Straightfromthea.com is reporting the following updates:
1. Kim Fields will NOT be joining RHOA. Here's the tea: Ok, before I get into all the drama of this past weekend, let me start by saying that Kim Fields has officially been eliminated from the RHOA casting pool.[FLASHBACK: Kim Fields Joining RHOA Season 8?]
My sources have confirmed that Fields taped with several of the cast over the past month, but she was referred to as being ?too dry? in every scene. Apparently Fields chose the reserved approach and ?Housewives? clearly isn?t the place for that.
2. Marlo and Sheree are in... That being said, Kim Fields won?t be joining this season, but Nene?s departure clearly lifted the invisible ban that was blocking both Sheree Whitfield and Marlo Hampton?s return.Marlo is returning as a ?friend of the show,? and I?ve heard she will make several appearances alongside Kenya Moore, who needs a friend now that Claudia Jordan is gone.
3. Who are the coveted peach holders? Claudia and Nene left two peaches to be claimed and I suspect they will go to Porsha Williams and Sheree Whitfield.[Sidebar: I?m starting to think that it was Porsha that Nene was referring when she said producers forced someone to ?rent? a boyfriend this season? CLICK HERE if you missed that. But I digress.]
Kandi Burruss, Cynthia Bailey, Phaedra Parks, Kenya Moore all have secure spots w/peaches. I?ve been told that Sheree was also ?testing? for a spot but apparently her actions during Bailey?s launch party may have secured her a peach.
Word on the curb is that Whitfield threw a drink in Kenya?s face but I?m still unclear as to the nature of their disagreement.
4. Who will be the Season 8 producer?
For the record, Nene?s departure also sparked the return of Carlos King, who is back as executive producer for season 8. So you know what that means? Drama? Drama? and more Drama!
