Kenya Moore Defends Her Antics at Charity Event, Says She’s Not Crazy

By: Amanda Anderson-Niles

Kenya Moore has certainly brought the drama to season five of Real Housewives of Atlanta. The former Miss USA has pretty much beefed with just about every single one of her cast mates (with the exception of NeNe Leakes and Kandi Burruss) and seems to be the most outrageous person on the hit reality show. It all started when she got into a senseless argument with Porsha Stewart for mistakenly calling her Miss America at a charity event, but things really took off when her on-screen beau Walter Jackson went to an Atlanta radio station and claimed that Kenya asked him to pretend to be her boyfriend for the cameras, seeing that Bravo requires all the housewives to be involved in romantic relationships. Although Kenya denied the accusations, many find themselves believing Walter’s story.

Now that she has ended things on-screen with Walter, Kenya is back to beefing with the other housewives. And now her current target is Phaedra Parks. Phaedra and Kenya started off great but things went sour when both couldn’t see eye to eye on a business deal that would have given Kenya permission to distribute Phaedra’s workout DVD series.

Now that Phaedra has decided to do business with another company, both have resorted to taking shots at one another and even talking behind each other’s backs since both feel the other is at fault for why the deal didn’t work out.

After hearing that Phaedra thinks she’s bipolar and may even have a bit of a drinking problem, Kenya decided to “impersonate” Phaedra and show up to NeNe’s charity event dressed up as Phaedra (in a bathing suit and butt pads) and many feel she made a complete fool of herself. Although she did eventually tell Phaedra what was on her mind, many people feel what Kenya did at the charity event was inappropriate. And some even feel she may have proved that Phaedra was right.

To no surprise, Kenya feels what she did was justified and she still claims she is not crazy. In her Bravo blog, she writes:

“Undoubtedly with malice, Phaedra repeatedly and intentionally slanders and defames me with unfounded and untrue statements. All as punitive action when she learned of my intentions to make my own fitness video. I have never been drunk a day in my life. Yet Phaedra wants everyone to believe I “drink like a fish.” Phaedra asserts that she believes I am bipolar or have a chemical imbalance. The only thing that makes me “crazy” is that I ever believed this woman was my friend. She is a malicious, despicable human being, who intentionally sought to malign my reputation and harm my future business with her debasing lies.

“…I believe I have seen Phaedra’s cold black heart. From her actions alone, this is a woman who will say anything and tell any lie in order to achieve a favorable outcome for herself. This must end. I believe people can see who she really is. With me, I don’t try to hide. I keep it real. It is what it is. That being said, when people show you who they are, believe them. Phaedra is a walking, talking hypocrite. She wants to say I’m unstable, however, in actuality, she is the one who looks shady and duplicitous obviously lying to hurt me because we had a business falling out.

“Yes, I am dramatic and I wanted to make a point. STOP SPREADING YOUR VINDICTIVE LIES. Business is business. I never attacked Phaedra personally. For her to go to extremes to hurt me was uncalled for. Therefore, in rare form, I let her have it plain and simple and spoke the truth, which she nor anyone else can deny. On another note, I told NeNe beforehand that I was going to come to the event with a dramatic entrance and outfit, and as shocking as it was, NeNe could only laugh. Got to love a girl who can laugh. I’m done with this. Whether people agree with my methods or not, you cannot disagree with the validity of my truth and the facts.”
