“Real Housewives” to film in Roswell today
Cynthia Bailey
Hey want to have lunch with “The Real Housewives of Atlanta?”
Bistro VG in Roswell has them on the menu.
The restaurant at 70 W. Crossville Road just tweeted: “Come have lunch at the Bistro today and watch Kim and Cindy shoot a scene from Real Housewives of Atlanta!”
How’s that for a lunch special? We assume by “Cindy” they mean Cynthia Bailey, whose wedding at Fernbank capped the last season of Bravo’s runaway hit. Kim Zolciak’s pregnancy, baby shower and newborn will surely be featured in the upcoming season. Her fella Kroy Biermann accompanied her to Bailey’s wedding and was featured just briefly. Maybe he’ll get more camera time this season.
As far as filming sites go Bistro VG is a good choice. Its chic interior is going to look dreamy on screen. Wonder what the ladies will be discussing? Presumably not Kim’s singing career. “I don’t even know why she sings,” Bailey once told UsMagazine.com in a video interview. “She has no talent!”
Let us know if you go. We have an appointment at that hour or else would surely blaze a trail to Roswell to check it out.

Gee, I’d love to go… but I have an appointment for a colonoscopy and that’s just a little more fun (roll eyes).

These gold diggers give Atlanta a bad rap and do not represent the educated, successful and working African-American goddesses that Atlanta is known for.
Really???

I need to wash my vehicle during lunch.

Shaquitta: Kim doesn’t represent African-American ANYTHING, and Atlanta is not known for what you described. What parallel universe are you living in?
I think I’d rather spend my lunch break stapling bagels to my genitalia than watching these women ‘act’.

Dr. King would frown upon these sisters and the image they project to the world; not exactly role models for our young women and the hardships they’ll have to endure in this racist society.

Qwanzella, unless you are a joke, you should probably open your eyes and realize that 98% of this racism you speak of comes from blacks, not whites.

I agree with Tom to a degree although the percentage allocation is very exaggerated because I have experienced this and I am black. But who cares as everyone else points out where they are having lunch.

Hey AJC… how much do you pay the authors of The Buzz and the Mom Blog? Have you ever considered axing their positions and donating their salaries to a good local charity? It would do more good for the city than anything they could ever write in these capacities. Either that, or reassign them as news editors, so they can clean up the egregious spelling and grammar errors typically laced throughout the stories elsewhere on the site.

So 98% of racism comes from blacks? Where did you read that statistic? The KKK Journal Weekly, perhaps?

The anonymity with which some people post racist comments in these blogs functions just like the costume of the KKK–enabling cowards to vent their hatred “safely.” There is nothing safe about perpetuating racism.

Tom is right black people are huge RACISTS. Most black people hate white people.
I guess you are to simple minded to see that racism is not a label just for “honkeys”. A black comedian can tell jokes making fun of white people but if a white comedian did that blacks would be all up in a uproar. Black people are the biggest haters in America not whites. It’s not the 1920’s anymore it’s 2011 and blacks are the new hate mongers.

Liz Lee – yes, racism is wrong – regardless of which race practices it. Black against white, white against black and so on. If you’ll go back to the comment thread you will see that the first punch was thrown by the lovely Quanzella – and why – just to be ugly.

Atlanta is essentially a Chocolate City. Why Kim is even on the show makes me wonder what the producers were thinking. I would advocate having Kim replaced by someone like Monice Kaufman or Cynthia Tucker, a role model for the little sisters.
Keep hope alive, Atlanta. We’ll get it right !

…her marraige won’t last long anyway. She only went ahead with the wedding because she’d already made all the arrangements. The guy is so controlling and overbearing…..even her mother and sister didn’t want her to marry him. How blind can some women be? I guess she’s promoting lunch so Atlantans will show up to see them and then tune in to see themselves on camera….RATINGS BOOST!
Sorry, can’t make it…I already had lunch.

It’s Van Gogh’s restaurant. It used to be one of the nicer places to have a meal in Roswell. I suppose the competition was too much for the Sedgwicks and now they have to resort to carnival stunts.

Since 1929 the mother church of BBQ in Georgia.
Where Blacks & Whites can set aside their differences and sit down together in peace and harmony at the same table, a communion of the souls.

All of you with the “I’d love to but…” jokes, don’t give up your day jobs. That’s if you have one. Take your comedy tour back to where someone cares. If you don’t care about this show then go away. You just like seeing your own comments. It makes you feel like you’ve done something today, I guess.

This blog started out funny.. until someone had to bring up RACE/CIVIL RIGHTS. I promise yall i.e. mostly blacks on here i.e. Qwanzella, Shaquitta, Yvonne, will find a way to weave the IRRELEVANT, OBSOLETE and INAPPLICABLE subject of RACISM into any conversation. THIS WAS NOT ABOUT RACE!!!!!! THIS IS ABOUT A SHOW ON BRAVO!!! The show has a diverse cast of “INDIVIDUALS” born in different places across the nation, so how is it paralleled with traditions of AFRICAN AMERICAN Goddesses Atlanta is known for & what is that anyway..?
I bet you could be discussing CREATION and still find a way to make it be about race. Despite Atlanta being the birthplace for civil rights when it was needed in an era you know not of, WHY are you MILLENIALS and NEXTERS still so engulfed in the dealings with RACISM and CIVIL RIGHTS? Shouldn’t you being FOCUSING more/ all of your attention on your dealings/ Loving GOD, Loving people (www.campaignofone.com), building your business/brand/family and pursuing what you’re truly passionate about.
I suggest to you that you are being robbed of the freedom already fought/paid for by previous leaders, when you focus on a battle that has already been won. You are not to keep re-emphasizing the logistics of a battle that was fought on yesterday, thus making all of us suffer through it. Focus on your battle. What is your battle?
I call all of you into your destiny and future and bless you with the ability to run to YOUR battle, and slay the GOLIATH that stands b/w you and the fulfillment of your purpose.
(Some may ask)
What is my battle? Where does your problem exist.. What do you struggle with? What negative/unproductive cycles continue through the generations in your family? What are you passionate about? What stirs you to indignation?(something you want to change)
Roswellian here. GO AWAY RHOA.

WTH…..where are all of these racist comments coming from. Real House Wives of Atlanta and Trailer Park white shows are…WHAT!!!!!….ENTERTAINMENT!!! That’s all. Dr. King would have a good laugh at NeNe’s crazy behind and a conservative white leader would have a good laugh at some of the Trailer Park shows. Get a grip sour heads. It’s just comedy. If you don’t like the shows, turn the TV. Let these people make their money.
By the way, I couldn’t make the lunch because I had to watch a turtle race at the old folks home. LOL!! Don’t care for the show, but I ain’t mad at these ladies for making money in entertainment, because I realize that.
