Sunday’s episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta saw a crash course in parenting, a birthday behind bars and a make-up free brunch.
You know. As you do in the ATL. Let’s break it on down …
Picking up where last week left off, The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 8 Episode 12 saw Kim Fields throw an event for the ages.
If you watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta online, you know she’s been struggling for screen time this season. Well, problem solved.
Kim decided to throw a “beat less” brunch, meaning women should come with minimal makeup. On this show, that’s quite the request.
Kandi Burruss, despite her strong reservations, followed the rules, as did Phaedra Parks, Sheree Whitfield and Cynthia Bailey alike.
Porsha Williams did not because she was coming straight from Dish Nation. Kenya Moore did not … because she didn’t feel like it.
“I’m a grown a$ $ woman,” Kenya declared, believing that the entire concept was a personal attack on her personal make-up usage.
“I don’t need to be told what I look like to others. If I go out looking like a clown or garish, that’s how I choose to present myself.”
“I don’t think anybody should tell me how I should look,” she went on, and that’s what I didn’t appreciate in the invitation.”
Moore also isn’t a fan of Fields’ work, to put it mildly.
“She is so freaking pompous and arrogant,” Kenya said. “Tyler Perry literally directed the episode she was supposed to be directing.”
In any event, Kim encouraged the ladies to admire their “natural” beauty and gives them a pen and paper to write a poem on the topic.
Kenya, to put it mildly, was not a fan of the exercise.
“Where is the natural beauty, because you have two boob jobs and you’re wearing a wig,” Moore said. “Is that part of your poem?”
Kim said she wasn’t shading anybody, however.
“This is a celebration,” she said. You buy it?
Meanwhile, Phaedra and Ayden got creative to in order celebrate Apollo’s birthday, as he’ll be behind bars for the next eight YEARS.
Also, Kandi and Todd Tucker meet with a baby instructor who recommends breastfeeding until their youngster is 3-4 years old.
Kandi is even less cool with that than wearing no makeup. As for Todd, he’s never had to deal with a newborn before, so …
He didn’t do a bad job changing diapers, but a real kid might be a little bit toughter. Todd also wants a nanny. [Crickets.]
