Atlanta's Next Top Housewife

Which ATL alter ego was your favorite?

September 18, 2009

 

In last night's episode of Atlanta's Next Top Housewife, the shots from Derek Blanks' Alter Ego photo shoot were revealed. A somber NeNe stood to address the group. "Ladies. You take beautiful pictures. But with modeling, you must own your inner-fierceness. You must plant the seeds and saplings of success, so your tree will bear the fiercest fruit. Tonight, we will decide WHO will be Atlanta's Next Top Housewife. Kim. Lisa. Sheree. Kandi. Please, step forward. I have four beautiful women standing before me, but I only care about three photos. The name of the Housewife I do not call must immediately pack her belongings, remove her wig and limp home."

Yeah fine, that's not how it went. But it's what Tyra would have done. Before you cast your vote for favorite look, let's review.

Lisa was a really cute girl scout who did look genuinely upset about all the crushed Do-si-dos. (That's peanut butter sandwich cookies for those of you who don't speak fluent Girl Scout.) Her alter ego was something of a cross between Rihanna and a villain from Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. Or a mash up of Christian Siriano and Brit a la "Oops I Did It Again." Pick your poison.

Kim played a Stepford Wife and a mistress. It's hard to admire a picture when it's subject is rolling around at your feet, moaning and bleeding from every orifice.

Kandi was a convincing booze hound who turned her car into a 3,000 pound weapon. Her drunk driver was fierce, but her victim fell flat. Kandi's "totaled" expression wasn't so much "Oh god, I'm gonna die," but more, "Aw seriously? Railroaded again?" Still, powerful stuff.

Sheree played a thief, so naturally she needed a mohawk. Somewhere is Neverland, Rufio is nodding with approval. Sheree also portrayed the victim in the robbery. To be fair, if you get robbed walking around with your fists full of hundos, you had it coming. Both thief and victim shared a common love of eyeshadow. Janice Dickinson would be all, "Sheree, your eyeshadow is like a the battery that saved a dying vibrator." And J. Alexander would be all, "Bzzzzzzzzz."

Last but not the least bit bashful was NeNe. Her stripper was a hundred "nip slips" stronger than portrayal of a straight-laced onlooker.

So, which wife had the strongest photoshoot?

I like Candi's. She is making a statement.

I like Lisa pictures, because she really looked diffrent with both of her her ego shoots.

Luv Kandi! She's a Great addition to the Show.
Your In My Prayers! God Bless!

i loved everyones,picture they are all pretty ladies, even/kim

In my opinion Ne-ne's was the best and Kandi ranked second. Kim's was the worst.

i loved nene alter ego the best i like her the best out of all the house wives she's down to earth and has no trouble speaking her mind.kim she is the trouble maker out of every one and lies all the time she need to get it together if she wants to be excepted.the shows great!!!!

I am so sorry to hear about Kandi's fiance. Kandi, my prayers are with you and your family!

this is for Kim . I think you are a great friend and I
hope others would apreciat you . Good luck with your
life . You got really good girls and beutiful ones too .

I like Kandi, because she does not get involve with all of the drama with other girls she is a down to earth person I just think NeNe is very controlling with the ladies and she need to back down some.

Wow I am totally addicted to this show. I love housewives of atlanta they remind me of my old friends. I want to see big pappa! Come on bravo make it happen! They make me revaluate my own life I kinda miss the drawma I had with my old friends. I think I'am ready to start making new ones!!!

these are hot!!! I like the pole

Sheree keep on doing you thing love your big ego the haters wish they could be like you fly above all the hater's like kandi songs says. Them hater just mad that your still standing like my girl Monica say . Much love and a dame good clothing line let them hoes know you the best in land. lol

I think NeNe is real cool she is a down to earth female.I have an idea about what about trying out a talk show dealing with independent women that is not famous that you can give them a try with a small talk show.

I truly enjoy watching all of the Housewives but I especially love watching true reality with NeNe. The other housewives bore me when they are on I feel like getting up and doing something or changing the channel.

I think Kandi's was the best for so maney reasons . she pulled it off it looked so real and it was sending a msg.
about diking and driving.
so far as housewives as a whole all I can say to that is
sure as hell not Neenee . she is a bully/ mean/ cold harted.and just full of hot air. she makes me sick. I trully wish someone from brovo would take a pin and pop the air out of her head because she thinks that if not for her then the show would not be .

Nene you are a messy person, and I think you met your match Kandi, thats right don't back down to her. Kim you need to get it together. Lisa don't be nieve to your co-workers. Sheree its not all about u.

kandi

kim is playing everyone and she has nothing to. she is playing kandi and nene and they just dont pay attention to that because everyone is all in the camera. LOVE YOU, NENE.

p.s Shake those hater's offff!!!!!!!!!!!

Love Sasha

the pictures were nice. Kandi must not understand the alta ego.
You should have done you looking confused listening to your moms about your man/you as a little girl. (PAY ATTENTION)
Kim is a throw-off.She needs to get real and honest first with yourself then us.Then maybe you'll get better responses from us when we know who you are.

ne ne u won hands down but kim really likes U so please be nice

I loved Kandi's alter go photo. Mr Blanks is a genius! Nene looked just like the whore that she is. She has no room to talk about Kim. At least Kim admits that she is a whore. Sheree's photo was good too. Lisa, go spend some time with yors kids hon.

I love NeNe...she is my fav!
But, I thought Kandi's was the most unselfish...it had a meaning to Kandi and to her family!
So, NeNe and Kandi are my fav!

I liked both NeNe's alter ego shot, AND Sheree's both the same.

I love love love NeNe...She is my favorite housewife...but I liked Sheree's ego pic the best!!

Alter ego shoots where a hit....never heard of them until now(maybe it's because of where I'm from) been 2 ATL once lovely city had a nice time...the pics well(wish I can afford a shoot) Kim...boring..Sheree not a big fan it was all good...Kandi luv her she's doesn't go around talking about the other b..behind backs like the others #1 pic in my book deep picture.. Lisa it was cute...NeNe went to a club once neva say one in there looking like any of yur characters

I think Sheree had the best alter ego photo out of all the girls and Kandi would follow. The rest of the photos were okay but there was nothing about them that stood out. I think out of all the girls in the show Lisa seems to be the one that's the most forgettable.

I love Kandi...
Out side of Lisa - Kandi is the only one who has earned and made her OWN money! And does not act like a primadonna. Kandi's picture was the most unselfish thing I have seen yet on the show.

The meaning of an alter ego, is to look at the complete opposites of personalities. With that in mind, Ne Ne was the best photo. A pearl, straight laced women and then a stripper. I did not think that Kim was a far stretch, and Kandi's photos wasn't an alter ego.

I have an idea pertaining to another show topic.
RE: Fashion Line

Two heads are better than one, one didn't Sheree and Lisa work together to develop a really hot line one. And two what are their plans for the lines now. To be honest it was a nice first effort, but neither popped off the run-way.

Hello Ladies,

Truly love all of the alter ego shoot...wish Kim had choosen another ego nevertheless her photo was beautiful.
Also, I just luv luv luv Sheree's and Kandi's...NeNe step out of the box with great directing and imagination, you go girl... Lastly, Lisa you are simple beautiful...

Detroit Housewife and loving it...

The alter-ego unveiling was very surprising to me; although Kandi's portrayal was more realistic and convincing, and although I am not a professional photographer, my sense is once each alter-ego was revealed, i felt that Derek Blanks did something more to Sheree's alter-ego, it appears to me that Sheree's had more brillance in terms of color that popped out at u, front and center; whereas the other alter-egos photos seemed far and distant in the background lacking the luster and color brillance that Sheree's had. Bravo to the Atlanta housewives, you all did a terrific job on your dual personalities!

I thought the whole idea of the "Alter Ego" was a very interesting concept, showing what these girls are all about. My favorite is Kandi. Kandi seems true to her persona. Kim, Shere and NeNe are trying too hard to bring the others down. The jury is still out on Lisa, but I think she's a bit ghetto and does not realize how much of her past is following her. Lisa has a nice husband, and really should built more upon that. She comes from a decent family in Inglewood, Cali, and I think she should intergrate some of her family members into the show. Even if it's a cameo. Lisa is interesting and is the prettiest of the group, next is Kandi. I think Kandi has a lot of class, more so that all the rest. I love how Kandi represents hereself and her family. She's truly a "Souhern girl" in the very best way possible. Keep it up Kandi! I also think NeNe has a lot of jealous moments with all the women.

Kandi you were a HIT with your photo. NeNe you lost me when you were a sophisticated lady in a strip club. Kim should not have showed up. Sheree was okay. Lisa was decent.

thay all had good ego's but kandi was the best, she is real and i love her attitude.
if anyone litsened to lisa when she seen her ego's she didn't like it that much because she felt that wasn't her, but i love her style.
kim could have done much better with her ego's. The girls need to lay off her she's grown and got kids just make sure your man stay's away from her.
sheree i think she is just full of herself and is fake sometimes.
and last but not least lol NeNe your to loud for you to say your not hood.

Kandi you were Hot. I'm not a Sheree and her photo wasn't all that either. Lisa (blah). Kim (shouldnt have participated). NeNe was okay but couldnt grasped why a lady would be in a strip club.

I think the alter ego photos were great. I guess Derek Blanks proved that he is the Man when it comes to photography. NeNe did a good job coming up with fitting alters, which to me were a sort of spoof of the rumors that are going on about each person, except for Kim's. That really wasn't a stretch of the imagination at all. I was very disappointed to see that the whole reveal wound up revolving around her and her injury. I think it could and should have been handled differently. The show is called 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta', yet it seems to always be dominated by the drama of the one who isn't a wife at all and doesn't even respect the sanctity of marriage. Go figure.

Kandi's photo was most meaningful. In all fairness, it was an alter ego shot; therfore, all of the shots were nice. I like the show in spite of it being a lot of drama (which I feel that that is overcompensated in order to give the viewers something to talk about). I commend the ladies on their efforts in their private ventures aspiring to make it big like we all want to do. Email me if you all need another face on the show.

Sheree absolutely had the best picture. It turned out beautifully. While she does ruffle people's feathers (including my own) the wrong way sometimes, she blew the photo shoot out of the water. Kandi's was very nice as well. I cannot say the same for the other three pictures. something seemed to be missing from theirs.

To all the viewers who didn't get Lisa
alter ego as a Girlscout that why it is
called alter ego. I love all of them
especially NeNe and Sheree. Kandi was
most meaningful.

I liked them all in this order. Kandi, Sheree,Ne Ne Lisa, Kim. Kandi and Sheree's expressions made their photo's look more realistic.

I liked Kandi's photo the best cuz she expressed real eomtions that made the picture come to life and she's a Taurus so am I, so I gotta show her some Luv!

I just love NeNe, all the other wives deserve praise for their alter egoes too.

i really liked sheree alter ego shot, it was capturing and it definately displays some of her personalities.

Kandi!!!!Thanks for representing the ATL....Former Bulldog...U DID THAT!!!!! Best Pic hands down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sheree's picture is the best of the group. I don't like Sheree, and I'm sure the pic was airbrushed and photoshopped withing an inch of it's life, but the girl takes a good picture. Her expressions and her face are the strongest. Beautifully done. NeNe's photo made NO sense. I understand it's an alter ego photo, but why would the school marm character even be IN the strip club, much less giving money to a stripper?? She should have went with the idea of being the man in the club. That picture was just weird,and NeNe looked like a linebacker. Kandi's picture was good. Kim's picture was a heartless failure. Lisa's picture was cool, but forgettable.

I know alter ego is the other side of who you truly are, but Khandi was my favorite. I think it was very gutsy and selfless of her to use the photo shoot to wake people up. She could have been a number of things, but decided to do something meaningful. NeNe's was my least favorite.

Kandi had the best picture to me. I like watching the show for entertainment, I like every other person alive is curious on how other people live if they live like you or not. I would love to be on the show who doesn't want that 15 mins of fame. I live near and I get clothes at a Good Will and actually got a Kate Spade bag in which I wish I could sell for the money to buy groceries.
S.

shree has the best photo period. true alter ego!!! go get your money girl. kandi came to a close second powerful psa

I think Kandi's alter ego was strong and meaningful!!! I Felt like she gave all she had in this shoot!!! I also liked Sheree's picture i think she was a good sport and was able to have fun and not be so up tight and bossy like she usually is
