With the TV cameras rolling, hard not to embellish a bit. Big Bravo fan but this show is painful to watch. Anybody figure out who "Big Poppy" is?

Lisa's business acumen leaves much to be desired.

Lisa is always badmouthing her ex and she snagged a young baller (Ed) after a long marriage to Keith Sweat..and she doesn't even have custody of the kids.
Yeah I'm rolling with you on this. Lisa is a business woman I won't argue that but she's not actually making a living off those businesses. They're projects that give her something to do with her time, seems like to me maybe I'm wrong.

I read somewhere that Shere is being replaced by another woman who is a powerful attorney in Atlanta who is married to an African Prince. They showed her picture and she very petite and pretty. I liked Lisa and Candy. I didn't care for the whole ghetto fab Nene...and her 15 min of fame was shameful--I saw her on ET begging for Justin Timberlake to call her....so sad...... Get it together....Oh and Kim saying she used to be a nurse--okay....now she is no longer with Big Poppa she is dating a woman and she is a switch hitter...get it girl

From what I heard that lady will most likely not take the job. She's a pretty powerful attorney, and she doesn't want to risk her reputation being on that kind of show. While I LOVE RHOA, I don't blame her. The show isn't exactly a 'professional environment.'

Lisa Wu Hartwell = Jack of all trades, master of none.

How about I saw Dwight Eubanks not once, but twice in two different cities in two weeks? I went home over the Christmas Holidays and my high school had a party, and I saw that someone bought Dwight as their guest. I saw him a few weeks later at the Whole Foods in Midtown. I'm not stalking, I swear!

Also, I saw Sheree at the Whole Foods in Sandy Springs last year. I realized it was her, and she could tell I recognized her, but she gave me this ugly look as if I was about to ask for something from her. She isn't THAT famous.

Also, the new season should have MARTA Girl, Blondie from Clermont Lounge and Alexyss lady from those YouTube videos as new cast members too. *drops mic*

Haha - businesses in the city are sick of the "Housewives." Rejected!
Updated! NeNe the Housewife getting divorced? | The Buzz

Incidentally, Buzz has been hearing from various sources that businesses around Atlanta have been declining Bravo’s requests regarding the show. A local pastry shop was approached to do a speciality birthday cake, which was to be delivered more than an hour away from the shop, on a Saturday, and the shop was offered $50 for the trouble. Uh, no thanks.

Also, insiders at an upscale local hotel and a prominent local restaurant chain both told us that Bravo called them, wanting to show up with the “Housewives” cast members and camera crews.
In both cases the request was met with the same response: “Never.”

Oh, I don't think that's the case at all. Until recently Atlanta had 3 major automobile plants and a steel mill. We've still got a major aircraft manufacturing facility. We've got some of the biggest rail yards around and a colossal airport. There's a huge stone quarry a few miles from Five Points. There are vast manufacturing, trucking and distribution facilities all over creation and many would argue they are our bread and butter.

That's all driven by the working class. And there are plenty of working class neighborhoods all over the place. You don't have to look very hard at all to find grit in this town.
