This week on “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” it was finally time for Cynthia’s big pageant that she had been preparing for months now. Although Cynthia recruited some big names in Atlanta to help her with the show, including Boris Kodjoe, the pageant couldn’t have been more of a disaster! Meanwhile, Kandi was busy getting her praise on and taking a break from Bedroom Kandi to produce a gospel track.
Baby Talk With Porsha and Kordell
Porsha and Kordell had been married for a while now, so Porsha felt that it was the appropriate time to talk babies. The couple was out to dinner, and after Kordell bullied Porsha out of ordering a Sprite with her meal, he told her that he wanted her to give up on her career and stay home to watch their children. What career? Last time I checked, Porsha’s only career was shopping, putting on makeup and trying to figure out how many days there are in a year. Porsha disagreed with her husband, and thought that she could have it all: a career and babies. She brought up the idea of having a nanny but Kordell wasn’t satisfied. He wanted a stay at home wife who cooked, cleaned and tended to the children! Porsha suggested that she should “practice” being a mom on her niece, Jadynn, for a while, to show Kordell that she was capable of handling the jobs. Kordell was on board for Porsha’s idea under one condition: she had to do everything on her own. Poor Jadynn. Once Jadynn arrived at Porsha’s home, Porsha wasn’t sure of the first thing to do. After struggling to get Jadynn in the house, Porsha then went to change Jadynn’s diaper while feeding her a nutritious snack of Twizzlers, yum! After a disastrous first few hours, Porsha finally got the hang of being a “mom” and Jadynn survived Porsha’s care long enough to attend Cynthia’s pageant later in the episode. Maybe Porsha will make a good mom after all.
Kandi Gets Her Praise On
Yes, the same Kandi who created Bedroom Kandi, and openly talked about her sex life on camera, decided that she should try her hand in producing a gospel record. After all, her father was a preacher, so she felt it would be quite appropriate. She called gospel singer, Marvin Sapp, and asked him for help with the record and he flew to Atlanta to be in the studio with her. Kandi felt that she and Marvin had somewhat of a connection since he lost his wife recently and Kandi lost her boyfriend a couple of years ago. While they were in the studio recording, Kandi’s dad came by to check out the record and got emotional after hearing the song and actually started crying! Kandi’s dad’s tears made everyone in the room tear up for no good reason at all, but it was a special moment, nonetheless.
Nene Returned To Atlanta, Briefly
Nene was living the life in Los Angeles, hunny, and although she was about that Hollywood life, there was no place like home. Nene returned to Atlanta to check her mail, which gave Cynthia the chance to come over and catch her up on the gossip she missed. Cynthia told Nene about the pageant, and how she was considering letting Kenya be the judge of the pageant, despite her psycho past and crazy personality. Cynthia’s reasoning for bringing Kenya on board with the pageant was that she was Miss U.S.A at one time (or Miss America, I can’t keep up) and Nene’s response was quite appropriate, “I don’t care if she was Miss Boo Boo!” How fitting. Of course, Cynthia was looking for reassurance from her master friend Nene about the pageant and told Nene that if Kenya acted up during the show, she would kill her. Sure you will, Cynthia.
The Pageant
Finally, it was time for the pageant and if you could think of everything that could possibly go wrong on this day, that was exactly what happened. First, when Cynthia went to pick up Boris Kodjoe from the hotel, he was wearing jeans and a shirt instead of the normal pageant attire, which was a suit. At that moment, Cynthia knew the day would be a disaster. Once they arrived at the venue, the script was out of order, they forgot to bring out the teen contestants, they screwed up all the girls’ names and it took forever to announce the winners! Although things looked and sounded very bad, it actually wasn’t that bad at all, and Cynthia was proud of herself that she was able to pull it off. Congratulations to the ladies for getting through one episode without attempting to kill each other.
