Celebrity blogger B. Scott has weighed in on the latest scandal involving Kenya Moore, a prominent figure on “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” (RHOA). Speaking at the 2024 Cannes Lions festival, Scott shared their thoughts on the controversy surrounding Moore and the significant changes coming to Season 16 of the popular Bravo series.
Scott, who has been a reliable source for RHOA news since the show’s inception in 2008, expressed disbelief over the allegations against Moore. The scandal erupted when Moore allegedly displayed explicit posters of newcomer Brittany Eady performing oral sex at her salon’s grand opening. Scott, who considers Moore a friend, hopes the accusations are not true, describing the situation as “very lowbrow.”
The incident has led to Moore’s indefinite suspension from filming Season 16. Scott emphasized that Moore needs to “read the room” if she plans to return to the show. The blogger believes the drama could negatively impact Moore’s entrepreneurial ventures, particularly her Kenya Moore Hair Care brand.
The scandal has been a hot topic, with Bravo cameras capturing the controversial event. An insider claimed the explicit photos were already available online and that Eady had previously threatened Moore. However, a production source denied any threats involving a weapon during the event.
Moore, who has been a cast member since 2012, took to social media to defend herself, stating she would never engage in “revenge porn” and has never distributed private images or footage of anyone. Despite the controversy, Moore remains a significant figure in the RHOA community.
Scott, who chose not to cover the scandal extensively, admitted they didn’t investigate its authenticity. Instead, they focused on the broader changes coming to RHOA. Season 16 will feature a mix of returning stars and new faces, including Porsha Williams, Drew Sidora, and Shamea Morton, who will be a full-time cast member for the first time. Newcomers Kelli Ferrell, Angela Oakley, and Brittany Eady will also join the cast.
The shakeup follows a decline in ratings for Season 15, prompting fans to call for changes. Scott expressed uncertainty about the new season, stating that the recent scandals don’t align with the essence of “Atlanta Housewives.”
While Scott enjoys their time at the Cannes Lions festival, they remain a key figure in the RHOA community. Their packed schedule includes speaking engagements and hosting gigs, highlighting their influence in the media world.
As RHOA gears up for its 16th season, the cast changes and ongoing drama promise to keep fans engaged. Whether Moore will return to the show remains uncertain, but her impact on the series is undeniable.
