Kim Zolciak: smoking while pregnant

Kim Zolciak from the Real Housewives of Atlanta was pictured while taking a smoke break watching an NFL game a few weeks ago.

This all would not be a big deal... but Kim is three months pregnant.

Timeline: the photo was taken in Atlanta on November 7, outside the Georgia Dome. Two weeks later, Kim and baby daddy Kroy Biermann (who plays for the Atlanta Falcons) announced they were expecting.

Someone people were saying "Maybe Kim did not know she was pregnant" well, think again. Kim told a tabloid this week she denied the pregnancy rumors in October because "I wasn't through my first trimester -- you never know what could happen."

Why is this a big deal that she is smoking while pregnant?
The Colorado Department of Health explains why it is dangerous to smoke while pregnant.

-spontaneous abortions
-fetal brain damage
-problems requiring neonatal intensive care
-infant death from perinatal disorders
-sudden infant death syndrome
-mental retardation
-behavioral problems, violence, and criminality
-cancer-causing agents in infants’ blood: potentially carcinogenic mutations; and -childhood leukemia
... and many more.

Smoking while pregnant is one of the worst things you can do for your baby. I do not understand why Kim would ever risk the life of her child for a "cig."

Kim Zolciak is pregnant

OMG! Kim Zolciak from the Real Housewives of Atlanta is pregnant!

The lucky father of this new baby is 25 year old Kroy Biermann. Kroy is a player for the NFL's Atlanta Falcons, the two have been dating since may.

I personally do not believe that this baby was planned considering the baby daddy is a mere 25 years old.

Kim was on Watch What Happens Live last Sunday and host Andy Cohen asked her about the pregnancy rumors. Kim dodged every rumor and said she was only drinking tea to preserve her singing voice. Please.. no tea in the world could ever help Kim's voice.

All-Time Favorite Housewives

For those of us who watch all of the Real Housewives, we have our favorite housewives. I thought I would do something different on my blog.

I want to start off by saying what makes a good character on the Real Housewives. My favorites all have things in common such as, the free will to speak their minds, a good sense of humor, and having famous "one-liners."

Caroline Manzo

Caroline Manzo stars on the Real Housewives of New Jersey and is 48 years old and currently married with three children. I like Caroline because she would do anything and everything for her family. Caroline is constantly defending her two sisters who are also on the show. Sometimes when she talks she sounds like she is in the mafia, but that is what makes Caroline a like-able character. She is different from the other women because she is not completely consumed about what she looks like, this woman is not selfish in the least bit.

Famous Caroline one-liners:

- “Let me tell you something about my family, we are thick as thieves and we protect each other to the end"
- "You have something to say, say it to me"

Bethenny Frankel

Bethenny Frankel is definitely a fan favorite on the Real Housewives of New York. She is 39 and currently married with a newborn baby. Bethenny is one of my favorites because she is not afraid to tell it like it is. She is always entertaining to watch and is very witty. I love her interviews on the show because she is constantly cracking jokes. If one of the other housewives are getting on her nerves, you can always count on Bethenny to set them straight.

Famous Bethenny one-liners:

- "Tell him he's in the midst of a deep homosexual panic"

- "Holy inappropriateness"

Nene Leakes

Nene Leakes is my favorite housewife of all-time. She is by far the funniest housewife that Bravo TV has ever casted. She is a divorced 43 year old single-parent to her one son, Brycen. I love Nene because she is so up-front about everything. She will get in anyone's face and tell them how she feels. Nene has the best personality and sense of humor. Nene Leakes cracks the most jokes about fellow castmate Kim Zolciak.

Famous Nene one-liners:

- "Close your legs to married men"

- "Is your wig squeezing your brain too tight, heifer?"

- "That's a dirty, low-down monkey with a wig on"

Kim's wardrobe malfunction

UH OH! On Monday's episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Kim Zolciak suffers a a style slip-up before she performs.

Kim is about to take the stage at the Palm Springs White Party singing her one-hit-wonder "Tardy for the Party," when she worries her "boobs" will fall out of her skimpy, black, tu-tu like dress.

"And if they did, I'd be COMPLETELY mortified!" she cries.

Her boobs are complety massive and rediculous looking, a few months ago it was reported that she had gotten even larger breasts implants put it.

When will she get it? Breasts those size make her appear fatter than what actaully is.

Season Premiere of The Real Housewives of Atlanta

I can already tell by the first ten minutes of the premiere that this will be a very interesting season. The first episode starts with Nene and Kim going to a shoe party. Nene then sees her ex-friend Dwight and begins screaming. Apparently, he was spreading rumors that Nene's husband, Greg, owes him $10,000. Nene argues that it was only $500 so she writes Dwight a check. He rips it up in pieces and insists that it must be given to him in cash. The two make a huge scene and Nene and Kim end up leaving the party.

There is a new girl in town and her name is Phaedra Parks. She refers to herself as s "southern belle." She is 8 months pregnant and told us this last episode that she wants to name her baby with a traditional name because she does not like when people name their children with abnormal names. Yet, I am pretty sure the name "Phaedra" is not a traditional name.. Just by seeing the first episode she already seems to be extremly annoying about how she considers herself to be so beautiful and wonderful.

Finally, Kim and Nene are friends. Or is this to good to be true? They said they have their differences, but they both love being around eachother since they always make eachother laugh. Nene accepts that Kim is a bisexual and does not place judgement on her. This is a first step to a good friendship.
