PICS: The Real Foreclosed And Bankrupt Housewives Of Atlanta Premiere Party

The Real Foreclosed And Bankrupt Housewives of Atlanta road show rolled into Atlanta last night for a premiere party at the W Hotel. The guests who attended the event are the types who slow down and crawl past multiple car pile ups on the highway. Never mind that by the time they get to the wreckage there’s nothing left to see because the mangled bodies have been covered up or transported to the hospital.

In the case of the road show at the W Hotel last night, the bodies were still there for all to see. But instead of being covered in blood, they were draped in designer rags (with the tags still attached). In every picture they grinned and primped and preened — all the while hoping not to spill anything on their designer rags so everything can go back to the boutique for a full refund.

It was harder deciding who to feel sorry for: the “housewives” who think they’re celebrities because they display their dysfunctional lives on national TV for the world to see, or the well-heeled guests who flocked to the road show to sweat out their perms so they could have something to tell their friends.

I won’t be watching the Real Foreclosed and Bankrupt Housewives Of Atlanta when it premieres because I don’t find scripted ghetto buffoonery entertaining at all. But the show will probably garner high ratings because, sadly, we’re in a recession and the hoodrats have a need to escape into a world where the ghetto fabulous hoodrats on TV are more pitiful than they are.

Kim K and Reggie Bush Split Because She Couldn’t Have Kids?

TV personality and socialite Kim Kardashian is slamming rumors that she and longtime boyfriend Reggie Bush broke up because she couldn’t have kids. So the rumors must be true then, eh? I figure if the rumors weren’t true she wouldn’t be so salty about such false allegations.

Here’s what Kim K wrote on her blog yesterday:

“It’s been reported online that I can’t have children of my own and that’s totally false. I said I would love to have my own children. If I weren’t able to then adopting might be an option. How does that translate into I cannot have kids!? If you read anything online saying I can’t have children, those are totally false stories. Some media outlets are just taking what I said to PEOPLE.com and twisting it!”

Pseudo-celebrity attention whores are such weirdos.

Feds Raid Dr. Murray’s Las Vegas home

According to online reports, federal agents, armed with search warrants, raided Dr. Conrad Murray’s Las Vegas home today. As you know, Dr. Murray is the last person to see pop icon Michael Jackson alive before Jackson died of a heart attack on June 25.

Police believe Dr. Murray fell asleep after infusing Jackson with IV Diprivan (Propofol) and then awoke to find Jackson dead.

Diprivan is a potent short-acting sedative used to induce anesthesia in a hospital setting. Patients receiving Diprivan intravenously should be carefully monitored for a drop in blood pressure/and or decreased respiratory rate that could lead to respiratory arrest and cardiac arrest.

It is recommended that Diprivan be administered slowly to prevent a dangerous drop in blood pressure. The rate of infusion should ideally be controlled by an IV machine or Diprivan can be titrated slowly by hand. But under no circumstance should the patient be left alone while the IV is infusing.

Diprivan is not available by prescription, therefore, the feds are searching for the source of the drug and how it came into Dr. Murray’s possession.

According to TMZ.com, feds also served a search warrant on a storage facility in Houston where associates of Dr. Murray stored files and other items. Dr. Murray’s staff removed items from the storage locker the day Jackson died.

FanMAIL: Former Kool Aid Drinker Sees The Light

Sandra:

I’m a regular visitor to your website and usually I don’t agree with what you write.. .especially about Beyonce:-)

But, lately I have opened my eyes to what’s really going on with the Obama administration. Yes, I have stopped drinking the kool aid:-). I remember last year I couldn’t wait to vote for him and did everything I could to get him in the office. I volunteered many weekends for his cause because I did believe he was the change we needed.

Well, here I am today wondering why people easily forget that the same rule that applied in the past still exist today just with a black face on it.

He’s not to blame but people really need to see who is behind the curtain pulling his strings. I am no longer voting for either party because it really don’t matter.

Oh by the way, I am originally from Kenya but a citizen of the U.S… so please let your readers know that I’m not an old white lady upset because he is black.

Thanks for opening my eyes about Obama.

Please lay off Beyonce:-)

Sincerely,
Slim




 

FanMAIL: Skip Gates is a fraud

Hi. Ms. Rose,

I came across a great article about what a fraud Skip Gates is…it’s kind of lengthy but I thought you may be interested in it. http://www.counterpunch.org/reed07272009.html

Also I don’t know if you are familiar with the blog Whataboutourdaughters but she has a great critique of Gates on her blog too.

I was on the side of Gates, but after reading your blog and both articles it is clear to me that Gates is an opportunist to put it lightly. I have no doubt that he escalated the situation with the officer in order to make a point and get some attention.

He’ll probably turn this into a money making opportunity in the form of a book or some racial profiling documentary.

Anyway thanks again for putting a different perspective out there.

Thanks,

Sarah
