Kandi Burruss is talking out in opposition to claims of utilizing Drew Sidora‘s alleged kiss with LaToya Ali to promote her film, The Pass, which stars her Real Housewives of Atlanta castmate.
As the forged continues to deliberate about what did or didn’t, go down between Drew and LaToya, who was contacted by Marlo Hampton amid the discussions, Kandi is firing again at Drew’s accusations as Drew reveals how she feels in regards to the matter at this time and goal’s Marlo’s “shady” video.
“It’s a shady video. If I am having a conversation, I’m defending myself, and then the way that she edited it and sent it, it wasn’t even in the full context,” Drew alleged on the August 6 episode of the RHOA: After Show. “Send the whole conversation. Send it from when I was asked the question and I’m responding to a question. Don’t take bits and pieces to where it’s just soundbites. You’re purposefully trying to instigate a situation.”
As RHOA followers will recall, Marlo filmed Drew with out her information as she denied having kissed LaToya after which despatched the footage to LaToya. However, whereas Drew claims the footage she despatched was edited, Marlo says in any other case.
“She tried to lie and say I edited the damn footage. I’m like, ‘Girl I barely know how to send a text.’ … That’s how you know she’s crazy,” Marlo famous, including that she despatched the clip to LaToya as a result of she “thought [she] was cool” and will know what was being mentioned about her.
“I’m like, ‘Let me LaToya know to stop hanging with this clown cuz this clown’s over here talking about her like this,’” Marlo recalled.
But Kandi mentioned that if it had been up to her, she would’ve acted otherwise.
“LaToya’s my girl too. I love LaToya to death. But I wasn’t necessarily gonna run back and tell her everything Drew may have said in the argument. It just was like, ‘What? Why did we bring LaToya in this?’” Kandi questioned.
Looking again on the means by which LaToya was contacted by Marlo, Drew mentioned her efforts to create drama “fell flat.”
“Marlo didn’t know that LaToya and I had been on speaking terms and trying to get to a better place. So when LaToya and I talked, it was like, well nothing was said in the video that you haven’t said to my face. So it wasn’t so much offensive it was just like, ‘Why is my name getting brought up?’ And once she understood, like, I was asked about it, and I was answering and defending the truth, no more drama at that point. So what Marlo thought she was trying to do, it fell flat,” Drew acknowledged.
Meanwhile, in one other section of the RHOA: After Show, Kandi addressed Drew’s suggestion that she pressed her on the subject of the kiss for the sake of her movie.
“Why would you say that I would make that up to promote the movie?” Kandi requested her. “I didn’t understand why she was trying to say that I was forcing this for a promo.”
“Well it just, for me, I’m like, we have not been talking about this at all. Like, this happened in 2020… So I’m just like, ‘Why now are we talking and having this conversation?’” she defined. “And then it was like, ‘Oh well maybe because I’m about to do a movie involving that.’ That was my own thought. I own it. I was gonna ask you but it just got to you before I could.”
Drew shared that after Kandi first introduced up the alleged kiss at their forged brunch, she talked about it once more throughout a dialog with Sanya Richards-Ross, telling her she believed Drew did kiss LaToya.
But in accordance to Kandi, it was Todd who requested everybody.
“It wasn’t about you specifically,” she insisted.
Still, Drew instructed her, “We had a conversation so then it was brought up again in Portugal so I just felt, for me, I’m like, ‘Why do we keep bringing it up?’ And I did tie it to, maybe the movie. Because Kandi, well, [you are] a good businesswoman.”
Although Kandi could also be a great businesswoman, she was unwilling to take possession of getting staged drama with Drew for her film.
“I don’t fake drama for the sake of business,” Kandi famous, going on to level out, I didn’t make the video. I didn’t ship it to LaToya. I wasn’t even there if you guys actually began going backwards and forwards so I simply was like, ‘This is loopy.’”
“It honestly was a shock to me when LaToya told me she had a video sent to her. I was like, ‘Wait what?’ LaToya wasn’t even filming with us. She wasn’t even on the show at this time. It was like, you’re trying to be extra messy and start sh-t,” she continued of Marlo’s antics.
As for the place they stand at this time, Drew mentioned all is properly between her and Kandi.
“We talked about it… [And] I believe her when she says this wasn’t to promote or anything like that,” she confirmed.
