Official Real Housewives of Atlanta Thread
My girls and Dwight are back for another season. Can't wait for the gifs and drama to come from this season. 
Meet the new housewives:
Cynthia Bailey
Quote:
|
Glamorous Cynthia resides in Atlanta with her 10-year old daughter, Noelle. The Alabama-born beauty moved to New York City 18 years ago to pursue her dream of modeling with nothing more that a high school Homecoming Queen crown and a few beauty pageants under her belt. Her very first booking was the cover of Essence, but that was only the beginning. From major fashion features to the runways in Paris and Milan Fashion Weeks and from staring in a movie opposite Sandra Bernhardt to a guest role on The Cosby Show, Cynthia has had an enviable career path. Cynthia joins the Housewives at a pivotal time in her relationship with her boyfriend of three years, Peter Thomas. He has issued her an ultimatum, and though Cynthia has always been independent and financially comfortable, she must come to terms with her marriage hang-ups or risk losing him for good. Already a close friend of NeNe’s, their friendship deepens as together they struggle through relationship issues with the men in their lives.

Kandi is a Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter who resides in Atlanta
with her seven-year-old daughter Riley. She is a former member of the platinum-selling musical group Xscape, and won a Grammy Award for her work on TLC's mega hit "No Scrubs." Kandi juggles her busy life as a single mom and hard working career woman, but also finds time to let loose on the Atlanta social scene, stepping out with members of the music industry's elite.
Kandi’s world was turned upside down last year with the death of her former fiancé. Working to rebuild, Kandi is starting to date again and is back in touch with her father who she learns is sick with cancer. After her Capitol Records deal fell through last year, Kandi has signed with a new label and is putting together a new album with songs heavily inspired by AJ. Ever the survivor, Kandi moves forward building a solo career, a love life, and developing a friendship with the other housewives, particularly Kim.

Vivacious single mom Kim lives with her two children, Brielle and Ariana, in a gated townhouse community in Duluth, Ga. A staple in the Atlanta social scene, she has her own line of wigs and a hit single under her belt.

After learning to work together, Kim accepts Kandi’s invitation to open for her summer promo tour, only to find that it’s much harder work than she ever imagined. Even more complicated is balancing her rollercoaster relationships. Kim must decide what she really wants out of her career, her friendships, and in her love life.
