Funny, I never pictured you as a "Housewives" or "Sweet 16" viewer!

It's interesting too that it's coming out now that with NeNe and some of the other women the show was doing quite a bit of creative packaging and resume fluffing to make them seem more interesting. It seems a lot of their charity work, business ventures, etc. were kind of like Kim's singing ability - a figment of their imagination.

I would also like to point out that several of the Most Stuntin' Celebrity Sweet 16 Parties prominently featured Atlanta and Atlantans.

Nobody can deny that we're in the big leagues now.
or that we just finance it to look like we are in the big league. ;-)

So let me get this straight, you didn't see the entire episode, you noticed that they were all black, you were not impressed BUT you say you have nothing against black people. I find your comments to be very suspect. Did you have these same feelings about the previous Housewives show when the cast was all white? Were you not impressed as well with how they acted and how they represented their city. These shows are all the same no matter what color. This type of behavior is typical of nouveau rich people. People with real wealth and class will NEVER appear on a tv show talking about how wealthy they are. Clearly, Bravo knows how to create shows to get high ratings and provide lots of entertainment.

Oh and just to clear something up. Neither one of the women featured on the show lived in Atlanta or Buckhead. And to suggest that the city of Atlanta gets a bad message because of BET/Rap/Hip Hop is such an asinine statement that it doesn't even deserve a response.
