Oh look, Porsha has an announcement to make! You remember the announcement, the one I made here in May? She even used the exact same wording stating on Instagram today, “No more peach for me, but I still love checking in with my girls #Blessed #SomethingMajor #JustHeretoSlay #TeamPorsha” As I said again in June, Porsha and Nene were not given full contracts on “Pick Up Day” at the end of season six. Porsha was being retested and her contract held pending her court charges with Kenya. Nene was being Nene and trying to dictate who she would and would not film with but it seems she reconsidered.
Speaking of Kenya, it looks like this season Phaedra tries to physically assault her with her pocket-book after the topic of Phaedra’s cheating on Apollo is brought up. According to the explosive trailer, Phaedra is accused of sleeping with “Some African Man Named Mr. Chocolate.” Hmmm Mr. Chocolate, Mr. President? Interesting coincidence no? Especially since the streets have been talking all summer long. Oh my! Also they have a clip of Apollo storming through the house screaming at Phaedra about “taking everything from her.” which with a little help from TMZ it sounds like they are going to make look like it happened on the day Apollo didn’t show up for jail. Unfortunately, that did not happen that way. In the clip you can see the Comcast van, just as I told you there to work on the security alarm, which is why the police showed up when Apollo was not even in the state.

If you recall, I mentioned the production issues with Nene and her role this season. It looks like she could hold an “honorary” peach in the opening, perhaps. This is her last season of RHOA by all accounts. She will be shown mostly in Vegas, in the Puerto Rico scenes and in upcoming filming of her rehearsals in NYC. As the trailer shows, Cynthia has done burnt up that friend contract. But did I see Kenya and Nene have a moment? Hmmm Count on Nene to spin this season as her goodbye season because she is just too busy for the show now. #HugePaycut
Kandi and Todd’s mothers will both continue to fight on the show which means sadly, that marriage is not going to last.
And the other big casting change is that since Claudia laid Nene out in Puerto Rico, she managed to snatch Demetria McKinney’s peach! Claudia is full-time housewife now and Demetria is demoted to FOH. Claudia is a little trouble maker making the moves on Kordell this season, or so they make it appear. I swear I don’t ever recall a season with all of this uncertainty over who actually has a peach. Kudos to Claudia.
Kenya and Phaedra go at it and Kenya and Demetria go at it over Roger Bobb who neither one is actually dating.
What are you waiting for? Go watch the clip! Overall, things are playing out just the way I said they would. Huh. Imagine that.
I’ve waited all morning for this post! When I saw Kandi & Porshas post on IG this morning, I thought to myself “Tamara spilled this tea months ago”
I admit I am a brainless twat and Tamara was right all along. I am sorry for my pathetic existence and will be leaving now.
(edited by admin for clarity)
After reading the comments when you first posted about this sweet, sweet tea. You had better be seeing a lot of serious apology’s from several posters, that look like the one above…
I may have helped that one with her wording. 😉

The same people who want her advice on how to be a southern belle. Dear Lord in heaven you should see the Tre huggers tweeting on twitter. It’s amazing the number of grammatical errors they can pack in 140 characters.
People be dumm.

I’m still here diddling myself in anticipation of Tamara’s every post!
Well done on your scoop, Tamara.
So…. daddy Mr. Chocolate> ROFL !~!
Did you notice Nene’s Vegas costume? Her thighs or upper legs are part of the material attached. Just like the shirts you can buy at any beach store with the perfect bikini bodies.
It seems like it will be a very interesting show! I guess Nene will make her exit during the season.
Oh my heavens what is Phaedra wearing !?! Looks like a fishnet body suit of sorts. Helllll nooooooo ! What a lady ,a true southern belle ?!? Oh my !!
doesn’t look like she has been doing her workout video either…i am not hating! my body def isn’t what it used to be after two children either! but you also won’t catch me wearing something like that.
Somewhat like replacing The Pope with Carrot Top.
Which is why I deleted the ridiculous “I read somewhere” comment.

Joan Rivers would be rolling over in her grave to hear that Nene is her replacement.
I wholeheartedly agree.
For clarity, I don’t believe NeNe (or anyone) would be capable of being Joan’s ‘replacement.’ I don’t have a source or inside scoop on Fashion Police. I do have a suspicion on how it’s going to go down.
I guess I’m amused by RHOA because I remember working in the ‘industry’ and having loose ties to a certain male cast member.
The entertainment industry? Todd? Or the industry as in sex industry and it was any other male cast member?
Nene is the only human on the planet that thinks she has a shot at FP.

So stop saying shit that isn’t true! Nene is not going to be on RHOA anymore. I told you she was on limited contract this season that just barely got her another chance because of Zumanity and Cinderella.
She is putting out all kinds of stories now that she is producing shows and taking over Fashion Police and tons of other bullshit.
She’s lost her biggest contract and is planting rumors everywhere that she is blowing up instead of fizzling out.

Just watched. So ridiculous if they try to make that alarm going off look like Apollo didn’t turn himself in and came back to the house. Thank God we have you and the real scoop on that AND all the other fake ass shit too.
seriously… and they expect us to believe he made it to prison in 30 minutes.
TT, I had to come out of lurking to applaud you for the incandescent tea you served about Porsha’s vanishing peach weeks ago…Bravo! (no pun intended)
I like the addition of Claudia Jordan. Last time I saw her on tv , was when she appeared as a contestant on the celebrity apprentice.
T
Phaedra has the major storyline this season!
Holy shit T, you hit the nail on the head with the Bravo frankenbiting the whole Apollo debacle. We bow to you!
Apollo looks so violent in the clip. Phaedra looks really frightened.
I saw the clip and broke my neck getting here to see what TT had to say LOL!
You seem to be right often. I have to give respect where respect is due. Good job Ms. Tamara
Thanks. I’m only as good as my sources.

It’s me again! Lilmissunshine! Trolling….trolling… trolling…
And darling who uses AOL anymore?
I’m disgusted Phaedra still has the balls to flaunt around and try to cover up her dirty doings with this farse of a southern belle act. When is she going to give it up. I hope this is her last season, so she can finally sink her own ship. The “slut” and “whore” remarks are too old.
And I’m curious as to what Nene/Kenya and Kenya/Porsha relationship is looking like. I’m surprised to see them all hanging out so frequently.
Glad Cynthia is not putting up with Nene’s crap. Nene is only getting teary eyed to try and get some screen time.
I still believe bravo filmed that scene long before he went to prison and convinced tmz to report otherwise. I believe NeNe took whatever they offered to keep her peach because image is more important to her than what’s real, and what’s real is she is no longer queen b, but by staying, even for a payout, she thinks viewed will think she’s still running things….I really hope it’s her last season
Oh and her jealousy of Claudia is too obvious
Oh they definitely filmed it before Apollo left. Phaedra left a week before Apollo did with the boys.

Love this site! What I really like about TT is that she doesn’t slant her opinion or become a walking ad for certain people! It is what it is, and seems to me it is always the real deal…
Can’t wait for Nene to not be on at all!
I agree Melissa, this is why I love this site. TT will tell the truth regardless!
Phaedra is always ready to destroy Kenya and all because Apollo made her look worse than she makes herself look, especially in the photo above where her gut is hanging out. How unflattering. Just goes to show you how delusional she is. She thinks she looks good. Hope they don’t make us wait too long for the scene where she takes a swipe at Kenya. Porsha who?
That is one horrible picture of Phaedra, how about a coverup if you are on national tv and you have a little extra going on. Please Phaedra toss the Fedricks of Hollywood pants!!!
I was lost, I must have missed something, then I caught up, WOW, it should be a very interesting season. Cynthia seems to have grown a pair, good for her, finally. Mr. Chocolate, sounds like the name of one if the exotic dancers Phaedra used to represent. Could we please chat about Teresa and Joe?
This season looks like it will be good but I’m already sensing faked scenes. Claudia seems really thirsty and fake just from the clips shown. I mean why in the world would someone like her go for Kordell? Throwing up in my mouth…..yuck!
This is why rhoa is going to jump the shark very soon. When they started the premise was very different than it is now. It was originally following real Atlanta socialities with a story. Now they pull anyone from anywhere who has a product to eventually push and call it a show.
Ok you were right that Porsha has no peach but you did say she would be fired and clearly she’s not. Also honorary peach or not Nene is back and you were adamant that she would not hold a peach.
Clearly someone hasn’t been reading the updates here from production. I’ve updated every step of the way.

I never understand why people cant graciously accept that they were wrong. You updated us every step of the way about the contracts and the bottom line is neither Porsha nor Nene are coming back as full housewives.
On another note, someone should advise Phaedra that Fredericks of Hollywood is for the boudoir and not the beach!
To be fair, it does look like they are going to let Nene hold her last peach. But the large majority of Nene fiming will be with no other housewives. 🙂 Production was not expecting her to get other gigs that would give a storyline.
You know my source said that Andy has been wishy washy all during filming.
We shall see. lol.

The honorary peach thing for Nene will make for a really weird reunion. If she knows it’s over Nene wont hold back but with little interaction with the other women what will she have to discuss? Maybe she and Andy will just verbally spar for an episode. Or they spend part 1 just discussing her fake future ventures.
Things like this…
This is why I only sip my tea here.
With you Ms. T.
Kudos to you!
You nailed it!
Again.
Thanks Polly. I’m lucky to have such good sources. It’s not like I actually read the tea leaves, I just bring them over to y’all. 🙂

Believe it or not, there are first time commenters who think the trailer proves that Apollo was in the house on the day he was supposed to self-surrender. It’s amazing how many people Bravo has fooled.
I believe the people sitting in the cul de sac sending me pictures. LOL.
Those are probably the same people that believe Elvis is alive….
Everything on Bravo is real!
I have a feeling that this season is the end of rhoa as we know it. Bravo should just revamp it as “Frenemies of Atlanta” (bravo has the $ to come up with a better title). STARRING: Kenya, Cynthia, Kandi, Claudia, Demetria, and Marlo. Sorry, no men allowed. That might make for good viewing.
Kudos Tamara for having excellent sources!
Good suggestion Angel, I really like Marlo but also add on Sheree Whitfield and visits from Kim and Porsha and that would be a great show to spin off. Frenemies of Atlanta hehe I would be tuning in every week! Tamara has real TEA, thanks for the updates.
Brava, Tamara! You served T before other bloggers as much as entertained Porsha’s demotion. You remained steadfast through/after BRAVO’s dictum that all cast must film with ALL cast members; no refusals, no effort to exlude one or more others from filming with certain others (IOW no diva shyt, Nene) as other bloggers incorrectly disagreed, and deduced that BRAVO’s dictum was affirmation that Porsha would return in spite of her criminal assault of Kenya.
Great post!
I can confirm Roger Bobb is legit loaded. I’ve had to deal with his assistant. Get this, his assistant has an assistant. There were at least three of them. I’m not sure why he would want to be involved in this foolishness.
I also find it oddly messy that CJ moved here to be on RHOA and the Rickey Smiley morning. Porsha is demoted on RHOA but continues to star on Dish Nation with Rickey Smiley.
Also, NeNe’s celebrity Q score went down the toilet last season due to her showing her ass. If she’s smart, she’ll get back to funny NeNe this season and get it back up so she can get some more TV gigs. She’s getting passed over for Fashion Police because she turned off so many people.
I agree with every point that you asserted, BF, though the single point that you posed about Nene and the Fashion Police, I just can’t. Nene hasn’t a high enough IQ, nor Hollywood or fashion gravitas enough to just merit a seat at FP, let alone Joan’s recently vacated throne.
The candidate must be someone, who not only can hold an extrordinarily warm and special place in America’s heart, but also is one who is keen on fashion, but isn’t afraid to experiment.
Considering that Joan was a trailblazer, It would be a fitting gesture if Joan’s seat would be occupied by one of her contemporaries; one who is following in her footsteps, a working beneficiery of Joan’s great efforts, someone who doesn’t fade into the background, or offer explanations, or an apology after she may have gone a step or two, or three too far, BUT also is oddly likeable, because she does the things she does that offends and/or gets people crazy. Margaret Cho immediately came to mind as I wrote the sentence beore this.
She was never in the running for Fashion Police. lol.

Not a good look for Phaedra. Actually that tacky beach outfit would not be a good look for anyone
Apollo did a shady (but well appreciated move) by revealing Phaedras affair. We all know he was cheating on her too but she has too much pride to admit that so she’ll have to take the heat for infidelity all on her lonesome. Bahaha
Somebody really should tell Phaedra that fishnet is not her friend.
On the topic of Fashion Police am I the only one that assumed the natural progression of the show would be for Melissa Rivers to take on her mother’s role? I know she isn’t a comedian like her mother but she has hosted shows and red carpet events before so she should easily be comfortable on the show. I’m sure she knows her designers too.
When you have to start with …. on the topic of.. you are in the wrong thread. STOP THAT.

Poor, poor pathetic
HyundaiPorsha. I hope her limited role won’t prevent her from sharing the witty insights that I’ve come to love all 9 days a week, 265 days a year.Oh Phaedra! Lord have mercy! Looks like she’s been eating and Eating and EATING her heart out over Apollo. And eating her feelings. And eating all her options. And eating everything else she can get her hands on.
Of course, nothing illustrates the style, class, and grace of a true Southern Belle like fishnet! What a beautiful, demure, not-at-all hooker-like outfit! Very slimming too!
lololololol
Apologies if this has been covered (I sneak gossip on the side at my j-o-b), but how does this work for the HW in terms of their paychecks? Do they get whatever was in the contract just for filming, or does the contract list different amounts if you’re a full HW vs. a “friend of”? And does that mean they don’t get paid until the season is over? So many questions…
Also, I guess Porsha’s new assets weren’t interesting enough to keep her on.
This is such good news. Thank you, thank you!
