Being college-educated doesn't seem to a prerequisite for ANY of the "Housewives " shows. There's not a Rhodes Scholar in the bunch! Actually the worst person on Atlanta is Kim and she's white! She couldn't even handle a cosmetology class! This woman is scary because she's too dumb to know that she's dumb. Her money comes from being a mistress which can't be compared to being married to a sports pro (which is a legit way to make a living) and having and raising his children. I really like the new woman. She's made a good career for herself not just singing but writing too. She wrote "No Scrub" which was a huge hit (and a great song) for TLC. Nene doesn't seem to have much of an education but she's not stupid. Her little song about Kim (last season) was pretty funny and creative (two things that Kim is not). Actually, very few of the women (on all of the "Housewives" shows come off looking good at all and they're all white. Why should BRAVO change their formula if it's working?

Which sports pro is her sugar daddy?

Kim isn't the brighest, but I don't believe she is as dumb as she lets on. If she is truly a nurse, she can't be that dumb. That isn't a college program you can sleep your way through.

I think Kim's sugar daddy is in the music business rather than sports. He is the one who hooked her up with that Dallas guy to try to produce her record

Thank you, I had no clue what that meant either!


Kim wanted to know about wigs ... why waste her precious time on real hair when she's only there for Wigs ... she didn't want to curl anyone's hair, she wanted to scope out the WIGS ... why are you forcing her to admit the existence of real hair ?!?

I don't think any of the housewives shows portrays their characters in a very positive light.
I think it's safe to assume that everyone who goes on these shows is not doing it because they feel that Bravo is going to depict them in a favorable light. I think people are fully aware of what they're getting themselves into when they sign up for these shows, or any reality shows for that matter.

i think we need to remember that this reality series isnt really real...for instance Kandi(who actually i stole my nickname from because i loved her in xscape her her 1st solo album was GREAT!) didnt know any of these women prior to being thrown in a group with them and having to attend social events with them. so alot of times when one of the HW says.."and she was a friend of mine" what that really means is I met her a day before taping started. Also i-as an African American Woman-dont think that these women bring us down at all. Well maybe Kim does but thats mainly because i think she plays the stupid role, and I HATE that. Anyway back on point we honestly dont know anything about these women's backgrounds just from watching the show. And all of these woman say they do charity work, well except Kim again and they dont have to work, so what exactly do you want them to do all day? Lisa owns how many comapnies with her sexy sexy husband? Nene has a young son and a college age son, Kim-o Kim- has 2 young children, as does Sheree and Kandi has 1 plus the 6-which is a whole nother topic-so whats wrong with them staying home? I just think they get judged too harshly for no reason.

I know it well. Alot of my family and friends are associated with it and the Links.

I missed this last night cuz the grandaughter was over and "Dora" ruled the airwaves at my house. Will it be on again...hope-hope....
Did anyone ever find out who "Big Poppa" was and is he out of the picture now? I read in a post that Kim still thinks she can sing.....I can only say my dog covers his ears when she starts in.....Who is she sponging off of now if not "Big Poppa"? If all this is answered in the first show of this season....sorry as I said I missed it

I never said that Kim's sugar daddy was in sports. Someone else questioned why this show only portrays African American women surviving off of money from sports professional husbands and rap music. Maybe I didn't word it correctly. What I wanted to say was that at least the "sports" wives and the new, song writer gal have nothing to be ashamed of. Kim's situation is a bit on the funky side. So I'm just saying that it's the one white woman on the show who is an embarrassment NOT the African Americans (at least when it comes how they make a living).
