RHOA Stars Throw Shade and Have Some Fun with Their Latest Taglines

In just over one week “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” will return to television screens for the 11th season and Bravo has unveiled the ladies’ newest batch of taglines.

The new catchphrases, which will air during the show’s opening credits, were obtained by Entertainment Tonight Tuesday, Oct. 30.

Long-time cast member Nene Leakes’ line humorously references her hair and her very serious time helping husband Gregg Leakes battle cancer.

“I am the glue for my wig and my family!” she says, apparently deciding not to go the shady route as suggested by fans.

Lucky and in love Cynthia Bailey recites, “I age like fine wine, and now, I am ready to chill.” Her line undoubtedly references her stunning beauty at age 51 and also likely refers to her Fox Sports 1 anchor beau, Mike Hill, who uses the hashtag #CHill on his Instagram posts.

Taking note of her huge business ventures this year, Kandi Burruss says, “I count my blessings — and my checks!” And Burruss certainly has checks aplenty. She’ll soon open a second location of her successful Old Lady Gang restaurant and also turned a rumor about her having a sex dungeon into a quickly sold out burlesque show.

Porsha Williams nodded to her volatile past while waving a light on her bright future as an expectant mom and soon-to-be wife to fiancé Dennis McKinley.

“I took a left turn but now, things are just right,” she said.

A former friend of the show and current housewive Eva Marcille also acknowledged her future as a bride and tipped her hat to winning “America’s Next Top Model.”

“I live a model life, now I’m ready to be a top wife,” she said of her nuptials to Atlanta-based attorney Michael Sterling.

And finally, Blaque singer Shamari DeVoe, who is beginning her first season on RHOA as a peach holder, said, “I may be an open book, but that does not mean I am easily read.”

Fans gleefully weighed in on the newest round of ‘wives taglines.

“Best is Porsha. It’s most authentic. ✨Eva is a close runner up; it’s also most authentic.”

“@kandi I love her tag line! Cause she is about family and being a boss! 😘”

“Shamari has me shook!”

Independent journalism still matters.

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.
