Bravo Confirms Sheree Whitfield and Shamea Morton as Friends of Real Housewives of Atlanta

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ATLANTA -- Season:8 -- Pictured: (l-r) Tammy McCall, Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey, Kandi Burruss, Porsha Williams, Phaedra Parks Nida, Kim Fields -- (Photo by: Mark Hill/Bravo)
THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ATLANTA — Season:8 — Pictured: (l-r) Tammy McCall, Kenya Moore, Cynthia Bailey, Kandi Burruss, Porsha Williams, Phaedra Parks Nida, Kim Fields — (Photo by: Mark Hill/Bravo)

First of all when I downloaded this photo of the new cast for RHOA season 8 it included the photo descriptor above. Notice anything interesting there ?  They list Tammy McCall (AKA Tammy McCall Browning) as being in the photo. But she is not.  Finally we have confirmation of who “Tammy the dancer who is married to a white guy “is.  What we don’t have is confirmation that she will be on the show. In fact other than this error, there is not a trace of her on the new site. It looks to me like she backed out at the last minute or they decided they didn’t need her.

A quick trip to her online info shows that she is the person in the tennis picture I posted a while back, and she can be seen in this photo in the background. She is the one with the braids. While we may catch glimpses of her, it doesn’t look like they are even going to make her an official FOH like Sheree and Shamea. I’m guessing Shamea got the spot for her shenanigans on the boat.

RHOA Tammy

Below is the official PR where Sheree and Shamea are lumped into the last sentence which indicates their FOH status.

Autumn heats up as season eight of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” premieres Sunday, November 8 at 8pm ET/PT. After months of overcoming numerous hurdles to conceive, Kandi and Todd are ecstatic to welcome their first child together. However, Kandi is faced with juggling the highs and lows of pregnancy coupled with a busy life as a hard-working career woman. (Kandi’s storyline is going to be a “difficult pregnancy”) Ready for her fresh start, Kenya has decided to build the ultimate dream home,( BLIND ITEM REVEALED)  “Moore Manor,” all while continuing her quest for love. (Kenya will be dating a lot and renovating her new house, which is coincidently in the same neighborhood as Chateau Sheree. She’s going to have to pretty much gut the place and start over but it’s in a great location and she got it for a steal!) Meanwhile, Cynthia is on-the-go more than ever, but unsettling rumors surrounding her marriage threaten to cause a strain on her relationship with Peter. ( my sources say the Peter cheating storyline will be the dominant one of the whole season) With Apollo still incarcerated, Phaedra adjusts to life as a single mother while maintaining her successful career, including potentially purchasing her first funeral home. (LOL at potentially buying a funeral home. It seems like from the trailer that she is “dating”)  Embracing a new chapter, Porsha is currently dating a new beau as her business ventures continue to thrive. (LOL “beau” is that what they are calling it now? He did show up in Atlanta to film though. Interesting.) Actress and director Kim Fields joins the ladies this season and although she is new to the mix, she is no stranger to the spotlight. (She looks mortified in every scene and photo she is in.) Fan favorite Shereè Whitfield is back on the scene, while newcomer Shamea Morton joins these feisty Southern ladies for another unforgettable season.  (Clearly FOH with not mention of their own storyline)

But they do both have bios on the Bravo Media site. FYI everyone is listed as “housewife” that doesn’t mean anything.

Shereè Whitfield
Housewife, “The Real Housewives of Atlanta”
Back like she never left, Shereè is a socialite (flat broke with liens on the Chateau and the IRS allegedly coming for her) and resident of Atlanta who effortlessly manages her over-loaded calendar as a single mother to her three children, Kairo, Kaleigh and Tierra.(the fuck? Overloaded calendar?  Kairo has to be senior in high school now and Kaleigh is not much younger) Shereè  is committed to a rigorous daily fitness regimen and maintains her status as a sophisticated woman on the Atlanta social scene.(Dear GAWD. The lies. Do they write these themselves?)  Priding herself on her fashion sense and commitment to living an active and healthy lifestyle, is Shereè revamping her fashion line She by Shereè to focus on lifestyle apparel. (Is that a question? If so, the answer is no. But she will pretend she is on the show.)

Shereè is excited to be starting a new chapter in her life as a single woman and recently relocated while in the process of building a fabulous new house for her family. (Um, she has been single for as long as she has been build that house which is ions. Is it still a new house if it takes ten years to build?)

Shamea Morton
Housewife, “The Real Housewives of Atlanta”
Shamea Morton is an actress and singer who currently works as the Atlanta Hawks in-game host as well as a radio personality for a local station. A Georgia native, Shamea is the youngest of three girls and considers her family to be a very tight knit group. Shamea is currently dating her boyfriend, Gerald, a successful businessman who plans to bring Shamea to visit his village in Kenya before he decides to put a ring on it. (Another African prince? Seriously?)

Shamea loves the social scene Atlanta has to offer and is good friends with Porsha Williams who enjoys having such a fun friend around. (This is all we need to know.)

Bravo also released a ton of pictures that I will post later. One has Duke Williams holding hands with Porsha at an event. Probably, Cynthia’s eyewear event.

If you haven’t seen the trailer yet, you can see it below.

So, barring any changes (which still could happen) it seems that Tammy went right down to the wire before dropping out, or getting nudged out by Shamea.  Looks like we will be seeing Sheree again. And Kim Fields must really need the money  (which is a rumor I the streets here) because this is really beneath her.

Are you looking forward to the new season? Sure seems like there will be lots of catfights.

    Hey TT, great purple pen. I will be reading your recaps and the comments this season. After reading your post it has reaffirmed that I’ve no interest in these women or their (stories) lives.

    There are a thousand black, interesting, educated women in Atlanta, why this tacky group?

      Same here. I don’t think I’ll be watching much this season. It’s all just too much. They’re nudging this show farther away from “Real Housewives of Atlanta” and closer to “Real Ratchet Ass Crazy Hoes of Atlanta.” And it’s not just Atlanta either. I don’t like what I’m seeing in OC or BH lately.

      I guess they’re trying to cater to an audience that likes shows like “Love and Hip Hop” or “Basketball Wives”. You know, girls who look up to someone like Porsha and see her as an example of an enterprising young woman. Shit, now I’m nauseous. No bueno.

      Bravo even took a collection of learned doctors (Married to Medicine) and made them look like a bunch of fish wives. I can’t watch anymore. Gonna rely on TT for the play by play.

      I love Sheree. Where is she living? That last apartment looked like it was in what a white friend called Chambodia i.e. Chamblee where all of the immigrants moved.

    Saying that RHOA is “beneath” anyone is ridiculous. It’s Bravo’s highest rated show AND it’s a job! In 2015, reality is the new comedy/sitcom and these ladies are pretty much playing a role as they would on any prime time TV show. Kim hasn’t worked in a while and this is a popular platform. Secondly, I’d bet Tammy will be added mid-season like Claudia was last year. That may explain the error in Bravo’s press release. They let the cat out of the bag.

      I did not use the word beneath. I said tacky women.
      To compare Atlanta housewife show to a scripted, produced, written, directed sitcom with REAL actors is ridiculous.

      I do agree, they are good to laugh at.

        I know, right? If it had been “beneath” any of us we’d have never been watching all of this time. I can only speak for myself, but allowing Porsha back on, or fucking Sheree for that matter, means that Andy &Co. are into rewarding poor behavior. That alleged “no violence” policy is a sad, shitty joke. Not just Porsha either, but her little hop along Shamea is being rewarded too. It’s ridiculous.

      I would love to see a Kenya/sheree smackdown. But any smackdown with porsha is unfair. She just isn’t too bright and way to violent.

    Tammy is in some of the footage in the trailer, so it definitely seems like they decided that Shamea was a better fit in a larger role,and that they could just water down Tammy’s involvement. I think Tammy will probably wind up playing a Natalie Williams or Mynique Smith type of role (being a focal point or participant for only a few episodes), whereas Sheree and Shamea will be around for most of the season. Add in guest appearances from Mallory and Marlo, and it doesn’t leave much time to invest in Tammy.

    So, super early reunion couch prediction: Kenya, Cynthia, Kim, Sheree v. Porsha, Phaedra, Kandi, Shamea

    I’m still struggling to figure out who were the ones fighting, rolling on the floor in the last scene of the trailer. I only recognised Porsha from her stupid headband and apparently she wasn’t involved in that.

      I saw that too, it appeared to be the trip to Miami but there were talks that the trip was drama free. Porsha and cynthia may have never even had an altercation or did they? Hmm

      I don’t know for sure Brigid. Production really liked her and she made it far. I suspect it had something to do with Porsha and Shamea’s assholery behavior on the boat and Shamea’s melt down after Cynthia defended herself. Some sort of negotiation happened there with Shamea getting an FOH.

      You never know.
