Cool

1st,Kandi is a cool songwriter,but i think they should of used Tiny at least shes married.

Ummm….did I miss something? When did Tiny marry TI?

Is she broke like the rest of them?

I dont get it. Housewives that arent married….?

This should be interesting. Now, through my research I learned Kandi and Jermaine were items at one point? Can anyonce confirm? She has beautiful singing voice…I thought she was married, I could be wrong (I thought she was married to someone in the industry). I hope tiny doesn’t get put on…I can barely understand what that chick even saids..lil’rat!

Well, from looking at her, this new Housewife will either be a friend or foe to NeNe.

It’s just something about her that makes me think there will be a LOT of drama when the new series starts.

I have never heard of the group Xscape so I don’t know anything about her other than what I just read in the above article.

All I have to say is WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY.. AInt had a hit since the 90′s and Let Alone a SOLO hit was NEVER!!!!!!!!

Hell the white girl is not married so what does it really matter! I guess y’all forgot about that huh?

aww shux i like kandi..bout to make me sing that verse from Sole song again….

This is sad. Why can’t they find a black woman who is married, educated and successful in ATL! This just feeds into the stereotype that black women are ghetto with babies out of wedlock and don’t value marriage. This is embarrassing!

Kandi is okay as far as “Housewives” go. She is engaged to be married which is more than I can say for Kim or Sheree. And every season of Housewives has someone that is NOT married i.e. Bethany-NY; Jeana-OC. Plus Kandi is a HIT songwriter from what I heard. Songs she wrote have sold over 30+ mil!

@ Why

Because most of the women in ATL who are Married and Educated are too damn stuck up for a show like this and would think it was beneath them.

And more than likely they’d be too old – which would make the show hella boring!

Long Time Reader, First Time Comment. She ruined U and Dat by E40(what u goin do wit this p@#$y!) every time she sang that part it made my blood curl.

Hmmmm…..I don’t believe that T.I. married Tiny. I do believe she is still at “baby-momma” status. LOL….

Kandi’s written songs for some big acts. That’s the smartest way to make money in the music industry. Believe, this chick isn’t going broke anytime soon.

its funnyhowallof the girl groups from the 90s have reality shows/ Taj from SWV is now on Suvivor/ T-BOZ from TLC is on Donald Trump’s show/Now Kandiss is on this one- just thought I would point out that useless information

I’ve always like Kandi and I hope she does a great job
BTW, I live in Atlanta and I’m married

Do we have to be wealthy and dignified to be on the show???

whatever man!

No offense, but I thought E-40 ruin his songs quite well on his own…just sayin

I guess you don’t have to be a “wife” to be a housewife… SMH….

Some folks just don’t want to get married, and that seems to be the case with Tiny and T.I. It’s not what I would want, but to each his own. Yes, they are a little clownish as a couple, but they seem happy and the kids are taken care of.

As for the show, it is what it is. As long as the ratings are high, there is no incentive to make the show “classy and tasteful.”

First of all, to all the haters Kandi wrote hits, do your research. No Scrubs for Destiny’s Child is just one example. I think she was dating or married to the producer Kevin “Sheakspeare” Briggs at one point (don’ know what happened to him tho, he’s MIA). They were a great songwriting team about 7 or 8 yrs ago. and to the person above who stated that they had never heard of Xscape, you must only listen to Gospel or be a white person or something. Go do your homework, they are part of the reason that Atlanta is on the map music-wise.

Sorry Chevy Rider, you need to do your research—”No Scrubs” was written by Kandi for the group TLC, not Destiny’s Child. Get it right BooBoo. She also had a on and off relationship with the late Gerald Levert.

wow, Gerald Levert..and Kandi?? I can’t see that. Not saying its not true, but I can’t see those two coupled up. Anyway, I guess all u need is some money and live in the ATL area to get on the show….

She stays right down the street from me. I’m goona see if I can make a cameo!!!:)

I thought yall said ushers wife was gone be on there what’s up?

Nah, T.I. is never going to marry Tiny.

So 2 outta 5 of the women on RHOAtl are actually wives?

Only Tini could make this show more of a H.A.M., no actually she make it a hot, deformed, fugly, azz mess.

Kandi would be great on the show..she may not have a college degree but she has class and speaks very well…Yes she did have a previous relationship with Gerald Levert and Jd….I think Monica Arnold would have also been a good choice…

Naw..i think it would shatter some ppl’s perceptions of her. That girl is *GHETTO*..she just keeps it under wraps really well.

T.I. is getting ready to go to jail to serve his sentence and even if he gets off, he’s got tooooooooooo many baby mamas out there. They ain’t getting his money. And the most important thing of all: when is the show coming back on? Those other housewife heffa shows —- really stink.

This is a mess — News on Sheree from ajc.com:

Bravo may have to rename this show “The Legal Woes of the Real Housewives of Atlanta.”

Sheree Whitfield recently dismissed an appeal that sought alimony from her ex-husband Bob Whitfield, saying the former NFL player was now broke.

Now Sheree herself is being sued for more than $87,000 by her former legal representative for the divorce, Levine & Smith. The complaint, dated Feb. 2, 2009, and filed at the Superior Court of Fulton County, states that Sheree Whitfield owes $69,343.98 in principal going back to May 10, 2006. Interest on the unpaid amount, based on a monthly interest rate of 1.5%, is $17,832.93 through January 31, 2009, according to the filing.

According to the complaint:

“Defendent’s refusal to pay said debt as agreed constitutes an act of bad faith and has caused the Plaintiff unnecessary trouble and expense, thereby entitling Plaintff to an award of its expenses of litigation, including reasonable attorney’s fees in an amount to be proven by the evidence at trial.”

Eric Snow is a former NBA player.

More:

Steven Montalto, the attorney representing Levine & Smith, said Thursday that the firm has been unable to find Sheree Whitfield in order to serve her the summons and a copy of the complaint.

Since Thursday evening, efforts by the AJC to reach Sheree Whitfield for comment have been unsuccessful.

Mediat******.com has also reported that Whitfield was caught speeding a couple weeks ago and requested a government attorney, claiming no assets. We are still trying to track down the document posted on the Web site.

I agree, Monica Arnold definitely would’ve been a geat candidate for the show. She has alot of positive things going on in her life and career. Then again, BRAVO wants drama, fights, and contraversy instead, so therefore they tend to bypass on positive women.

malibu barbie

It’s all about “TARGETED DEMOGRAPHICS” They (Bravo/The Prducers) realized that the average black woman/hoodrat, would not be able to relate to a group of functional married black women – Hence, the replacement of the first season’s (actual) married ATL house wife, with another “BABY MAMA”. Nowadays it’s the norm for black women to have babies out of wedlock, due to their reluctance, and(or) aversion to all forms of contraceptives. Bravo is just catering to the new black woman demographic. You gotta applaud their genious.

sick of reality shows and stuck up has been or never were hose! UGH

why couldn’t they get someone with some education? Deshawn Snow was annoying, but at least she had a bachelor’s. Education over entertainment!!

how many*

@ J’s auntie
how do you know what another person is going to do? you sound bitter. maybe, you’re reflecting. maybe your man is never going to marry you.

n!

I agree not all E40 songs are great, but let his rhymes make the song not her overachieving vocals … just sayin, i mean, yadddimean. For all those not from the yay area, put some 40water in your life

ATL Housewives are soo ghetto no matter what.

TI & Tiny are NOT married!

This just made it WACK!! Here is some more bourg-ghetto for you.

This is sad. Why can’t they find a black woman who is married, educated and successful in ATL! This just feeds into the stereotype that black women are ghetto with babies out of wedlock and don’t value marriage. This is embarrassing!

*******1000% agree, why don’t they just rename it “The real baby mamas of AtL”

How can you be on a show called HOUSEWIVES and not have the key ingredient… a HUSBAND? or at least a ‘fiance’ or something besides just being a plain ole baby momma, there’s a million of those in Atlanta so what makes Kandi special?

When does that come on?

They should just rename the show “Random Chicks of Atlanta”

Tiny is not married to T.I they have been engaged for a very long time but not married

okay why are they calling this housewivies and ain’t none of these b’s married…..

how the hell are you a unmarried house wife? This show is stupid

The only thing I can say is at least she really is a ATAlien, LOL!!
