Claudia Jordan Spilling The Tea on The Breakfast Club

July 22, 2015 by tamaratattles 49 Comments

 

Claudia spilled a LOT of tea about RHOA on casting this morning on The Breakfast Club.  She lets the cat out of the bag that she broke up with the guy she was dating last week.  Which I found out about a few days ago from word on the street. Claudia has had a rough few weeks.

They talk about the Rickey Smiley show. She admits it was difficult working for Rickey Smiley. Apparently, Rickey banished Claudia from the breakfast table because he didn’t like the way she ate and made her eat alone.  Charlamagne  and the other host keep bringing up very specific rumors about how bad Rickey Smiley is and she is trying to tip toe around it.  It is obvious that Rickey was a jerk, and Claudia felt restricted by being stuck in a role that wasn’t a good fit. She wanted to be free to be funny and she wasn’t. She was told to just read the news. RHOA Claudia  2

Claudia talks about how she was ready to quit RHOA three months ago, but was still under contract. Then when the contract ended and it was pickup letter time she was back wanting to stay. She says the job can be very stressful when there is so much drama, but the check and promotional opportunities are great. And you never know how the next season will roll. She was torn.  Then the whole in and out stuff started.  Claudia is not sure how Bravo feels about her. She wants a talk show. All these damn housewives want a talk show.  This is a great video though, and I am hanging on every word, so I’d totally watch Claudia’s talk show.

Claudia talks about how much the dating scene in Atlanta sucks.  On the positive side, you can have a ton of gay best friends. On the other side, you can’t afford to be too picky with the straight dick. Claudia says what we all know in Atlanta, you have to import.

That is the basic tea from the interview. I recommend you watch all but the last two minutes which is about Charlamagne loving to eat ass. Trust and believe, you can skip that part.  As for RHOA she says she is still in the mix, and things are up in the air.

My NYC source has told me that her visit to True Entertainment yesterday was about RHOA and not a show with her and Demetria. So we are officially in “who the fuck knows what will happen” land again.  I seriously JUST WANT TO KNOW ONE WAY OR THE OTHER!  I bet she does too.

So even with my source saying talks are still ongoing, toward the end of the interview, Claudia says she is going to get her foot surgeries in three weeks. They mocked her for putting it off and she says she has been busy working and was on the show and didn’t have time (there is a long recuperation period). The fact that she feels like she can do it in three weeks which would be during filming concerns me.  I guess she can always reschedule the surgery. ARGGH! I don’t know what to think!

This concludes my daily (sometimes twice daily) obsession with what the fuck Claudia is doing.

    It’s enough to make a grown woman eat an entire tin of sugar! 🙂 I had to google Turkish Delight and, of course, now I want some!
    Claudia, please give our hardworking Lois Lane a heads up when all is decided, will ya? She deserves the scoop!

    Hey TT,

    She was talking about quitting Rickey Smiley three months ago not RHOA because she felt she couldn’t be herself. I just re-listened to it to clairfy.

      Haha Bugsy. I’m surprised you could actually type a statement about Bravo and a smart decision in the same sentence with a straight face. That whole notion is so damn funny, I’d have probably wet my pants laughing while I wrote it.

    I don’t blame her for holding out on foot surgery. Depending on what she is having done; it can be very serious. The doctors always recuperation will be less than it is. I hope she does well. Here’s hoping she’ll come back to RH’s.

    You think the foot surgery could be part of storyline? I’m desperately grasping here. I need rehab…..

      July 22, 2015 at 5:45 pm

      ​I get it, Glow. I am WAY too invested in Claudia’s future. I feel like I am as bad as the Nenetards and Brandiloons. It’s just a TV show. Deep Breaths. It’s just a TV show. 🙂

      And the foot surgery would probably be rescheduled if she comes back because it’s like a wheelchair recovery if you do both feet at once. That would be hard for a single girl to pull off. She may have to do them one by one unless she goes to stay with her mother for recovery of something. I dunno. I just know there are things I need to do medically and can’t work out the logistics by myself.

        I would probably think that the foot surgery could not be done during production for a variety of reasons – she wouldnt be able to jump up at moments notice during a fight, she wouldnt be able to make the cast trip/vacation, and, frankly, its not a pretty kind of surgery, you know?

        I feel like she would go with the foot surgery through filming. I think she would take it in stride and she and Kenya would play it up and joke with each other about it. I could easily see her pulling it off.

    This is precisely why I refuse to get excited about any casting anything until the opening rolls on the first episode and I actually see who’s holding a peach/apple/orange/diamond/whatever (I can’t remember what the Jersey ladies hold. Handcuffs perhaps?). All the flip flopping is too much for me.

    She has star essence. I think she would do well with her own talk show or interview show. By the way, Rickey Smiley sounds like a real ass.

    ​My understanding was that because it’s an early morning show, there was breakfast at the station or maybe everyone stopped along the way at a drive thru and then all ate at the same table before going on air. But Claudia was deemed unworthy of eating with them. Very odd.

    I know for a fact Rickey Smiley is a jackass! I worked for him in Dallas when he first started on air under Steve Harvey’s management company. Doesn’t pay his bills( had to take him to court). He also doesn’t want anyone out shining him with his ugly self. And he’s definitely rude to women especially if you don’t want to have sex with the worm!

    I remember when I saw Claudia on Wendy Williams, she was speaking about her feud with Omarossa on Celebrity Apprentice and Claudia DOMINATED the interview. She didn’t let Wendy interrupt her and she basically took over the segment and spilled TONS of tea on Omarossa. I remember thinking, damn they should cast her on Real Housewives of Atlanta.

    I can’t believe it is even up in the air if she will come back. She has the looks, intellect, snappy and witty comebacks. She is hilarious. Seems like an open book.

    Why is it that we get ridiculous and boring housewives like Heather Dubrow and Kyle Richards who add nothing to their respective shows returning season after season but a woman that hits all the checklists is up in the air? Absurd! Get it together Bravo!

This site search has become a daily task and I can’t wait for my family to be in bed, so I can catch up some juicy tea. Thanks TT for all the comic relief. Since I started hanging in your “company”, I have made major steps in eliminating some negative people out of life without any regrets.
