The Ladies on the Bus Go Back and Forth

Bravotv.com's Assistant Editor selects the top three moments of Episode 14.

Jan 17, 2011

Although the Golden Globes may have been on last night, the true Atlanta lovers were rewarded with an episode that delivered some of the saddest, scariest, and sweetest moments of the season in one peach-packed punch. Let us embark upon this highly Ramotional rollercoaster ride together, shall we?

This week's saddest moment claims the No. 3 spot – Cynthia and Peter's wedding worries. I don’t think I could imagine anything more daunting (or more time consuming) than the prospect of having to go back and un-plan a wedding. I’ve seen enough episodes of 'Bridezillas' to know the physical and emotional cost that goes into the whole process, and let me tell you, it’s not pretty.

When Peter told Cynthia about Uptown's closing, I think she had a right to be upset. I'm not quite sure what Peter expected her reaction to be when he broke the news… "Oh OK, so we’ve lost our main source of income. How do you feel about releasing live doves at the ceremony?" I mean come on! And call me crazy, but his resolution to just not tell her anything anymore doesn't exactly seem like the best solution for soon to be newlyweds. But in Cynthia's blog, she says that they still love one another and are working through their issues. I suppose we’ll just have to keep watching to see if this wedding actually happens.

No. 2 goes to the horrific Kim and NeNe blowout (Yes, scarier than Helena Bonham Carter's outfit). Where to begin with this… I'm mostly sad that they're no longer friends! Honestly it's more amusing when they get along. Exhibit A:

Hi, I agree Peter should have told her!! Loved the Sandra Bullock comment, so true!!! :) Laura, San Jose :)

NeNe's a bully. She tries to act like she has class when the spotlight is on her but she is ghetto all the way. Kim has no class either. She's just loud and obnoxious and so self centered. Yet, I love to watch them when they are friends; it's like a comedy team. Their "celebrity" status has gone to their heads. Granted, they're on a popular TV show, but not because they're talented or artistic. I used to like them both, now they're just boring, obnoxious divas.

So sorry for Cynthia. Her honey needs to share all the news with her, good and bad. I'm sure he's stressed, but shouldn't get upset with her because she gets upset with bad news. I hope she didn't marry him yet.

Whewww, is right!! WOW!! Not on either Kim or Nene's side as both behave like monsters, truly dreadful. I guess if I'm on anyone's side it's Khandi's........be gone witches and let me sing my songs and ride on my bus like a dignified adult. Kim and Sweetie are starting to behave like Scarlett and Prissy......not good at all. Although I'm sure Sweetie gets paid an arm and a lef for putting up with it; and thank God those girls have Sweetie to anchor them and hopefully she will be able to stand being treated like u-know-what for long enough that the girls survive their mother and her antics and not grow up just like her. How Kim managed to stay sober and smoke free for 9 months should be registered as some sort of miracle as she is apparently drunk AT ALL TIMES, what else could explain it?? Nene needs a spot on Celebrity Re-hab and some Thorazine, end of discussion!

There comes a time when someone needs to look at both sides, Nene Leaks stirred in the pot and started the drama, One the bus, she showed her true colors by telling everyone what her "friend kim' told her in private. Why is ok for Nene to Yell from the top of her voice "your trash, blonde headed dummy,your nobody, and so on and on, But Kim cant say Bitch, come on, thats exactly what Nene was acting like. Ne Ne you cant blame editing on this one, If she would put all the judging and energy she put into Kim into her marriage, maybe she wouldnt sleep alone! I think the money that was borrowed from Dwight she be used to buy a Mirror so NENE can see the light! I use to look forward to seeing NENE walking inot a room on the show, now all I see are TEETH, its a fake smile with a little too much sarcasim. On Andies show she something about Kims Vocabulary, Well you know what-the BAM,CLONK,andBOO WHOO is all getting very old, so there again, check yourself, before you throw those big stones.

I'm still confused as to why Nene got sooo mad at Kim for?????

I have to say I agree! I love Riley!

I can't stand Kim she can't sing ne ne was telling the truth about Kim She does order sweetie around like a slave. I think ne ne shows how strong she is to take a job at a local station to start a promising career, she shows that she can be dedicated and put in the work. Kim on the other hand is to lazy to take voice lessons and want take the time to learn the dance moves for the tour, who's the joke!

Since NeNe never blogs anymore can you just tell her that when she conducts an interview she should do basic things like ask open ended questions. I think that Jermaine Dupree was toying with her since she asked open questions that could be answered with a 'yes' or ''no.' It is sooooo basic to the interview process. Having said this, NeNe's charisma really worked to get Jermaine engaged in the end. I want NeNe to succeed...she's cool.

Don't sell us (viewersfans) short by telling us to stay tuned to see if Cynthia and Peter tie the knot. We can all read, and know that they already got married. I'll still tune in for the rest of the season, but don't insult us. Atlanta is full of drama....GOOD TV....BRAVO!

Nene is totally classless. She's awful at interviewing, and she was totally out of line with the "slave" comment. It's disgusting that anybody would do that to two people who have as close a relationship as Kim and Sweetie do. Kim speaks to Sweetie like a lot of siblings speak to one another--completely irreverant and sarcastic. And Sweetie has a strong personality; she could tell Kim to stick it if she didn't like it. Nene also threatened Kim on camera twice; Kim should've called 911 and nipped that crazy witch in the bud.

So what if Kim's a wreck; she owns it and doesn't pretend to be anything she's not. And it think it's hard for her doing something she's never done before. The women on this show beeAtch to her when she's not working, and then they try to tear her down when she is. Get over it already. Kim's the only honest one on the show.

I think Kim doesn't know how to sing or put on a show but Ne Ne was unprofessional bringing up Kim at the Jermaine Dupree interview. It is not OK for NeNe's to talk behind Kim's back when she was there as her guest or to put her down and yell at her and not expect Kim to fight back. Ne Ne is one of my favorite but she has got to control herself. Ne Ne started the whole fight.

NeNe totally started this one!!! She is a big bully,extremely ghetto person. As soon as they got on the bus that morning, she started the whole thing!! First of all NeNe, since ur obviously to "big" now to blog to little people, u are jealous of "Tardy for the Party"! If u weren't, you wouldn't have brought Kim up during your interview! It seems you think it's always ok to belittle Kim whenever you feel the need to pick on her! And who are you to dictate a trip, if it was supposed to be just the girls, why was Diana there? You are just a rediculous bully!! And it always has to be all about you. What happen was, you were fine at first until you saw the attention was all on Kim and khandi, and you couldn't stand it! So of course the next morning you had to start some mess!! You try to act so proper and classy...but your really very ghettto! I used to like you season one...but I'm like your ex-husband, you've let your little fame go to your head my dear! All you do is talk about people. You even talked about your "friend" cynthia to kim! Your the one that's childish, immature and trash!

Nene you are so fake now! I used to like her on season one, but now she's let fame get it her head! All she do is talk about people, whenever the attention is not on her,she can't stand it! It was all about Kim and khandi, and it was easier to bully Kim, so she did! Who are u to dictate a party? If it was only supposed to be the girls, then why was Diana there!? Go take that horrible hair off your head, and focus on all your work( because you work soooo hard remember, and Kim just plays, thanks to khandi)on your local show...that u only got thanks to brAvo!

I couldn't have said it better Pdaugereau! Just because you yell doesn't mean your right about everything. I think NeNe is just hating, Big poppa keeps her in nice things (even though I don't condone cheating) She can't sing, but is making dolla bills and she finally has found love & pregnant by her new man....I'm just sayin

Nene is JEALOUS of KIM. All that was not neccessary. Nene is fake and not loyal to anyone inlcudng her husband. She made a big deal about that note Cynthia wrote and purposely tried to embarass her. HATES ON EVERYBODY, she always has something to say. SHe embarasses her husband on national TV and gets mad at him because somene sets him on on a recorded call while he expressed how he felt but she can go on all day about how he does this and that. NENE IS A 8 FOOT BULLY..POINT BLANK

When the Viewer asked Iman how she stays looking so young, Nene jumped in and agreed as if she looks as young as IMAN, when clearly the question was directed towards IMAN and clearly NENE DOES NOT LOOK NO WHERE NEAR AS FLY AS IMAN, so her input was not needed but because she always has something to say she does. I think she has a MENTAL problem, because she dishes out a lot and can't take anything back. She has a hate rage and thinks it's called keeping it real. But it's clearly called hating

I said this on a didfferent post...NeNe is a big mouth Bully! She is jealous of the success of Kim's and Kandi's friendshhip and business arrangement. And the success of their recording. She expected to come there and take over...she tried to...she talked Kim out of hhe outfit she was going to wear and then tried to interfere in the performance. She was mad as hell about the success of that performance...she wanted Kim to fall on her face. That is why she made it her business to make trouble. She went on that bus to break up the partnership of Kim and Kandi...She misquoated what Kim had said to her, and she started acting weird...and used Sweetie and Don Juan staying at the mansion as an excuse to act the fool and let out all that jealousy and continued peeze from the moment she was cut out of the recording deal last season.Now Kim and Kandi are doing more...OH it is burning her up! She is so jealous of Sheree for EVERYTHING she is doing...she puts it down...She can't stand Phaedra's success...she puts her down...The only one she likes at this time is Cynthis and that is because she is not modeling at this time and is spending her time Idolizing NeNe and being her Biggest Fan...as soon as she stips...Watch OUT! No more NeNe Show...She is a nasty mouth, evil, jealows, very unhappy, LOUD MOUTH BULLY, who needs REHAB or at the least,,,.DR.PHIL's HOUSE. That usually helps those that go there.

Nene couldn't interview her way out of a paperbag. And after her irrational, abusive behavior on the bus I'd be surprised if 11alive even wants her back. She's not good enough for them to tolerate Mel Gibson-like behavior. She needs anger management counseling. Kim is obnoxious but not scary.....

I don't think NeNe started the fight, so what she mentioned Kim at the interview?! I think it was a valid question and I have seen Kim interview and throw negativity NeNe's way so let's be fair! I think Kim should have confronted NeNe as to why he mentioned her name when they were alone and not on the bus in front of everybody. There is no real friendship there anyway so I don't see it as a big loss. The only real friend to NeNe is Cynthia and I hope she realizes it before she loses her. I also think Kandi is wishy-washy, she had a big problem with Kim before NeNe entered the bus but then she wanted to blame NeNe for the whole incident...she was even agreeing with NeNe about Kim's treatment of her "slave" just seconds before... Why is Kandi hating on NeNe is my question? She better watch Kim who is using her and taking over her tour with her Karaoke act!

NE NE IS BECOMING A CRAZY OUT OF CONTROL MANIAC. YES KIM IS A HANDFUL BUT THEN WHO IS NOT A HANDFUL AT TIMES. THIS SHOW IS BEGINING TO TURN ME OFF.

NeNe talks about everyone. She is NOT the show. Good for Kim standing up to Big Foot. Can't wait for her to get off the show.BAM!

Get NeNe off the show already. BAM!

Well said. You write your blog like the viewing public relies on you to know whats going on.We will tune in without your prompting. The weddings been all over the news. Where were you?

I am not a fan of Kim or her music, but I do think NeNe is jealous of Kim's success and the attention she's receiving. NeNe needs to stop using Kim as a punching bag. It seems like she enjoys insulting poor immature Kim.

Kim is a better singer than NeNe is at interviewing. NeNe did terrible--she had a big name to interview, and she didn't even do research. NeNe is so jealous of Kim's success it's ridiculous. The whole thing on the bus was NeNe being jealous---she originally wanted to do that "tardy" song with Kim, it would have ruined the whole song if her loud mouth was on it.

As far as the blow-up, I'm on Kim's side. Yea Kim is crazy and is a pain in the behind, but Nene is the real drama queen. She goes out of her way to try to put Kim down...she started the drama and had a lotta smack to say, but didn't expect Kim to respond? Pls...someone needs to check 2-faced, back biting, classless Nene fast!

What bothers me most is the continued saying "There are some things you should never say to a black woman". UH-exactly what is that? There are a lot of things that women should never say to each other, but I am not sure that race should enter into that discussion. So basically Kim should curtail her behavior because NeNe is black? I don't think so. I think Kim would treat anyone that way regardless of what color they are. In all reaility they are both women who could use some upbringing, but again-I don't think that has anything to do with white or black!

NeNe is a bully and a big mouth! She is a disgrace to real ladies. Kim is a piece of work too but NeNe is totally classless. Can't stand to watch her screaming any more!!!!!

You know....Kim and NeNe are two of a kind really. They have this love hate relationship. However...I feel that they always take things too far. Kim is loud and boorish and so is NeNe, I i agree with NeNe on the whole Sweetie thing, I hate the way Kim talks to her, maybe If we saw Sweetie stand up for herself once in awhile it would be easier to swallow. NeNe needs to realize that she and Kim are not meant to be. Let it go. They are always gonna find something to fight about so just agree to disagree. As far as the comments by White Mamaw, that is why there is still hatred in this world.

Team Ne Ne (although she could have been more tactful, she had some valid points). Asking the Kim question was nothing more than an ice breaker... it didn't seem malicious. Kim is waaaay too full of herself. She doesn't appreciate Kandi. She is disrespectful to Sweetie (and Sweetie, there are a lot of things I would do for a check.... this is NOT one of them). Love Cynthia. Hope she and Peter work it out. Even Phaedra was tolerable.

Nene was putting on a show on the tour bus because there is not much happening in her life. She is jealous of all the attention Kim is receiving. In someway, I blamed Kim for inviting Nene on the bus. Nene just want to sign up for another season. She knows that the viewers like the drama.

You people are so ignorant to the fact that Bravo only shows you bits and pieces of this argument. How can you be on anyone's side when you didn't even hear the whole argument. I don't understand why it is so upsetting that Nene brought up Kim in an interview, all she did was give her more recognition.

It was a hard episode to watch, the worst being seeing NeNe lose total control of herself. What a nasty hater she is. I do not think she should be on the show anymore! It is very uncomfortable to watch her threaten violence, she should probably be up on charges for her behavior on the bus. There is no excuse, absolutely none! Boo NeNe! Boo!

For the record my favorites are Sheree, she is so funny even when angry. Kandi is real and very much someone people can relate to. I also like Phaedra. She and her husband are cute and funny. NeNe and Cynthia are not entertaining. No one wants to watch NeNe hating on people. It is terrible!

Nene did what she felt needed. I would have checked Kim as well. It was long overdue. Kim be doing to much. The comment Nene made in her interview was not disrepectful to Kim...that is how Kim took it and that is where her attitude with Nene began. She invited Nene on the tour...despite Nene told her she does not really feel her as an artist...What did kim expect for Nene to ride her A** like sweetie do. NOT and nene made that CLEAR.

Me too. I don't know what some of the other idiots are talking about. Were we even watching the same show?!

NeNe is so two faced it's sad. Who is she gonna attack next? Cynthia? She has made rude comments about everyone and she gets very mean and agressive if she is not the center of attention. She needs to go!

I agree that Nene must be stopped before she hurts someone. Her threats may lead to actions. Kim, don't go back for more abuse from Nene.

Kandi is a realist to me......The only thing she said was I don't know why Kim and NeNe keep being friends because it always end it a blow up of some sort. I don't see were she has hated on NeNE

Hi Andrew, I just heard about the cast that will be doing HOUSTON. Does this mean that ATLANTA HOUSEWIFES are over?

NENE YOUR HUSBAND EVEN THINKS YOU TALK TO MUCH ! I remember on one of the shows before yoou moved into the house your in now he told you to hush when someone behind the cramers was trying to talk.

NENE , GREG EVEN THINKS YOU TALK TO MUCH ! I don't think your going to have that job much longer. you was told not to put on airs so if they if they see you for what you are DUMMY don't you think everyone else see it too.

Why is it the ladies are not blogging? I think it tends to make people uninteresed in the show. Beverly Hills is kicking it-what's up Atlanta?

Are the veteran RHOA ladies too good for us?? They sure don't take the opportunity to blog too much anymore. Especially NeNe. It's been almost 2 months for her to 'grace us' with her words. Thank you, Cynthia & Phaedra, for regularly sharing your point of view. As for the others? You wouldn't be where you are without your fans. Take the opportunity to blog or you just may lose your fan base.

if you don't like the show don't watch period

ATTENTION : WITHOUT NE-NE THERE IS NO SHOW .......................

NOW WHO SOUNDS JEALOUS

LOVE THE SHOW IT IS ENTERTAINING WHICH IS WHY I WATCH TO BE ENTERTAINED TAKING ANY OF IT TO HEART THE WAY THE FANS DO IS JUST CRAZY DID YOU FORGET THESE PPL ARE PAID TO KEEP THE DRAMA GOING HELLLOOOOOOOOOO

PLS JUST CALM DOWN IT'S ENTERTAINMENT :)

NeNe is out of control. I am not a fan.She is so jealous of and demeaning of the other women. Maybe she will get her own show and we won't have to watch her drag everybody down.

I am really not a big fan of Kim's but NeNe was way out of line!! I don't know why she always insists on it being The NeNe Show? I think she has the fear of not being the center of attention. Hopefully it won't be that way at the reunion show!!

NeNe is ghetto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Case closed!!!! She gives the city of Atlanta a bad name and makes the show distasteful!!!!!! She will never make in this industry with that ghetto attitude!!!! NeNe needs to act like a lady... she needs to take some hints from: Sheree, Kandi, and Cynthia. She always has something negative to say about someone else and I am sick of it. She is tearing the show down!!!!! Bravo needs to fire her .... right along with 11 alive.

You took the words right out of my mouth.... I could not have said it better... She talks about limite vocabulary and all she seems to say are curse words or treachery when she opens her mouth.... Bravo, it's time for her to EXIT!!!
