The Real Housewives of Atlanta
I really thought I had an original idea with this one, but apparently those clever people over at Bravo are one step ahead of me. Rumor has it that the newest installment of “The Real Housewives” is currently being taped in Atlanta. Very cool. I don’t know any of the women that are featured, so I guess you shouldn’t expect to see me making any cameo appearances.
I’ll post updates as I receive them. The film crew was recently spotted at Brown & Company. Hmm…

So I recently attended a taping of the Real Housewives of Atlanta. To my surprise it was quite entertaining. I have had the rare opportunity to get an inside scoop on all of the hoopla that has been going down. I know that Sheree Whitfield is one of the housewives, but apparently she is a hot mess, and I am sure the show will air her ugly ways in pure tv entertainment. The woman was having a fashion show to show her new clothing line, but while all the guests watched her parade around to take pictures with her ex-husbands ex-teammates it was revealed that she actually had to hire male models to fill in because most men she knew didn’t even RSVP. We all waited around for showing of the new line “She” by Sheree, but low and behold, not a single article of clothing went down the runway, not even a bracelet. The food was jerk chicken puff pastries sans the chicken! The were cakes from a local bakery on display but they were never cut. I also was blessed to lend an ear to hear the liquor vender asking where the left over bottles were at the end of the night, to find out that Sheree had pulled a fast one and carried the cases out the back door before the event ended. On top of that, she only had one other housewife in attendance. How sick is it to steal liquor that someone has donated to front for your fake fashion line. She has spent numerous hours going around Atlanta trying to pimp people to give her things for free because of the taping but isn’t the show based on the fabulous lives of the rich and social? Everything she has is donated and she doesn’t spend a dime!!! She fires all of her help along the way, but hey she wasn’t evene paying them!! Hilarious! Good luck Sheree, you make the best tv villan yet!
OMG… Thanks so much for the great update! I can’t wait to see it all unfold and you’re right, it sounds like great TV!
This is absolutely ridiculous! Could this be one of the bitter staff who she doesnt pay? I too was at the “She by Sheree” event and can’t wait to see the photos! I met Sheree this night from apparently one of her friends or staff? I’m not sure of the relationship. I thought Sheree to be a very down to earth, beautiful black woman. I didn’t spend alot of time with her because yes, she was being pulled in every direction to take photographs. She was the guest of honor, thats how it goes. However, I thought the event went extremely well. It was one of the nicest events that I have been to in the Atl in awhile. The venue was very NY. The crowd was extremely attractive, just alot of beautiful people. The decor was fabulous. The ice sculpture with the “She” logo was awesome. The models pouring the martinis through the ice sculpture was sexy. I didn’t see food, so therefore I can’t comment on that. I saw male models that were painted with the “She” logo on their bodies. The one model was from the show “Make me a Super Model”. So yes, Im sure they were being paid. There were plenty of attractive men in the crowd, and obviously they must be friends of hers also. Regardless if they were friends of her EX too, they came to support her. They can’t have mutual friends? I too asked abt the fashion pieces and it was explained that the seamstresses she PAID to make the pieces did a horrible job and she refused to show pieces that were not up to par. I understand that all too well because it’s a reflection of her as well as her line. So, I took in the larger than life size sketchs that were blown up with gorgeous dresses. I will be eagerly awaiting the debut of the line if its reminiscent of the sketch’s. Stealing cakes and liquor??? get a life, seriously, Seriously! I doubt she doesnt pay for anything, as you say? That event was too fab to have been FREE! Companies donate some things but at the end of the day, unless she’s Beyonce or Jay Z, she’s paying! You seem to be a little too involved. Is this one of the bitter unpaid staff members! Darling, if you know your worth or your services are worthy of a check… why would you accept an unpaid position and then complain?? You sound ludicrous! I have not spoken with ANYONE who did NOT have a great time there. Perhaps you were fired because you were NOT on your “A” game??? or are you on your way to being fired? hmmm Your post has jeolousy and envy written all over it! Get over it, find a new position and move on. Your the reason black women can’t get ahead. I will keep you in my prayers, your pathetic.
Hilarious, I am not a bitter employee, I was a guest and yes the liquor was donated for three of her events along with the cakes from Alon’s! I know them cakes any where. No one is hating on the venue, it was cute. The ice sculptures with the martini’s getting poured was so Justin’s January 13th look at the pictures on ATLpic.net. The male models being painted lets keep it real didn’t we see that at Michael Knights party debuting his clothing line at Opera in February. Gosh she has angered that many past employees that you think it is a disgruntled employee. It keeps getting better!!! How bout postponing a party if your line isn’t ready, oh yeah, it wasn’t really about the line now was it. If you need to look at sketches to throw a party hey, why not throw it at the Art Institute, by the way I’m not black I’m the white girl friend of the liquor guy, I know the liquor is stolen for a fact!!! I am an equal opportunity hater. If it looks like a rat I call it a rat. Nice try honey, but you must be the event planner or a friend of Sheree’s. Let’s be real, ask around about her reputation, what happened to Bella Azul? And seriously, why wouldn’t her ex want to show up to see the train wreck?! Why didn’t any of the other housewives show up? Hmmm! Cause she is so nice right? I understand stay down for your team, but remember to jump right before the ship sinks!
I too went to the party on Sunday. I did think it was kind of odd how there were invites for a fashion show and there was no fashion show. Sheree is very pretty, but all we all did was stand around and watch her take pictures with people. The venue was cute but it was just really weird. It was over quickly and nothing happened.
I was also at Sheree Whitfield’s event, my husband and I have been friends with her for years. It amazes me, the venom and hatred that some people will spew. An event of that magnitude, at a venue like that does not come for free. You say you’re a friend of the the liquor distributor but as the other post said it sounds like your either jealous, or a fired employee.
How would you know such items as to where a cake came from, it could have come from Intermezzo, Cheese Cake Factory or other cake places in the metro Atlanta area. The cakes were not cut and I agree with that, but that was due to her “Publicist” and I use that term VERY loosely not overseeing and or delegating the cakes being cut, nor plates or forks. I didn’t eat, but I do remember seeing appetizers.
Pray tell, why on earth would Sheree need to STEAL liquor? Opened bottles of liquor are either thrown away because people can slip something in them or given to the restaurant, bar, etc. Unless you were directly involved in the details, and in which case dear I would be VERY carefully about what you say because we ALL signed a letter of confidentiality, which television networks take very seriously. Trust me when I tell you it is not hard to track where an email comes from, even with you trying to be the “anonymous white girl”, you can be sued by the network or for slander.
Sheree was talking to friends, networking with media, and enjoying the coming out of her New Line “She”. I for one know Sheree’s event Planner, and she is a professional who charges for her work. The Event Planner is fabulous, and between what she did for the event and the friend’s that assisted Sheree with the event, they really pulled it off! Never in all of the years that we have known her have I known her to be anything but a lady. You are definitely someone who does not know her.
The Dress maker for the designs did not do a job that was up to par of what was expected so Sheree nixed it last minute and had the designs. The Line is complete, I know because my husband who is CFO of a large retail company is interested in having her talk to some people about carrying the line.
Sheree is concentrating on her line and moving on in life, it was great to see a GROWN woman, having enough class to invite your ex-husband to your event. But you know what YOU don’t know Sheree so you wouldn’t know that she and her ex- husband have a very cordial relationship.
In regard’s to any other housewife being in attendance, you form relationship’s with people and invite people to event’s who are friends and associates . When you are paying for an event you invite who you like, not who you think will get attention. Sheree invited the friend’s she wanted to attend.
By the Way I am one of the other White women was in attendance.
Signed,
Supportive White Woman
Sheree and I have been friends for a very long time. I am proud of her efforts to put together a clothing line. I attended the “SHE” by Sheree event on Sunday evening. Matter of fact, I came in town just for this event. It was a very nice affair. The attendees looked amazing, red carpet, lights, cameras…fabulous! There were many people there with a supportive spirit. As I read through the posts I see there were people in attendance who only came to find fault. It is unfortunate that we as women (it appears that women are posting on this matter) refuse to support one another. Even if you felt that some things could have been handled better, the fact that Sheree is positioning herself to provide a better future for her children should be enough to encourage her, not tear her down.
This event was not about being a housewife, it was about her clothing line. I can verify that the clothes did not make it out on the floor and that is because the people she PAID to make the pieces did not do a job that was worthy of putting anyones name on them.
Who cares if the concept of having models pour drinks down the ice sculpture came from another party. The models were nice eye candy.
Stealing???? Out of the question.
Sheree is a lady and I am very proud to call her my friend and sister in Christ.
To you people that are getting on here trying to take up for that unhappy want to be,that never was need to stop it right now. You can not treat people like shyt and think it’s ok when you don’t have shyt yourself. I went to one of the events she had and i know for a fact that everything was donated for that fake Birthday party. I was asked to donate from my business. This was a good chance for Atlanta to be represented in a positive manner,but you losers saw it as a easy come up. “Get a life” what a way to represent fake it till you make it ATL. The real women of Atlanta need to kick yall azz,and that the real deal…. oh yeah all those people she had working for her did not get paid she was pimpin air time on Bravo. now the real deal has been sealed….Can’t wait to see the show anybody want to have a viewing party holla at ur gurl. Kiss Kiss
And by the way, the liquor that was donated from Diaggio, the Ciroc… yes you have to give them back the empty bottles and all unused liquor. The vender is trying to figure out how to make up for the stolen bottles in his budget now. I don’t care what company you worked for in the past, that is how they do it. The liquor man did not sign any confidienciality contract, she stole, he’s out and he’s talking about it. Hello!! Are ya’ll drunk on the ciroc now? Enjoy ladies…
a little FYI
I designed the SHE by sheree logo, business cards, and all graphics. . . I also have been working with this event planner for a while ( who by the way is not a girl )he’s a very respectful man who owns his own firm and has been doing this for 11yrs. I’ve only known Sheree for a short amount of time, but she’s already helped my business grow through referrals and through work for She by Sheree’. I look forward to working with Sheree and helping “She”, have the best visual appeal to any women . . .
(( and for the record Everyone was well paid. ))

Wow Seriously, you wake up thinking about her. I hope your a man! A woman that YOU choose to give THIS MUCH of YOUR TIME, EFFORT and THOUGHTS must be a “BAD B*tch”. You sound a bit threatened. Theres obviously a reason she’s on there, and YOUR NOT! Cant wait to watch!
Actually, no I wake up listening to how the liquor guy got in trouble at work and he has to clean up her mess! But you wake up every day and see what I write! Trust I know, am friends with and am a BAD B*tch myself. I just hate women who front and use people that are there to help them with good intentions. FYI Tia is a BAD B*TCH!!! Can’t wait to see her on the show!
Well I can tell you for a fact that this is going to be a trip! I do know first hand on most of the taping. I am no longer working with the show and they should be about finished. But it is trully interesting to see what people will do to make sure they are portrayed as top notch on the show…. even if they have to Lie about what they really have…..LOL going to be crazeeeee!!! I think you all are going to enjoy it! It’s T.V we all like drama! LOL
I really didn’t anticipate this to be a venting area for or against Sheree Whitfield, but I am glad that out of all the comments it sounds like there is actually a show in production.
Sheree it is very clear and obvious that you are responding to these comments to defend yourself of what many who really know you or who have had business dealings with you KNOW to be true.
You are a penny pincher to the core. You want everything for free. You have stayed in the mindframe of trying to get every tiny little thing that you could in fear that it would be your last chance at it. This mentality has stayed with you despite being married to a millionaire.
You and Bob maybe cordial but I certainly wouldn’t say that you are on good terms. But you are manipulative and will try to use your own children to get what it is that you think that you want.
I’ve been hearing about you for years. I’ve seen you several times and you are an apple that happens to be rotten to the core.
I’ve never worked with you but I’ve heard about people who have. I am yet to hear one positive story. Even the fed ex man hated to see you coming back in your Bella Azul days. Fed ex pays him so he wasn’t on your pay roll.
I wonder if your ghetto family will be featured on the show? Where is your mother? Alcoholic brothers. Fast ass daughter (the oldest) following right in her mother’s foot steps. As much as you are in the gym seems like you would give a shit about her enough to take her with you. I mean she learned from the best!! Didn’t she?
Well I could say so so so much more. But some of the information I am privy to is going to come as a surprise to you.
I wonder if you will waste your time Sheree because I know that it is clearly you responding insisting on that fact that you paid people when you know you didn’t and you don’t. Who else would care as much as YOU. HMMMMMMMMM.
