    NeNe Leakes and Kim Zolciak on Current 'RHOA' Stars: 'They Strategically Plan' Drama

    Instagram

    in a new episode of Instagram Live show called ‘Cocktails After Dark’, NeNe and the former ‘RHOA’ star also talk about whom they want to bring back on the Bravo reality TV show.
    Apr 6, 2020
    AceShowbiz – NeNe Leakes and Kim Zolciak reunited in a new episode of Instagram Live show called “Cocktails After Dark”, which was first launched on Friday, April 3. At one point, the topic of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” was unsurprisingly brought up in the conversation during the episode.
    “If you could change someone on the current cast, and bring someone from the past … who would you bring back?” NeNe asked Kim, who starred on the Bravo show from 2008 to 2012. “I would definitely bring…I feel like me, you, Sheree [Whitfield] … I feel like the OG’s are the best. I mean, getting rid of somebody?”
    In response, Kim alluded that the current “RHOA” stars were faking their storylines. “I think it’s all just gotten to the point that they live in fantasy land. It’s not all real. They aren’t showing their real side, their real life.” NeNe agreed, adding, “I feel like when we started, we were quite different. We were raw. We were just saying anything, and doing anything — we were having a good time, and we told our real stories. I’’m not saying that they don’t, but I’m saying they think about it.”
    “I think they think about it, and I think they strategically plan it out,” Kim echoed the sentiment. “For us, we were just kind of being who we were. We had no idea where this was going to go. I don’t know if you guys know this, but I wasn’t ever supposed to be on it because it was supposed to be an all African American cast.”
    During the Instagram Live, Kim revealed that “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” was originally titled “Ladies of Atlanta”. “So we did this pilot, we had so much fun … and I was like ‘are we doing a porno? WTF do you mean ‘Ladies of Atlanta?’ ‘ I had no idea it was Housewives. That was 13 years ago,” Kim, who is currently starring on her spin-off series “Don’t Be Tardy…”, recalled.

    'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' Stars to Reunite Digitally for Season 12 Finale Due to COVID-19

    Bravo TV

    Kandi Burruss, cast member of the Bravo show, makes public the online plan during an Instagram Live stream, claiming the text messages discussion between the girls was a mess.
    Apr 6, 2020
    AceShowbiz – The stars of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” will reunite digitally to mark the end of the show’s 12th season amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
    Production for the show was halted because of the health crisis, but during an Instagram Live stream, Kandi Burruss revealed she and her co-stars will be filming this season’s reunion online.
    “They let us know the other day that we are going to… have to do, I guess, an online type of reunion situation,” she explained.
    Kandi also teased the drama between the stars is continuing offscreen, adding: “Some of the girls was going back and forth, you would’ve thought it had been a reunion on the text messages (sic).”
    “I said, ‘Damn! Can y’all save all this for the actual reunion? We don’t get paid for your text messages to be all out of pocket, you know what I mean?’.”
    “It’s a mess,” Kandi added. “I don’t know if y’all have been catching the shade here and there on some of the blogs, but the shade got real real on the text yesterday.”

    The season finale of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” is set to air on April 10. Bravo bosses have yet to confirm plans for the reunion special.

    Coronavirus Movie Is Being Developed by Director Eric Spade Rivas

    The filmmaker, who helmed the ‘Vamp Biker’ series, claims the film project, titled ‘Duke of York’, will be ‘sort of a stand against xenophobia’ and will cover people’s desperation amid this crisis.
    Apr 6, 2020
    AceShowbiz – A coronavirus pandemic movie is in the works from director Eric Spade Rivas.
    The filmmaker, who helmed the “Vamp Biker” series, told the New York Post’s Page Six he’s started filming a project about the COVID-19 crisis – despite his actors being in isolation.
    Rivas said he shot footage of the empty city over the weekend from his car, and the actors – including porn star Ron Jeremy and nightlife fixture Noel Ashman – are sending him clips of themselves performing their scenes, which he’s editing together.
    The film, titled “Duke of York”, is about a dastardly movie producer who tries to trick a director into killing an Asian actor in a misguided attempt to take revenge for the disease.
    “It’s sort of a stand against xenophobia, and also about people’s desperation during this time,” Rivas explained.
    Political and media figures, including U.S. leader Donald Trump, have come under fire for their rhetoric surrounding the global health crisis, with the American President describing COVID-19 as the “Chinese virus” and “Kung flu” – seemingly referencing the city of Wuhan, China, where the outbreak began in December (19).
    A release date for the project remains unknown.

    'American Idol' Recap: Top 21 Is Revealed With Major Twist

    ABC/Gavin Bond

    In the new episode of the ABC singing competition show, the remaining contestants hit the stage in Hawaii to earn the coveted 12 spots left in the Top 20.
    Apr 6, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “American Idol” returned with a new episode on Sunday, April 5. In the new episode, the remaining contestants hit the stage in Hawaii to earn the coveted 12 spots left in the Top 20.
    Dillon James opened the show with a performance Bob Dylan’s “The Times They Are a-Changin’ ” and it was totally stunning, enough to convince the judges that Dillon was worth to be put in the Top 20. Genavieve Lincowski, however, was eliminated.
    Joining Dillon in the Top 20 was Franklin Boone, who wowed judges Katy Perry, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie with a performance of “Daughters” by John Mayer. Julia Gargano, who sang “Glitter in the Air” by Pink, and Aliana Jester also made it to the Top 20.
    Next up were Sophia Wackerman and Kimmy Gabriela. Their performances were not disappointing, so they were sent to the next round. Meanwhile, that night marked the end of Robert Taylor and Shannon Gibbons’ journey on the show.
    More singers were sent to the Top 20, including Cyniah Elise, Makayla Phillips, Lauren Spencer-Smith, Olivia Ximines and unsurprisingly frontrunner Arthur Gunn. Later, Demi Rae hit the stage to belt out a stellar performance of Noah Cyrus’ “Lonely”. However, the judges didn’t think it was Top 20 material so she was eliminated.
    That left 2 final singers–Lauren Mascitti and Grace Leer. Grace sang a rendition of Aretha Franklin’s “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman”. Meanwhile, Lauren took the stage to perform “Two More Bottles of Wine” by Emmylou Harris. The two country singers were both stunning, so the judges left the decision to the viewers through a voting.

    Voting will close on Tuesday, April 7 at 9 A.M. E.T.

    Sarah Hyland Calls 'Modern Family' Ending Disappointing

    Cosmopolitan Magazine/Kerry Hallihan

    The Haley Dunphy depicter doesn’t seem to look forwards to the upcoming final episode of her long running TV series because she’s less than impressed with the ending.
    Apr 5, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Sarah Hyland was disappointed with the way “Modern Family” ended for her character Haley Dunphy.
    The 29-year-old actress starred as Haley in the hit U.S. TV show from its start in 2009 to its final episode, which will air on April 8, 2020. But while fans are desperately waiting to see how the programme draws to a close, Sarah told America’s Cosmopolitan magazine that she was left somewhat deflated when she saw how it finished for her on-screen alter ego.
    Telling the publication that she wished she could have seen Haley “own her bada*sery (sic) in the fashion world – becoming a badass stylist or brand mogul or anything like that, Sarah then reflected that it would have been equally exciting to see her become a working mother after welcoming twins.”

    “There are so many amazing mothers who are also hard workers and excel at their jobs and kill it every day in both aspects,” she said. “That would have been a really cool thing to see, especially from someone like Haley.”

    The 19th in-person annual festival set to take place in New York City mid-month (April) has been postponed due to the coronavirus, but now film buffs will have a chance to experience movies, juries, awards and other elements of the assembly on the Internet.

We were founded after the devastation of 9/11 (2001 New York City terrorist attacks) and it’s in our DNA to bring communities together through the arts.”
    The festival will take place online on The Tribeca Industry Extranet Resource Hub on 15-26 April, the same dates as the original in-person gathering was due to take place.
