The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap: Kandi Burruss' Birthday Blues

by at .

The Real Housewives of Atlanta had another party this week, this time for Kandi's 35th birthday. Unfortunately, a surprise guest upsets Momma and THG is here to take you through all the drama in our +/- recap!

First we get to recap last week's drama when Peter and Apollo nearly came to blows at Kim's baby shower. Kim's ticked and rightfully so. Next time she'll remember to "keep the ex-cons and a$$holes off the guest list."

But Phaedra steps up and earns a big Plus 10 showing up to Kim's with a gift basket and an apology. She may not have been able to stop the men at the time but at least she did the right thing coming forward and saying she was sorry.

Kandi Burruss Hair

Neither Cynthia or Peter bothered. Heck, they were five hours late and didn't even send a gift. Minus 15 because that's just beyond rude.

Speaking of Cynthia, try as she might to mend fences they just seem to burn. She calls her sister over to talk to Peter about the incident at her wedding a year ago. Who could have guessed this wouldn't go well? Minus 10.

You can't force people to make up and nothing got accomplished here except for dredging up bad memories that won't soon be forgotten.

Later, Cynthia and her sister argue about Peter's new bushiness venture. Unfortunately, Cynthia doesn't know her sister is right.

Bar One is in financial trouble before it's even begun and Peter's going to look to his wife to bail him out. Minus 9 because that's just going to widen the divide between Cynthia, Peter and her family.

Kim's getting prepared for the big event. No, not another party.

She talks to Phaedra about what it was like when she had her son. Phaedra says she had an epidural, morphine and was "crazy as a vampire in sunlight." Plus 5 for being honest but let's hope Kim has an easier time.

NeNe Leakes Body

Having had only girls, Kim's concerned about having a boy and takes some lessons on diapering a circumcised baby. She's nervous about what to do with a penis. Plus 7 to Kroy who already seems to be a pro with the diaper detail. 

Surprisingly Kim's not the only one wondering what to do with the penis in the room. Thanks to Phaedra, Kandi's 35th birthday went from an elegant rooftop affair to a strip show and masturbation tutorial. 

Before we go there, I have to ask if anyone else thought NeNe was going to fall out of that dress. I know the cleavage was plentiful at this party but something about NeNe's outfit had me worried about a wardrobe malfunction. Minus 6.

Kandi, Phaedra and some of the other guests enjoyed the stripper but NeNe and Kandi's mom ran out of the room. Minus 8 because this really wasn't the venue for such a spectacle and although it was ridiculous, NeNe and momma overreacted.

And poor Kandi was left feeling like a scolded five year old on her 35th birthday. Minus 10. Better luck with birthday number 36.

EPISODE TOTAL: -36. SEASON TOTAL: -25.

    Kandi I am surprised that you would allow Phaedra bring a stripper in to your party, You should have felt disrespected also. Your mom had every right to be angry. You never allow any of your friends to disrespect your mom. All you had to do is ask phaedra about the surprise, would it offend anybody, especially your mom. Who wants to look at a naked man, it was vulger. I love you but it was wrong. I lost respect for you.

    I love you Kandi, but your mother was right. To me on your 35th birthday it was very inappropriate to have a stripper, and big disrespect. Phaedra was very disrespectful to your mom. I am surprised that Nene did not stay, everybody that had any class should have walked out. I feel your show gives a bad name for black women just because they have money, it seems to go to their head, I believe a man that causes division in a family, is not the one for you.Why all of you stop using so much profanity. I love you girls, I love Nene, but girl just because you got money, do not be proud, stay humble.I feel Nene you come on strong because you are very insecure, also you want to be loved, but you push people away, you do not want to be hurt. Kandi keep it clean.

    Kandi's mom over reacted big time!!!! Kandi didn't know the stripper was going to be there. The stripper was a surprise from Phaedra! Of course Phaedra didn't have her mother nor husband there because it was a party for "young adult friends" Joyce should have gone to brunch or dinner with Kandi earlier in the day to celebrate and then allow Kandi to celebrate at 35 with her friends! Joyce said she doesn't want people to think she parties with her daughter but every time I see her she's almost at every event with the ladies celebrating. Kandi's mom acted like a spoiled brat. She should have pulled Kandi to the side and expressed how she felt and then left but she had to create an unnecessary scene by having a temper tantrum. Funny cause in the next scene she half naked on national tv looking for a man on a website yet she doesn't want people to think she and her daughter party together. She wants to be respected as Kandi's mother but she sits and talks about sex and everyting

    i don't feel it's Kandi's fault.Phaedra should have told Kandi what she was doing or tell one of the other's.Then she could have set it up where mama Joyce wouldn't be around on that part.I agree about partying with your mother,in this case it wasn't what was brought to the party it was what he DID.That should have been for the AFTER AFTER party(would have loved to see it 3D.yes,i do agree Peter is abusing mentally and financially. I think Peter and Nene are too close they kiss more than Cynthia and Peter.I think Cynthia need to do her thing in the NY.Nene is my girl,but they do say $$$ changes your mood and attitude but damn change your hair too. She came back with busted hairdo compared to last popular do.
