Finally, the cast is getting the message.
I have been saying this since forever.
I feel bad that they had to pay for their own photo shoot to make themselves look good, but that's how much Bravo fucking sucks!
They need to talk about these kinds of things more, because RHONY and RHOBH have always gotten the best photo shoots and promotion, while Atlanta was always left out in the cold.
[quote] Controversy Stirs Around âReal Housewives Of Atlantaâ Castâs Self-Funded Photo Shoot For Season 14 Promo
Just ahead of the hit Bravo seriesâ Season 14 premiere, the ladies of The Real Housewives of Atlanta were already caught up in some controversy.
New cast images and a trailer were released for RHOA on April 27 that differed from the ones previously provided by Bravo.
The ladies of Atlanta wore metallic hues set in front of a light grey background in the network designated assets. In the new press materials, they sported white and silverish looks that pop against their signature âGeorgia peachâ orange background.
The ladies also posed in front of light grey-toned background in some of other their new promotional material as well.
âI think thereâs some confusion that Bravo didnât give the #RHOA ladies a photo. They did, see below. The ladies didnât like it and wanted to do their own to have more for pr/marketing. They filmed their own promo as well. The ladies paid for their own, but that was their choice,â wrote journalist Anthony Dominic on Twitter on April 28.
In Dominicâs replies, some users said:
[quote] âWhy does #RHOBH get better promo though?â
[quote] âNo budget versus all the budget,â
[quote] âThe HW photo the ladies did is sooooooo much better. Bravo should reimburse them and then some. Their photo will increase viewership TREMENDOUSLY!!! #RHOA.â
Another user penned: âThereâs no confusion. Bravo has an inappropriate level of taste when it comes to Atlanta and Potomac. Their photo would have been fine for NJ or OC. Atlanta deserves the same effort given to BH and NY, even though they never earn it.â
Interestingly, one Twitter user even referenced the news that broke in late April that RHOA alum NeNe Leakes is suing Andy Cohen, NBCUniversal, Bravo, production companies True Entertainment and Truly Original and several executives over workplace discrimination.
âSooooooo did NeNe lie?â the online user questioned.
In another tweet Dominic shared, the journalist emphasized the Season 14 RHOA cast self-funded their own promotional shoot because they wanted to take their PR âinto their own hands.â
