Arrest in ‘Housewives' ex-fiancé beating death | ajc.com

Atlanta police charged a strip club employee with voluntary manslaughter Saturday in the beating death of the former fiancé of the newest member of the reality television show The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Ashley “A.J.” Jewell, who was engaged to Kandi Burruss until last August, died of massive head injuries at Piedmont Hospital. He was fatally injured in a "one-on-one" fight with Fredrick Richardson Friday night, police said.
Richardson also was injured as the two exchanged blows outside the strip bar, the Body Tap Club, Friday night. Richardson was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital where he will remain until doctors say he can be discharged. Then Richardson will be taken to the Fulton County Jail, according to police spokesman Officer James Polite.
Polite said detectives were still “trying to figure out [what happened]. We had a pretty good number of witnesses that are being cooperative.”
But the cause of the fight in the parking lot of the club in the 1200 block of Marietta Boulevard was still not known Saturday, Polite said.
Jewell was part-owner of Body Tap, a club popular with celebrities.

Burruss was flooded with condolences on her social networking pages on Twitter.com and MySpace.com.
Burruss thanked friends for their condolences and asked for prayers for Jewell’s six children.
But she asked to be left alone. “im just in one of those moods where i dont wanna talk, i dont wanna b held & told its gonna b ok. i just wanna cry myself 2 sleep, alone,” she wrote on a Twitter.com post.
She also posted that she had to get some rest before her uncle’s funeral on Saturday.
Kim Zolciak, a fellow "Housewives" castmate, said in a phone interview from California Saturday morning how "disgusted" she was that someone could take a life like this.
"My heart and prayers are with Kandi, AJ's children and family," she said. "I can't imagine the loss they're feeling. I'll be there for my dear friend Kandi."
Zolciak added, "I adored A.J. He will definitely be missed."
Burruss, who has a daughter, joined the other Atlanta "housewives" this season as they focus on their status, their clothes and who’s arguing and why.
Jewell, as Burruss’ fiancé, appeared occasionally the show. In some episodes the 33-year-old Burruss argued with her mother over her relationship with Jewell.
Burruss is an award-winning singer-songwriter and a solo performer. She was a member of the now-disbanded R&B group Xscape.
According to an interview last month with the entertainment Web site Essence.com, Burruss and Jewell had taken a “hiatus” from their relationship but remained friends while they worked on their issues.

Atlanta police interview person of interest in death of Atlanta "housewife" fiance | ajc.com

Atlanta homicide detectives have a “person of interest” they are interviewing in the death of the former fiancé of the newest member of the reality television show The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Ashley “A.J.” Jewell, who was engaged to Kandi Burruss until last August, died of massive head injuries he suffered in a “one-on-one” fight in the parking lot of an Atlanta strip bar, the Body Tap Club in the 1200 block of Marietta Boulevard.
Atlanta police spokesman Officer James Polite said detectives were still “trying to figure out [what happened]. We had a pretty good number of witnesses that are being cooperative.”
But the cause of the fight was still not known Saturday.
Polite said Jewell worked at the club but he did not know in what capacity. Burruss said in an interview with the entertainment Web site Essence.com last month that Jewell had bought an interest in an Atlanta club but she did not identify the business.
Burruss, who has a daughter, was flooded with condolences Saturday on her social networking pages on Twitter.com and MySpace.com.
Kandi Burruss thanked friends for their condolences and asked for prayers for Jewell’s six children.
She also asked to be left alone. “im just in one of those moods where i dont wanna talk, i dont wanna b held & told its gonna b ok. i just wanna cry myself 2 sleep, alone,” she wrote on a Twitter.com post.
She also posted that she had to get some rest before her uncle’s funeral on Saturday.
Burruss joined the program that features metro Atlanta “housewives” who focus on status, clothing and who’s arguing and why.

AJ, Kandi's Fiance from RHOA, Killed

2009-10-03T02:29:00.003-04:00

Condolences to Family and Friends of AJ Jewell

AJ Jewell, most recently known as the fiance of singer/songwriter Kandi Burress was killed this morning in Atlanta. His children, Kandi, and his family are in my thoughts. Story after the pic.

Courtesy of: Gyantunplugged.com

Before I start with this devastating news, I would like to state for the record that I have confirmed the unfortunate news that AJ Jewell has passed away through multiple RELIABLE sources.

Sad news has just come down the pipe regarding Real housewives Kandi Buruss and her former fiance and successful club promoter AJ Jewell.

While I don’t know all the details just yet I have been able to confirm that Jewell was killed just moments ago during an incident that occurred at Body Tap this evening. Witnesses state that an altercation of some kind occurred, which resulted in Jewell being fatally injured.

My heart goes out to the Jewell and Buruss family. AJ leaves behind six beautiful children.

From ajc.com:

The fiance of Kandi Burruss, a cast member on "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," was killed Friday evening at a northwest Atlanta strip club, according to WSB Atlanta.

Burruss' fiance, A.J. Jewell, died from a head injury sustained in a brawl at the Body Tap club, located at 1271 Marietta Blvd.

Burruss' publicist Lisa Nelson confirmed to WSB that the actress has been informed of the incident and said the family asked for privacy.

Police said it's unclear what prompted the fight. No arrests have been made.

55k??

2009-07-26T11:55:00.003-04:00

Well, first off, the 55K isn't solely for child support. It's also for alimony etc, but I agree with their sentiments. LOL

The Socialyte Tsunami

2009-07-22T11:50:00.005-04:00

"If you think these (dudes) wavy then I must be a tsunami" - Fabolous - "Swag Surfin Remix"

If you like a Hurricane, why not try a Tsunami?? This cocktail has the fresh taste of summer that you can enjoy year round.

What you need:

.5oz The clear Tequila of your choice - (I like Patron)
.5oz The light rum of your choice
.5oz The gin of your choice
1oz The vodka of your choice
Dole Orange Peach Mango juice
Grenadine
Sour mix
Sprite

Alternate recipe-
Use orange juice and peach schnaaps instead of the juice.

Although I stated you can use whatever brand you want, it's best to use a smooth brand so this doesn't end up tasting like lighter fluid. Remember I'm all about "Tastes like juice, but gets you loose."

What to do:

Pour all of the liquors into a shaker, add juice, a quick splash of sour mix and a splash of grenadine. Shake, Pour over ice and add a splash of Sprite to each glass.

If you want to make this drink icy, use smoothie fruits and the same recipe and put in a blender.

*The drink pictured is not a Tsunami, but the colors are the same.*

Desert Storm's DJ Jay West is looking for opinions on this video so if you have Twitter, hit him up at @djjaywest. I love her style, especially the Stephen Sprouse leggings, Nine West gladiators (LSA stand up lol) and the Melody Ehsani necklace. As far as the artist's sound is concerned, she reminds me of Eve mixed with Kelis (not in a good way) and the song leaves something to be desired. The kids will love it, you might like it, and it might grow on me, so here it is:

Young Cash - The Worst I Ever Had

2009-07-09T14:36:00.005-04:00

This song pretty much details why good girls get the short end of the stick. Maybe a female artist will flip it and do an answer track. Hell, I wish I could assign this to my ex as a ringback tone.

Random Thought

2009-06-19T14:08:00.003-04:00

A friend sent this to me on youtube. I'm feelin it.

Did Jeezy get stabbed???

2009-06-18T12:43:00.004-04:00

A party for celebrity spin master DJ Drama turned violent after three people were stabbed at the Luckie Lounge last night in Atlanta.

Ludacris, Estelle, Jermaine Dupree and Young Jeezy were in attendance of the party according to sources.

The incident occurred Thursday morning during a fight in the VIP area of the Luckie Food Lounge on Luckie Street about 2:30 a.m., reports say. One person was slashed on the face and two others were stabbed in their arm.

The victims were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital.

The melee involved at least 10 people and police detailed several individuals.

None of the people apprehended have been cooperative.

While the identity of the men injured have not been confirmed, reports have been suggesting that the incident was linked to a long standing feud between La the Darkman, a member of DJ Drama’s Aphilliates crew and Young Jeezy’s CTE group.

In November of 2008 La The Darkman and CTE clashed during the Dirty Awards, although Young Jeezy was not present during that altercation.

According to unverified rumors, Young Jeezy may have been one of those attacked.

Inquiries to Young Jeezy's reps were not answered immediately.

No description has been given of the attacker.
I hate to hear things like this and wish all of the victims a speedy recovery.
