Real Housewives of Atlanta: Another Spin Around The Block

November 27, 2016 by tamaratattles 53 Comments

Contrary to popular belief, I have no direct access to Kenya, though I could have gone to her housewarming.  If I did I would be telling her to run, run, run, from this 29-year-old boy she is with. He has anger issues. He has not consistently treated her well. I am suspicious of her motives.  She is smarter than this and I am hopeful that it is all for the show, and then I see them at Thanksgiving together with Kandi, Todd, and Mama Joyce at the Old Lady Gang restaurant. I’m hoping they are just friends at the moment. Because things get ugly for a second, and perhaps third time this season. It just makes me sad. So This photo that she chose to promote the show… well… it is upsetting.

Anyway, I am terribly late getting started. I have so many thing I need to do before tomorrow afternoon, and when I get freaked out, I freeze up and play scrabble. I’m fairly good at scrabble and have the expert level dude on the ropes right now and may have a score over 400 going on. But first, I need to get to work. I’ve enjoyed being a slacker.  But here we go.

Wait. I am just now hearing Phaedra’s tagline. It’s “You can’t always get what you want. But I can.” Spoken like a future Felon by Bravo.  I mean really. I will never get over Sheree’s accent mark. She has finally figured out the right way it should lean, but it’s still on the same wrong letter.

 

rhoa-cynthia

 

Cynthia

I like seeing Cynthia with Noelle and I am glad she is taking her to LA to look for colleges. I was trending like crazy on Facebook for some reason when I mentioned that I suspect Cynthia will live in LA, perhaps with or near Leon as soon and RHOA is over. This was misinterpreted as CYNTHIA IS LEAVING RHOA!  Something I never said.  I know she just bought a great house on Lake Lanier. But that was a smart investment and a nice little place to get away from it all. I think she will keep it, but primarily live in LA.  I hate that so many folks think Cynthia is “boring.” She is a gorgeous former model doing her thing. This is why we are supposed to be watching the show! Not for the scenes where someone yanks out a chunk of weave or drags a bitch by her real hair across the stage. This is what I watch for.

Anyway, Cynthia as much as says that she wants to live in LA. She’s going to a fashion bazaar to promote her cargo line. I love her line of leather goods. They are VERY overpriced. But I do like them very much. Cynthia is making Noelle the face of Cargo, her leather line and I think that’s a great move for Noelle and also for the brand because it injects a youthfulness that will take the product past the RHOA crowd. Do you see how Cynthia is already working her connections in LA? Because I do. She’s really savvy.

Sheree

ROFLMAO at “Sheree’s condo” I know what apartment she is living in. And I know she has vacated it since filming. The why and the how of why she doesn’t have an apartment anymore is none of my business. But it was certainly not a condo.

OMG, this retelling of the divorce replete with fake photos of maids in uniforms is HYSTERICAL.  The real story is she stole every damn light bulb and light fixture and the kitchen cabinets from her house with Bob.  You must click the source, it was all over the news here. How she can sit up here and claim Bob somehow fucked her over is insane. Bob actually gave her money EARLY so she could buy a house for her and the kidsShe chose to spend that money on an Astin Martin.  Which was eventually repoed by her divorce attorneys in an attempt to recoup their expenses.

Anyway, Sheree tells her kids that her correctional facility if finally ALMOST finished. That’s another lie. She has yet to be granted a certificate of occupancy and was recently fined for not having one.  Do pathological liars like Sheree know they are lying or are they chronically delusional?  These poor kids playing along with the whole Bob story. They know full well Bob is not with Sheree.  Bob was so not the problem in that marriage. Later we get a dinner scene with Bob and Sheree where he apologizes for his affairs. I wish we could have Bob without having to suffer through Sheree.  He’s hilarious and charming. She’s just a terrible person.

Kandi

I’m disappointed in Kandi’s storyline this year. Riley’s deadbeat dad is a very bad storyline. It’s almost as unfortunate as Kandi’s confessional look with the crazy lopsided ponytail.

Let’s ask Brandon Deshazer what he thinks about this.

 

Mama Joyce is lit this season! And I'm here for it lol #RHOA

A post shared by Brandon Deshazer (@brandondeshay) on Nov 20, 2016 at 9:52pm PST

It appears Brandon agrees with Mama Joyce.

Phaedra

I am not fond of my girl Kenya filming all these scenes with the Phuture Phelon By Bravo. I cannot abide Phaedra and her quest to be the next Al Sharpton. Apparently, Phaedra has gone from fake “Southern Belle” which irked me enough to someone who throws laser tag parties. Dear LORD this years script is weaker than that tea y’all find elsewhere.

Dear GOD. What is that white shit Phaedra is wearing in her confessional. I mean new money is just so damn gaudy.

It seems Mal and Lena are on as friends with no peach. Poor Lena, always the bridesmaid never the… Oh Wait.  It looks like I didn’t post about Lena’s wedding but it was quite lovely.

I’m not sure how I feel about Porsha’s elaborate off the shoulder dress. I think I kind of like it. #NoTitties

All during laser tag, Sheree was chasing after Kenya. On Instagram today Kenya said that she wants to make it clear that she loves Mama Joyce. In fact those two seemed to be best pals at Thanksgiving this year. She was not trying to dis Mama Joyce when she shades Sheree in this scene, but the shade was directed to Sheree for literally looking like Mama Joyce in her cheap ass wig.

After laser tag, the girls, including Lena (why did they not give this woman a peach?) talk about Phaedra’s supposed charity for the people in Flint Michigan with no drinking water. Last I checked that was still a huge problem and no one during the presidential campaign mentioned that we live in a country where an entire city has no drinking water. Or that that entire state is suffering. Or mentioning the issues in Detroit at all.  Because we had two really shitty candidates this year. So anyway, this is Phaedra’s storyline for a pop up shop and everyone has something to sell.  Like Sheree for instance with all those extra light fixtures and her t-shirts that never sold the first time and of COURSE her her $5 selfies. 

I can’t even recap the argument between Kenya and Sheree. Sheree is an unarmed opponent in a battle of wits.  In the end, everyone agrees to support Phaedra’s Phoundation.

Cynthia and Leon

Unlike all of the misogynists, I would rather see a show with just Cynthia, Leon, and Noelle. None of these other extra bitches. Just two people co-parenting and maybe getting back together?  These scenes are amazing. I would watch this and not recap it and love it like I do Manzo’d With Children and Don’t Be Tardy  and keep the happy away from this site.  This scene with Cynthia and Leon is EVERYTHING. I want a Leon.

I don’t even want to participate in the whole situation with Block and Kandi as clearly he just wants to be on TV.

Next week: It’s the Democratic National Convention where everyone tries to avoid Phaedra and Porsha.

    TT, I have been thinking the same thing since the very first time I saw Cynthia, Leon and Noelle together. I would love to just mostly see them more than anyone else on the show at this point and I would pop open champagne and make a shouting toast if Leon and Cynthia got back together for good. He seems pretty wonderful, I’ve always like Cynthia and Noelle is adorably sweet.

    I agree about Cynthia. She and Caroline are my favorite Housewives. They are the least fake of the bunch, in my opinion.

    As for the convention, I have had my fill of politics. Probably forever.

    This entire year has been crazy. I feel like I’m living in a “Twilight Zone” episode. I just want it to stop.

    I also love Scrabble! I am not very good but my family always plays it during the holidays and we drink and have fun and laugh. We are impressed when one of us makes a six letter word. We always act like we are going to play by the rules and someone pulls out a dictionary, then we just want to end the game so we can take a smoke break.

    This whole episode just pissed me off. I admit it, I enjoy some of the fights and the creative shade. But there is NOTHING creative about slut shaming. Sheree, your marriage failed, so I don’t think lording that over Kenya is anything to brag about. I haven’t been a fan of Kenya, but Sheree is making me be Team Kenya more and more.

I d vr this so I can fast-forward through most of it, especially Phadra and Porsha. Sheree is unwatchable but I did really enjoy Cynthia and Noelle and Leon. This seems real and it was nice to watch somthing NOT ratchet on this show. Finally!

    Cynthia is my favorite housewife and I think it says a lot her character that she can move on from relationships without leaving scorched earth in her wake. She has gets along with Leon, has remained friends with Russell Simmons after a break up and even says she still cares for Peter. I wish Bravo would do a series of these kinds of housewives instead of the current trend towards viciousness.

    I’m so tired of the name calling, insults between Sheree, and Kenya; it’s not a good look.

    Like seeing Mama Joyce compassion for Kandi when she broke down with frustration, due to Block and his fuckery.

    Love me some Leon! He was so supportive of Cynthia being upset at her marriage to Peter ending in divorce. I may be incorrect; I believe she still loves Peter.

    However, she’s ending the marriage because she could no longer condone his behavior, excuses, rumors of extramarital affairs. Plus Peter always had a money story.

    Depending on the reason Leon and Cynthia originally, decided on a ‘conscious uncoupling; it maybe a nice to explore their present friendship once she heals and is ready to move forward.

    I like Noelle as the new face of Cargo.

      Absolutely Blondesense. The episode where she went to the lawyer and it showed flashbacks from her marriage to Peter it was so obvious to me. Although part may be aging/some weight gain, botox or fillers can noticeably change or morph the shape of your face. I think it may be a combo. She is still gorgeous, though.

    Is it me or were the Los Angeles scenes just filmed better in general, or maybe I’m just attributing that to the fact I liked those scenes much better. I really enjoyed the Cynthia scenes. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again she’s one of my absolute favorite housewives. There’s almost never any real accounting for the objects of our lust, and love so I refuse to judge her decision to choose Peter, but Peter … and I’ll leave it at that.

    I own not only the dress Sherèe wears in her confessional, but also Porsche’s white Bardot dress. Both can be found at ASOS for a very very reasonable price. I’m hoping I has mad mine first because as good as they both looked on me, I can never ever wear them again after two of my least favorite people in the world sullied them.

    Someone in a Facebook group asked why the pictures on the walls were blurred in the scenes at Sheree’s “condo”, and someone told her that it was because of copyright infringements. WTF??? I said that she was probably afraid that art thieves would see them on TV and steal her priceless artwork! HAHA!!! I bet she bought that shit from Costco. She doesn’t have the money to buy real art.

    Funny, while I was watching the scenes with Cynthia, Noel and Leon an odd sensation came over me that I don’t usually associate with Bravo shows. I realized, omw, I am calm. I am not cringing, my stomach isn’t clenching, I am not mortified that someone might walk in and catch me watching this. LOL. It was nice. Very nice. Cynthia is so classy and seeing her away from Nee Nee, with her daughter, promoting something she worked hard for and loved and being sincere was a nice refreshing change.

    Everything else…..OMW. I will say the one funny moment was Kenya’s talking head about the gun from Scarface. Loved that!!!!

I assume she was referencing the Angela Stanton case. ? I wonder if Kenya reads TTs blogs? The stories are so weak this season. I can’t wait until we see the Porsha meltdown.

    I agree that the whole “Block” storyline with Kandi is disappointing. However, I don’t blame Kandi for it. This is a result of a very thirsty baby daddy and his girlfriend. Bravo was quick to eat it up for potential drama and ratings. He is so desperate and pathetic. And now I wonder about this Lena woman because she seems to be in the middle of it. Sorry, but I’ve not seen any scenes so far that make me wonder why Lena didn’t get a peach. That comment must be based on “inside TT information.” Finally, LOVE Cynthia more and more each episode. She handles her business and personal life as a mature woman should. Viewers don’t get to see much of this on reality TV, so it was very much refreshing. I won’t go so far as to say she should reunite with Leon. There is always way more to the story. But I appreciate how she handles the relationship between Leon and Noel! She sees the big picture and is truly focusing on what is best for her daughter.

    I don’t really like Kandi. I just think there is something offputting about her. But I felt her love for her daughter and anger at Block was real. It is very painful to have to watch your child deal with the kind of de facto rejection that Block is putting Riley through.
