The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap: South Peach

It was only a matter of time. Porsha continued to gush over her new man on Sunday’s episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, but Kandi Burruss had some intel on Dennis that she kept very private from her frenemy.  When Porsha started talking about Dennis during a meeting, she was adamant that she was not all about waiting for a long time to get married.  “We don’t have to wait forever!” Porsha said regarding marriage. “The whole two years, you wait a year, you’re engaged a year — I will do it.” If you watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online , you know that Kandi and Porsha have been at odds for over a year, and while they’ve made a peace treaty, they’re still dragging each other behind the scenes.  It makes sense then that Kandi would insert herself into Porsha’s Dennis drama.  “Is he already talking about marriage?” the Xscape hitmaker quipped.  “Well,” Porsha replied with a stern look. “A little here and there.” “Okay, I know we ain’t been tight, but I’ll just say, don’t always put out how badly you wanna be married,” Kandi said to her former BFF. “Kinda let him put it out there.” “I think the advice that Kandi’s giving me is pretty general,” Porsha said to the Bravo cameras. “She probably would say that to anybody, but thank you.” Kandi later intrigued viewers in a confessional by saying the following: “Keep him under wraps, honey — if you can!” Okay then. Does this mean Dennis cannot be tamed, and will not settle down any time soon? Quite possibly.  In any case, Kandi elaborated further when she FaceTimed her husband to let him know about the trip to Miami.  “After all the girls came back to the hotel, Porsha was telling us about her new boo,” Kandi said. “She’s dating that dude that owns Cru. You know what I’m talking about?” Todd was adamant that he had never been to the place, but his wife delved deeper into the drama.  “I mean, I already knew that she was dating him, but I didn’t wanna say that you know what I mean?” Kandi continued. “I didn’t wanna be like, ‘I got tea on somebody!’ She’s trying to be really hush-hush about it, so I’m just gonna let her tell what she wants to tell in her due time.” That’s when Todd confirmed she needed to stay the hell out of it. Their relationship is not in the best place, but they’re somewhat tolerable towards each other of late.  That’s a start, we guess.  “Yes, I’ve heard things about her new boo,” Kandi dished in a later confessional. “I just know a few different women who have — you know — dated him. Just pace yourself, girl.” Elsewhere, NeNe Leakes started to get back to work following Gregg’s cancer diagnosis.  Cynthia, Kandi, Eva, and Marlo all decided it was a good idea to visit NeNe in Miami to support her, but when they arrived, Gregg was open and honest.  He was struggling to eat and hadn’t been able to keep anything down for three days. His health continued to deteriorate at the opening of NeNe’s boutique, but the ladies were on hand to help him through it.  What are your thoughts on all the latest action?

Claire Foy Reveals That Lakeith Stanfield Didn’t Want To Be Her Friend | Extra Butter

Read the rest here:

On this episode of Extra Butter with Xilla Valentine , I head out to Rome, Italy to sit down with my girl Claire Foy to check out her new movie The Girl In The Spider’s Web . In this film, she plays the role of Lisbeth Salander who has to steal a computer program that can access codes for nuclear weapons worldwide from Lakeith Stanfield who plays Alona Casales. When the stakes are this high the NSA is bound to be on the case, so they track the activity all the way to Stockholm. Things go off the wall when Russian thugs take Lisbeth’s laptop and kidnap a math whiz who can actually make the program work. This is when Lisbeth gets the help of and an unlikely ally to try to save the boy and recover the codes to avert disaster. One of the highlights of the film is the great acting by Lakeith and Claire, that director Fede Alveres explains their chemistry was beautiful to watch develop saying, “They are apart for a long time, but a big part of the story is Lakeith going after her and you can’t wait for him to get to her to see what’s going to happen because both of them are very capable at what they do. I think the audience never expects to see where it goes.” It was great to see these two develop magic. I asked Claire about Lakeith and she was very intrigued by the Atlanta star revealing he left her mesmerized, “I love Lakeith, I can listen to him talk for hours and the man is incredible young which I find terrifying. I love him, I think he so fascinating, he is an amazing actor. I think he is brilliant. We had a couple of nights where I just sat and went what do you think about this and what do you think about this? and Why? and What’s this? Yeah… I love him.” While her love for Lakeith was on one hunnid, his love for her might not have been on the same level. “I tried really hard to become his friend,” Claire explains that things didn’t go her way, adding. “Maybe I made him feel a little uncomfortable and he was like step back a little bit.” Maybe they’ll never be best friends forever, but they do a great job acting in scenes together. The Girl In The Spider’s Web is in theaters November 9th. Check out my interview with Claire Foy and you get to see me riding through the streets of Rome on a Vespa and roaming through the Colosseum then closing this episode out with one of the most beautiful backdrops ever.

Kenya Moore Gives Birth To Baby Girl Brooklyn Doris Daly!!!

Paras Griffin/Getty Images Kenya Moore Gives Birth To Daughter Brooklyn Daly Kenya Moore is officially a Mommy! PEOPLE Magazine reports that the former Real Housewives of Atlanta star, 47, gave birth to daughter Brooklyn Doris Daly at 9:39 a.m. ET on Sunday, Nov. 4. The baby girl weighs 5 lbs. and 12 oz. Moore explained the baby’s name for the magazine: “Brooklyn because that’s where we met and fell in love, and Doris after my grandmother who passed away last year and who raised me,” Moore tells PEOPLE. Brooklyn is the first child for Moore and her husband Marc Daly and the couple told the magazine that the new mom is doing well and “Brooklyn is very alert and active.” Moore reportedly conceived baby Brooklyn through in vitro fertilization and gave birth via emergency c-section after testing positive for preeclampsia. Moore blamed the condition for causing her to gain “17 lbs. in ONE week due to severe swelling and water retention, high blood pressure, and excess protein in urine.” We’re glad that both mom and baby are healthy and doing well after that scare! Saturday Kenya posted on Instagram to let the world know that her baby was on the way. “If you want to make God laugh have a plan…” she captioned in the photo that showed her in her hospital bed. “Won’t be long now. Pray for us #babydaly #weloveyou #prayers.” Ironically the new season of “Real Housewives Of Atlanta” airs Sunday night — but Kenya wasn’t expected to be on the show this season! You gotta love the timing here. Kenya announces her pregnancy on the #RHOA season 10 reunion, doesn't come back to film next season, and then gives birth on #RHOA season 11 premiere day. “I give the people what they want, and they always want Moore!” pic.twitter.com/NJHcuqGqWx — Dave Quinn (@NineDaves) November 4, 2018

Halloween Is DAT WAY: The Migos Are Selling Costumes So You Can Dress Up Like Them On Tour

Photo by Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Migos Now Have A Costume For Us Up On Their Website Halloween is very quickly approaching, and we’d all be lying if we said that nobody was going to take their shot as dressing up like at least one of the Migos . Luckily enough for everyone looking to imitate the undeniable drip of the Atlanta rappers this year, the trio is out here helping their fans replicate their style and matching outfits by offering an official costume. Available on their official website , a costume inspired by the one-of-a-kind reflective jumpsuits worn on their currently underway Aubrey and the Three Migos Tour can be purchased for the not-so low price $125. The red suit is made of cotton and features intricate details like the reflective ink and the group’s logo. Here’s the look you’re trying to imitate if you weren’t already familiar: The costumes aren’t exactly a surprise from these hardworking rappers, especially since they have been such a popular costume for Halloween these past few years–especially in different variations, like couples dressing up as Cardi B and Offset. In addition to finishing up their current tour with Drake, they’re also continuing to flood the streets with music, like the people know them to do. Quavo just recently released his first solo project,  Quavo Huncho  which is being followed shortly thereafter by Takeoff’s solo debut  The Last Rocket, which is slated for a Nov. 2 release date. In addition to the trio going their separate ways for some individual projects this year,  Culture III  is expected to drop in early 2019–so no worries, we’re not at the end of the Migos era just yet. Halloween is quickly approaching, so if you’re trying to get your Migos on, you might wanna order that jumpsuit now.

I’m Good Beloved, Enjoy: Rihanna Declines Super Bowl Halftime Show In Support Of Colin Kaepernick

Link:

Source: Anthony Harvey / Getty Rihanna  may have delivered one hell of a halftime performance for Super Bowl XLIII in Atlanta next February but she reportedly declined the offer. Her reason? Her support of  Colin Kaepernick and his fight against racial injustice and police brutality. In regards to the NFL versus Kaepernick, Rihanna is “I’m With Kaep” through and through. “The NFL and CBS really wanted Rihanna to be next year’s performer in Atlanta,” an insider told Us Weekly . “They offered it to her, but she said no because of the kneeling controversy. She doesn’t agree with the NFL’s stance.” RELATED:  Rihanna Named An Ambassador Of Barbados RELATED:  All The Atlanta Based Artists Who Could Have Played Super Bowl LIII Instead Of Maroon 5 Kaepernick has not played in the NFL since the 2016 season and is currently suing the NFL for alleged collusion to keep him out of the league. Since then he’s become the focal point of Nike’s Just Do It campaign as well as a humanitarian award winner for his efforts. Do you think Rihanna did the right thing?
