Kandi “Kandi Girl” Burruss is no stranger to the camera. Before being part of the Real Housewives of Atlanta, a spin-off of the Bravo show, The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Burruss was part of the female R&B group, “Xscape”. Xscape shared most of their success in the early 90s and also featured Kandi’s sisters Latocha, Tamika Scott and childhood friend Tameka Cottle.

Although being part of The Real Housewives of Atlanta has now resurrected Kandi’s otherwise dead career, she admits that she wasn’t crazy about being part of the show at first. Kandi Burruss recently mentioned, “Now, I’m glad I’m a part of the show, At first, when I signed on and folks went crazy on the blogs, I was like, ‘Wait a minute, hold on, did I do the right thing?’ But now I’m cool with it.”

The Real Housewives of Atlanta is currently in its second season and airs on the Bravo network on Thursdays at 10 p.m. For more information on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Kandi Burruss and more, keep visiting Frisky Spot.

Fakes boobs, Million dollar homes and drama, The Real Housewives of New Jersey promises plenty of them in the weeks to come. May 12, 2009 marked the official premiere on Bravo Network of The Real Housewives of New Jersey “Episode 1: Thicker Than Water.” The premiere introduced cast members: Caroline, Danielle, Dina, Jacqueline and Teresa.

According to the Bravo Network’s synopsis of the The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s first episode, Caroline tries to get her sons’ lives in order, “one is going to law school and the other is trying to start his own strip club.” Teresa goes to her eight-year-old daughter’s dance performance and decides she’s destined for stardom. Finally, “Danielle gets back in the dating game with a man she met online [wealthymen.com]…”

This last point was the highlight of the show as 45-year-old Danielle attempts to bag a wealthymen.com stud online. For those who don’t know, Wealthy Men is a dating site specifically for men making 6+ figures to find potential daters. Sure enough, Danielle was stood up by the Wealthy Men member who calls himself “Gucci Model.” Her sister in-laws spied on her, all the while, and the episode ended with Danielle cursing Gucci Model out big time in a voice message.
