Porsha tells Kordell about what happened during the argument. She claims that she is easy going, he disagrees, and that she wasn’t trying to argue. She glazes over how she delivered a low blow and mocked Kenya’s age but emphasizes that Kenya called her a bitch. He’s surprised but wants to stay out of the drama. It’s funny. On just about every other franchise the men are really invested in the wives’ drama and on this one, they barely want to talk or know about it. He says Porsha always starts something and does not think that his wife is as easy going as she claims to be.
“You’re easygoing? You didn’t talk to me for a week when I didn’t finish telling you that story!”
“You shouldn’t have stopped! He huffed and puffed and then what? Did he ever blow the house down?!”
That day, the group is going on a trip but Kenya feels like they need to clear the air. Kenya apologizes with a but, as in, “I apologize but when…”. Kenya was still bent out of shape about being called a “out of ” her name. Porsha tries to interrupt for clarification but Kenya won’t let her. Porsha says Kenya looks angry and has a face like a dried raisin. They bicker, talk over each other, Cynthia pipes up with useless dialogue and Peter tries to come in and regulate because all of the men are waiting on the bus to get on a boat. They have agreed to stay out of the women’s drama which is yet another mature decision from the ATL men. Peter tries to look manly in front of Kordell when he reenters the bus but admits that Cynthia sent him back to the bus with his tail between his legs.
Kandi: At what point are you gonna start twirling? Cuz…I missed that last night.
Cynthia: No one’s even noticed that I’m dressed like Run DMC from the neck up.
The group has an ocean side lunch which sounds nice in theory but they spend the first part of it jumping around and trying not to get pummeled by waves. It’s the day after Cynthia’s wedding and Kenya has decided to present her with a gift. The gift is an autographed book co-authored by Vanessa Williams and her mom. Kenya presents it because she can not believe that Cynthia did not know that Vanessa Williams was the first Black Miss America. Obviously it was meant as a bit of a dig and Cynthia caught on to it immediately. Honestly, Cynthia was trying to “read” Kenya when she made the comment at the success party but it was a “misread” because as Kenya stated, everyone knows that Vanessa was the first. I get what Cynthia was trying to say but she could’ve pulled that off better. Cynthia explains that she’s well versed in history, just not pageants, and will read the book cover to cover.
“Great! Here’s the first cover. You’re halfway done!”
If you like it, spread it!:

Thanks for the non-stop laughter! Good to go to bed in a good mood.
Damn! Apollo really knows how to tongue a big hole… “sorry”
Great recap!
I like Nene, Phaedra, and Kandi a lot this season. They seem like they are having a good time despite their contractual obligations to RHOA.
I did not think it was possible, but Cynthia is even more boring this season. But she did inadvertently provide the best reference of the recap: \The Bailey Agency/School? of Fashionable Magic and Dark Arts.\ Seriously, what is her \business\ exactly? Has she accomplished anything with it? Or is she just going to hawk booze like all the other \real\ housewives?
Porsha is definitely not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but she seems harmless enough. I just don’t think she is cut out to hang with these women over the long haul.
Kenya is beyond delusional. If she isn’t careful, she will be committed to a psych hospital someday! It is crystal clear to me why she isn’t married or a mother; no sane man can put up with her and she obviously hasn’t met the right kind of crazy guy. Btw, I *loved* the line \Kenya seems like she has time for bacterial vaginosis!\
I am soooo glad Kim is gone. She made my skin crawl with her fake hair, fake boobs, and endless whining. She truly was the most classless of the group, although admittedly that is not saying a whole lot.
Keep up the good work, LB!
@L Boogie I don’t know about now but back in the day Clermont Lounge was where everybody that did any kind of performance art or in a band played at least once a yr. And went to late at night after playing somewhere else. And after they got a Majestic special. And some birth control from the Plaza Pharmacy.
It’s true people do strip there. Including some older people. But it’s so not a strip club. There’s not really any way to explain the Clermont Lounge. Except that Bravo doesn’t have any business even knowing about it. Much less shooting scenes there. It’s for artists. Not them.
That’s so weird how you mentioned Cynthia being dressed up like Run DMC. Because I was just getting tuned up to say I don’t think Greggg’s got isn’t the regular kind of developmental sickness.
He’s got the Suburban Husband Syndrome. Like Rev Run. 1 of the symptoms is when they can’t be around a pool without taking a fish net to it. They’ll stay there an hour trying to get 1 leaf. Like it was a game at 6 Flags where they could win a big plush duck.
I’ve started hoping Porsha’s playing a character. Even though that’d mean she’s also playing us. It’s just I hate to see so much shame brought on that family.
Anyway she’s lying about her part in the twirl fight. She totally called Kenya out of her name. They even ran tape to prove it. I think Kenya did it 1st. But still.
Kenya made me mad including Walter in her abuse too. Even if she wasn’t paying him we haven’t seen him do 1 abusive thing to her. Not wanting to marry somebody doesn’t count as abuse. Shoot, we’d all be in jail. Serving a consecutive term for every single victim.
He hasn’t made her any promises. He even told her family straight up that he does want to settle down 1 day. But they’re just getting to know each other. That’s as polite as you can get if somebody makes you meet their family when it’s way too early days and or something you know’s not ever going to be serious.
The same way “anything can happen” is the polite way to say “no way no how” to somebody without hurting their feelings. No matter how much she paid him you know he didn’t sign up to get called an abuser. Or for her to try to trick him into saying he’d marry her on tv. I wonder if he could sue her for sexual harrassment.
What you know about the Clermont Lounge kthxbai?!?!!?
It’s an Atlanta landmark. Everyone must go as least once and have Blondie crush a beer can with her boobs for you.
IMO all of the RHA people are as dumb as a bag of rock. I listen to them and think” WTF they are saying and why?”. All “husbands” seem so dumb and uneducated. Walter has a really stupid and glassy-eyed face. Porsha, Cynthia, Peter, Appolo, Porsha’s husband, and the rest of MENSA Atlanta Edition memebers… You just know that even though the wheel is spinning, the hamster is long dead.
P.S. I love how Kandy manages to talk through closed mouth, yet chews with her big mouth wide open. Klassy!
Phaedra is pregnant again. Just thought I’d mention that since my captcha is carry on.
piggy backing Cali…Nene is supposedly engaged again to Gregg.
I would think that f-ing Apollo would be much more enjoyable that f-ing Gregg.
I was too distracted by Cynthia’s god-awful blue / grey / gunmetal eyeshadow for the past three episodes to really give a shit about anything else.
Don’t get me wrong, I love me some color….but it aint working for her and what she’s wearing.
@aliens. I thought I was the only one grossed out by the way Kandi eats. Her lips are always greasy and her lower jaw rotates around like a cow chewing its cud. A cow wearing too much lipgloss, that is.
@L Boogie, are you on Twitter? Cuz, I’d love to know your thoughts on this show as it’s happening in real time…..
@Derek Hazelton, I’m on Twitter @RealLaurenSmith. I’m one of those weirdos who doesn’t totally get how to use it so I don’t that much BUT I like your idea! This’ll be my new thing for 2013. I’m trying new things everyday, 265 things to be exact.
LOL, the only reason I suggest it is because @belowsealevel tweeted with me and @Gypsy during RHONY. It’s actually a great time to live tweet with others (plus, it’s a shorthanded way to remember the show without having to watch it 3 or 4 times!). My asking was more selfish than anything else. If I blow up your Twitter on Sunday nights, don’t block me!
I’m @dqh257 on there, so I’ll find and “follow” you.
Kenya’s crazy eyes creep me out….I hope it’s an act, but what we’ve heard about her…….hmmmm, not so much.
