…. I hate to say she’s a more serious actress, because I adore Lisa, but Eileen is an actress and Lisa has MANY jobs and doesn’t need to be as concerned about her acting career and the damage reality TV can do as Eileen does.
Crap. TIme for RHONJ etc. ttyl.

Ah Tamara, we readers/commenters are rabid examples of a Pavlovian response: Just casually mention that you are researching an upcoming story with lots of tea and boom! we immediately start salivating. Thanks for ferreting out the details–
So, the night ofCynthia’s party was Andy’s big self gratification fifth anniversary party? Didn’t the all act like her showing up was a big surprise to Andy? I wonder…
Yes, And I am not even sure if it was LIVE or not. I think it probably was though.

Tamara did you ask about Claudia Jordan? Just wondering if she will be filming with Kenya since they are friends and she has joined the Rickey Smiley Morning Show. It would have been nice if Kenya would have told Apollo out of respect for your wife I can not speak to you. Most people know that Apollo was lying that had been established last season.
Interesting you should ask that. She was another name I was going to bring up. When I was shot down twice I moved on to other subjects. If Claudia is friends with Kenya (I didn’t know that) the I would suspect that she is a likely candidate as well since she was at the party. It would seem they would try to find someone who likes Kenya to stick up for her. I hate when they have shows where it is 5-6 girls with a common enemy. I don’t mind them coming for Kenya or anyone else as long as it is give and take and not a whole cast bulling one person, like on the Yankee franchise I have forbidden anyone from mentioning. Because if this cast turns out like that one, I won’t even be giving Bravo the free publicity for RHOA anymore. Y’all saw me not do it for the Yankee franchise this season so you know I ain’t gonna play. 🙂
OOOH, TT, we left the Yankee’s before they took us down with them.
Wow. No wonder you are worn out. I don’t know how much you get paid to do this, but whatever it is, it’s not enough. Great stuff. as usual.
It isn’t much now, but it is getting better! I can meet my bills which are very small. And pay for my new fancy rich people diet. I am still living off the kindness of strangers for my head shrinking but I think I am almost to the point of paying for that myself too. I may be able to buy a couch and fix up the kitchen a bit soon. 🙂 It’s all based on page views, so the more I write, the more you read, the more ads that get seen!

PLEASE save for your taxes Tamara! You don’t wan to be rooming with Teresa.
I heard Angie stone has been filming, is there any truth to that?
Yes and no. She was one of the people I asked Source about. She was at the party but is not being tested for a position. According to Source. The other one I thought was FOR SURE was Zelda Pittman who has been at all sorts of things and was at one point rumored to be cast on M2M but Source shot down that guess as well. Those were the two people I looked into. I still think Zelda could happen later. Things change a lot with RHOA in particular.
I thought movies are”filmed” and cheap reality TV is “taped.” Reality TV taping is done by gawky idiots toting cameras on their shoulders.
How are movies filmed?
Google is your friend.
I would say you thought wrong. TT always says “So and so was FILMING” not taped. Taped typically refers to shows like WWHL, Price is Right etc. Regardless, they mean the same damn thing. Scenes were recorded.
Kenya and Apollo and this old tired recycled storyline…..again. Snoozefest! After three years both need to move on.
Thank God for DVr do I can fast forward all of the scenes with nene
Thanks for that delicious and refreshing tea!
I think the Kenya haters were too busy hating Kenya for sitting next to Apollo in Mexico (even though all the men were a few feet away) for it to register that Apollo admitted he lied about her coming on to him. Hope this new scene puts the nonsense to rest.
Two questions. Why does Apollo only refer to the oldest as his son? Why did he give his wife a pinata filled with condoms for her birthday?
The Kenya haters are still going to find Kenya in the wrong somehow. They can’t let it go. They’re not interested in the truth.
Wouldn’t it be grand if Wendy Williams got a hold of that picture of Nene and put it on her show? If we thought she showed her butt about that ugly Birken bag, imagine how she’d lose her mind over that hysterically accurate picture!
Phaedra left because she did not and will not ever acknowledge that she knows that Apollo lied. She wants to continue pretending to be Kenya’s victim. Oh the irony of that sperm donor speech! Ouch.
I agree with you. There is NO way Phaedra did not know what Apollo was up to. As the high powered attorney she is she read Apollo’s criminal complaint and knows the Feds had Apollo over a barrell and he would be convicted and go to prison. So that solidified front her and Apollo portrayed at the reunion against Kenya was BS. Also I don’t understand why most of the bloggers are overlooking Phaedra’s upcoming deposition in the Angela Stanton defamation case. I guess they are waiting until August 3 the deadline imposed by the court wherein Phaedra has to be deposed. Apollo’s case and the Stanton case all seem related to me. However Phaedra’s case is being down played.
They may be scared to comment lest get sued. ALLEDGEDLY!
@Josie, ain’t that the truth. She can’t do anything but run now. But run as she may, there is still Kenya and yet another reunion. You know I never understood why she would do another season of RHOA in the first place considering the stank on this woman. But we all know now it was hubris. But I will enjoy watching her smack those lips while she tries to conjure more fake than we can take, until she’s just a babbling idiot. She ought to try contrition. It’s her only real path to align herself with some semblance of decency. The church woman, fake evangelical, southern belle bull shit crusade just ain’t gonna cut it. Contrition bitch.
I love this post!
I know. I wish I could find that smug clip of hers. They were both lying about her. They showed no remorse. Tried to hurt her in the public eye. They just wanted to try to focus on her n her at times questionable flirting. Her and Apollo are a matxh made in heaven. They belong together. Phaedra is just hiding in tje shadows now because she knows her time is up. Tick tock….tick tock….before they nail her and cart her away too. I’m glad Kenyas name has been vindicated. Shes a flirt and its harmless. What Phaedra and Apollo do is intentional and harmful to themselves and those around them….not to mention Apollos Financial victims and those poor lil boys. Their Momma n Daddy are horrible people.
So true – Phaedra doesn’t want to admit that Kenya had nothing to do with the destruction of her marriage. She can’t face the fact that Apollo lusted after Kenya and there was nothing she could do to stop him. So why blame him when you can blame the “other woman” – only there isn’t an “other woman” to blame and save face.
I hope you found some wine hun and thanks for all that you do 😉
Thanks for reading Melody!
It may take me a while to digest this gallon of tea you just served me. Thanks as always! <3
Well what a welcome surprise. I agree with the Pavlovian reference. I definitely started salivating when the email arrived, in addition to the tunnel vision. Tamara what powers you have to mesmerize. You are the hardest working woman blogger in the universe. And may the universe sprinkle abundance and prosperity upon your countenance.
For what it’s worth, Porsha had an event here in Baton Rouge a couple weekends ago (it was a hot ghetto mess, the Battle of the Bands, but I digress). She did her thing, making sure to say that she was “still on the show,” but of course, she was never going to say to which capacity.
I think Porsha is filming because Andy wants to throw a bone to her fans and because her court date will be part of Kenya’s storyline this season and Bravo wants to film it. Maybe paying Porsha will help them get better scenes.
When is Porsha’s trial date?
I don’t know if one has been set… when I know you will know.
I never hear her in Dishnation or Rickey Smiley ????
Awesome post, love this stuff!
What is a FOH?
Friend Of Housewife.
Tamara, do you have any intel on what role Marlo will have? Will it be the same ole drop in-and-out like before?
I wondered the same. Do you think her and Kenya are continuing with new found kinship? You can never tell with Kenya if it’s calculated, convenience or for real. But it was nice and timely with the whole Marlo/NeNe thing. And then Kenya was able to swoop in and appear somewhat human. SMH…I just never know what’s for real with her, but I always look.
Marlo’s name has never been mentioned. Isn’t she friends with Kenya though, at least for the cameras? I really see them bring in some who is on Kenya’s side at least some of the time.

That’s what I was referring to. Originally, Marlo was NeNe’s friend. Then when that didn’t work out…Kenya swooped in. I wasn’t very clear 🙂 I wonder if Marlo will be a FOH for Kenya…unless Cynthia is going to be weird and have this odd thing with Kenya. Bleh… lol
I guess Kenya could “Pay” someone else to film with her…same place she got Walter from(fake-a-friend)(film-a-friend)? Ok…that was mean. Couldn’t help it though. Must be nicotine withdrawal. I’ll go with that.
I haven’t seen Cynthia’s Ebony spread. I do not know if it was fabulous or small. Whatever, I know she would look great. She is a professional, not a pretender, like many HW’s. Even if Nene was not on the outs with Cynthia, she would have found an excuse to not attend. If she did show up, she would have created some kind of attention seeking scene. She cannot be happy for other’s success because of uncontrolled jealousy. She blames everyone else for being jealous of her as that is how she sees the world.
When Phaedra comes back to reality tv, I have no doubt she will, she will have rewritten history and probably expect sympathy for something, being a southern belle single parent, or something with extra bible thumping. Some idiots will buy her story and pay her money for some kind of crap, maybe cakes with a chisel inside.
BRAVO has lost their collective minds if they thing anyone wants to watch a Season of who is refusing to film with who…especially if they think another Season of NeNe talking AT lapdog Gregg about the other HW’s and fabulous “opportunities”.
I can’t find fault with any of the HW’s for dictating what they will show up for or who they will film with though. Jacquelyn Laurita set the bar when she skipped the Reunion, and the BS has only spiraled downward since.
(I’ve watched DOOL since birth. Loved The Salem Strangler SL the best…also loved Alex Marshal’s priceless scenes with “Steffie”! Good times.)
There seems to be one “wife” refusing to film with another “wife” on all of the franchises each season. Maybe when contract time rolls around, Bravo tells them, “Okay, you get the option to not film with ONE person this season, choose wisely.”
I think along with that option comes, “okay, and you are going to be demoted.” That’s what I think happened to Nene and that’s why I think Bravo is tolerating her pick and choose tactic. No way is Bravo going to let her have her cake and eat it too.
What makes Bravo think we’re all so NeNe obsessed that we’re willing to watch her outside of the housewives set to see her in Vegas and on HSN? I mean, what planet don’t these guys live on. The last person I want to see outside of HW filming is Dolphin Denture Leakes, like seriously Bravo??
Watched 10 minutes of Nene’s HSN show… fugly. On for another hour
I was wrong (I KNOW! I KNOW! ) about the top with the shoulder cut outs. Those were regular sized models and they looked like.. well mooses! lol.

Okay, now that I am eating dinner. I have a second to talk. I’d like to discuss why you would install a fence with an electronic gate in front of your McMansion on a small cul de sac that is not connected to any neighborhood. The driveways in that hood are not long at all. It would seem an unnecessary pain in the ass.

My experience with this comes from attending old money high school and having lots of old money friends. Usually this happens in new money neighborhoods (overall when they’re built) as a show of prestige; or it may happen b/c of a rash of crime/vandalism etc etc. Neither seem to be the case for Phaedra in truth but both seem to fit her in her fantasy land.
FYI Claudia Jordan was named the replacement for Ebony Steele on the Rickey Smiley morning show… so I would put my bet that she will become a regular
