What’s despicable is when a person refuses to pay you after you’ve done a service. What is even worse is people not paying you because they think “since you already got money, then you don’t need this little extra.” This is the case that has brought me out of “Real Housewives of Atlanta” hibernation. Yes, I had to take a break from reality show recaps because it was simply becoming redundant story lines and way too much nonsense. However, since Kandi Burruss, Todd Tucker and Phaedra Parks is having this excessively extended disagreement about an unpaid DVD, then I said why not put my two cents in on the matter. For the past eight episodes, RHOA Season 9 has shined more light on the Kandi & Phaedra beef. The slippage of their friendship began last season when Phaedra questioned Kandi’s ability to be a “good friend”. This season, Kandi’s husband Todd is fed up with Phaedra and Apollo for not paying him in full for production completed on their fitness DVD. Kandi is caught in the middle of the fued, but we know that at the end of the day she’s is going to choose her man over a “sometimey” friend like Phaedra. During a meeting at Phaedra’s office, she gave Todd a BS excuse as to why she hasn’t paid him the remaining $8,425. “It has been a very rough time for me so my priority was my family and health,” says Phaedra. Yes, we all know Apollo was sent back to prison and she’s left with two kids to raise. They’ve avoided paying Todd for over two years. Out of all that cash that Apollo was scamming up, he could have easily paid off this DVD debt. If you can waist $15K in a strip club, you can pay Todd his money. And, Phaedra is a well-established lawyer. Why is she acting like Todd’s outstanding balance isn’t a priority? Hell, I’m sure she keeps those lights on each month for her kids. Todd Tucker Productions is a business just like any other business. He should be paid. Now, I did’t understand why Porsha and Kandi’s manager Don Juan became so engulfed in the beef. But, everyone needs to add “meat” to their story line, right? *rolls eyes* If Phaedra doesn’t settle her debt by the end of the season, as a business, Todd should send it to collections. Allow this unpaid balance to affect Phaedra’s credit. Or take her to court. Just because she’s an attorney, doesn’t mean she will win the case and not forced to pay the money. Honestly, what I believe Phaedra isn’t paying up because she thinks that this money is a small thing to Todd and Kandi. The happy couple may be financially set, however, no one should assume that $8,425 isn’t a lot of money. Even to a rich person, it’s a lot of money. And like Todd said, it’s all about the principle. On Sunday evening, Kandi took to Instagram to clarify a few things and to defend her husband… In 2015 My husband @todd167 had 3 shows that he was executive producer on to air on 3 different networks. People lie but credits don’t. Check the credits! We’re trying to move past this petty bs about this workout DVD but it’s always tough to watch the drama play out today over things we’ve supposedly worked out already. I just want to make things clear for people who are watching this episode of RHOA. My husband is great at what he does & he’s been successful at it. People always talk shit on this show but I hate when they try to discredit him with lies. Let me just clear up something for y’all. Todd & Phaedra talked years ago when she was pregnant with Dylan about him helping her with production for her pregnancy DVD. He was doing it as a friend because he said they could do it way cheaper than the company she worked with on her 1st workout DVD. She approved the budget & she paid the first 2 payments but never paid the third for whatever reason. This was well before Apollo went to jail. Todd sent final invoice emails but there was just excuses & no payment. I told him not to worry about it & give her time. But now years have passed. You know how it is when you have a friend who owes you money but they come around with new shit all the time but never mentions your money… That’s why he was irritated. So to everyone who is coming at us in the chat box saying my husband waited for her husband to go to jail to ask for his money as if he was scared to ask, that is absolutely not true. He’s was asking long before. Just never got all his money. Simple…. And Todd was never being mean or disrespectful to her. He always remained cordial. The video was shot & finalized in 2013. She was suppose to give him the photo she wanted to put on the DVD menu & final payment back then…. It’s 2016 people. I hope this gives y’all some clarity. #NoShade #AllFacts A photo posted by Kandi Burruss (@kandiburruss) on Jan 3, 2016 at 6:03pm PST
