It’s panic attack Tuesday at Tamara Tattles Media today as we are preparing for the Thanksgiving holidays. So I was very late to the office today. Pretty much every email I read so far is completely bizarre news. I’ll try to get to as much of it as I can, but Phaedra’s newest claims are just ridiculous.
I think Phaedra has literally come unglued since being fired from RHOA. I am dead serious when I say I think she is having some sort of mental health breakdown and someone needs to get her some help.
Recently, she was pretending that she was dating Shemar Moore, a man she met one time on a talk show months ago. She was publicly humiliated when Shemar Moore had to make a statement that he is in fact not dating her, she’s not his type, and he only met her once while drunk filming WWHL. Seemingly unbothered, Phaedra has been traveling and having people take bizarre photos of her.
Now she has sold a story to US Magazine where she claims she is a Wilhelmina Model. I am not making this up, but Phaedra probably is. I’m going to purple pen this whole sack of crazy.
Stylish: Tell us, what are your goals for modeling?
Parks: I think I’m the face of “yes you can.” I’m a small town girl who has followed her dreams. Yes you can be a mom, yes you can be a lawyer and yes you can be a model. When the opportunity presented itself some people asked me “Why?’ and I said “Why not?” A supermodel started this company and she wanted to give power back to the women and I think I stand for the same things. I have the opportunity to show people that beauty can come in every size, shade, color and age. It’s exciting and an adventure!
There are no words to address this.
Stylish: Tell US about how you feel about representing an under-served market.
Parks: I feel great about being different, in light of what’s going on now, politically … I think women need to be empowered to stand in their truth, to be different, dare to be diverse and stand up in times of controversy. I’m excited for that part.
So, what is it that you are planning to stand up for?

Stylish: What would be your dream campaign?
Parks: Well I would love be the face of skin care brand. I have great skin, I love makeup, but I love to be able to take off the makeup and have beautiful skin. I also think a lot of girls are looking on Instagram for an idealized standard of beauty that requires a lot of makeup. Those are not the faces of what real women look like.
And yet every single photo of you online you are wearing two full inches of makeup.
Stylish: Who are your biggest modelings inspirations?
Parks: Of course [Naomi] Campbell, she is everything, so fierce. Also Nicki Minaj. She’s done such a great job reinventing herself and changing the standards of beauty. And she’s been a big supporter of me.
Oh please elaborate on how Nicki Minaj supports you. We’ll wait. I should also point out that Nicki Minaj actually did recently sign with Wilhelmina. They have a new “celebrity” division where they partner with a handful of major celebrities to represent them with product endorsements. Phaedra clearly things she needs someone to help her with getting contracts with MAC just like Nicki Minaj. She has a very high opinion of herself while living in her imaginary world.
Stylish: How do you feel about showing some skin and really taking it off for the camera?
Parks: I don’t mind baring it all, I have been wearing g-strings and baring it all really every season for seven years. I had two children on national T.V. I love nudity! I’ve brought a lot of exotic entertainers on the show, so I love my body and I’ve got curves. I’m a mother of two children, so I’m not perfect, but I have no problem getting naked.
Yes, I do recall the exotic entertainers, female midgets, RiDICKulous, both come to mind. That background makes you a perfect fit for Wilhelmina. Then there is all the THOTwear you insisted on wearing on all the beach trips. It’s a miracle you hadn’t been signed before now!
Stylish: Have you changed any fitness or beauty routines?
Parks: Well I swim everyday, I love pilates with the reformer and recent events made me tone it up.
You swim every day? We’ve never heard you mention swimming before. Never wanted to near the water on beach vacations beyond an ankle deep frolic with Porsha. Recent events made you tone what up?
Stylish: Do you think wrapping up your divorce led you to get a revenge body?
Parks: Well, a lot of things happened in my personal life. Going through everything was so much stress, but then when it finished it was just effortless. I feel like I turned into Benjamin Button and started aging backwards, I started being happy.
You don’t seem happy. And what was effortless, the photoshopping?
Stylish: How are the businesses?
Parks: Being a mortician is a passion of mine and everything I’m passionate about I just dive right in. This is our peak season actually, the peak season from deaths is from Halloween to around Valentine’s Day, so we’re very busy — people are going to glory pretty regularly. I’m directing a few funerals this weekend. I know it’s morbid, but I love being the final party planner.
Who the hell is “our”? You do not own a funeral home. You are not some sort of freelance mortician. You do not have any funerals this weekend. You have lost your last marble. Did you just type, “people are going to glory pretty regularly?” What is wrong with you?
Does US Magazine fact check any of this before posting a story with a title, that includes the words g-string and funeral??? Does this seem remotely possible to you?
What. The. Actual. Fuck. She has flipped her flapjacks. And, “freelance mortician,” made me laugh in a very macabre way.
Tamara u big ? lol! How much Phaedra owe yo ole hating blogging ass. You mad cause she actually getting a contract you can’t or will never get. ?
Phaedra is that you?
it could be ilana angel hehehe
Ebonics is in the house, so cute.
Had to use Google Translate to read that post…
Also ??? at “Illana Angel” dis!
I agree with EVERY purple pen comment you just made. She has for sure lost her marbles.
Have a wonderful thanksgiving TT. ?
Is it April Fool’s Day, or what? She done lost her mind.
Anyone that hires her as a model (spoiler: that won’t be anyone) should take a look at that pic of her jelly belly hanging out over her bathing costume on the beach a couple seasons back. There’s nothing wrong with being a 5-foot-nothing gnome with rolls of bellyfat, but I can’t imagine a single company that pictures that when choosing the face of their brand.
I wonder if she’s running out of money yet? She doesn’t appear to have any jobssss at all now, and she’s got those two houses to run until she offloads the one she just discounted – I imagine her Bravo money must be disappearing fast.
I guess her political career isn’t working out. Did she ever sell her homes?
Who needs a political career when you can make appearances at Cowboy Drag Shows!

She finally has her house cleaned up and painted and listed

Long time reader but I’ve hardly ever commented. Then again I agree with you on almost everything. Other than a few special cases this whole post and the comments that follow are why I didn’t bother reading anything else about this whole MESS since I saw her announce it on IG! LOL I knew you would tell the real story and also make me laugh audibly alone in my home. Lately I’ve found it hard to trust the media more and more as this world continues to erupt with all this finger pointing and side picking so I try to watch and find the ones I decide to trust haven’t failed me and always has a clear ear to the ground. That’s why you stay at the top of my favorites list. I didn’t mean to sound this sappy but I read and enjoy your site and often the discussions below. I like the company you keep haha. I have cracked up at some of these replies! I’ve been working from home all day and I needed this laugh! Thank you! It’s the ones like TT that we have to depend on now more than ever in a world of fake news and payoffs for killed stories. No matter the subject you call it like you see it. I respect you for that and everything I’ve seen you build over the years. Women need to come together and be real now more than ever and I’ve been really trying to make an effort to uplift the women around me I admire. I’m thankful to have this retreat in the mundane of the everyday grind of life. Again sorry for all the sapp but I figured I’d spread my holiday cheer while I still had some left! Happy Holidays to you and Banjo, TT!!! I hope one day I hear YOU on a podcast!
You are so hilarious Tamara!
Stylish: How do you feel about showing some skin and really taking it off for the camera? – I thought they were still talking about her skin care stuff so I busted out laughing at her answer LOL
She sounds like Sonja Morgan in her delusions. “Yes, I perform an autopsy in the morning, then I age backwards for about an hour – with no makeup on, mind you!, followed by a refreshing 5 mile swim in the ocean.”
Lol…so funny! Don’t forget her seat on the Supreme Court!…Wow
TT, thanks for the tea…xoxo
I could not believe seeing this and was just waiting for TT to. Such a huge lol, hope whatever kind of day your having, no other choice but to find this hilarious.
I just had to look up how to get a contract. First and foremost, required height is 5’8 for females, and Phaedra is 5’1. Hmmm.
Um that picture of her in the hallway of wherever she is looks photoshopped. Or is her waist really that small?
Had Wilehmina commented on whether or not Phaedra is one of their newest clients? Something seems very very off with her these days.
THAT’S what I’m waiting for—-I would absolutely just DIE if Wilhelmina came out and said that they have not offered Phaedra Parks a contract nor do they plan to. Oh please let it happen LOL.
I think I snorked a little reading that! Anything to get her name in the public, even to soliciting interviews with US Weekly.
I’m guessing she called them?
Her leg is clearly airbrushed (likely free of cellulite) in that limo pick
Can someone please close phaderas casket?…
Hahaha…Love it
WTF? There is so much I can say. But I will just say this. If “miss southern bell” is part of the Wilhelmenia Agency then Wilhemenia Cooper must be squirming in her grave. Wilhemenia was all about beauty. She herself was gorge
I’m here for the comments. Most fun I’ve had all day.
Funny, Phaedra is the only one announcing it. Wilhemina isn’t saying a word. Lots of word about new models signing on, though. I was so tempted to Tweet and see what they had to say about it…
Maybe she’s a foot model.
This does put Wilhelmina in an interesting position…Will they just politely let this go, or will they be forced to say, “No, Phaedra doesn’t work for us”?
The delusion runs deep.
What the sam hill hell is tnis woman smoking?!
I’m a gay man, but if I were straight I’d fuck her. Maybe she could make money as a prostitute.
There are straight men that will fuck anything. I think she would be filed under the crazy chick/girlfriend which most men do once and don’t do again.
Freelance mortician. Hahahaha! I’m thankful for Tamara Tattles, Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!
I can’t wait until the modeling agency denies this just as shemar denied dating her.?????????????
So bizzare. I seriously think Andy or whoever over at Bravo can pick out a crazy anywhere. So many of these housewives seem so damn crazy! Your purple pen is hilarious. Pheadra a model and her constant throwing out celebrity names like she is “in” with big stars is just sad. Gosh those poor little boys. With these two as parents!
Ive liked Phaedra.(liked). She was a wild card and appeared to be a goid mom.(what we saw) but truthfully this chick has gone and flipped her dam flipping lid. Her family needs to step up and help her. Because if she is this ratchet in public in print t!!! What the he’ll is she like alone with the boys.?? I mean she is making a real good case for her ex convict (twice) husband to get custody !!
Smarten up girl amd for real get your c4ap together.
Family members, I’m praying that no one will disinherit Phaedra. Help is on the way.
Y’all let’s get our prayer cloths and pray for Sister Phaedra. This is a hot mess and she seems to be going down the rabbit hole rather quickly. Interesting though that Phaedra had so many friends around her when she was friends with Kandi and now I see none of those people around her. Kandi got everything in the divorce, everything!
Parks: Yes, it’s so true, I am indeed a legend in my own mind. Thank you. Thank you so much.
Best thanksgiving gift. I haven’t laughed so hard reading a blog in a long time. Perfection!?
Freelance mortician, hahahaha! Thanks for the laughs.
Of all the weird half businesses she has popped off about (I actually watched her fitness video!), I thought mortician sounded like a good fit. After getting fired, I thought she would make that work, but I guess she’s doing whatever this is…
Too funny! Phaedra swimming is the best! Her behind could be it’s own flotation device, but then , she would be face down in the water!
Love the Purple pen.
Phaedra has been delusional from the very beginning. The only thing she’s truly gifted at is the depth of lies shes spewed for years. I wish she would simply go away. Her mess is exhausting to even read.
she is for sure a Con
what is she stealing the social security numbers off the dead ? that would be the only reason she would be a fly by night mortician .
How is it she can plan a end of life party,when she never planned her own parties,
It is sad when she is trying to get a life and making a fool of herself bet Kandi is laughing her a$$ off.
Pilates with the reformer? WTF? Seriously, WTF?
She doesn’t do Pilates. Not with a body like that.
Plates would be great for her. Those thighs are very large. Just Saying?
Will a Wilhelmina spokesperson Shemar Moore her ??
I wish they would! I’d love to see them refute her statement. I think they will simply not comment upon her claims, but..I’d love to read it if they did!
They usually proudly publicize any new celebrities they sign up, so I expect the silence to be deafening, except for the clamor of Phaedra’s fans as they futilely wait to see her “announcement,” ala Nicki Minaj.
TT I love the way you call her out!! 🙂 I hope she reads this blog and is embarrassed. After the Shemar Moore thing, I figured she would lay low for a long while..but NOPE still spinning those lies!!
When I was on vacation in Puerto Rico many, many years ago I met a gay man who said he worked for Wilhelmina. He told us that the agency hired a lot of models for just one body part; for example: hand models, foot models, nose models. Maybe this is how Phaedra got hired. Shall we guess which body part is her claim to greatness?
I’m gonna go with her ass with the monkeys flying out of it!
When you enter Phaedra in the search field on the Wilhelmina site there are no results. I also searched Nicki. Nicki Minaj came up immediately.
I was signed with Ford Models today.
I am pleased to announced that I am not just the best website owner in the world, but I am also a Michelin chef, a certified yoga instructer, a sumo wrestler, and I climb Mount Everest ever other weekend. My most strenuous activities are jumping in front of any camera I see and trying to get publicity.
I would not be surprised if she has a contract with WILHELMINA for brand marketing but not for modeling as she is trying to make it seem.
She is a joke tho.
