‘Yass Ma’am’: Fans Can Hardly Handle the Glam that Kandi Burruss is Serving

Uh oh, somebody call Todd Tucker because fans are swooning over his wife Kandi Burruss.

Burruss had fans shook after posting photos of herself prior to attending the 13th-annual ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Awards luncheon on Feb. 6.

With comments such as, “This look is so 🔥🔥🔥 yassss Kandi yasss!!💕💕” it was obvious that fans were giving Burruss three snaps in Z-formation!

The singer/songwriter rocked a sparkly green, long-sleeved robe-like dress with a deep V opening. With her legs out and slimmer figure on display, fans never had a chance to keep their cool.

“This is not an easy outfit to pull off but you make it look BOMB 💖”

“Yass ma’am,” wrote another fan.

“This whole look is a hell yes!!😍😍”

The event was hosted by rapper turned daytime talk show host Eve.

“This is such an important time for women in the world — especially working in the entertainment industry both in front of the camera and behind the scenes,” explained Eve.

The O.G. “Real Housewives of Atlanta” castmate was not the only peach-holding beauty basking in the the Los Angeles sun.

Burruss posted photos with her fellow castmates Eva Marcille and Cynthia Bailey. She playfully captioned the trio’s photos with, “Who let the peaches in the building?!🍑”

Marcille, who is back to rocking her platinum blonde hair, wore a green dress, while Bailey wore a black, shimmery fringe dress.

“3 queens!”

“All 3 of you ladies are so beautiful and sexy!! 😍 😍 🔥,” read many of the comments from enamored fans.

One thing is for certain, each of the women has mastered the art of securing the bag and keeping audiences entertained.

“Beautiful, Black, Successful Women❤️”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
