Tiny & Toya… & Kandi?
Doesn’t really have the same ring to it, but that was almost the premise of the show… unfortunately the other potential cast member, Lyfe Jenning’s ex Joy, help nix that option. However, it didn’t keep Kandi Burruss from making her reality TV debut as she tells Essence:
“I was supposed to be on the ‘Tiny & Toya’ show along with our friend Joy, Lyfe Jennings’s ex-fiancée. For whatever reason, the producer and Joy had an uneasy disagreement during the first meeting that I was unable to attend and he simply decided to do the show with Tiny and Toya. I was disappointed because I was looking forward to getting into reality television, but the next week I was approached to join the cast of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta,’ so it all worked out.”
She also doesn’t care for bloggers… hence the upcoming album B.L.O.G. (B__ Love Online Gossip).
“I came up with the concept based on things that were going that were relevant to what’s going on in my life now including the show and what things have been written about me and my fiancée by bloggers. The whole album isn’t about the show but there are definitely songs inspired from the show like “Fly Above,” and “It Must Be Good.”
The funny thing about these people that take issue with bloggers is that they don’t realize that the majority of the time no one else is even checking for them. We keep half of these psuedo-celebs relevant. Miss me with all that, but I’ll take credit for inspiring your album. Plus if you don’t want people in your life… don’t go searching for a reality TV show. Thank you and good day.
