Kandi Burruss held a 35th birthday party that didn't involve NeNe fighting with anybody. CREDIT: AP
Good ol’ Phaedra Parks helped instigate the Peter/Apollo fight last week.
Tonight, she again initiated another verbal altercation, this one between Kandi Burruss and Kandi’s opinionated mom Joyce.
Why? As Phaedra noted last season, she loves the strippers. As an attorney, she even represents one (named Ridickulous) who is so big, well, he has talents that most men are incapable of. And he demonstrated this said talent at Kandi’s 35th birthday party on the rooftop of the Renaissance Hotel in Midtown.
Kandi was cool with it. And Phaedra was in heaven.
“You won’t be able to find that in your local retailer,” Phaedra drawled.
Noting that Phaedra is his attorney, Kandi cracked, “Given how big that is, he probably gets sued for damages.” (Rimshot alert!)
Kandi’s mom Joyce walked away disgusted. “I don’t like no damn strippers!” she yelped.
NeNe, despite her own stripper past, acted all grossed out. by Ridickulous. “It’s disgusting,” she said, especially since people were wearing Gucci and Versace. (huh?)
“Me and Phaedra and Sheree were laughing,” Kandi explained later. “I wasn’t thinking about everybody else.” Especially her mom, who left early, cursing up a storm.
“It’s my 35th birthday,” said Kandi, chagrined, “And I feel like five.”
By the way, Kandi invited everyone to this party – except Kim, who is eight months pregnant. So the separation between Kim and NeNe continues. Sheree and Phaedra keep their distance from NeNe. Kandi said she hates being in the middle – but she invited them all there. (It’s a TV show. Everyone goes with it.)
“It’s like the Crips and the Bloods,” Phaedra notes. But no bloodshed happens. Just a big chill.
[During "Watch What Happens Live," Andy Cohen showed video evidence that Joyce has certainly seen strippers before but it's clear she was upset by the venue and setting as well as this particular stripper's behavior.]
What happened to the other housewives?
- Cynthia Bailey brought her sister Malorie to see her husband Peter at his new bar Bar One, which was about to open. Since Malorie and Cynthia’s mom were so worried about Cynthia’s mental state last season before her wedding, they pondered hiding the marriage certificate. Peter found out later, probably when the episode aired. He was peeved. He thought he was cool with Malorie until then and was hurt. Malorie tried to explain to him that she protecting her sister. He didn’t really buy it. “It wasn’t your day!” he said. In frustration, he got up and left, saying it was okay, even though it wasn’t. Malorie started crying.
Later, Malorie and Cynthia got into an argument because Malorie disapproved of Cynthia even pondering helping Peter out financially with his bar. (His last one belly flopped.) Cynthia got defensive and called out Malorie on her marriage issues. They then tried to cool down but it’s obvious the issue will rear its ugly head again in the future.
- Kim Zolciak got very little airtime this week. She opened the episode meeting with Phaedra, who carried a peace offering gift basket for what happened at the baby shower with her husband and Peter. Kim appreciated it, noting that Cynthia didn’t call her to apologize. She also met with a baby consultant (despite the fact she’s had two kids already) since her third will be a boy. They queasily talked circumcision.
- Sheree Whitfield saw no progress on her new home and brought Phaedra to be her lawyer. They verbally roughed up the contractor in hopes that they don’t have to go to court down the road.
- NeNe revealed to Cynthia that she had sex with Gregg after she got back from Miami though they are still technically separated. “Greg likes it down,” NeNe said. “He can be a tiger!”
NOTABLE QUOTES (there were plenty this week!)
“Note to self: keep the ex cons and ***holes off the guest list next time.” - Kim Zolciak, about any future parties, after the Peter/Apollo dust up last week.
“I don’t know how old Peter is. 65? 75? He’s entirely too old to be yelling at a ***king baby shower.” - Kim, in classy verbal mode again.
“I was on morphine. I was on epidural. I was crazy as a vampire in sunlight!” - Phaedra, on having her baby.
“I’m turning 35 this year. I’m feeling like I’m not married. I want to have another child. It’s kind of depressing. But it is like a milestone so it’s time to party.” - Kandi, rationalizing a party when it was probably the producers’ idea.
“I think Kandi wanted a friendship and Kim wanted a hit song.” - NeNe, pondering why Kandi and Kim have grown apart since “Tardy for a Party” became a huge hit.
“When you are as low down as Sheree, hitting below the belt, trying to dig up your past, you don’t deserve the friendship of NeNe Leakes.” – NeNe Leakes, placing herself in third person like Prince or Shaq.
“I don’t want him growing up with his peepee wearing a turtleneck.” - Kim, on getting her baby circumcised.
“Cynthia needs to set boundaries” between her husband and her family.” - NeNe.
“For a black man, it’s better to see you going than coming. Having a nice donkey booty is like having a carrot and dangling it in front of a horse.” - Phaedra, who teased and threatened a contractor, often at the same time.
“I never leave home without a taser. They’d be glad I left the .357 in the car!” - Phaedra, on her self-defense methods. Watch out Mr. Contractor!
“Lawrence looks like Mr. T dipped in Wonder Woman. Super hero of the South!” - Phaedra, after seeing Lawrence at the 35th birthday party.
“I just enter and my presence takes over the room.” NeNe, modest as always.
TEASER FOR NEXT WEEK
Peter loses $40,000 from an investor for his new bar. Cynthia is thinking about chipping in herself but is not happy about it. We see ex-hubby Bob Whitfield for the first time as Sheree tries to wrangle child support from him. And “Housewives” wannabe Marlo Hampton makes her debut. The rumore: she was dating an NFL player Charles Grant that NeNe also had dated.
RATINGS
Last week, ratings were up to 3.2 million from 3 million the week before. The first three episodes were up 700,000 viewers over a year ago, averaging 3 million. UPDATE: The fourth episode cited here drew 3.03 million compared to 2.49 million for the fourth episode season three.

The birthday gift was tacky. That particular party was not the place for it. That gift should have been given at a more personal and one gender setting. Then it could have been on with the ridickulous.

I love the idea Phareda, but not for the show. A more private setting wouldve been much better. NeNe stop acting fake! You was once a stripper. Peter plz stop taking your wife money! Am all for husband and wife being their for each other, but you still owe her money from the last investment. Am a caribbean woman, ur using her!

@Genesis: Agree. Peter just needs to get a job period. point blank. get a job, save some money, then open the clubs. these ventures tend to be money pitt anyways. especially now that the economy is down. Get in the storage biz Uncle Pete. Lots of foreclosed homes, ppl need a place to put the unnecessary stuff they accumulated.

First, Miss Phaedra knows good and doggone well that she wouldn’t want to be surprised with a stripper if her sanctifed mother was in attendence. Second, erotic dance is one thing that if done tasteful few people would oppose. An raunchy act featuring auto-oral -stimulation is quite another. That’s just tacky.

Phaedra’s b-day gift was inappropriate for that particular setting. If
if was more intimate and certainly without her mom there, then to each
it’s own. Phaedra’s delivery and timing of her gift really sucked and she needs to apologize to Kandi’s mother, even though her mom admitted
to being in the company of strippers before, I don’t think it was on the level of this one. On another note, why is everything Kandi wears
so tight and the 6 inch heels only pushes her butt out farther. Lawrence was a hot mess as usual. This whole ATL franchise of HH is very embarrassing and particularly to black women. Where is the message role model and message that people should be taking from this show. Is it to act like a fool, brag about designer this or that, grown folk bullying, rude & obnoxious behavior, I mean where and when does this foolishness end. These women have soul their integrity for a few nickels. Folk have died to be where they are now and this is what they bring to the table, their forefathers would turn over in their grave. Is this the” keeping it real” message that we want to send the younger generation? That it’s ok to go on national TV and be puppets for the Bravo execs ratings and paychecks. There is no serious market out there for the NeNe’s, Sheree’s, and Kim’s of the world. There 15 minutes of fame are nearly up and when the laughter has since stopped. It’s all trash TV at this point and shame on them because they all have young kids and should send a positive message and set a better example.

This show has become nothing but filth. It’s astounding that Kandi has a minor under her care considering the trash-and-nothing-but-trash content she puts out on this show. Same with Phaedra. It’s astounding this is held up as a representation of Atlanta. Why don’t they get their own porn show somewhere else in the bowels of cable. Or, wait…is this the bowels of cable?

Totally classless! I used to be a fan of Kandi. I appreciate her musical expertise and admire her for being able to make that twit, Kim, famous with her absurd “song”. However, after revealing her sex talk show, sex toys, and now this stripper (with her own mother in attendance, no less!) she has shown what a classless fool she is. Some things don’t need to be made public.

I love the show because it is entertainment. Do I like how it depict women? No. I am loving Ne Ne and because she use to be a stripper does not mean she likes male strippers. I love to dance like a stripper myself ,but I think male strippers are disgusting. This is entertainment folks. The only way this show make you look bad if you carry youselve like this in REAL LIFE….

If this show was replaced these women with a more true “representation” of Atlanta’s beautiful, educated, and real housewives no one would watch it. Is the DC Housewives still on? no, was not enough drama. This is TV. The show is created to draw viewers and not to be a docudrama of Atlanta housewives. So, don’t hold your breath for a better cast or story lines.

That show was so, so funny, I laughed and laughed, I laughed when it was over. I too was disgusted by the depth of lewdness by the stripper and would not ever want my eyes to see anything so nasty, committing a sex act on himself, yuck. When Nene said she was going to take out her eye balls, put them in her purse and drive home blind I was rolling on the floor with laughter. I love Nene. My mother would have been disgusted too. Yeah and whatever that stuff is Gucci and Versace, if I were wearing that I sure wouldn’t be going to see a stripper. Phaedra is over the top nassstay (spelling correct).

I don’t exactly think Phaedra’s birthday gift was appropriate at THIS party, since Kandi’s Mon was there. There’s having an “open mind”, and then there’s just taste. This has nothing to do with taste! Since these “housewives” are on tv, don’t they have “stylists”?!?!?!?!? Kandi’s birthday dress was laughable at best!! Her a_ _ was too big for that kind of dress!!!! Either lose the weight so you CAN wear that kind, or wear something that fits and doesn’t have you looking like a sausage!

First, Phaedra did not instigate the fight between her husband and Peter. Next, I have a problem with Itunes about this show. Itunes is delaying posting Real Housewives of Atlanta and other show like Braxton Family Values because they are trying to help pump up the Kardashians. They post Kardashian episodes almost immediately the next day but not the same for African American reality tv shows. RHOA and Braxton Family Values are hit shows in their own right and Itunes is doing some shady bogus stuff to it’s customers. They are disregarding their African American customers who buy tv shows and movies fromt their store. Just wanted to put that out there. I got on Itunes at 7AM (in Chicago) and the Kardashians take New York was on Itunes but not RHOA. Itunes did this last year too…not right! Pass it on and maybe they’ll start being fair.

Everyone making comments MUST be from the South. I’m from a large city and a stripper at a 35 year old’s birthday party is NOT inappropriate (and yes, even with the mother there). I think the mother treated Kandi like a 13 year old. Mom, sorry but your daughter is a grown ass woman and has her own ‘interests’. She didn’t bring the stripper anyway. I just don’t get why everyone is bothered by a stripper being at a grown woman’s birthday party. Really? Maybe it’s because of a Southern thing, I guess. I’m from the big city and it’s not unusual at all. It doesn’t happen very often but I’ve been to a birthday party where a stripper appeared and yes, we were shocked but no one cried over it and cursed over it either. I think everyone is being dramatic and prudish (on this site). This is a grown a$$ woman’s party. Mom should’ve just left the room but she didn’t have to swear up a storm. Maybe it’s a southern proper thing…and I don’t get it. Kandi liked it and guess what? It was HER party…she’s an adult people..not 17!!!

I’d like to know these facts at the end of November – is Bar One open; are the couples still married; did Cynthia ever apologize to Kim; did Phaedra apologize to Mama Jones; is Sheree’s house completed; Is Gregg back home and is the Bailey agency up and running.

What Phaedra gave her as a gift was and is TOTALLY INAPPROPRIATE!!! That stripper looked like he is filled with ABSOLUTELY EVERY SINGLE VENERAL DISEASE THERE IS! I know a LOT of male strippers and NONE of them are disgusting. For Phaedra do give Kandi that gift and THINK it was appropriate is beyond me. The little class I THOUGHT she had…she proved to me that she is CLASSLESS!!! She is trifling in many areas. For Kandi to just sit there laugh and enjoy that disgusting gift makes me wonder about her mental state of mind. Is she crazy? Her Mother was sitting there – for crying out loud – and she STILL didn’t see ANYTHING what so ever WRONG with a grown freak sucking his stuff? REALLY? I am totally disgusted with Phaedra and Kandi. Even Ne Ne and a lot of other people left the party! I would have left too. Any decent person in their right mind would not dare stay and witness crap like that! That is TOTALLY UNACEPTABLE even for BRAVO NETWORK!!!
Kandi you should be ashamed of yourself. Then you and Phaedra both CLAIM to be Christian? Really? You are VERY POOR REPRESENTATIONS OF JESUS CHRIST!!! Totally disgusting to say the least! You BOTH should have your heads examined. I think you are both just crazy! I am a open-minded person, but what you did and allowed to happen at your party is a travesty! Not only did you disrespect your Mother, but you disrespected millions of other people by allowing Phaedra to present that trash to you. Of course you had no idea…he started dancing, but the moment he started sucking his own stuff..You should have made both he and Phaedra leave! If she were my attorney I would fire her! Phaedra is classless! She has NO CLASS at all. She should be ashamed of herself! sick…just plain old sick!!!

@trtainmntatitzbest It appears Bar One is still open, as is the Bailey Agency. (http://thebaileyagencyschooloffashion.com/home/?page_id=6) and there have been no reported divorces among the married housewives and their men (Phaedra, Cynthia, Kim, who of course, just got married on 11/11/11). No word that Sheree’s house is complete either. I think Gregg and NeNe are back together as well. As for the apologies, we’ll find out.

I will say that when Cynthias husband said that Sheree was ugly..I TOTALLY agree. She is a wannabe as one other blogger described her. She is so jealous of Ne Ne. It’s obvious.

I read your comment. So you are saying that people from the North are more open to this type of stuff? That is bull and you know it. What you are REALLY saying is that people from the North is classless right? You must be saying just that! I’m from the North and it was classless for tha stipper to suck his own stuff. Now I must say that you must also be a freak just like that stripper. Class is class and you and Phaedra or Kandi has absolutely NO CLASS at all!

First of all, perception is reality. Phaedra is very unclassy. I can only judge Phaedra by what I see on the show. Personally, she may be a very wonderful person. However, I don’t think any husband would want their wife to be on national television watching a stripper pleasure himself, bragging on the stripper, or setting up the appointment. What happened to discretion? How sick are you? Honestly, I know it’s reality television but this crosses the line. Also, I think Kandi needs some true direcetion in her life. She is such a sweet lady. Yet, she needs to be taught discretion as well. We don’t need to know all of your personal feelings and thoughts about things of the sexual nature.

And black women in Atlanta wonder why they cannot find a good black man. I know every black woman in Atlanta doesn’t behave like this, but damn. These women are giving black women in Atlanta a very bad name. Are there not any virtuous, respectable black women of high quality? Are most black females in Atlanta so sexed crazed and/or desperate that they willingly participate/spectate in such lewd behavior? I do not believe any decent black guy who has his sh.t together would take these women seriously.

I saw an episode where Kandi’s mom was sitting around with her daughter and friends, casually talking about dildos. Yet, she was irate about the stripper? Just for the record, I think a real lady will keep her bedroom fantasies behind closed doors. Period. Phaedra loves to tell people she’s a southern belle, but her actions tell us who and what she really is. Telling that contractor to look at her butt …. really? Phaedra and Sheree looked like idiots going out there trying to “threaten” the contractor. It was insulting to say the least. I don’t know who he is, but at least he has some common sense. Sheree goes out to the construction site in high heels trying to throw her weight around – silly.

Sheree keep your job so you can pay for that house, as your body is banging but you face needs work. NeNe you look even worst this season and you were never attractive anyway, you better run back to Greg as anyone else would not want you for you. Kandi, girl I need you to meet me and my husband, where you hang out at. You don’t need a man, you need us. Kim stay happy, loving Kroy. Cynthia, girl let him go and you should have walked down that ailse with your Fine Azz Ex Leon. Nothing else is on tv to watch, so this will do.

I like the humor in the show but last night was past tacky! A man sucking his own D*CK??!! Nasty! I would never want to see this on any level!! I’ve been living in the Atl since 1996 and do not personally know any women like this! Cynthia needs to dumb old man Peter. Why does he always need her money?? Why wouln’t her sister be concerned? Look how he acts? WTF was he going off last week for? I do not know how old he is, but he looks like Cynthia’s father. She can do better on her own. NeNe is NeNe, yes she may have been a stripper, but I highly doubt she was stipping and “licking” herself! I do not want to see any more strippers on this show! Tacky!!

I think the stripper @ Kandi’s party was out of place and should have been done in a more private setting. There were guys as well as girls that were there and I’m sure came to celebrate Kandi’s B-day not see a stripper suck his BIG ding dong. NeNe has issues that need to be settled within herself. She use to be a stripper yet instill she always has something to say against them. I’m sure then she would understand if people held her past and loud mouth against her. NeNe is so full of drama people watch to see all the ladies, but at this point NeNe is getting on my last nerve with classless wanna be prissy self. If anything she is loud, wide mouth, catty as well as jealous hearted of anyone who dare is making any accomplishments in life. NeNE grow up!!! I LOVE Kim & Kroy, I hope they make it.

If I’m not mistaken, Ne-Ne was a stripper, not a —–licker–and there is a difference. This was a little over the top for even me, but it won’t stop me from watching, for it is ONLY entertainment, people. As for Sheree, this woman is so filled with envy for Ne-Ne, she can’t see straight. And for those of you that can’t stand Ne-Ne, there is not one single person on that show who is interesting enough to keep that show going by themselves, if she leaves —and that includes Kim!

I love RHOA!!!! I am a huge fan…
Kandi is a GROWN A$$ woman and can have a stripper at her party. It was nothing wrong with that. If people didn’t agree with it, leave! Kandi’s booty has been popping lately and I must say she is looking good. Kandi seems to be a little messy this season and not her normal laid back self. I agree with someone else, that I thought Kandi was much older than 34. Xscape was popular when I was in middle school, I’m 28 y/o now. Hmmmm….
Phaedra is HILARIOUS and is my favorite housewife. From the freaky strippers, crazy quotes and that donkey booty, she’s a mess. I did think it was a little over the top of her to bring the stripper to the party without mentioning it to Kandi. Especially, since he had “special talents” that everyone might not want to see. I would have personally loved to see Apollo, dropping his boxers! LOL
I think the two hypocrites of the night were Mama Joyce and NeNe. Mama Joyce sits around with her daughter talking about strippers, sex, sex toys, etc. Why would this stripper offend her? NeNe used to be a stripper. Girl please! What the hell could you possibly be offended about? Most female strippers lick and suck their own n!ppl3s….
NeNe looks more masculine than Dereck J and Lawrence! I don’t know where this prissy mess is coming from! She needs to run her ugly, moose looking azz, back to Greg.
Cynthia is such a spineless idiot! Peter is a leech and is going to suck her dry! Why is she on the shop??
Kim lucked up and got pregnant by a decent guy. I pray for Kroy and hope that Kim and her kids don’t bleed him dry.
Sheree… why is she on the show again? Oh yeah because she is broke and needs the money. Chateau Sheree, isn’t she tired of making the news for repossessions and foreclosures??
At the end of the day, it is entertainment and it keeps me thoroughly entertained, every Sunday.

I read online that the ATL Housewives make 150K per episode so I really can’t blame them for upping the ante on each episode.
I thought the stripper sucking his own wank was way too much for this show especially when Bravo showed him swinging it around like a spinning top and I can understand why Kandi’s mom was upset but I have to admit I was crying laughing when she was going off

Kandi’s late fiance was the owner of a strip club in Atlanta. He actually died in the parking lot of that establishment, so she has no problems with that kind of business. We all know what goes on in strip clubs and it’s not just exotic dancing folks. If Kandi is sincerely looking for a good decent man to marry and become the father of her children, then she had bettter clean up her act because what man is going bring her home to meet his mama after seeing this hot mess?

I think the stripper was a bit much for TV and my child was still up at that time. I had to cover her eyes….this show is getting to be unpredictable. Phaedra could have saved that stripper for an more personal setting. Nene off the chain and she once was a stripper. I wonder did anyone “leave their eyes in their purse/wallet” when she was stripping? Mama Joyce took it too far at the party….I mean really? Kandi talked about sex, sex toys and everything else a few times with her mother on the show. Most times daughters would be scared to discuss topics as such but Kandi always does it. Did anyone see how Malorie husband was looking when she was asking about Cynthia’s money and Bar One??? LOL

For everybody FREAKING OUT over the stripper at the party need to calm down. This “birthday party” for Khandi was set up for the show by BRAVO, these people all knew what was going to go down even Khandi’s Mama…be angry at BRAVO for allowing that junk (pun intended) to air.
Khandi’s real b-day celebration was on another day, sans all the housewives EXCEPT Phaedra at another restaurant.
I agree with everyone saying NeNe needs to sit the eF down and shut the eF up…girl use to throw her kooka in everybody’s face of dollar bills…this shouldn’t have offended her..
She did give us a morsel of the loveable NeNe with that line about “pulling her eyes out, putting them in her purse and driving home blind” that was the NeNe we all fell in love with….this new beast has become so unnecessary to the show and brings nothing but bitterness.
Phaedra is the new star.

@Sunshine. Wherever you read that, there is zero chance the housewives make $150K per episode. Perhaps the six divvy up $150K per episode but not EACH. I know they were making $10K per ep for season two so I would fathom they are making $20 to $25K now (just a guess). With 18 episodes this year, plus two reunion shows, they could each be pocketing $400K plus. That’s good money though not enough to be in the top 1%.

“Open”? Really, Kandi? Nasty and disgusting are more like it. If you and Phaedra want to exude a wee bit of “class”, keep the TRASH at home.
And to those of you exalting that Kandi is a grown *** woman, it’s amazing how that phrase only comes up when someone is engaged in off-putting behavior. I have YET to hear someone say that while they are feeding the hungry and clothing the homeless…
And to Cynthia’s sister: Anyone with two brain cells know what’s up with Papa Smurf. You are right on the money, honey. Back off, however, and let Cynthia do her thing or else she may end up sticking with Peter just because she wants to prove you (and the entire world) wrong.

Kandi’s age is right … She’s just a bit older than me, as I was a teenager when Xscape first hit it big and I’m 32 now. It just seems like she should be older because she has been around so long and done so much. People forget that those girls in Xscape were still in high school when they started out.

As to NeNe I think in her comments re the designers she was trying to say that she thought these people had class because of their money, status and clothes but underneath they are just trash and not elevated at all!

I couldn’t believe last night’s show!! I’m not a prude by any means but it still shocked me. Especially when it was mentioned that he dipped his “thing” in a girl’s drink!!! How gross is that??? And who on earth wants to watch him suck himself?? Major yuk. I can’t stand NeNe’s high opinion of herself but I really do think mostly it’s just a low self-esteem act of defensiveness. Love Kim and Kroy together. They seem like the only normal ones on the show at this time. I have high hopes for Kandi but none at all for Cynthia and Peter.

Scripted or not…
There are just things money cannot buy …dignity; integrity; love; class; common sense and salvation are just a few!
It is unfathomable that the name King (as in Martin and Coretta) or any aspect remotely associated with their contributions and struggle to society was, is, and could ever be mentioned (or should I say dropped) on or within earshot of that show.
Entertainment is one thing, but some things are over the top. The show could be more riveting if they explored “real reality issues”! Well, some of us now know what the “old folks” meant when they said that “An idle mind is the devil’s workshop”.
Our poor children are in trouble and believe me race and status have nothing to do with it! Oh by the way, I believe one of the “wives” is on the board of a children’s shelter. (Hmmm, imagine that.)

Phakedra is fast becoming my favorite on the show. She’s over the top, trouble making, crap starting and lies like a rug but I watch to see what she’s gonna do or say!
Someone above asked why Sheree is jealous of NeNe. I’ll tell you why – because last season she was a NMFF and she just might get the Deshawn/Lisa bumrush so she has to up her game, seeing as how her Sheit by Sheree and “acting” careers have gone nowhere. What’s even funnier about her is she took Phakedra to this house builder building this “chalet” (lol) to scare him and Phakedra ended up stealing the show with the donkey booty thing. I loved it!
Yes the stripper was not appropriate because one, it was outdoors, two it was a mixed party with men and women and three, a man schtupping his own sausage is not something really worth seeing. Putting it in Khandi’s drink was just as disgusting…you don’t know where that anaconda’s been…
I don’t understand people who criticize the show but yet watch it every week. It’s your thing but stop pretending you don’t like it.

If woud had been better if they would have had a private show awat from the camera.. all viewers are not into that freaky stuff. And there may have been some children still up , After all we waere still in primetime. It seems noone cares about what is shown on TV anymore and peoples self respect has gone down the tubes.Its time we start taking thinking about what we put on TV..It is enough things going on in this world without this distasteful stuff.

I didn’t see the initial showing of this program on Sunday night, but I saw a repeat of it last evening (Monday) and I was very, very surprised. I can’t believe Phaedra would have a stripper at Kandi’s birthday party where men were also invited. It would have been okay, maybe, if it were just all women (not to include Kandi’s mom), but it went over the top with the men AND KANDI’S MOTHER present. First of all, the guy looked horrible. I believe Nene or someone called him a “monster;” secondly, the things he did were disgusting and having him there was totally disrespectful of Kandi’s mom. I’m sure Phaedra would not have appreciated this at her birthday party had someone invited this guy and he did what he did in front of her “minister” mom. The show should be yanked or Phaedra should be yanked from the show with this type of behavior. I thought Phaedra had more class than this, especially being a professional lawyer, but I see she does not. Additionally, she is married and she was parading her “behind” in front of Sheree’s contractor. Some things women should keep behind closed doors for their partner only. I used to like Phaedra, but find she is disgusting. If this is the type of drama she has to bring to this show to keep from getting kicked off by not being boring, she does not need to be on. …And the exes at Bravo need to clean this show up a bit. I understand drama bringing more viewers, more advertisers; thus, more money, but this one episode was horrible to say the least. I see why Kim is trying to get her own show, hanging with some of these people can make her look bad. Seems like she may be trying to clean up her act a bit. Thank goodness someone is trying to. …And Sheree just can’t hide her envy of NeNe – it’s written all over her face. It’s crazy. Don’t hate Sheree, you can still make it, just keep promoting and working with your clothing line “She by Sheree.” …Add some shoes and other accessories to the mix, but please stop hating on others, particularly NeNe!

Nene Leakes is a definite wanna be. People who have money and wear designer clothes do not go around talking about it. It usually speaks for itself or not. Nene’s presence take over the room because she’s so big. Nene is the one who is jealous of Kim ,Sheree, and Phadra. Look at Nene and look at them they are the better looking. What Nene can’t bully she leave alone. Why didn’t she get in Sheree’s face like she did Kim’s, LaToya, and Starr’s. Nene is the biggest embarrasement on the show.
There should be a line drawn no matter how much a mother and daughter get along or hang out. This was a 35 year old woman’s birthday party and Phaedra gave her friend Kandi a gift she thought she would like. Now anyone who was there who was offended good for you. When a stripper is involved at any party you never know what is going to happen. You should have gotten up and left as soon as he started dancing. Nene you probably saw more than that being a stripper yourself. Be true to yourself people. Personally when I am at a party and a stripper come forth some of the other women and I remove ourselves from the room before they start because I do not like stripping performances. Because you women do have children you should try to show more positive attitudes and educational presentations. Having a glass of wine everytime all hours of the day Nene is not something I would want my children to see. You wonder why your oldest son is not working? Take heed to all of the profanity you women use and how you portray yourselves because no matter how much you make from the show it can come back and bite you one day.

I think the performance was over the top. I cannot believe they aired the actual performance on the show. It was apparant by the reactions that some people knoew about the stripper and others did not. Who would expect at a nice birthday party, at the top of a hotel that a stripper is going to show up and suck his own stuff. I think it was inappropriate. However, I think that is what the producers was aiming for. They wanted true reactions from the guests. Some watched, some were disgusted. I still can’t believed they aired that on TV!!!

It is funny how Phaedra can get a stripper for Kandi’s party with her mom being present but did not have the balls to tell her mom about her being knocked up out of wedlock. Phaedra you looking at Joyce like what is your problem why not woman up and tell your mom about all your boot knocking experiences before the marriage. Have some respect!

I thought it was hilarious and what I find also weird was Peter’s intense stare and even comments about RiDICKulous.Cynthia definitely need to examine her decision to marry him because “he batty man”….

@ Kar….Great Comment.
It seems that Channel 2 along with all news outlets have been successful in convincing non thinkers into believing what they want to believe which is why those that fall for the deception will be the first to act surprised when “Bill” is accused of something because in their mind there is only one shade of man that can be the “boogie man” but for me the “boogie man”has a different shade…

As a Black person myself I get so sick of how ignorant some Blacks think.You want to paint the entire Black race of women based off one television show just because you scared “Miss Ann and Mr. Charlie” will see you in the way you see the women on the show.It makes no sense to even comment on how you think some of the women act on the show especially since you watched it.I didn’t see the show,I just saw a story on another site which is how I know about the show because even though I don’t watch it there are blog sites that keep a weekly update going….

For all of you people that don’t know this but may need to be reminded that “Bravo” is cable and what was seen on RHOA is no worse that what is seen on any so called reality show.One person says they had to cover their child’s eyes when infact your child shouldn’t be watching that show whether they are up or not….

@autumn you said it best. I don’t like strippers either but $hit Kandi has a live sex line, she sells sex toys so indeed this was a good gift for her. Each and everyone had time to exit the room. I like Mama Joyce but she must realize Kandi is an adult and should be respected as one.BIG Man-man Nene has seen it all by being a stripper herself. I could not believe she acted like an innocent little girl. Those dollars you make has changed you into a monster. Ridicules said he has even given Man-man Nene a lap dance……..go figure!

This was the most tacky, classless, tasteless thing on TV. I hope America does not think that ALL black America behaves this way. I don’t live in ATL, but from this show…it’s a ranchid mess!!! You would think all these people have on their minds are sex and money. And then I watch the Beverly Hills wives the next night and they’re having a fashion show to help needy kids. This show is an embarrassment. Please leave ATL Bravo…and keep the gay men down there too…from the ones wearing heels to the ones pleasuring themselves with their own mouth!!!
And Phaedra with all her education…she doesn’t have anything else to discuss but big butts?!?! SO WHAT!! We see big butts everyday in the black community. Get over it and use that intelligence you claim to have in your conversation. SMDH!!!

I LOVED IT! It was Freakin Hilarious!! All biases aside, it’s reality tv and this is exactly what I want to see when I tune in. Watching the show doesn’t compromise my value system one bit. It’s pure entertainment at its best and I hope they continue to deliver. Further, the show has the highest rankings amongst the other housewife franchises FOR A REASON. Like it or not, business is business.

That was in extremely poor taste, and I think it was disrepectful for Kandi’s mother, and especially since there were men there as well. No man, unless he is gay is interested in looking at another man’s d—. Phaedra tries to portray herself as a southern bell, but she is as low class as they come. As an corporate attorney, I like to get wild with the best of them, but this was not the time nor place for this stripper. A bachelorette party with all women is fine, but this was in very poor taste. I am from New York, NY, which is a northern state, and found it to be extremely classless.

These women’s behavior on the show isn’t to everyone’s liking but the comments about these women not working–I don’t see that–Phaedra is an attorney, Sharee is trying to start her own fashion line, Kandi is involved in the music industry, as is Kim (good or bad) and she has her wig line–these women have children they are raising–these women all work to make something, earn money and take care of their kids–why don’t people talk about that!!!

I thought the show was entertaining ( some parts were a bit gross) but it was related to a previous show. I really don’t think children should watch any of the housewives shows or many other reality shows. I love the show and will continue to watch it.

The stripper should have been arrested for lewd act and indecent exposure……lewd sex act in a public place. Anyone know what the owner and management of the place had to say? What was the reaction of the owner, management and employees of the place? Any lawsuits pending?
