Move Over Beyonce – Kenya Moore Debuts 'Gone with the Wind Fabulous'

Posted byBy Monique Davis | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Let the foolishness continue. Kenya Moore debuted her first single, ‘Gone with the Wind Fabulous‘ during ‘Watch What Happens Live’ with Andy Cohen. Giving her best nod to the old school dance show ‘Solid Gold’, Moore dressed in skin-tight gold stretch pants and a black bustier for her premiere performance. No performance is complete without dancers and Kenya’s twirling dancers did not disappoint. Cohen reiterated his declaration that, “I really do feel like if anything, it will be a drag anthem, I’m sure.”

For sure.

During a recent episode of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’, Kenya talked about her daily comparisons to Beyonce (insert eye roll here) and with this single, maybe Ms. Moore thinks she will generate more comparisons to the almighty Bey. That’s doubtful, but it hasn’t seemed to stop the delusional diva from pursuing a brand with her ‘Gone with the Wind Fabulous’ catch-phrase.

As delusional as most ‘Housewives of Atlanta’ fans may think Kenya is, she apparently has some people co-signing her wreckage of a singing career. On her Twitter account, Moore re-tweeted some nice things her fans had to say about her song. One fan remarked, “@KenyaMoore showed tonight that she is much more than a pretty face. She clearly has lots of business sense. She ain’t nobody’s fool.” Another fan expressed her enthusiasm for the song saying, “Love the new song! I’m twirling in my snuggie!”

Double negatives and Snuggies…those seem like fitting depictions of Kenya Moore fans.

Anyhow, Kenya did acknowledge that she is not a singer. (Duh!) After Cohen asked her how it felt to perform her song live, Kenya said, ““It’s scary! I’m not a singer, I’m not trying to be a singer, it’s a fun song that I just wrote to empower people,” …“We all have people who don’t appreciate who we are in the world and say … all these negative things … it’s an answer for it.”

So, in essence, Kenya believes her song is the answer to haters? Okay…

No word yet on whether ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ co-star and active Kenya-hater, Porshca, is in the studio to record a rival track.

What do you think? Is Kenya Moore ‘Gone with the Wind Fabulous’ or just another washed up celebrity turned reality TV character trying to generate some buzz on a long-since fabulous career?

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
