Phaedra Gives Kandi the Gift That Keeps on Giving: A Stripper

Real Housewives of Atlanta star delivers a major birthday surprise.

By Lauren Metz


Phaedra Parks knows how to party. Just ask Kandi Burruss.

"My friends are the best!" the birthday girl tweeted this week. "They got me a party bus!!! & @phaedraparks got the stripper." (Are you having the same Real Housewives of Atlanta flashback as we are right now? Cynthia's bachelorette party in Miami when Phaedra mentioned a stripper with a certain special talent?) "It's true," Kandi tweeted. Sounds like somebody found next week's topic for Kandi Koated Nights.

Before the party bus got rolling, Kandi enjoyed a birthday celebration far less X-rated: dinner with family and close pals. "Here I am with Riley, my mama, Aunt Bertha, & Aunt Nora. All my friends brought us out to dinner!" the Atlanta Housewife tweeted, along with a photo of herself with noticeably longer hair.

Once at the club, Kandi tweeted about dancing in a "Soul Train line" and left just as Jermaine Dupri and Bow Wow walked in. Still, the 'Wife – who shares the same birthday as fellow Bravoleb Tabatha Coffeytweeted, "I really had a great time tonight! Thanks to all my friends & family that made my birthday a special one that i won't forget! Goodnight."

What do you think? Is a party bus the ideal birthday ride, or was the first half of Kandi's evening more your speed? Start a Tweet Battle and make your case.
