This week only THREE of the RHOA posted blogs: Kenya, Claudia and Kandi. I’m actually surprised that Kandi posted at all but now that the housewives have the option of answering questions (which is much easier than writing a blog from scratch) since she has said many times she hates it, mostly because they don’t let her say what she wants to say.
I find it very odd that Nene isn’t blogging especially because she wasn’t on last week’s episode at all, the week before that there was not show, and this weekend there is no show. You would think she would not want her fans to forget about her. Or maybe she does want rating to lag now. She has been busy on the talk shows pretending like she is so over the drama. I finally watched most of her interview on Meredith Vieira the other day. It comes on at 2 am here. It was very odd. That show has changed since the last time I watched it and Meredith seems to be doing a more “serious” interview. Nene was trying to speak the Queen’s English and over enunciating words like she had just come from speech therapy. The interview was about how ratchet all the other women on RHOA and how Nene is pure as the driven snow. Nene talked about her being a white, black girl because of her blonde wigs. She doesn’t care what anyone says she is going to stay blond. Then she told her story about being the victim of domestic violence and a single mother who worked the polls to raise her po churren. So perhaps that is why she is not blogging lately.
Phaedra probably knows this is her last season, and Cynthia has been at fashion week.
So this week, Kandi talks about her marriage to Todd. And Phaedra’s marriage to Apollo. Nary a word about Mama Joyce, thankfully.
Bravotv.com: How did things get so tense with Todd?
KB: As soon as Todd and I got married he had to leave for LA to start production on his show. We went from being together every day to going weeks without seeing each other. It took some time to adjust. Things were tense for a short period of time, but we’re great now. I do regret talking about it on TV. I’m a very open person, but I’m learning that it’s not always a great idea to be an open book when it comes to your marriage.
Bravotv.com: What was going through your mind watching Apollo accuse Phaedra of cheating and then seeing their last interaction before he reported for his sentence?
KB: That was crazy and intense! Phaedra kept her cool. Thank God! Obviously Apollo wasn’t thinking clearly.
That last answer was interesting. Maybe Kandi and Phaedra are close again? I thought Kandi was team Apollo and that caused problems in their friendship? Still I can’t wait till they just recast the show. Then I may tune in again.
I don’t see anything interesting about this show.
I don’t see anything interesting about your comment.

How you doing with this Lent thing?
Oh, SNAP! Words of wisdom, marywanna: Keep stupid on the other side of your keyboard, preferably with your fingers not touching keys 🙂
@marywanna – So why are you reading posts about it?
Ms. Burruss is an enigma and I must admit I’ve never been able to figure her out to any satisfaction. I do think, however, the dog and pony showboat aka the Todd and Kandi marriage will flounder upon the rock of divorce in the not too distant future. The continuous disconnect is quite obvious and telling. Throw the wrench called Momma Joyce into the gearbox and that ship of wedded bliss is adrift, without power to avoid collision and doom.
@captain eel, you are a visionary, to be clear, I agree with you.
Agreed….a rudderless ship…..
Between Scylla and Charybdis.
I think but not quite sure that that toddis bitter because of the way they treated his mother and she is not here but joyce is and kandi is still patronizing her mother. Kandi bought her mother a house down the street so her mother and boyfriend can live happily ever after. I would be bitter also and if I was todd I would run. He’s not happy.
I agree with this. Kandi used to have it together, but now she’s so messy. I think Kandi brings out the worst in Todd. He should have run like hell when he met her mother.
Agreed. They never clearly dealt with the mama Joyce issue.. the fact Todd’s mom died before any of it could be settled will always remain unfinished business in my opinion. There’s something missing in that relationship.
He married her for the cash that much is obvious. She better start spending some more on him or else he will take off as soon as he can. How much more of his dignity can he sell? His wife’s mother called his mother a whore and his father a pimp!! Kandi still didn’t stand up for her supposed man! Shake my damn head. How many of y’all would take that shit? Sorry, but that would have done it for me. That old bitch would have been eating those words from the end of my shoe. Fuck that shit.
Yep. This. Exactly. No marriage is worth that amount of disrespect. I don’t care how much money she makes. If their sexes were reversed, people would be crying abuse and Tyler Perry would be making another Madea movie about it.
I see Kandi completely avoided answering the part of the question about Phaedra cheating. She talked about Phaedra keeping her cool but we see that she loses her cool when Kenya mentions it in an upcoming episode. More physical fighting about to commence….
I think since Todd was a producer or cameraman on the show when he met Kandi, he is acting a bit. They need a storyline, and he is willing to let people think their marriage is on the rocks, but I don’t think so. He knows the humiliation that goes with these shows and is fine with it. JMHO.
I would have agreed with you before his mother passed away….That changed everything.
She should be mad Todd is partying in LA with her money!! It’s better than listening to his constant whine though.
Todd has money, todd just finished producing Love and Hip Hop Divas and another is going to be renewed. He doesn’t need Kandis money.
mamaline47, you’ve been here before under another name.

Like Nene or hate her, the ratings this season are awful in comparison to last..and they keep going down. So all she has to do is say “Lowest ratings of the season when I wasn’t in the episode” and Bravo sees it loud and clear. I know you are a Kenya STAN and think she can do no wrong, but facts are facts.
yawn……
You are 100% correct. NeNe is the Queen. They keep bringing no talent Hos in to try and replace but it never works. These Kendratards won’t admit it but it’s true.
Nah, it’s a collective effort. The entire series is just going downhill and losing interest.
Oh well, I thought RHOA was becoming ‘beneath’ Nene anyway. And if she continues on with all of her opportunities and offers (her words) that she is getting, I don’t know how Bravo will make it, with her being the glue that’s holding the whole thing together. It’s an unpleasant thought, thinking of all of the Atl housewives that will be out of work. Plus she is the diamond in Andy Cohens’ crown. The viewers might need to go to rehab.
That was an lol comment.
Kandi has no clue about being being married. I’m single but know how to compromise. If it’s not all about her she’s unhappy…whether sex, money, business or her mama. She is selfish, childish, insecure, inconsiderate and immature.
So right!! She has no idea how to be in a relationship! She doesn’t know how to coexist without him being constantly up her butt!
I still can’t decipher whether Todd & Kandi’s drama is staged (ie…their storyline) this season or if it’s mostly an honest account into their marriage & life that’s being portrayed….& that includes all of Mama Joyce’s drama from last season too. But, she did admit that she regretted ever having mentioned anything on T.V regarding her marriage which leads me to lean on the side that there’s possible “Real” trouble in paradise for these two! Kandi still seems to be one of the most likable & down to earth cast members on the show…IMO. Either way it goes, I sincerely hope these lovebirds many more yrs of happiness despite the strain & stresses that both of their chosen occupations (Reality T.V) must be adding to a marriage….especially 1 that’s already at the *beginning* stages. JMHO
If they want to remain married she really needs to learn not to involve her family and friends in their personal life. It’s bad enough she’s her new shaky marriage on the show. But what happens in your bedroom and in personal conversations with your spouse should be left between the two of you. Those words will be used to distance you from one another later if someone gets mad and then there is a feeling of betrayal by the other party.
Kandi allows her mother and her friends to disrespect her husband, add the death of his mother and the unresolved messiness, Kandi’s lack of empathy, and her inability to acknowledge then confront an issue and you have divorce court in their future. I don’t blame Todd, when my mom died, my bs tolerance level went to zero.
