Y'all pray for Kandi Burrus


Kandi Burrus, formerly of Xscape and now a star on Real Housewives of Atlanta, really needs an intervention. I'm sure you know by now Kandi is engaged to AJ, father of six (with four babymamas). Kandi has one daughter from a previous relationship. Her daughter is uncomfortable with the engagement and her mother is positively against it. Well, Kandi recently told Essence.com she and AJ have put their engagement on hiatus.

What's the issue then, you say? Well...Kandi now has custody of his 12 -year-old twin daughters. Say what? I said Kandi is now taken over legal guardianship of two of his six children from AJ's mama. *sigh* She says it's because the girls need a strong female role model in her life and he would have taken them, but...blah, blah, blah. This man wasn't even raising his own daughters. He had his mama doing it. Now Kandi is the one pulling his plow for him. Yes, she would have been one of their guardians if they had gotten married, but she says they aren't even together right now. (For the record, I don't buy that for a minute. She is just trying to get some of the negative heat off her, in my opinion.)

Not only has she taken on the responsibility of raising his kids, but when asked what exactly what it is he does for a living Kandi says, "AJ over time has done a lot of things, including running this collection agency while we were together and he just recently bought into this strip club." So is she saying he can't keep a job? Nevermind that. I can't believe she thinks it is a good idea for her daughter's future stepfather to be a proprieter of a strip club. I really thought she had a good head on her shoulders. I just can't with them today.

Breaking News: Ellen is the new Idol

Ellen DeGeneres just Tweeted she will be the new judge on American Idol. Paula Abdul can officially forget about any hopes she had of being begged to come back. Ellen has a huge following (don't ask me why, I don't understand it) who is sure to tune in to listen to her corny, unfunny jokes on Idol nights. Riddle me this: Idol is a singing show that has made actual stars out of many of its contestants (whether they had talent or not is another discussion). What qualifies non-singing Ellen to judge aspiring professional singers?
P.S. I'm going to redouble my efforts not to watch this season. Idol consistently picks the wrong people to be winners and forces contestants to conform to schlock rather than to show their individual character as performers. It was already insufferable to listen to Simon's meanness and Randy's "you know man" comments every season. Add Ellen to the mix and it becomes completely unwatchable. Paula's spaciness was the only thing keepin g it entertaining.
