The Real Housewives Of Atlanta Season 5 Episode 17 Phaedra, NeNe, Kenya, Cynthia, and Porsha

by Jessica Blackwell

 

If Kenya is serious about her doctor's orders to avoid stress, then she should consider changing her friends. I haven't jumped ship to team Kenya just yet, I just think the other ladies are having a hard time forgiving her past transgressions now that she's trying to become Saint Kenya. I do agree that all the snarky talk about Walter last week wasn't necessary, and it was clear they were doing it to intentionally hurt her. 

 

NeNe, who has has become quite in love with treating herself like the star she thinks she is, made no qualms about sending her lesser subjects on a bus to Vegas while she flew first class. As I've said before, NeNe is no fool. She may claim to be above drama, but she has no problem stirring the pot watching it boil. What better way to be above the drama than to be literally flying high above the party bus that is sure to explode? I wouldn't be surprised if she installed a camera in the bus so she could watch it all unfold, Big Brother style. 

 

Dubbing herself Captain yet again, Kenya came up with the bright idea to play a twisted game of charades where the housewives imitated each other on the bus. Yes, let's have the Donkey and Stallion who want to kill each other give heartwarming, Oscar worthy interpretations of each other. Surprisingly  they all got off the bus alive. 

 

After being on a bus for 5+ plus hours, they were ready to get loose! And by loose, I mean watch some lovely ladies remove their clothing! Poor Porsha thought they were going to a Burlesque club, and was appalled when she found out they were going to an actual strip club. Despite the ladies urging her to "let what happens in Vegas, stay in Vegas" (until it airs on national tv that is), Porsha peaced out and left the ladies at the door to the Crazy Horse. 

 

After Porsha was gone, the ladies proceeded to have a ball, with Phaedra complimenting one of the girls on her pubic area shave job, NeNe sharing her stripper experiences, and Kenya making it rain on the strippers. Their surroundings didn't stop them from discussing Porsha and her reluctance to enter the club however. NeNe felt like Porsha was dying inside as a prisoner inside Kordell's castle and decided they needed to have a "talk" with her. 

 

The ladies confronted Porsha the next morning the debate had  atopic one that will likely be debated for centuries. They all felt she should be a strong independent woman, and kick Kordell off his throne. Porsha was proud of Kordell for "allowing" her to go on the trip at all, and respects his wishes. I won't cast my opinion on who I feel is right or wrong here, but I will say this: NeNe's independent a** is divorced, Kandi ain't married yet, Cynthia is married - to an old man, Phaedra's husband is an ex-con who flirts with Kenya, and Kenya couldn't get a man to marry her if she was the last woman on earth. So I really don't think she needs to be taking any advice from them

 

Despite the fact that Kandi basically farted in Todd's mouth while they were being intimate, (Kandi girl, you shoulda kept that one to yourself) he still wanted to put  ring on it, so she's been occasionally sending him pictures of rings that she likes, per his request. Even though she hasn't locked him down just yet, it seems like she's pretty close. In addition to almost being engaged, she's also expanding her Bedroom Kandi business to home parties, so she showed the ladies some of the toys from her line. All the sex-ware got the ladies in the mood, so they had a contest on who can give a chocolate covered strawberry the sexiest nibble, and Phaedra yelled out that Walter didn't like Kenya's technique during her bite. Really? Fed up with the phoniness, Kenya couldn't resist confronting her about the workout tape situation. In the end, nothing was resolved and as NeNe put it - "these bitches will never be friends". 

 

Next week, Kordell finds Porsha's untaken pregnancy test, and Kandi has a housewarming party - which Walter shows up to - with a date! Stay tuned to see Kenya twirl out of control!
