ATTN: This is an independently sourced story EXCLUSIVE to Tamaratattles.com theft of this article will result in bad karma, Ebola virus, and syphilis. Wouldn’t it just be smarter to use a small portion with a clear link to this page as the source?
I managed to get in touch with Source who is in Puerto Rico at the moment. All of the RHOA flew in yesterday for their girls trip for season seven. The weather may be hot but the fighting is even hotter. Already. On day one.
The premise of the trip is that new housewife, Demetria McKinney has a “concert” this week in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Demetria is an actress and singer and has recently released a single, 100, to coincide with her stint on RHOA. That said, I can’t find any publicity online for where exactly Demetria is singing. I admit I didn’t try that hard because it really doesn’t matter. 
Once again I find this piece super hard to write because Source gives me bits and pieces of information that I have to sort of pile up and put together like a puzzle later. And by then things may have changed once again.
Demetria made it through her test shoots to full-time housewives despite things being very iffy during the test shooting process. It seems they decided that Demetria didn’t need to “fit in” because this is expected to be Nene’s last year’s at RHOA. She’s had numerous meltdowns during filming and on twitter. She “can’t wait to be done with these women.” So the fact that Demetria is smart, pretty and abrasive is coming in pretty handy. But it is not winning her any friends with the other ladies. It looks like Kenya and Demetria will be battling it out this season to be HBIC.
The other new housewife is Claudia Jordan. She will not be holding a peach (at least at this point, but to be quite honest the peaches are being passed around like a game of hot potato). For now at least, Claudia will be brought in as Kenya’s friend. Claudia is beautiful and smart and can read someone with the best of them. Source admits that Claudia went in on Nene already on the Puerto Rico trip. It seems a sure thing to make the show. Now Queen in her own mind, Nene is acting up again. It’s only the second day of filming and the fights are glorious. Nene expects new housewives to bow down and kiss the ring and neither Claudia or Demetria are doing that. In fact, it’s just the opposite.
It seems that Cynthia, Kandi, Phaedra and Porsha are background actors this trip. None of their names was even mentioned now that I think about it. Cynthia and Kandi are both homesick already according to their tweets.
Eight crazy housewives on one trip may be a record. It sounds like Scary Island Part II so far…. I’ll keep you updated.
Is Marlo there? There was a picture on her instagram of her in the airport. Idk maybe it’s something else.
I hope so!!
Thanks for the tea, TT. I love reading how Nene is not getting the Queen treatment she thinks she deserves. She has to be turning green over more beautiful girls being hired. The fact that we know who they are even a little bit in their own right is also a plus. Who ever heard of Nene Leakes prior to RHOA? I hope she gets her balls busted. (That comment is for the people that always use feminine references to the men, as if women are the lowest of the low for an insult.)
Theresa G are you listening?
Since Greg allowed himself to be castrated by NeNe long ago, I find your “balls busted” comment quite appropriate.
I appreciate the intent behind your explanation. At least twice a week, on average, I find myself fuming about a sexist derogatory comment made by a male in an authoritative position in either a movie or some TV show which is directed towards some other male who is characteristically underperforming in some manner. Perhaps the most frequently used comment is: “You’re acting like a (little) girl.” There are many variations of this comment, such as: “He’s crying like a little girl.” (In a movie theatre I will immediately hiss to indicate my displeasure.) What if the customary ultimate male put down was instead some racist stereotypical remark, such as: “He’s crying like a N-g-o?” — more than a quiet riot would be brewing. Women need to speak up!
Once a too frequent male guest in my home made the comment: “You need to grow a pair!” I knew that he was referring to balls/scrotum … but I was having none of it and responded: “Grow a pair of what??!!” You must mean a pair of oves (for ovaries) — I’ve been extremely blessed to have those — the most powerful organs in the universe!” He honestly really looked incredibly disgusted and stomped off to find my SO. No lie — he has never used that expression again in my presence.
I
A good comeback to that jerk.
Unfortunately, women use derogatory female references toward men as well. It just recently started irritating me more, after noticing the frequency. I may have done it myself once. We are insulting ourselves.
syd3, I totally agree. While men are often referred to as pussies as a means to indicate how weak they are, that part of our anatomy is able to carry for nine months and then through hours of painful labor than no man would want to endure produce a child. Meanwhile, it someone punches a man between his legs, he will more than likely drop to his knees, clutching his groin and possibly be vomiting his toenails up at the same time. So now which sex is actually the stronger? Lmao
I wonder why Claudia would go in on Nene? I thought Marlo was on the trip too! I hope everyone will come back in one piece.
Oh wow! My first thoughts of this season were that it would be boring due to the fact that Kenya now hangs with Cynthia and she would be paying Porsha dust. But Demetria is really bringing the heat from the sounds of it.
I think adding Claudia to the mix would be a smart move, if she checked Nene then she is the friend that Kenya needs on the show for backup. Kenya needs a strong ally in this group of women, I am already not appreciative of Phaedra and Porsha’s return. Besides, I don’t enjoy the dynamic of a 4 vs. 1 show.
BTW, isn’t Marlo supposedly with them? The same day they posted their plane pics, so did she. Any word on that or..?
*sips*
BTW, did anyone see that pic of Nene, Kandi, Porsha and Phaedra? All I can say is how the mighty have fallen. Nene had Cynthia, Marlo, and a great dynamic (possibly developing friendship) with Kenya. And now she hangs with those three. It’s just sad. And I hope Kenya, Claudia or SOMEONE ends up checking Phaedra’s shady ass whether it be on this trip or the far-away reunion.
Seems to me like Phaedra is hiding behind the bushes and tip-toeing around Kenya now that the tables have turned against her. Kenya can stop pretending she’s above it all and might as well go in on Phaedra after what she put her through..
i cant remeber, didnt they go to puerto rico last year ? rhoa is the only franchise that i will watch compeletly so i cant wait to see nene’s meltdown.
Beverly Hills went to PR last year.
Source did not specifically mention Marlo. I did see the airport shot. Looked like the international terminal. She could be there. That would make NINE crazy assed bitches on the island. Mon Dieu!
And that would also be Marlo, Demetria, Claudia, Kenya and Cynthia against Nene. The only person feeling Nene right now is Porsha because she needs protection from Kenya and Nene needs a new minion. Phaedra and Kandi just hang with themselves Nene and Porsha when they have to…
This is WAY too many people.

They all showed up! That is amazing!
the more the merrier ! the fact that porsha and kenya are on the same trip im already interested : ) also i feel like every scene with phaedra will just be akward because that elephant in the room is way to big to ignore
Nene and Porsha. What a team….it’s dumb and dumber.
Why would Bravo inflict those women on Puerto Rico? The only place the RHO franchise should travel to is Las Vegas. I bet Bali and Montana have no recovered from their visitations. I still remember when the New Jersey bunch descended on Italy, and all the women just wanted to go to “Chanels”. I cringed.
I agree w ISA! Check Phaedra.
I hope Marlo is on the show show. I don’t want her told a peach, but I want her to play the role of Kim D on New Jersey, as pot stirrer.
OMG, what a tard post. “I DON’T WANT HER TO HOLD A PEACH.” Excuse me, I’m a little out of it today.
I don’t want any of the ones with mugshots to hold a peach. Or be on the show at all.

Why is Porsha back???
I wasn’t about to ask for that explanation AGAIN. Claudia is FOH and she was there. I can’t possibly believe they will have seven people holding peaches. Last I heard Porsha was FOH and “being retested.” I think Claudia is supposed to be the new Porsha and Demetria is supposed to be the new Nene. We shall see.

I can possibly see them having seven holding peaches for part of the season if they’ve planning on phasing one or more of them out before the season ends. Remember the last season that Kim was on the show there were seven of them holding peaches, then after she had that tantrum at the restaurant and shoved or hit the camera man she was missing from the credits and the show for the rest of the season.
Kim didn’t shove the cameraman it was Kroy. And I don’t think that was planned. SOURCE who knows everything as it happens continues to report changes.
Apparently, from what I understand Danielle was a full RHOOC in the beginning and then edited down to a FOH at the end. The full RHO? contract is per episode. So if you are noncompliant for some reason during filming, you can lose your orange (in that case). I’ve never heard of so much confusion in the ATL filming though. This one won’t film with that one, now they are all in PR…
Let the peaches fall where they may.

Hey, TT! I have been a witness to Claudia’s shade. About 5 years ago Claudia and Fonsworth Bentley were hosting a party at a club in Lindgergh. My friend had a fashion blog at the time and interviewed her. I was the camera man.
Friend to CJ: Congratulations on all of your success. How are you liking Atlanta?
CJ: I love it here. Being around you Atlanta women makes me feel so skinny.
I was dead. She didn’t even blink and said it with a smile.
Heh. As a fat Atlantan I should be offended. But game recognizes game, and I can’t wait to see her hand Nene her ass all season.
Reports so far are Nene isn’t handling it well. :)

I say I usually end up favoring the underdog and hate gang ups. With this show, I’d love to see every woman go after Nene and Phaedra. Nene has so much attitude she deserves what she has given back to her. I’d like Phaedra to realize people are on to her and not fooled by her ladylike act. She has not hesitated to cut others to the bone. She deserves some verbal uppercuts that we are not fooled about her and her man both being cooks with a double life of living off stolen money.
I agree.

Kim can you fire Sweetie so I can be on your show??? After all I was the one who got you on RHWOA.
You should have said, “And being around you makes us feel so intellectual!”
Seriously, Claudia sounds like a bloody cuntrag.
I really miss Kenya!
Which Kenya do you miss? Invisible boyfriend Kenys? Wants a baby Kenya? Is fake friends with Marlo Kenya? Or I forgot to take my meds Kenya?
Strong and beautiful Kenya?
I just wish Kenya could keep away from the drama. I’ve noticed her opportunities seems minimal compared to the rest of the ladies. Her reputation is almost ruined. They called her whore so many times and trouble maker that I am beginning to believe when people say and put it out there so many times people believe it. And I never would be a person who would think that was true. You would think that Kenya would be invited to judge Miss America or some of the other national pageants.. I am so disappointed in Kandi she would always remain neutral or shall I say professional and film with everyone even if she did not care for the person. But, at that reunion when she let Nene of all people try to turn her against Kenya by saying that Kenya was trying to ruin her friendship with Phaedra
I just could not imagine that Kandi even responded to Nene. Did Kandi caption say my girls or the girls. My first response was when did Nene get to be your girl. I guess Nene will be kind to Phaedra and Kandi this season. Can’t wait to watch.
Kandi films with Kenya. However, Phaedra and Kandi have been friends from the beginning.
Kandi and Cynthia have always been know by production as the ones who will film with anyone. Cynthia won’t this season and Kandi ain’t happy with Nene.

Nene will have a psychotic break and wander off muttering to herself.
She will end up being one of Sonja’s not paid interns. Sonja will change her name to Felicia.
That is hilarious!!!
Love it!! Those RHOA checks must be sweet cause they are willing to suffer through fake friendships for them. It must be torture for nene to pretend to be friends with kandi, fake-dra and poor-sha. It must be torture for fake-dra to worry being called out on her huzzzband and AS lawsuit. But they all came back to lower themselves on all fours cause they need those bravo checks
It sounds like Nene needs a Zoloft cocktail with a Paxil chaser!
Poor Nene, she really let her ego get the best of her. I really liked her in the beginning. I always liked Kenya, I think it’s good she leaves Phaedra alone, why kick someone when they are down? I feel like it’s only a matter of time before Phaedra gets arrested herself…when you lay with dogs… I am surprised they let Porsha come back, my thoughts are Nene wanted her back since she needs a yes person. I really wanted Marlo back… she makes me laugh. I think if she got married they might put her on the show. I know you obviously don’t need to be married but it is weird since this show is supposed to be about housewives. Cynthia, I like her more & more, she is decent. Kandi, I like less & less because of the whole Todd & Mama fiasco. I miss Kim on the show but I can’t see Kroy hanging with the fellas at all. I am excited to see the new girls.
Nene’s ego trip is just sad. I know in each franchise there is an original HW that knows or think that they are the star of the show, but they all were some body before the show and will continue to be fine afterwards, but miss nene I just get speechless sometimes because it’s like nene you were a stripper who married well before the show and once rhoa checks stop coming in what do you have to fall back on ? The new normal ? Glee? Nene’ s attitude is disgusting and I think she is more than a stereotypical loud black woman, she had turned into a parody.
Ok sorry for the rant
Oh don’t be sorry Vanessa, that is why we are here.

I’m liking Kandi less & less cause of the Phaedra fiasco…
Adding to comments about inflicting HW’s on different vacation spots for filming: I wish the ATL team would be sent to Aruba for a rip roaring battleground. They deserve it, but don’t air many beautiful pictures for advertisement. I have resented that island ever since the lack of support, except to the Dutch murderer and his family, in the disappearance of American, Natalie Holloway. I always wished for a travel boycott.
The season before the last one was the best to me. NeNe was funny as hell and cool with everyone. The last season was horrible PR for NeNe. She stopped being cool with The Talls (Cynthia, Marlo and Kenya). To be reduced to Phaedra’s friend is beyond horrible.
I really hoped she would make up with Cynthia and Kenya.
It’s very clear that the addition of Claudia and Demetria was to knock NeNe down a few pegs.
RHOA is still my fave guilty pleasure. Kenya, love you. Just stop the BS drama. Kandi, please no more drama with Joyce or Todd. Phaedra, calling Kenya a whore is tired. NeNe, humble yourself. Cynthia, don’t cry anymore about Peter’s business ventures. Claudia, continue to be the shady lady we know you are. Demetria, still can’t figure out why you would want to be a part of this hot mess.
Last paragraph: RHOA was enjoyable because they didn’t fight each other and was shady yet light hearted. OC, BH, NY and NJ got too dark.
Thanks for the Update…Have you heard when the Celebrity Apprentice is coming on…seems forever ago we hear gossip about Brandi and Kenya
The show usually covers the end of one year and the beginning of another… so late Nov? I knew it at the time I was researching that but I have CRS so….

Unless it has happened already during filming, I can’t believe porsha hasn’t apologized to Kenya yet. She acts as if what she did was right and makes jokes about it on Dish nation. Also demetria is an accomplished actress and singer and has worked with Tyler perry over the years in his play’s. It’s kinda sad how nene says she’s all about women empowerment but isn’t really supportive to none of the successful women on the show (Kandi, Kenya, Demetria, Claudia etc.)
Hang on boys and girls! It’s gonna be a bumpy ride!
OMG!
This season should be so juicy. I almost want it to be aired live, like a TV news interview. Lol
I love the idea of Nene being demolished on this trip. It’s definitely going to push her over the edge, and I hope she doesn’t return due to her finally realizing after two seasons that she’s not the Queen anymore.
I have a feeling Nene will be on an anti bully campaign after this trip. Or have some kick of people need to treat each other more kindly, she’s going to play the victim role.
TT, did you say Scary Island???? *faints at the memory* LMAO!!! Kelly Kelly Kelly!! My goodness that was darn good reality TV!! Thanks for allowing me to recall that trip from Hell!! If all these chicks are in Puerto Rico at the same time, this should be just as juicy as Scary Island….maybe even scarier!! LMAO!!
Nene is NOT bearing up well. Nene could be the new Kelly lol.

Nene thinks she is the sole reason the show is popular and is above everyone else. Why doesn’t the network give her a solo show like they did Kim and see how really popular she is ? I know so many women who stopped watching because of Nene or fast forward through all of her segments. If she has so many projects going on she should be able to fill a season. Kim does nothing for a living and gets ratings
SMDH!!! Shaded production and Andy one too many times for her on good!! Welp…karma is a bitch with a tooth ache and too little shoes on!!! Let the countdown to RHOA begin!! 🙂
I’m looking forward to next season and NeNe getting her comuppance but I can’t stand Claudia Jordan as she is such a HO. No other way to put it but it’s telling that her and Kenya are besties. I thought she’d be the one that the girls would pick on as she’s had affairs with multiple married men and even lived in a house two doors down from a married man she was involved with (he rented the house for her to be closer to him). That said, the chick is certifiable so I can’t wait to see all the new drama.
These shows really are our new soap operas. It’s no wonder some of them are attracting actual soap opera stars.
I’m ready for NeNe to leave
Not a Nene fan anymore, but I do understand if she over the show. The RH shows are now overly scripted where drama and fights are encouraged vs. Fun. If you don’t bring the drama then you are cut.
The fake storylines and people pretending to have money is also so transparent now.
With twitter and the 4th wall being discussed it has gotten crazy.
It is going to hard for them to beat last seasons non stop drama.
I hope it turns out to be a great season with the new HWs taking Nene down.
Tamara no one has mentioned what happened with Porsha’s case did Kenya drop the charges? I know the wheels of justice turns slowly but she should have had her day in court by now. Thanks for the tea.
I haven’t looked into it. But since they appear to be filming together…I assume it is resolved?
I was wondering about the case also. Someone here said Porscha makes jokes about it or Kenys on the radio. She must be in the clear, of course, she is stupid enough to joke about a pending situation. I bet Bravo or legal advisors talked Kenya into dropping the issue. Another reason that idiot has never learned anything. I suspect Porsha’s family has always patted her head and said you are pretty, everything will be okay, you can do anything you want.
LOL at the pic of NeNe with that tear. I want to know where to get those pants Kenya has on in every color. Dayum she is stacked.
Why are they keeping Porsha around? I’m so confused. What will be her storyline besides morphing into the official Ms. Instagram THOT 2014. I guess NeNe needs someone to film with but honestly what do Nene and Porsha really have in common? I’m banking on that being the most scripted “friendship” of the season.
It truly would be ironic if “The Head Doctor” and the stripper comes back this season continually calling Kenya a Whore. There is a saying that goes, “What people say about you; it’s a reflection of how they feel about themselves”. Any woman that feels comfortable spreading her legs for many to see for a quick buck is morally deficient. Their bodies is like an amusement park with any interested party riding to their satisfaction. There is no price tag on God’s temple.
Something tells me the two new girls are replacements for Porsha and Phaedra, and another Housewife will be added in NeNe’s place.
Not doubting your sources, Tamara. But I believe Bravo is not so pleased with Phaedra taking these “breaks” every now and then.
The two new girls might’ve started out as “testers” for NeNe and Porsha, but I believe Bravo has another card in deck.
Phaedra is so tiny! They are are all in one room and still standing. I’m sure it will be a great season.
I watched the taping from my hotel room. They taped until 3 in the morning and they were back later the next day. After taping Kandi allowed her fans to take picture. NeNe walked off the beach while Phaedra and Porsha played in the water and took pictures. The next morning I saw Kenya at breakfast and she was rude.
Thanks Jessica! What were they doing during filming. Was everyone in the shot?
The late night filming had all of them. But the next day it was just NeNe, Kandi, Phaedra and Porsha. There was a shot where there was this tall girl she came in and spoke to Phaedra for about 2 min and walked off. At breakfast Kenyra was with another girl. She was the only one at this resort. The other girls drive here from a near by hotel. It must not have been near/on the beach.
Are you at El Conquistador?

Nene expects these ladies to bow down to her because Kandi, Phaedra and Porsha all bended to her. Even Kenya was trying to kiss her ass by honoring her at the charity event. I am glad these ladies are not treating her like HNIC. I had no intention of watching because of Nene and her better than everyone attitude, she thinks she made the show. If I am giving that show ratings I am further inflating her ego
When people stop watching and the ratings go down, they will take it off the air.
Please don’t take Çlaudia Jordan off. She gives life to everything and everybody. She’s not flirting with anyone’s man and she is beautiful!
