I had the pleasure of being invited to an exclusive event to celebrate the upcoming show for singer/songwriter/RHOA star Kandi Burruss new show “The Kandi Factory”. It was a private pre-screening of the new BravoTV show hosted by Upscale Magazine at Aurum Lounge in Atlanta,GA. It was an amazing event indeed in which several ATL celebs showed up to support Kandi and we were all able to watch the full show before it airs on television.
Special thanks to Satchel Jester, editor at Upscale Magazine, for the invitation to the event.
Below are some of the photos that I personally captured at the event.
Kandi Burruss is also the cover girl for May 2013 issue of Upscale Magazine.

Highlight of the night for me. I met Latavia Roberson. I am a HUGE Destiny’s Child fan and it was a pleasure meeting her. She was so humble and sweet! Congrats!!
The superstar of the evening stepped out on the red carpet for her private screening party for Kandi Factory.

Overall the event was fantastic. Kandi Buruss has so many business ventures with her songwriting, reality star status for Real Housewives oF Atlanta, Kandi Koated Night weekly online show, Tags Boutique owner, Bedroom Kandi, and now Bravo’s Kandi Factory what can’t this woman do? She is a mini mogul in the making and I was happy to be in the building to celebrate the success of the upcoming show. The show was amazing, and special celebration for me because I was on the 1st episode!
Yes I attended two tapings of The Kandi Factory back in November when it was being filmed, and while watch the private screening I saw myself a couple of times in the audience (yayness!) . The show debuts tonight on BravoTV at 10pm. Please make sure you support Kandi and to get a glimpse of your favorite blogger & social media-lite on the little screen.
Series Premiere of The Kandi Factory tonight on Bravo at 10pm EST

Latavia looks really pretty and I love the pic of Kandi and her mother and daughter. But why didn’t SOMEONE blend her undereye concealer?! Otherwise she looked amazing, and like you said is indeed a mogul in the making! Go Kandi!
Girl you stay attending events. I need to move ASAP because there’s nothing like this in my area!!
