Celeb Style: Monica Stars in Her Own Reality Show
Photo by Freddyo Exclusively for Sandrarose.com
I’m not a big fan of reality TV shows, but I will watch Monica’s reality show which is currently taping in Atlanta. Monica sent text messages to her fans letting them in on all the details. Listen to the message below.

Now you know she is just biting Diddy’s idea for selling an album right? Does this mean you will lighten up on Day 26 for getting an advantage from being on TV?
sandra i’m not sure this is monica’s show. it’s the real housewives of atlanta. so, there will be other’s on their…just a fyi cause i know this is your girl…
I am sure with her on there it is going to be striaght ghetto fab.
@ brwnsugga4you:
who is she a “housewife” of lol? she’s a “house baby momma”…
So Atlanta is having a real housewives as well. That might be interesting even though Ive never seen the housewives of orange county nor new york. However Atlanta might have a little flavor. I may tune in. I had no clue Monica was married. Congrats to her.
I must say she comes off as being humble, sweet and an inspiration to others AND I’ve always enjoyed her music. HOWEVER, if this show she’s promoting is the Housewives of Atlanta . . she needs to keep it real bc/ she ain’t a housewife, she’s a single mother with two children and an infamous baby daddy that is a thug and won’t acknowledge her in public b/c that is just what thugs do as Sandra has indicated in past blogs. NOW, if she’s doing a reality show exclusively about her life, being a single mother while maintaining her music career, MINUS “Old Boy”, I’ll the show.
woops typo “I’ll watch the show.”
# 3…i concur.
Not feeling this one. I know nothing about Monica but I have watched the other housewife shows and I don’t think she should do this.
These women are not put in a good light. In fact that’s what makes the show so good there’s dirt on top of dirt. Being good and sweet is not entertaining. Oh well Whatever.
Also in regards to her not being a housewife. The other shows OC and NY always have one woman that’s not married but they do have a serious relationship going. Not saying anything against Monica but to explain how a non housewife would be on the show.
I aint mad at Mo- love her and always have. Imma watch the show-sounds like she is living and learning and she got a little bit to share-
Sandra,
How do you listen to a text message? I’m at work and can’t pull up any streaming audio. Is this a text or a voicemail? I wouldn’t watch the show even if I had cable.
I love her music, but I will not be checking for this BS.
I’m glad she’s makin money and doin her thing. However, I dont think she should be on a show that promotes housewives considering she’s not an actual housewife. Hell, to be honest, Atlanta is the baby mama capital. I didnt even know they allowed wives to reside there for long periods of time. I kid, I kid
Yawn … won’t be watching it …. how can a “peeps” be a housewife ? ? ? ?
AND … 2 stacks for that ugly bag … money don’t always buy style .. that bag is Hideous
the show isn’t the housewives of atlanta……………yall hating chics need to give it up…………….all in monica biznezz not knowing the first , on a message board displaying all of your ignorance. Monica we got you and we are going to support you because you never cheated us as fans. Lonely hoes worried about your own situation, her and rock raising them kids together and are engaged
So, JrBail, enlighten us with the correct information. what is the show about?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No, Monica has her own show coming out. I know who’s on The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Thank you jrbail!!! Monica is not going to be on the Real Housewives of Atlanta! SMH at how simple some of you are. You take a d.a.m.n. rumor and run with it like you already saw the previews on Bravo… WOW and the dumbassness of it.
@bloggergirlz Says:
Well, if you watch the show some of them aren’t married yet. Black woman always want to down the next woman who’s feeding their kids. Whether she a wife or a babymoma those kids are being feed.
jrnail are you doin Monica or something because I do not find her entertaining. She is just as washed up as Brandy and does reflect a real housewife. True she dosen’t need to be maried to be on the show but at the same time the chick is ghetto, tryin to hang on to her past when she is a has been. That’s it.

JrBail, don’t know what the hell it’s about! It’s being advertised as Housewives of Atlanta! Bottom call me a hater if you want, Monica ain’t no damn housewife! Keep it real.
lol @ jrbail! sometimes you have to wonder how old some of these “posters” are on here! i think it’s a majority young fan base.
but i will be watching the show just b/c i’m a fan of monica…..like i watched dancing with the stars last season to see my boy mayweather….and i’ve been watching it again to see how mario is doing.
i bet some of these same folks on here always calling monica out for not being married probably got 2-3 baby daddies! and ain’t with NONE OF ‘EM!
LOL @ kat & jrbail!!!!!!!! I will be watching too.
It’s already been explained Monica is not on the real housewives of Atlanta so let it go..big ups to her doing her thing regardless if she’s married or not..as for the washed up comment..until you’ve had the success she’s had fallback..be more encouraging to a sista holding it down
@ MsIT:
i’m glad to see monica has a cheerleader on here, but be easy…it was a joke (for the person who left the post)…besides, she is a damn baby momma NOT a wife…as far as the show is concerned, someone already made the point, so there’s no need for you to be redundant…
OMG, some of yall are literally a hot ignorant mess!! Did Sandra and JRbail just CLARIFY that Monica is NOT on the Real Housewives of Atlanta? OK, so forget what you think you know and move the hell on……Now on a POSITIVE note, Congratz to Monica on the new show! I will be watching. I think it is a great way to reintroduce herself to the public. Back in 95, everybody loved and knew Monica. But over time with ALL the new breed of singers, she just kinda got lost in the midst (never in my eyes tho Mo!) of them all. By doing the reality show will help people get a feel for her and the woman she is now vs. the child she was in 95!! And I know Mo will def keep it REAL on the show!!! Unlike allot of these reality show. And come on now, its another great way to sell records!! Its all about the PROMO!! As Ive said before, get that Monica brand BACK together MO!!! You RULED in 98 and 99!! Its a different day, you cant just be a singer, you have to have your hands in everything to be successful. Im so proud of Monica for taking control of her career cuz as a HUGE fan, I was starting to wonder if she still even cared. Do IT BIG MO!! LOL…As always, may God continue to bless you and have favor over your life!! And as you would say, dont let yesterdays disapointments interfere with tomorrows promises!! I love you Monica Denise Arnold!!! LOL!! Cant wait for ya return!!!
@ 25….Thanks for saying that. Some people are just mean for no reason. I always say this, its one thing to have an opinion (everybody has one) but its a totally diff thing when you are trying to be mean and spiteful. Thats not an opinion, thats IGNORANCE!!! Which is def not a good look!! So what if she not married!!! Half of these mofos on here are out of wedlock or done had kids out of wedlock…tryin to judge Monica and her situation. Okay fine you disagree with her lifestlye, but be a little more encouraging of the sista. Thats whats wrong with black people now. We can never uplift each other. Always want to tear each other down. I’ll never understand that about us as a race. And as far as the GHETTO comment? Listen to the message again, does she sound ghetto? What makes her “ghetto”. Because she grew up in the inner city and doesnt hide the fact that she did? Because she has tatoos? I mean what is ghetto? SHe is a very intelligent, beautiful, smart, God fearing black woman (who happens to be a millionare). Thats how I see her. But im done…
Yall Funny … Glad to see Monica’s Fan Club is Quick on the draw …. but take it down a bit .. sheesh .. just like yall are her true fans .. there are some who aren’t … laffin
Who explained that the show is not the “Housewives of Atlanta?! Monica was vague on the text tape she didn’t really say what the show was about specifically. .AND Sandra has been wrong on a number of ocassions about information she’s provided, THEREFORE until the show is actually advertised on BRAVO or whatever network is handling the show, NOTHING HAS BEEN EXPLAINED. Whether she’s married or not (with or without children) isn’t the issue for me. My issue is that I have a problem with people, celebrity and/or otherwise, portraying to be something their not. I call them phony people. If the show is about her life as a mom, the pursuit of “re-establishing” her music career, and how she maintains as an individual (spiritually/emotionally) I’ll watch it. HOWEVER, if it turns out to be a bunch of buffoonery and GHETTO MESS. . .I won’t support it because I chose not to allow society to continue to portray (pimp) people of color as a bunch of low class, no moral fiber, tasteless, uneducated group of people (i.e. Flavor of Love, I love NY and all that other mess they show on the idiot box).
AND not everyone one on this post is “young” with multiple children and various sperm donors.
I ain’t hating on anybody. . .I’m just saying, lol.
MOREOVER, Sandra ain’t always singing high praises and blessing about everyone and/or the information she posts and her comments can sometimes be down right harsh and bitter and nasty, I might add. . .THEREFORE, I guess she should be thrown in the barrel with the rest of the ignorant folks.
Sorry for throwing you under the bus Sandra, but I am just saying, lol.
@ 30…and I can def respect that. You sound like one of the minority on here that have a point and know how to articulate it. As far as the reality show, Sandra did clarify that she KNOWS who is on the housewives show. Yea Sandra is not always right, but who is? Furthermore, where did your info come from that said she is apart of the Real Housewives of Atlanta show? You also mentioned you will watch it if its not BUFFOONERT and GHETTO, which I can respect. Shh, Im the same way. Flavor of Love and I Love NY has got to go!! But why would you think it would even be that? Has Monica ever acted in such manner? I dont recall. To clarify, I said, the MAJORITY of people on here talking about Monica and her “baby daddy” are in her say position. Just without the money, carrer and love. So if that dont fit you, more power to you.
LOL @ all the back and forth over nothin!!!
Does it really matter if its the Real Housewives of Atlanta or not? If you’re gonna watch the show then watch it, if not simmer down cuz it’s not that serious, lol. I have been a huge Monica fan since ‘95 so I will check it out if I have time.
LOL, I shouldve read over my post….I meant to say…”To clarify, I said, the MAJORITY of people on here talking about Monica and her “baby daddy” are in her same position. Just without the money, career and love”……..
i didnt know she was gonna be on the show, but that’s wassup. nba’r eric snow’s wife, i think her name is deshawn; has her own real estate company here in atlanta, is on the show too.
it should be interesting. i’ll watch.
I cant stand reality shows. I wonder when we going to get back to a good ole sitcom. At least we knew they were fake - these reality shows seemed staged - but hey can’t knock the hustle so Monica get that money!
Stop Hating! Loves Monica!! And I love reality shows so I will definitely be tuning in. I don’t understand why she would be on Real Housewives of ATL though. Also thanks for breaking down her outfit…lol There should be a spot on the site where you show comparisons of how to get the look for less. Because I would have never thought that outfit was that expensive! I love her style but give me about 45 mins and I can piece that whole fit together with a very similar outfit for a fraction of the cost!
I LOVE me some Monica. She is authentic, talented and beautiful. I will ALWAYS support her!
Dallas,
I respect your opinion also. Just to respond to a few of your inquiries . . .Sandra’s word (unfortunately) ain’t as good as gold, therefore, the fact that she stated that she “KNOWS”, like every place else we get our information (i.e. mostly blogs and entertainment news), we, too, have to take it all with a grain of salt.
Side Bar: Sorry Sandra for the second bus running over you, but it is what it is.
I am only hoping that Monica will “not” sell her soul just for TV time (money can make you do strange things). . .you know if she’s not the creative writer and has a “voice” in the production, what other direction can the show go, but “south”. . .”some” folks want to be entertained with drama and nonsense and that’s what reality TV provide. I’ve always thought Monica appeared to be sweet, charming, articulate and loves her momma and dem chilens! I am doubly hoping “Ole Boy” ain’t bounce around in his drawers, eatin greasy chickens and keepin it “hood”. . .I honestly try not to judge folks b/c that same measure will be used to judge me . .er’body has had a situation or “two”, shoot maybe “three” . .we are people of color spilling with emotion and we hope in others where we lack hope in ourself . . .shoot I don’t know where this is going . .as I am on a small tangent. . .LMAO . .anywho!! the mature dialogue (Q and A) was interesting for a change.
I’m still waiting to see the finale of “I Married A Baller”…and here it is they’re talking about Season 2.
Monica seems really sweet and I know she can sing, but she better bring it with the first two episodes, otherwise people won’t stick around for the rest–the market is too flooded with reality shows.
Congrats to Monica on her album and reality show!!!
I will definately check this out!!!
That is a very cute purse also!!!
I think Monica will hold it down for all of the young mothers taking care of business. She is a beautiful young lady and extreamly talented. I’ve been a huge fan from day one. btw thanks for the info on the gear. i was just looking at that shirt and wondering where i could get it.
I LUV MONICA CAN’T WAIT TILL IT COMES, I WILL BE WATCHING IT GO M0NICA LUV U GIRL DO UR THANG.YALL NEED TO STOP HATING AN SUPPORT HER IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT SHE IS SHE’S A MOTHER,THATS ALL. SO GO MO DO UR THANG. LUV U MO MO
LOL @ people jumping to conclusions.
I LOVE MONICA FOR THAT MESSAGE, BECAUSE POSITIVITY IS WHAT I PROMOTE EVERYDAY AND I HAVE TO SAY THAT I AM LEARNING TO TAKE IT A STEP FORWARD BY ERASING THE NEGATIVE WORDS SUCH AS TRY, AM, I THINK, GOING, AND OTHERS THAT PROMOTE A STALL IN MY PATH AND I SEE THE DIFFERENCE WHEN I PRACTICE NOT PLACING THEM WITHIN MY VOCAB AND INSTEAD I SEE MYSELF “DOING” LOL INSTEAD OF “TRYING” I LOVE GOD AND THE PEOPLE HE HAS PLACED WITH MY LIFE AND THAT MESSAGE HAS LIFTED MY SPIRITS WAY HIGHER TODAY THAN IT WAS YESTERDAY……SANDRA PLEASE TELL MONICA THANKS AND THAT WE APPRECIATE THE POSITIVITY AND MOTIVATION TO SUCCEED AND MAKE THE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE WE LOVE YOU MONICA!!!
Monica seems to spent a LOT of money on clothes! This whole outfit is well over a grand…I mean $200 for a cardigan?? I guess the 90s have been good to Monica!
I knew it was bound to turn into this…regardless of what the show is a girlfriend can’t be a housewife-it makes her a housegirlfriend (housefiance- for those of you who just insist). What message is a wifey wannabe sending?
i mean i would see if Monica was a stuck up artist, but Monica is one of the sincere and approachable stars we know. She’s a respectable and respectful young successful black woman. She always take her time out to acknowledge people and she represent this city everywhere she goes. My thing is that you black females ought to start bracing each other instead of pulling each other down. God made yall too beautiful for that man
you’re right, we as black women should expect more for ourselves and from our men and stop settling for promise rings……..

No, Monica has her own show coming out. I know who’s on The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
~~~thanks sandra for clarifying~~~~and since jrbail #16 is her #1 fan..and all of us on this site is hating (not sure how he gathered that info based on our opinions)…i don’t want hate mail showing up in my mailbox…lol.
Blah blah blah…who cares about another reality show? Make some good records and that’s all the reality this fan needs! Reality show in my opinion are lame and for a gifted star like yourself Monica…you would definately be playing yourself! Most reality shows come about when one’s career is at the end of the road. Yours I believe have a few more years in the music game. try getting a good script to do a movie and I am sure people will take you serious. From a true veteran in the Game!
Yay for monica! I’m more so glad that she’ll be showing her face alot more this go round; as far as her reality show, just to see her go through the stages of her album and possibly get a listen in on her first single is as well a sight to see.. By the way thanks for the notice sandra!!
Much Love & Success for everyone!
“Life must be lived forward but can only be understood backwards”..
I use to love Monica back in the day she and Aaliyah were my Beyonces of the 90’s. Me and my cousin use to debate over who was better she or Brandy. And I would always say Monica sings much better than Brandy. I use to get so mad at how long Monica use to make us fans wait for her albums. I swear she took forever to release another album after Miss Thang. And now im like ohhhh ok Monica she stayed out the limelight too long for me and now a lot of big fans from back in the day aren’t checkin for her like that anymore. But then again I was in my early teens. I still got luv for her but she just doesn’t SANG like she use to.
oh yea that girl Tiffany Evans reminds me a lot of Monica when Monica first came out with Don’t Take It Personal. OMG bringing back the memories and then Before You Walk Out My Life and Why I Love You So Much and that slow jam with Usher. YESSSS! OMG that’s the Monica I loooooooooooooooooove! No lezbo though just loved her voice.
ZULEY I AGREE WITH YOU ON THOSE SONGS EPECIALLY THE REMAKE OF MISTY BLUE AND ANGEL OF MINE!!! I COULD PLAY ALL HER SONGS STRAIGHT WHEN I WAS YOUNGER AND BE IN MY ROOM HAVING MY PARENTS WANDER WHY I SOUNDED LIKE A SCREACHING CAT….LOL!!!
