Claudia is really the only one who did a real blog on the Bravo site this week. The rest just half-assed through a few questions and Nene had her tirade on her own site. So this is what we have to talk about today!
Bravotv.com: Did you feel like progress was made at the therapy session?
Claudia Jordan: I do and I don’t. The main people that needed it were not willing participants. One took off because she couldn’t deal with hearing about how her actions affected the rest of the ladies. And the other that stayed, well… she received apology after apology without ever acknowledging any of her own wrong doing. That’s not right at all. How is it that the woman on the receiving end of a physical attack has apologized to her assailant on several occasions, yet she has yet to show any remorse? That’s downright insane to me! At the end of the day, there are lots of situations in this group where one can claim they were “provoked,” and if the response/excuse every single time was physical violence, we’d all be in jail!
I love this new trend of refusing to say the enemies names. 
And the sad thing is in this particular environment I felt that everyone else there was really ready to do the work and participate. So if ever there was a time to drop the ego and do the right thing and apologize simply for the purpose of starting the healing process for the group, then that was the time. Some people are just too stubborn and refuse to humble themselves. That happens when you are babied your entire life — you feel like you can do no wrong. The rest of the ladies (including myself) however have all apologized and taken responsibility for contributing to the discord. But just pay attention to who never apologizes and who always does. I do not think that is because one “group” has been causing all the negativity in the group. But I do think that is because some have an agenda and a vendetta, while the other group is actually trying to make things cool and move on.
OOOH What is Team Beast’s Agenda? Tell us! Tell us!
But on the flip side I will say that therapy was beneficial. In that one session we did get some good guidance from Dr. Jeff, who I would like to apologize to on behalf of the group for how he was mistreated. He came to help us and was insulted, disrespected, and his professionalism was questioned, which he did not deserve. So Dr. Jeff, I am sorry for how you were mistreated. The session did just highlight that some of us are mature and able to speak respectfully to one another, even if we have an issue with them, and some just cannot stand the sight and sound of someone we have decided not to like just because. All in all we did the best we could, and everyone who stayed did seem to really want to get along. And things were definitely better at work after the session. We were cordial and friendly.
Oh so Porsha stopped being a dick at work?
Bravotv.com: Did you and Porsha manage to get back to a better place?
CJ: It seemed that way. But I had made the decision that regardless of whether or not she was going to continue the peace treaty, that I was going to do my part to keep it cool, polite, and cordial. And so far so good.
Again I’d like to thank the fans for all their support and love and enthusiasm for #RHOA! I was in Miami Beach and Miami Gardens with the morning show this past weekend for Jazz in the Gardens, and the love I got from all the fans of the show was next level! I was truly flattered and humbled, and I will never let any of this get to my head and change me. I’m grateful to be a part of this and for all the amazing opportunities that keep sprouting from this.
You’re good enough, you’re smart enough and gosh darn it people like you!
I just wrapped a movie called The Hills that I have a lead role in, which will be out in the fall, as well as another film called Love is Not Enough.
YAY! This is the part where you should start screaming I HAVE ARRIVED! and I’M A RICH BITCH! and…oh wait, you’ve been working steadily in Hollywood. So keep on keeping on!
I’m also working on a product line (to be announced soon) and more calls have been coming in from Hollywood for more great acting roles. I also had a great time with my girls in Miami and ran into a bunch of awesome people doing their thing that love the show too! I feel so rested and at peace. I’m healthy, happy, and appreciative. #ThankYouGod
Healthy, happy and appreciative? I don’t think housewives are allowed to be those things.
Love this girl! Namaste Claudia…Namaste!
Claudia also appeared on HLN and the HLN hosts seemed to really like Claudia. I wouldn’t be shocked if Claudia gets a paying stint on HLN. They have her on quite frequently.
HLN news?
Claudia has a degree in Journalism.
Nene is constantly saying she wants a talk show. If there is anyone out of the group that would be good at doing a talk show it is Claudia. She seems like she could put her ego aside and be interested in guests and do a good job interviewing them, and she has the personality to boot. Opinionated, but not overly opinionated where it becomes obnoxious… She’s sassy, NOT bitchy.
I predict good things for her!
TT, I’m with you on on your predicting good things for Claudia. She just seems to be a well rounded lady in the respect that she really likes to get along with everyone. It’s so refreshing!
Whoops! My reply/comment was meant for @pfffttt. Sorry!!
Claudia is a great addition to RHOA. Love her and what she wrote!
#teamClaudia
Hahahah I love the purple commentary!! Well this is exactly what I thought! That ‘girl’ sat there and complained about who provoked her and who started it!! Girl please you could have risen above it and ended it but you got ratchet! Porsha never apologizes! Nene trained her well!
I think we have a new wordsmith. It appears the self-proclaimed wordsmith Phaedra has been replaced.
Baby, Phaedra is, was, never will be a wordsmith. She is a cunning paralegal and whatever her many other jobs entail. To be so hell bent on slut shaming a woman who you considered doing business with, until they requested a fee is re-donk-u-los. Team Ugly never has any remorse, empathy, or common sense to apologize. Character is built, not bought.
I love this girl!! Beautiful, intelligent, funny, and calls it how it is. She can read like nobody’s business to boot. She’s like the perfect housewife.
Ditto. She’s like a breath of fresh air
(& to top it off she’s from my home town).☺
I agree. Maybe they should give Team Pretty a spin off show, since the Nene fans feel they are the cause of the ratings demise.
Or maybe a show for Kenya and Claudia running around town like Tiny & Shekinah. At least the producers will not have to add subtitles and the boom master won’t go deaf with all the loud fighting
I wonder how Claudia’s legitimate acting career is going to impact Nene with her former acting career. I bet it’s gonna burn her taint! I have a feeling if it comes up on the show the shade is gonna start flying fast and furious.
I think Nene is going to say that she is following in her footsteps. When Kenya appeared on Trumps show, Nene claimed she was only doing the show because Nene did the show. She said next she will be on dancing with the stars, as was very shady and mean spirited. Expect nothing less from Nene
You know nene too well! I predict that she will also conveniently forget that Claudia did celebrity apprentice long before any of the other housewives got into the action.
I’ve always loved Claudia since seeing her on Miss USA pageant. She was so fun.
I’ve seen her walking down the street in NYC a few times before she moved. She’s just so awesome and down to earth. I really hate how easily NeNe called her a whore. Like why should a single woman in her 40’s virtue be based off those who think marrying “piece of men” is some prize.
It’s refreshing to see someone win without making others feel like that now means the others have lost. Yea Claudia!
Awww, Stuart Smalley, I love you too!
I enjoyed this. She is very mature about issues and I believe that she is moving forward from the frivolous behavior of others. I’m also very happy to hear about her new roles. She’s doing very well and I’m proud of her. Looking forward to seeing more of her on RHOA too!
Claudia…well she’s pretty that about it, her time on the show has been lackluster and the only moment she had was when she went at it with Nene, other than that what exactly has she added to the show? Ya are hyping this girl up for what reason I don’t know but to each his own.
I’m fully expecting some smart ass rebuttal for not going with the “crowd” on this post.
Because she is REAL, which is rare on any reality show. That being said, she will probably not be back next season. Real doesn’t sell.
Hmmmm… maybe because some of us want to watch fun, happy scenes, not hateful, mean ones. So if you aren’t entertained enough when people act civilized, I think yeah, you probably would see no value in Claudia.
Porsha is a spoiled brat who was given everything by everyone including teachers who obviously passed her through school because of her name (beliefs like the Underground Railroad was an actual train and underground). Hence why she believes she is owed everything and revert to childlike behaviors when someone requires her to be a woman.
Yes, teachers are notorious for passing students named Williams. SMH. Y’all seem to think Hosea Williams had a GOOD reputation in Atlanta.

That girl is one of those students teachers probably were happy to move along to make room for a student with potential. Guessing she rode the short bus anyway. Something about her ‘family story’ stinks. That mama of hers, those houses with the Aaron Rents furniture and the sister……all rooting for her marriage to Kordell to ‘go shopping on the jet.”
Porsha was ‘getting back into the ministry’ after her divorce, those guest preaching shots were priceless. Guess that boob job and perks from her ‘dates’ put that on the back burner. Porsha is obnoxious, rude and boring, the skanky thing is just a given.
Love Claudia, she’s articulate, intelligent and a working actress. Nene will hate her for those qualities. If only Andy would come to his senses and rid us of those whose names shall not be spoken (love Claudia’s approach in the blog). though TT’s purple pen makes watching all this better than the show. Could we start a petition? Lose Kim Richards, Brandi Glanville on BH, housecleaning on ATL with Porsha, Nene and Phaedra. Keep Eileen and the Lisa’s, reboot Atlanta and have some fun.
Yay! Fun!!!
Tamara, love your purple pen!! I too have taken notice of how the housewives are running with the newest trend that is ” You are so beneath my level and mean so little to me that I cannot be bothered speaking or even writing your trifling a** name”. I noticed it first w/Nene who announced that she would never utter “a certain person’s name again”, Claudia alludes to who she is talking about by asking us to note the differences between two “groups”, I’ve heard Brandi speak of “LVP” and just read Lisa’s last two Bravo blogs where she will only refer to Brandi as BG. This new trend gives way to a small giggle each time I hear Lisa Rinna calls Kim, “Kim Richards”. So, why IS everyone afraid of Kim Richards?
I love Claudia — but “working on a product line?’ NOOOOOOO! We don’t need another HW product line!
Claudia Jordan=class, period. You can tell she is secure in herself and her accomplishments, and doesn’t need to fish for “a-kool-aides from the other women. Meanwhile she acts like a normal person who reacts in kind to other normal people. Some people no matter what age, understand that concept and probably never will, so watching someone like Claudia or reading what she writes, is refreshing.
I’m so fuckin thirsty I wish someone would throw some a-kool-aides my way.
Claudia is refreshing addiction to RHOA. Beauty, brains and class.
Addition not addiction, perhaps Claudia will become a addiction thou.
Sure is a class act and not pretentious at all.
I’m always leery that new Housewives are doing and saying exactly what the fans want them to , but I’m team pretty all the way so whatever.
Claudia is a class act, and I’m sure 2 of the ladies (Nene-Porsha) are gathering as much info as they can tonight to shade Claudia and Kenya in the morning but this time I don’t they’ll succeed. I know Tam will have some reunion tea by the end of the weekend.
I think Claudia described herself perfectly: happy, healthy, and appreciative. Me likey.
Well now we know why NeNe despises her. She’s everything NeNe wants to be.
Cream rises to the top and shit sinks! Sayonara Wig!
Team Pretty and Team Claudia all day!!!
Team Beast! Lololololz. In that case, may I suggest changing Team Pretty’s name to Team Beauty?
Ha ha ha I’m with you.
