THROWBACK TEA: 'LAHH' Star Yandy Smith Reveals Chrissy Lampkin & Her Crew Tried To SNEAK Attack Her Off-Camera!

You’ve seen the on-camera fights and feuds. Now, “Love & Hip Hop” star Yandy Smith is spilling about that one time her co-star Chrissy Lampkin tried to sneak attack her in a hotel! Lordt. Details inside…

From good friends to enemies, fans watched Yandy Smith and Chrissy Lampkin go through a downward spiral of drama on “Love & Hip Hop.”

Before falling out, Yandy and Chrissy were seemingly friends, at the very least, cordial since Yandy was managing Chrissy’s boyfriend/Dipset rapper Jim Jones.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, “LAHH” filming was shut down. In the meantime, VH1 released a never-seen-before behind-the-scenes video that features both Yandy and Chrissy giving commentary on “LAHH” scenes, specifically their confrontation inside a Miami club that went down during Season 2.

The club drama popped off after Yandy stopped working as Jim Jones’ manager in 2011. You’ll recall, Yandy felt Jim was spending too much money on Chrissy and Jim went back and told her. Naturally, Chrissy was pissed and she made sure Yandy knew it.

Tensions boiled over to the point where Chrissy told Yandy she could meet her outside the club to fight. Yandy didn’t want any smoke and continued to sip drinks with friends while Chrissy stood outside waiting for her. By the end of the night, Yandy was escorted to her by a show producer.

When the cameras stopped rolling, the REAL drama popped off!

“So this is what you guys don’t know. This is where the night got interesting,” Yandy said. “Mendeecees [Yandy’s husband] decided to pop up and surprise me. I get a call from him. ‘Yan, why do I see Chrissy here with a bunch of people, Jim here, what’s going on?’ And I said, ‘I don’t know. We just finished shooting. Maybe she’s chillin.'”

Mendeecess relayed the message that Chrissy and her crew were waiting on HER.

“We get halfway to the hotel and my husband says, ‘Don’t even come here because it’s about to be a situation I’m about to handle on my own.’ Now when that man speaks in that tone, I don’t usually listen, but when he speaks in that tone, oh I listened,” she continued.

Oh, and it gets worse…

Yandy said about 20 minutes later, she was told she could go to her hotel room. She gets to the hotel and realized her room key wasn’t working. She said she went downstairs to find out what was the problem and the front desk worker told her that her sister and her friends came by and said she left something in her room. The kicker? Yandy is an only child!

“You know me, I’m an only child. I don’t have no sister. No ma’am! I don’t have no sister trying to get in my room,” she said. “Now could you imagine me coming back to my hotel after taking shots, after partying, to a full-blown attack? Now if that ain’t some sneak — well, you know, the sneak happened the first time with Kim [Kimbella]. So why would I not get sneaked? Yeah, I guess that’s her style. But nah, Mendeecees stayed 10 toes down and was like, it ain’t happening.”

Well damn. Chrissy was trying her damnedest to get to Yandy. And guess what? She doesn’t regret it one bit.

“I don’t regret it! I don’t regret the way I felt about her then or the way I feel about her now,” she said. “It was messy what she did. I don’t expect anything else from her,” Chrissy said.

Sheesh! Take a peek at the clip below:

'Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' Is Coming With A Black Pentecostal First Lady Who Married Her Grandmother's Widower

$

Listen, we don't care exactly which city this is taking place in, since folks are questioning the validity of the show already, but the "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" looks like it's about to be the fall season foolery we need.  Deets inside on Bravo's newest "Real Housewives" franchise and the black Pentecostal First Lady who married her grandmother's widower.

 

Utah is known for being the epicenter of American Mormonism.  So, it's no surprise that religion is main backdrop of the newest "Real Housewives" franchise.  Despite some folks already accusing Bravo of staging the show with women who are actually living in luxurious Park City, it looks like it's going to be worth the watch regardless.

According to the press release, it's about to go from hordes of cold hard cash and hot fashions to swingers accusations, salacious marital problems and more REAL quick.  Here's an excerpt:

Bravo expands the hit franchise and heads to the slopes with the new series “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” launching with a supersized premiere on Wednesday, November 11 from 10:00 – 11:15 pm ET/PT.  The series delves into the undiscovered world of Salt Lake City within an exclusive social circle made up of six successful women who’ve created their own paradise filled with luxury homes, shopping sprees and multi-million-dollar businesses. The series follows the elite and unconventional lives of Lisa Barlow, Mary Cosby, Heather Gay, Meredith Marks, Whitney Rose and Jen Shah, as they navigate a society fueled by religion, beauty, wealth and perfection.

The Mormon church is undeniably engrained in the culture of Salt Lake City, but these women represent a spectrum of religious beliefs ranging from Mormon, Islamic, Jewish and Pentecostal. Here perfection is not an aspiration, it’s a mandate.  With a deep-rooted history, these women share a special bond, but when circles are this tight it’s only a matter of time before beliefs and personalities collide. Whether hitting the slopes, attending parties at Sundance or hosting the city’s elite, these housewives hold themselves and each other to an extremely high standard and never hold back when things go sideways, but lord knows they are always there for each other when they need it most.

Here's the first sneak peek and, it's a lot:

 

 

It's First Lady Mary for us, though.  She's one of two castmates of color, and she's got an interesting familial past.  She inherited her family's Pentecostal church empire, but there was a caveat.  She had to marry her late grandmother's second husband, Robert Cosby Sr., in order for her inheritance to come into fruition.  So, here we are, 20 years and one teenaged son later.

She's a self proclaimed fashionista who loves the good life because, what First Lady doesn't, really? 

Get into her designer fashions (those tithes are stacking up we guess...), her house and her family (well, she hasn't confirmed if this is her husband in the first pic or not, but folks are surely asking):

NeNe Leakes Says She's LEAVING 'RHOA,' But Does She Has Something Else In Store?

The self-proclaimed “Real Housewives of Atlanta” HBIC is calling quits…foreal this time. NeNe Leakes announced she will not be returning for Season 13, but does she have something new coming down the pipeline? Find out inside…

All good things must come to an end – sometimes to make space for something greater.

Earlier this year, there was drama after Wendy Williams announced on her daytime talk show that NeNe Leakes was leaving“Real Housewives of Atlanta.” It snowballed into a whole scandal after NeNe revealed she felt betrayed her "friend" would reveal what she said to her in private via text message.

Well now, it’s official. The self-proclaimed “RHOA” HBIC will not be returning for Season 13.

"There's been a lot of emotions on both sides," NeNe said in a video posted on her YouTube account. "It's been hard and I have made a hard, difficult decision to not be part of Real Housewives of Atlanta season 13."

The reality star – who is one of the show’s original cast mates - said “it wasn't an easy decision” for her to make, but it was time.

"I'm just so happy that I can say that I was part of a genre that opened up a door for Black ensemble reality shows," she said before offering up her gratitude. "I want to thank everybody that has looked up to me over the years. ...I want to thank Bravo for all the memories. ...Thank you to the cast for all of the memories."

Peep her message below:

Did you catch what she said about seeing her fans “REAL soon” at the end? Sounds like she has something up her sleeve. Talk show, perhaps? Time will tell.

It seems NeNe’s departure was amicable as BRAVO released a statement saying she’s always welcomed to come back.

"We wish NeNe all the best in her future endeavors and thank her for sharing her journey for over a decade with the fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. She’s been instrumental since the start and will truly be missed, and maybe one day she’ll hold the peach again," a spokesperson for the network said.

It’s been speculated NeNe was leaving the show before the 13th season. Over the summer there were rumors that she had been fired. However, NeNe said she and the network were still negotiating her contract.

This isn’t the first time NeNe announced she was leaving the show. She chose not to film Season 9 altogether, but copped a peach for Season 10. Similar to this announcement, she told her fans via social media.

"This is so hard for me to type! I cry as I do so! I am so Grateful for all the love and laughs! Thank you so much to everyone that has watched and supported me over the years on this amazing platform! With lots of thoughts and prayer I've decided to step out on faith and not fear #nomoRHOA4me,” she wrote at the time.

After NeNe stormed off the “RHOA” Season 12 digital reunion it was up in the air whether she would be back. And now, we know she will not be on the next season…well, for now.

 

 

Based on her closing comments in her video, it sounds like we’ll be seeing her somewhere in the media world. So, we’ll just have to wait and see.

Black Housewives On ‘RHONY’?! Rumor Has It Bershan Shaw & Alicia Quarles Could Be Joining The Cast

rhonyteaser

Could the “Real Housewives of New York” be adding some melanin to the cast? Possibly. Word on the curb is that two black women – Bershan Shaw& Alicia Quarles - could be joining the franchise. Deets inside…

The “Real Housewives of New York” is currently being shaken up with who’s staying and who isn’t returning before the upcoming 13th season. And it appears there may be some new blood joining the franchise. “RHONY” has not featured a Black housewife ever in the franchise’s 12 seasons, and only one woman of a color - Jules Wainstein in 2016 who is partly Asian - but that could possibly be changing.  Y'all know Bravo is late to the party always when it comes to learning there's black people in cities outside of D.C. and Atlanta.

Word on the curb is that TV personalityAlicia Quarles could be bringing her talents to BRAVO’s “RHONY” franchise. During an interview on Behind The Velvet Rope, she was asked if she was joining franchise. The self-proclaimed fashion lover didn’t confirm she's joining the show, but she didn’t say she wouldn’t be starring on the reality series either. The award-winning journalist said she’s good friends with all of the ladies on the show and left it open about whether or not she’s joining the show.

Check it:

Further fueling rumors, Alicia snapped it up with “RHONY” star LuAnn de Lesseps while out to dinner in the Big Apple last month:

We wouldn't be mad at this.

There's more melanin possibly being added to the show as well: 

 

Motivational speaker Breshan Shaw is also rumored to join the cast. Breshan - who is a two-time cancer survivor - has reportedly been filming scene for the hit BRAVO series. While she may not be an official cast mate, it's rumored she could possibly be a "friend of the show."

Brenshan is no stranger to television after starring on the 2014 OWN reality show, "Love in the City." These days, she's traveling around the world as a motivational speaker, sharing how she survived breast cancer after being diagnosed at the age of 33.

In a caption from a picture of herself posted in March, she wrote, "Last day in New York City. Last meeting. Last time I’m going to live in fear. I got GOD on my side. I’m off to a new beginning. A new me. A new chapter. A new way of thinking. It’s time for me to focus. Get closer to GOD. Get closer to my family. Get closer to finalizing my other stream of income. It’s time to sit down and focus my energy on the things that matter not on the things that don’t. Everyone stay safe and help those in need," she said.

It's up in the air on whether or not fan favorite Leah McSweeney will be returning. Apparently, she's negotiating a new deal to get more money and she's not going to film until she gets her coins.

TMZ reports:

Sources close to the show tell TMZ ... Leah is only being offered a "minuscule" pay raise for the upcoming 13th season of 'RHONY' -- which would be her second -- and she feels disrespected.

We're told the breakout 'Housewife' is holding out for an offer she feels is more deserving, considering what she brought to the table in her debut season ... and she won't return until she gets it. The clock is ticking, though -- the new season's supposed to start shooting in a week or 2.

Our sources say McSweeney made $3k per episode last season, which netted her about $60k, and she feels Bravo is trying to underpay her with a similar offer for Season 13.

There you have it.

Also...

"RHONY" star Elyse Slaine announced she will not be returning for the next season.  She was a "friend" of Ramona's and that ish did not end well.

With Dorinda out and possibly Leah, that's two spots open for some melanin.

RHONY's producers supposedly set out to diversify the cast and it might actually be happening. Will you be watching?

Last night’s episode of the “Real Housewives of Potomac” was EXPLOSIVE…to say the least. Co-stars/former friends Monique Samuels and Candiace Dillard-Bassett got into a physical fight and now we've got everyone's reactions. More inside…

The “Real Housewives of Potomac” fight fans have been waiting for finally aired last night. And whew! It was many things!

Tensions between Monique Samuels and Candiace Dillard-Bassett boiled over and it resulted in the ladies having to be pulled apart by producers.

Check it:

And here’s a behind-the-scenes angel of the fight:

Whew, chile!

Fans noticed Gizelle Bryant seemingly nudged Monique’s shoulder right before the fight popped off and they have been accusing her of starting the fight.

Monique noticed it too while she was live tweeting during last night’s episode:

She also retweeted this:

Ashley Darby said she was "shocked" the ladies were fighting after she returned from the restroom:

Gizelle hasn’t directly addressed the fight, but it’s clear who’s side she’s on:

Co-star Robyn Dixon heard what folks were saying about her involvement in the fight and responded:

Before the fight, Candiace responded to a fan who commented on the brawl:

She also laughed at a joke a fan made about her bundles staying intact:

”RHOP” fans accused Karen Huger of picking sides, but she said that’s not the case:

Newbie Dr. Wendy Osefo also provided commentary about the fight:

Wendy threw shade at Ashley Darby for being on Monique's side:

Ashley responded:

The fight went down back in October 2019 during a dinner party, which resulted in both ladies pressing charges. Candiace filed a complaint against Monique for second-degree assault. Then, Monique popped back with her own suit against Candiance for second-degree assault. A few months later, the Montgomery County State’s Attorney’s Office dismissed the charges against the RHOP stars, so both ladies dodged legal troubles.

Several of the ladies feel like Monique took it too far. Do you agree? Are you #TeamMonique or #TeamCandiace...and why?!

Wendy Williams’ BFF Drags NeNe Leakes For Allegedly Letting French Montana Touch Her Lady Parts + NeNe Pops Off On Wendy & Andy Cohen

It wouldn’t be NeNe Leakes if she didn’t exit with a BANG! And that's exactly what she's doing After the former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star popped off with fighting words, Wendy Williams' friend is DRAGGING the reality star. This all comes after the former "RHOA" star  popped off on Wendy and BRAVO's Andy Cohen following her announcement to leave the popular BRAVO franchise. Everything inside...

Nene Leakes vs. Everybody…again!

After announcing she will NOT be returning for Season 13 of BRAVO’s “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” self-proclaimed HBIC NeNe Leakes is getting a few things off of her chest. And her scandelous reads are aimed at her former “friend” Wendy Williams and BRAVO honcho Andy Cohen.

So, why is NeNe pissed? Well, she wasn’t pleased with the comments the daytime talk show host made about her on a recent virtual episode of “Watch What Happens Live.”

″NeNe is my friend, and I know her as Linnethia, I don't know her as this person on reality TV, just what I watch,″ Wendy said before adding, ″I believe that this is not a truth.″

Wendy noted how NeNe teases about leaving the show only to return.

″NeNe has quit the show several times and you'll have her back,″ she added. ″NeNe likes attention, dramatic attention. I don't know what NeNe's going to be doing for money, I'm not trying to count coins, but the Housewives is that one thing that all the girls use to promote their other stuff."

Wendy has a point there. NeNe has said she was leaving the show several times only to return.

So, what does Wendy think about a NeNe Leakes’ “RHOA” spin-off?

″And what are they gonna do? Is it gonna be Gregg and NeNe, you're gonna give them another reality show? That's boring,″ she said. ″How about it NeNe being a grandmother? That's boring. NeNe and her own kids, that's boring. NeNe trying to figure out Hollywood, that's boring."

Oh, and Wendy’s last name is still Hunter following her divorce from her husband Kevin Hunter, in case you were wondering.

Check it:

The media personality also dished on her love life:

In a YouTube video, NeNe popped off on her former friend Wendy Williams.

″She does Andy Cohen's show and here she sits speaking negatively of my exit and bringing my family into the equation,″ she said. ″Now that's what you not gonna do, Wendy.″

And get this...

The self-proclaimed "RHOA" HBIC admitted she was "forced" out of the franchise. Oh?

″So since I have been forced out of the franchise, then leave my name alone. Let me sit over here and heal in peace, okay?″ she said. ″Leave me alone."

On Twitter, NeNe said she wasn't returning because she was only offered half a season during negotiations.

 

 

″We strictly talking the OG’s. I was the ONLY BLACK OG. My white counter parts were elevated and given full season episodes EVERY season. Each season i was given less & less. Don’t ask me, @ Andy and @ Bravo and ask them why,″ she tweeted.

The OG of "RHOC" Vicki Gunvalson was kcked off, demoted to "friend" and brought back multiple times.  She's fired again, too.

In a series of tweets, NeNe accused Andy of being "racist" and accused Wendy - who has a history of drug abuse - of being on "cocaine." Yikes.

Peep the tweets:

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Both are f their ratings are LOW! Bye QUEENS," she tweeted. "She on cocaine so they should stop using her to talk! They both need my help with their poor ratings. Keep trying me sir and imma let the world know who you really are," she said.

 

 

"I will ALWAYS eat and eat good! Believe that," she continued. "I have ALWAYS believed in multiple streams of income so the leakes are good you ole cocaine head and you ole racist. No one knew you until YOU knew me. Remember I’m ICON. Don’t forget."

The 52-year-old reality star wasn't afraid to "@" the people she was trashing online either:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"They ALWAYS manipulating black women to say negative things about each other while they sit and enjoy us tearing each other down! Remember #BLM Remember #breonnataylor REMEMBER the most racist networks. They gone leave my name outta these shows. Send me your best discrimination attorneys info to booknene@gmail.com ITS WAR. The racist is the master manipulator! They using me for ratings like they have always done."

 

Oh, she's spillinggggggg! Keep pouring, NeNe. We don't know what she has in store, but she def hinted at something big coming down the pipeline after her "RHOA" gig.

It doesn't end there...

Here’s All The Backlash From Castmates After ‘RHOP’ Fight Night – Are They Being Hypocrites?

The dust has cleared after "Real Housewives of Potomac" stars Monique Samuels and Candiace Dillard came to blows in a brutal fight that was captured on camera for the world to see. Now, everyone is chiming in with their opinions causing fans accuse the co-stars of being hypocrits. More inside...

As you know, “Real Housewives of Potomac” turned into Fight Night when tensions between co-stars Monique Samuels, 36, and Candiace Dillard-Bassett, 33, boiled over. Their differences resulted in a full-blown physical fight where producers had to break them up and it has been a trending topic in the Housewives community since it aired.

You can watch it (from several angles) HERE.

The fight went down during a dinner party in October 2019, which resulted in both ladies pressing charges. Candiace filed a complaint against Monique for second-degree assault. Then, Monique popped back with her own suit against Candiace for second-degree assault. A few months later, the Montgomery County State’s Attorney’s Office dismissed the charges against the RHOP stars, so both ladies dodged legal troubles.

Apparently, Monique thought Candiace was spreading rumors about the paternity of her son, Chase, so of course she was ready to rumble.

 

"RHOP" star Karen Huger reminded folks the cast isn't a full representation of black women. Oh, and she also threw shade at Gizelle Bryant over rumors that her ex-husband Jamal Bryant cheated on her and had multiple babies, after she said she couldn't be around Monique to keep her "image" in tact:

Ooop. The Internet was confused too: 

Chile, Gizelle pulled up to Karen's house with her own bodyguard for "protection." During the chit-chat, Monique explained she grabbed Candiace because Candiace threw the wine glass at her first, but the ladies weren't trying to hear that.

More below: 

Monique addressed the fight during an interview with US Weekly where she said her castmates have been trying to get her off the show:

"They met off camera and had a little meeting and I think that it was very strategic, what they decided to do. They looked at this as an opportunity to possibly get me off the show,” Monique explained. “They thought they had that type of power to get me fired. So that was very strategic.”

Accoring to reports, Gizelle and Candiace won’t film with Monique anymore. Meanwhile, Ashley Darby is on Monique's side, so she'll still with her IF she decides to return.

Monique addressed the fight and the aftermath on a recent episode of "Watch What Happens Lives" where shared whether or not she is remorseful about her physical altercation with co-star Candiace Dillard.

"The same day that I finally started feeling the remorse, I sent a text message to one of the producers asking if we could arrange a sit-down with us and our husbands, and minutes later I got the email from her attorney," she explained. "So I had to lawyer up because she lawyered up, and at that moment, she turned it legal. I could not speak to her directly anymore."

Peep her appearance on "WHHL" post-fight:

Will Monique return for another season? That's up in the air even though she hinted that she would not return.

 

"Basketball Wives" star Tami Roman added her two cents:

A mess!

37. I’m so glad to see your ass!! ⁣ ⁣ The past year has tested and gifted me in ways that I couldn’t even conceive of before. ⁣ ⁣ For starters, I started my REVOLT TV journey exactly a year ago with my premiere episode of #SOTC . Truly loved my job for the first time in a long time. ⁣ ⁣ Then I suffered a moderate case of coronavirus in April (thank God I didn’t have to be hospitalized). But I was sick, and it was scary. For the first time in my life, I REALLY contemplated my own mortality. Shit hits different when you legit think you might be in your last days. ⁣ ⁣ Happiness is now my priority. And for the first time, I don’t feel guilty about it. ⁣ Y’all know I’m driven by my God-given purpose: to make this world better for others, especially those that look like me. ⁣ I work non-stop. And it’s been a great distraction to keep me busy enough to not pay that much attention to...me. ⁣ ⁣ How do I really feel? Am I really happy? And if I’m not, what am I prepared to give up in order to claim my happiness?? ⁣ ⁣ Anything you don’t change, you choose. Being sick and then fully recovering, forced clarity around some of my life choices. Painful & necessary clarity. And I’m grateful for it. #GrowingPains⁣ ⁣ Then, I got a call from Diddy’s team inviting me to host and executive produce a new show for and by Black people. Look at God ya’ll. As the world was at a standstill, I was offered the opportunity to help create the show of my dreams. #RevoltBlackNews⁣ ⁣ Mr. Combs & RevoltTV, you have no idea how you in a way, you saved me this year. I’m forever grateful. ⁣ ⁣ So, 37. I’m literally in pursuit of happiness this year. And I’m excited about. I’ve earned it. This year I’m paying extra close attention to how I FEEL. ⁣ ⁣ In every relationship and in every transaction, I must feel two things in order to proceed: Joy & Safety. Do I feel safe with you? Do I feel protected in this business agreement? Do I enjoy the work? Do I enjoy YOU?? ⁣ ⁣ Cheers to another year to do what I love alongside the people I love God Bless⁣ @revolttv @diddy

Right now, Eboni is the host of “REVOLT Black News" and she's also executive producer. The TV host - who earned her law degree at Loyola University New Orleans College of Law – isn’t a slouch when it comes to hosting gigs. She has gained credits from NBA 2K, Fox Sports, Fox News Channel and more.

Eboni – who specialized in family law and civil litigation – released a book titled “Pretty Powerful: Appearance, Substand & Success” in 2017. Earlier this year, she contracted the Coronavirus, but thankfully she beat it and did not have to be hospitalized.

Last month, the rumor mill predicted motivational speaker Breshan Shaw and TV personality Alicia Quarles would be joining the series. That’s one main spot filled. We wonder who will the nab the next one? Will be tuning in to find out?

As Tamar Braxton's WEtv spinoff "Get Ya Life" continues, we're getting more insight into what could have caused such a traumatic breakup. Watch as Tamar's longtime friend accuses David Adefeso of isolating Taar from her loved ones inside.

Tamar's family's accusations of David Adefeso being controlling are starting to be confirmed by Tamar's own show.  In the most recent episode of "Tamar Braxton: Get Ya Life", Tamar's dream specialist, Goli, loses it. Goli has been a close friend of Tamar's for years and helps her analyze her dreams to help her navigate life.

Goli feels like David is using Tamar, something we've heard from other family friends too. Is there some truth to her feelings?! Goli does point out that David's sudden "issue" with her and her presence - which he claims stems from his Christianity - has caused David to talk to her inappropriately, and she's not here for it. Chick went IN

Remember those "controlling vibes" family and friends allegedly have been saying about David after the couple's domestic violence situation?  David still denies everything, but it's clear the two's communication was quite questionable towards the end.

“Well, lovebscott.com can exclusively reveal that the two ladies who allegedly had sex with the male stripper were Porsha Williams and the very engaged Tanya Sam.”

Say what now? The story may hold some weight as Page Six reports the shenanigans went down during "RHOA" star Cynthia Bailey’s bachelorette party. Oh? Season 13 is currently being filmed.

”Cynthia Bailey’s bachelorette party allegedly took a wild turn with some girl-on-girl action and a scandalous hookup between two “Real Housewives of Atlanta” stars and a male stripper, Page Six has learned.”

“There were multiple people that had girl-on-girl,” a source said, adding that the hookups went beyond making out to oral sex in some instances. “They were so drunk.”

”We’re told the cameras captured the alleged hookups in the living room since the cast is currently filming Season 13 of “RHOA.”

“However, as the crew wrapped and some of the women went to bed around 5 a.m., two ladies allegedly went off into a private bedroom with the male stripper hired for the party to continue their steamy rendezvous"

A source said they heard noises coming from the room that sounded like people inside, who allegedly included two cast members and the male stripper, were having sex.

“[I was] hearing all these noises, sex talk and ‘F me harder,'” the source said, adding that at least one other person allegedly heard them getting it on for about an hour. “She said when she thought they were finished, they started back up again.”

Say what, now?

B. Scott's sources said it’s unclear if the material filmed will get aired on BRAVO. The site also made claims that a “RHOA” newbie was also in the mix.

"Does that surprise you? If not, then you may be surprised to hear that there was allegedly some girl-on-girl-on-girl action that went down before Porsha and Tanya made their way into the bedroom with the man.

”Did you catch that extra girl? Newcummer Newcomer LaToya Ali gets an honorable mention for her willingness to swim with the fishes.

”Anyway, the girls thought they were being sneaky when they got their peaches cobbled by hiding from the cameras — but they underestimated the power of the microphones. Production has usable footage, but it’s unclear if it will be featured in the show. We also hear that some of the ladies involved are suggesting possible legal action to stop the footage from airing.

Meanwhile, bride-to-be Cynthia has been basking in #blacklove before she treks down the aisle this weekend:

Cynthia will say “I Do” to her with fiancé Mike Hill at the Governors Towne Club in Acworth, Ga., tomorrow (10/10/2020). Needless to say,NeNe Leakes will NOT be featured on the wedding episodes since she's no longer on the show. However, there are rumors that Cynthia sent NeNe an invitation to the wedding. During a recent interview with EXTRA TV, Cynthia defended having 250 wedding guests at her wedding during the middle of the Coronavirus pandemic.

”To be honest, everything that we’re doing for our wedding, 10/10/20, we would be doing if we had 50 people there. We would still be doing temperature checks, still be enforcing masks and face shields because, at the end of the day, you can get COVID at anytime, regardless of the amount of people you’re around. Everything is still a go,” she said.

We shall see....

 

"RHOP" star Candiace Dillard Bassett doesn't seem to have a probelm with a single women getting down. Maybe she didn't get the memo Tanya is engaged:

The stripper at the center of “strippergate” that has turned into a hot storyline for Porsha Williams and Tanya Sam is speaking out. He claims nothing happened…with HIM. There’s alleged audio of the incident and Porsha says she’s a single woman. Everything inside….

“Real Housewives of Atlanta” stars Porsha Williams and Tanya Sam set the Internet on fire when rumors started circulated that two cast mates were involved in some extracurricular activities. B. Scott sources accused Porsha and Tanya have been accused of dippin’ it and doin’ in in the lady pond with the help of a male stripper in South Carolina while they were celebrating before Cynthia Bailey’s wedding.

Now, the alleged male stripper - named Bolo - is speaking out. He claims he's a professional and did NOT engage in any sexual activity with Porsha or Tanya.

"To whom this may concern. I’m not just a stripper. I’m THE stripper," he said. "I built an entire brand on professionalism, and it don’t just stop here y’all. I got fans, followers and supporters that’s been around for years that can attest to that."

Peep the clip below:

 

There's alleged audio of the alleged sexcapades and its rumored cast mates are trying to stop production from airing it on the upcoming 13th season. Podcaster Denver Sean claims Tanya has jetted to Canada (where she's from) and she's not happy that her questionable antics could possibly be exposed.

It's alleged they were planning a bachelorette afterparty after the cameras went down, but the mics were still on and caught the REAL action. Allegedly. You can listen here.

Tanya is engaged and folks have been dragging her for the sexcapades rumors, but she claims they are NOT true: 

Porsha Williams reacted to the rumors, but she didn't shut them down. All she said was that she's single:

Hmph.

By the way...

"CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story" actress Drew Sidora seems to be joining the cast for the upcoming season. Her possible appearance comes after self-proclaimed "RHOA HBIC" NeNe Leakes confirmed she would NOT be returning for another season.

Season 9 of “Basketball Wives” is back underway after initially getting shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Several of your faves (and your faves to hate) will be returning, so you already know ish is going to get crazy. More inside…

 

”Basketball Wives” fans likely will not get any new episodes this year, but the good news is the show is back in production. It was shut down months ago when the Coronavirus hit, which caused the new season to be put on halt.

Now, the ladies are back to filming. The entire cast hasn’t officially been revealed just yet, but we do know a few of your faves will be returning.

In February, ”BBW” veteran Jackie Christie announced on her Instagram Stories production of the realty series had started back up.

 

 

By the end of March, Los Angeles was shut down due to the pandemic. Now Jackie and the ladies are back at it:

 

 

 

 

”BBW” OG Tami Roman previously said she would not be returning after last season, so she will not be in the mix. However, there are several ladies who are.

Ogom “OG” Chijindu will be making a comeback:

 

 

It’s said Malaysia Pargo and Kristen Scott were spotted being tested for COVID to start filming Season 9.

 

 

Evelyn Lozada will reportedly return as she was spotted filming scenes according to Jasmine Brand sources.

It’ll be interesting to see how they navigate filming since OG is suing Evelyn for defamation.

Also….

 

 

Rumor has it Season 3 star Brittish Williams will be returning. She taped with Jackie for an episode of her ‘The Jackie Christie Podcast.’

It’s likely executive producer Shaunie O’Neal will return. Jennifer Williams is rumored to be returning as well. It’s unclear if Feby Torres or newlywed CeCe Gutierrez will be returning.  CeCe should return just to throw her new marriage in the faces of everybody who was hating on her. Petty times call for petty measures.

Season 8 was insane, so if this upcoming season is anything like the last one, it'll be a drama fest for sure.

The breakup drama between “Love & Marriage: Huntsville” stars Martell& Melody Holt continues. After Melody confirmed her estranged husband got his side chick, Arionne Curry, pregnant – he’s responding. More inside…

”Love & Marriage: Huntsville” stars Martell & Melody Holt are going through IT.

Not too long ago, Melody – who filed for divorce from Martell - hopped on IG Live to confirm her estranged husband is in fact expecting a baby with his alleged mistress, Arionne Curry. Yes, the mistress he infamously called "a peasant" last season.  We've seen the baby registry so it does appear to be a baby on the way.  She has yet to confirm it's Martell's.

A post shared by ARI (@_arionne_) on

 

In the video session (posted below), Melody vented to fans about how her husband’s actions are running her life and alleged he had been begging her to forgive him and take him back. What sparked the video is Martell hopping on Instagram to allude to her being petty when it comes to their kids.  This set her off, and she told everything that's allegedly been happening behind the scenes (that Martell conveniently left out). Hmph.

“You publicly have humiliated me. You have continued to cheat, other people calling me stupid for giving you other chances all this extra stuff and now that I’m walking away from you, you can’t handle it,” she said.

“I left you, I filed for divorce and you told me you had a baby on the way,” she added.”You told me you had a baby on the way and she wasn’t getting rid of it because she’s gotten rid of kids for y’all before and she wasn’t doing it this time. So why are you even bothering me. So I’m asking you now, just leave me alone.”

She also accused him of posting to Instagram certain imagery to concoct a certain image about himself that doesn't really exist.  Since Martell has mostly been posting doting-daddy pics, we assume she's talking about that.

 

Peep Melody's LIVE below:

Martell got wind of her IG Live and hopped in the comments, promising to “put all truths out.”

“Not ashamed…but you are,” he wrote in the comments of her live that has sense been deleted. “Don’t tell just my side, let’s tell yours too, it’s much more interesting.”

Whew, lawd. This situation just keeps getting more toxic by the minute. Earlier this year, the alleged mistress hopped on social media to respond to people calling her “low class” and Martell calling her a “peasant” on the show. Check it:

A MESS!

Martell & Melody were married for 12 years before they decided to call it quits. They tied the knot in July 2008 and have four kids together - with their daughter Malani being born in December 2019. It's alleged Martell has been cheating with Arionne for more than four years. Sheesh.

Melody filed for divorce last summer, citing an “irretrievable breakdown” of her marriage to Martell. They seemingly were trying to work things out on this current season of "Love & Marriage: Huntsville", but clearly, that's no longer the case.

"Real Housewives of Atlanta” fans already know not to expect the self-proclaimed HBIC NeNe Leakes to star in the upcoming 13th season. But, that doesn’t mean the “RHOA” ladies aren’t bringing the drama.

The highly-anticipated trailer for the upcoming season has been released, giving viewers a sneak peek at what’s to come – especially details about that alleged “situation” between Porsha Williams, and engaged Tanya Sam and a male stripper.

"What happens in the dungeon, stays in the dungeon," Kandi Burruss said in the supertease clip.

It’s ALLEGED two “RHOA” stars may have dipped into the lady pond with the help of a male stripper in South Carolina during Cynthia Bailey’s bachelorette party. These Internet streets claim it was Porsha Williams and engaged Tanya Sam indulging in the bachelorette festivities a bit tooooo much.

"Turn off the cameras and we can actually have fun," someone is heard saying.

The night after the party, Kenya Moore made claims that she hear “sex noises” coming from a bedroom. Whew, chile.

”Love & Marriage: Huntsville” star Martell Holt chopped it up with “Married To Medicine” star Dr. Heavenly Kimes to address the messy cheating allegations made by his estranged wife, Melody Holt. Find out what he said inside…

“Love & Marriage: Huntsville” star Martell Holt is speaking out after his estranged wife Melody Holt made accusations about him cheating and possibly getting another woman pregnant.

The reality star hopped on video conference to chop it up with “Married To Medicine” star Dr. Heavenly Kimes – who is a friend of Melody’s - about his messy uncoupling with his estranged wife.

Melody – who filed for divorce from Martell after 12 years - hopped on IG Live to confirm her estranged husband is in fact expecting a baby with his alleged mistress, Arionne Curry. Yes, the mistress he infamously called "a peasant" last season. We've seen the baby registry, so it does appear to be a baby on the way. She has yet to confirm it's Martell's.

“Some things are true. I have cheated,” Martell Holt admitted.

However, he claims Melody cheated too. He claims she allegedly cheated on him before they signed on to star on the reality show and said if she’s going to tell things, she should tell the whole truth.

“But I’ll say to all women, take care of your man from the beginning. You know? If you know he has certain needs, take care of your man. Especially if your man is helping out at the house, taking care of the kids…I mean not just taking care of the kids, really the dominant parent. I’ve been the dominant parent when it came to my household. Always have been, I still am right now even going through this divorce, I still am.”

Oh, WOW.

Martell admitted he has been dealing with Arionne Curry for five years. He would cut her off and then go back to her.

“I know this is very wrong, but I say, ‘Melody, you see how you’re talking to me? You see how you’re doing? See, that’s why I cheated on you right there,’” he said.

Martell never confirmed or denied if Arionne is pregnant or had his baby. He did confirm they aren’t together…right now.

“Ya’ll gotta go ask her that,” he said referring to Arionne. “Ya’ll gotta ask her that.”

Martell said he cheated because she stopped having sex with him and stopped performing for him like she did previously. He revealed Melody went through two abortions and he wonders if someone else got her pregnant.

“You went throught this…I think twice. Why would you go through this if I’m your husband, if it’s mine why would you get an abortion?,” he questioned.

Martell claims he found inappropriate text messages between Melody and his frat brother, who is also her divorce attorney. He accused Melody of engaging in a romantic relationship with her divorce attorney. He said his frat brother was the one who sent him his divorce document, but he said his frat brother didn’t know he knew about their alleged “situationship.”

A MESS!

Does he want Melody back?

'Real Housewives of Salt Lake City' Is Coming With A Black Pentecostal First Lady Who Married Her Grandmother's Widower

Listen, we don't care exactly which city this is taking place in, since folks are questioning the validity of the show already, but the "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" looks like it's about to be the fall season foolery we need.  Deets inside on Bravo's newest "Real Housewives" franchise and the black Pentecostal First Lady who married her grandmother's widower.

 

Utah is known for being the epicenter of American Mormonism.  So, it's no surprise that religion is main backdrop of the newest "Real Housewives" franchise.  Despite some folks already accusing Bravo of staging the show with women who are actually living in luxurious Park City, it looks like it's going to be worth the watch regardless.

According to the press release, it's about to go from hordes of cold hard cash and hot fashions to swingers accusations, salacious marital problems and more REAL quick.  Here's an excerpt:

Bravo expands the hit franchise and heads to the slopes with the new series “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” launching with a supersized premiere on Wednesday, November 11 from 10:00 – 11:15 pm ET/PT.  The series delves into the undiscovered world of Salt Lake City within an exclusive social circle made up of six successful women who’ve created their own paradise filled with luxury homes, shopping sprees and multi-million-dollar businesses. The series follows the elite and unconventional lives of Lisa Barlow, Mary Cosby, Heather Gay, Meredith Marks, Whitney Rose and Jen Shah, as they navigate a society fueled by religion, beauty, wealth and perfection.

The Mormon church is undeniably engrained in the culture of Salt Lake City, but these women represent a spectrum of religious beliefs ranging from Mormon, Islamic, Jewish and Pentecostal. Here perfection is not an aspiration, it’s a mandate.  With a deep-rooted history, these women share a special bond, but when circles are this tight it’s only a matter of time before beliefs and personalities collide. Whether hitting the slopes, attending parties at Sundance or hosting the city’s elite, these housewives hold themselves and each other to an extremely high standard and never hold back when things go sideways, but lord knows they are always there for each other when they need it most.

Here's the first sneak peek and, it's a lot:

 

 

It's First Lady Mary for us, though.  She's one of two castmates of color, and she's got an interesting familial past.  She inherited her family's Pentecostal church empire, but there was a caveat.  She had to marry her late grandmother's second husband, Robert Cosby Sr., in order for her inheritance to come into fruition.  So, here we are, 20 years and one teenaged son later.

She's a self proclaimed fashionista who loves the good life because, what First Lady doesn't, really? 

Get into her designer fashions (those tithes are stacking up we guess...), her house and her family (well, she hasn't confirmed if this is her husband in the first pic or not, but folks are surely asking):

NeNe Leakes Says She's LEAVING 'RHOA,' But Does She Has Something Else In Store?

The self-proclaimed “Real Housewives of Atlanta” HBIC is calling quits…foreal this time. NeNe Leakes announced she will not be returning for Season 13, but does she have something new coming down the pipeline? Find out inside…

All good things must come to an end – sometimes to make space for something greater.

Earlier this year, there was drama after Wendy Williams announced on her daytime talk show that NeNe Leakes was leaving“Real Housewives of Atlanta.” It snowballed into a whole scandal after NeNe revealed she felt betrayed her "friend" would reveal what she said to her in private via text message.

Well now, it’s official. The self-proclaimed “RHOA” HBIC will not be returning for Season 13.

"There's been a lot of emotions on both sides," NeNe said in a video posted on her YouTube account. "It's been hard and I have made a hard, difficult decision to not be part of Real Housewives of Atlanta season 13."

The reality star – who is one of the show’s original cast mates - said “it wasn't an easy decision” for her to make, but it was time.

"I'm just so happy that I can say that I was part of a genre that opened up a door for Black ensemble reality shows," she said before offering up her gratitude. "I want to thank everybody that has looked up to me over the years. ...I want to thank Bravo for all the memories. ...Thank you to the cast for all of the memories."

Peep her message below:

Did you catch what she said about seeing her fans “REAL soon” at the end? Sounds like she has something up her sleeve. Talk show, perhaps? Time will tell.

It seems NeNe’s departure was amicable as BRAVO released a statement saying she’s always welcomed to come back.

"We wish NeNe all the best in her future endeavors and thank her for sharing her journey for over a decade with the fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. She’s been instrumental since the start and will truly be missed, and maybe one day she’ll hold the peach again," a spokesperson for the network said.

It’s been speculated NeNe was leaving the show before the 13th season. Over the summer, there were rumors that she had been fired. However, NeNe said she and the network were still negotiating her contract.

This isn’t the first time NeNe announced she was leaving the show. She chose not to film Season 9 altogether, but copped a peach for Season 10. Similar to this announcement, she announced she was leaving the show via social media:

"This is so hard for me to type! I cry as I do so! I am so Grateful for all the love and laughs! Thank you so much to everyone that has watched and supported me over the years on this amazing platform! With lots of thoughts and prayer I've decided to step out on faith and not fear #nomoRHOA4me,” she wrote at the time.

After NeNe stormed off the “RHOA” Season 12 digital reunion, it was up in the air whether she would be back. And now, we know she will not be on the next season…well, for now.

Based on her closing comments in her video, it sounds like we’ll be seeing her somewhere in the entertainment world. So, we’ll just have to wait and see.

Black Housewives On ‘RHONY’?! Rumor Has It Bershan Shaw & Alicia Quarles Could Be Joining The Cast

Could the “Real Housewives of New York” be adding some melanin to the cast? Possibly. Word on the curb is that two black women – Bershan Shaw& Alicia Quarles - could be joining the franchise. Deets inside…

The “Real Housewives of New York” is currently being shaken up with who’s staying and who isn’t returning before the upcoming 13th season. And it appears there may be some new blood joining the franchise. “RHONY” has not featured a Black housewife ever in the franchise’s 12 seasons, and only one woman of a color - Jules Wainstein in 2016 who is partly Asian - but that could possibly be changing.  Y'all know Bravo is late to the party always when it comes to learning there's black people in cities outside of D.C. and Atlanta.

Word on the curb is that TV personalityAlicia Quarles could be bringing her talents to BRAVO’s “RHONY” franchise. During an interview on Behind The Velvet Rope, she was asked if she was joining franchise. The self-proclaimed fashion lover didn’t confirm she's joining the show, but she didn’t say she wouldn’t be starring on the reality series either. The award-winning journalist said she’s good friends with all of the ladies on the show and left it open about whether or not she’s joining the show.

Check it:

Further fueling rumors, Alicia snapped it up with “RHONY” star LuAnn de Lesseps while out to dinner in the Big Apple last month:

We wouldn't be mad at this.

There's more melanin possibly being added to the show as well: 

 

Motivational speaker Breshan Shaw is also rumored to join the cast. Breshan - who is a two-time cancer survivor - has reportedly been filming scene for the hit BRAVO series. While she may not be an official cast mate, it's rumored she could possibly be a "friend of the show."

Brenshan is no stranger to television after starring on the 2014 OWN reality show, "Love in the City." These days, she's traveling around the world as a motivational speaker, sharing how she survived breast cancer after being diagnosed at the age of 33.

In a caption from a picture of herself posted in March, she wrote, "Last day in New York City. Last meeting. Last time I’m going to live in fear. I got GOD on my side. I’m off to a new beginning. A new me. A new chapter. A new way of thinking. It’s time for me to focus. Get closer to GOD. Get closer to my family. Get closer to finalizing my other stream of income. It’s time to sit down and focus my energy on the things that matter not on the things that don’t. Everyone stay safe and help those in need," she said.

It's up in the air on whether or not fan favorite Leah McSweeney will be returning. Apparently, she's negotiating a new deal to get more money and she's not going to film until she gets her coins.

TMZ reports:

Sources close to the show tell TMZ ... Leah is only being offered a "minuscule" pay raise for the upcoming 13th season of 'RHONY' -- which would be her second -- and she feels disrespected.

We're told the breakout 'Housewife' is holding out for an offer she feels is more deserving, considering what she brought to the table in her debut season ... and she won't return until she gets it. The clock is ticking, though -- the new season's supposed to start shooting in a week or 2.

Our sources say McSweeney made $3k per episode last season, which netted her about $60k, and she feels Bravo is trying to underpay her with a similar offer for Season 13.

There you have it.

Also...

"RHONY" star Elyse Slaine announced she will not be returning for the next season.  She was a "friend" of Ramona's and that ish did not end well.

With Dorinda out and possibly Leah, that's two spots open for some melanin.

RHONY's producers supposedly set out to diversify the cast and it might actually be happening. Will you be watching?

Last night’s episode of the “Real Housewives of Potomac” was EXPLOSIVE…to say the least. Co-stars/former friends Monique Samuels and Candiace Dillard-Bassett got into a physical fight and now we've got everyone's reactions. More inside…

The “Real Housewives of Potomac” fight fans have been waiting for finally aired last night. And whew! It was many things!

Tensions between Monique Samuels and Candiace Dillard-Bassett boiled over and it resulted in the ladies having to be pulled apart by producers.

Check it:

And here’s a behind-the-scenes angel of the fight:

Whew, chile!

Fans noticed Gizelle Bryant seemingly nudged Monique’s shoulder right before the fight popped off and they have been accusing her of starting the fight.

Monique noticed it too while she was live tweeting during last night’s episode:

She also retweeted this:

Ashley Darby said she was "shocked" the ladies were fighting after she returned from the restroom:

Gizelle hasn’t directly addressed the fight, but it’s clear who’s side she’s on:

Co-star Robyn Dixon heard what folks were saying about her involvement in the fight and responded:

Before the fight, Candiace responded to a fan who commented on the brawl:

She also laughed at a joke a fan made about her bundles staying intact:

”RHOP” fans accused Karen Huger of picking sides, but she said that’s not the case:

Newbie Dr. Wendy Osefo also provided commentary about the fight:

Wendy threw shade at Ashley Darby for being on Monique's side:

Ashley responded:

The fight went down back in October 2019 during a dinner party, which resulted in both ladies pressing charges. Candiace filed a complaint against Monique for second-degree assault. Then, Monique popped back with her own suit against Candiance for second-degree assault. A few months later, the Montgomery County State’s Attorney’s Office dismissed the charges against the RHOP stars, so both ladies dodged legal troubles.

Several of the ladies feel like Monique took it too far. Do you agree? Are you #TeamMonique or #TeamCandiace...and why?!
