Mayor Kasim Reed has finally given the many Atlantans who had waited and pleaded for him to endorse marriage equality a break.

So, what does Atlanta's mayor have to say about same-sex marriage?

Real Housewife of Atlanta Sheree managed to not pull off TV Guide's wig after its website mistakenly included a picture of her in a report of Sahara Davenport's untimely death. Instead, Sheree took the classy road for once and remained calm in her Twitter request for TV Guide to get its shit together. 

So, what did Sheree have to say to TV Guide (which has since corrected the post)?

The Georgia Aquarium got back to us regarding Jane Lynch's uber-polite request that the Atlanta Pride organizers move their kickoff event to another venue.

Their response is filled with pure Southern gentility (seriously, they're very polite), but we here at Instinct are loosely translating it as saying "Bitch, please."

They address Lynch's concerns after the jump.

As if NeNe and Kim weren't enough themselves to entertain us for an hour, In Touch is reporting that Bravo hopes to stir the pot by adding two new leading ladies to the cast of Real Housewives of Atlanta. 

So, who are the socialites set to join the drama on Bravo's flagship series?

We covered the story of Brandon White's videotaped beating in Atlanta by a group of assailants as they yelled anti-gay slurs back in February.

More after the jump.

Brandon White, 20, was attacked on Feb. 4, by three men in front of a neighborhood store in Atlanta. During the beating, White’s attackers hurled anti-gay slurs. This attack was allegedly random and was believed to have been motivated based on White’s sexuality. He also claimed to have no previous relationship with his attackers.

It turns out that may not be true and it looks like this story could get very messy. More after the jump.

Move over Lindsay, there's a new hot mess title-holder for the "most elegant mug shot ever in history ever" tiara: the Real Housewives of Atlanta's former brightest star, Dwight. Details on the reality star's dreadful recent arrest follow.

Real Housewife of Atlanta Kim Zolciak is a hoot (yes, we really just used that word) to watch, which is why the wig-mogul was deemed deserving of her own spinoff series. But did the series really deserve what might easily be the worst TV title in history?
