Kim Zolciak Snapchat Name

Scroll to the Snapcode for Kim Zolciak’s Snapchat name!

Us Weekly reports that Kim Zolciak had major decisions to make on Wednesday’s episode of Don’t Be Tardy. First, she was dealing with her daughter, Brielle, who is also her assistant. Brielle is the reason they say family and business don’t mix. She’s concerned with every and anything but assisting her mother.

According to Daily Star the 38-year-old lives a very busy lifestyle. You most likely remember her from The Real Housewives of Atlanta. It’s hard to believe that this is the fifth season of Don’t Be Tardy. Make sure you’re following all of the busy former housewife’s social media accounts.

Kim Zolciak’s Snapchat name is KimZBiermann:

She just launched her new skincare product as she tries to raise her six children. Did we mention that she’s also a wife!? Her husband, Kroy Biermann, lost his spot on the Buffalo Bills NFL football team a month after joining. We all deal with stress, but when it rains it pours for Zolciak and her family.

Brielle deals with heartbreak this season so we’re giving her an easy pass on being a horrible assistant. We also see Kash start pre-kindergarden as well as her daughter Ariana do her thing in school. In the video below she discusses lip injections:

Empire Got Me Like Memes

What would we do without Empire? No matter what you think about the series, you must admit that your jaw is always on the ground when you’re watching it. For me, that infamous pillow scene marked the first time I created “Empire Got Me Like Memes.” I nearly forgot the show wasn’t real and had to call my best friend to make sure she was watching.

If you haven’t checked out our previous Empire memes post please do so now! Please use the comment section below to upload your favorite Empire memes. It’s usually Cookie Lyon that delivers the most meme-worthy moments on the series but in the season 3 premiere it was Rhonda Lyon!

Rhonda Lyon dying wasn’t the only shocking moment of the show’s “Light In Darkness” episode. We were also shocked to find out that Anika’s baby, Bella, was a girl not the baby boy that Lucious was hoping for. Not only was Lucious hoping for a boy, Anika told him that she was having a boy! There was nothing more perfect than his face when he found out it was a girl!

The show’s OMG moments don’t stop! Another shocking moment occurred when Tariq the Freak, Lucious’ half-brother, visited the mansion for dinner. He insulted every member of the Lyon family including Cookie and we couldn’t believe he made it out alive. The fact that he is a federal agent certainly helped with that!

Andre From Empire Wife, Rhonda Real Name

Rest in peace Rhonda Lyon! June 19, 1984 – May 10, 2016. The actress who plays Rhonda is Kaitlin Doubleday. Similar to you, we already miss her daily. Andre has been through it all and has revealed that he is done with God. Those are some strong words but after losing an unborn baby and a wife, we understand how he feels.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned about Empire it’s that the series can care less about our feelings. We loved Bunkie, and Lucious broke our hearts by killing him. We loved Michael and Jamal’s relationship and they broke up. Finally, we loved Hakeem and Laura getting married but Shine ruined their wedding.

Andre From Empire Wife Rhonda Real name

One person that didn’t care about Rhonda’s death is Lucious. Her horrific death happened right in front of his eyes yet he quickly rushed to the hospital where he informed Anika to make sure that her story was believable. We’re sure Anika was listening to every word Lucious had to say considering the fact that she was giving birth to her and Hakeem’s ~~son~~ daughter at the time.

The version of Andre that we’ll see throughout season 3 will be Lucious’ Andre. Lucious wants a heartless son who is willing to do anything for Empire Entertainment to continue to grow. Lucious never liked the fact that Rhonda was white and we think he’s happy that she’s dead. Now, Andre no long believes in God and will be more ruthless than ever.

Busta Rhymes On Empire

Shame on you for thinking Busta Rhymes was on Empire. That was not Busta Rhymes, that was rapper, Xzibit who plays Shine Johnson. The last time there was a mix up like this fans of the show were convinced that Freda Gatz was Dej Loaf. Freda is actually played by rapper, Bre-Z, not Dej Loaf!

It’s great to see Xzibit on Empire. Many people who watched the MTV series West Coast Customs may have trouble taking him serious but he convinces me more and more every scene. Seeing him smash that producer’s head was all I needed. The rapper’s character is just as crazy as Lucious Lyon.

Busta Rhymes On Empire

The premiere episode of Empire season 3 featured all the jaw-dropping moments we expect from the show. We still can’t believe that Rhonda is dead. Xzibit’s character, Shine Johnson, is nuts, convincing us that additional characters will die soon. Hopefully Lucious will kill Shine because we don’t like the way he treats Hakeem.

As much as we dislike 50 Cent, the relationship between Shine and Hakeem reminds us of the relationship between Tariq and Kaman on Power. Kaman, 50 Cent’s character, has convinced Tariq to join forces with him to get revenge on a man they both hate: Tariq’s father, James “Ghost” St. Patrick. Hopefully Shine won’t be able to convince Hakeem to join forces with him in order to get Lucious back!

Who Plays Juanita, The Maid, On Empire? Claudette Burchett

Claudette Burchett is the actress who plays Juanita on Empire. On the season 3 premiere of the series we saw Juanita welcome Anika Calhoun back into Lucious Lyon’s mansion. The episode featured everything we love about the series. I was shocked to find out that Rhonda died on the show. While I felt sorry for Andre, I was glad that Anika didn’t fall and lose her baby (Bella).

The season 3 premiere of Empire isn’t the first episode Juanita has appeared in. She was also seen in the following episodes: The Outspoken King, The Lyon Who Cried Wolf, Rise by Sin and Past Is Prologue. As Lucious’ housekeeper, she has seen it all. She watched Anika move out once Cookie was released from prison and she recently welcomed Calhoun, and baby Bella, into Lucious’ house.

Who Plays Juanita, The Maid, On Empire? Claudette Burchett

We thought that Juanita’s days working for Lucious were over after she was fired by Lucious’ mother, Leah Walker. Lucious made sure she was allowed back into his mansion, where she has since returned. Leah’s other son, “Tariq the Freak” is back and we don’t like him! He tried to insult Cookie while he was at Lucious’ house for dinner.

While we hated seeing Anika and Lucious kiss, in front of Cookie, during dinner, we loved seeing Cookie’s boys defend her. When Tariq tried to call Cookie out Andre became a different person and most likely would have attacked Tariq if his family wasn’t around! I can’t wait until next Wednesday.

Who Plays Royale T On Empire? Ivan Ellis

Ivan Ellis is the actor who plays Royale-T on Empire. The Chicago singer and actor has appeared on numerous episodes of the series, including “Die But Once”, “Who I Am” and “Unto the Breach.” Similar to guest star, Eric Lane aka Drop, Ivan was born and raised in Chicago. We love seeing Chicago entertainers appear on the series.

Similar to the Lyons, Ellis grew up in a large family: He was the third of four children. His mother, Brenda Ellis, is a homemaker and his father, Isaac Ellis Jr. is a mechanical supervisor for the Chicago Transit Authority. Ivan grew up on Chicago’s infamous south side that we’ve heard so much about in the past decade.

Who Plays Royale T On Empire? Ivan Ellis

Jennifer Hudson, who appeared on Empire‘s first season, is from Englewood, the same community Ellis is from. Some of the city’s most popular rappers are from the community, including Lil Durk, Chief Keef, Fredo Santana, King Louie, Young Chop and Lil Reese. Luckily, Ivan was blessed with two hard working parents who kept him busy through heavy involvement in extra curricula activities.

In addition to Empire, Ivan appeared on a 2014 episode of Chicago P.D. as Vic. He’ll also appear in the upcoming TV movie, You Can’t Hurry Love as Kyle. The talented actor’s hard work is paying off and we’ll definitely continue to follow his career!

Who Plays Drop On Empire? Eric Lane

Eric Lane is the actor who plays Drop on Empire season 3. Similar to Ta’Rhonda Jones, who plays Porsha on the series, Eric if from Chicago. The show is set in New York City yet it is filmed in Chicago. You probably recognize him from numerous films, including Barbershop, Ransum Games and Subtle Seduction.

In 2001 he appeared on the Soul Food television series as Darnell. It doesn’t stop there! He’s been acting for nearly two decades and hopefully his appearance on Empire will take his career to the next level. The first two seasons of the series broke historical records and the third will most likely do the same.

Who Plays Drop On Empire? Eric Lane

The actor takes full advantage of local roles which is very smart of him. In 2005 he appeared in “Trapped in the Closet” by Chicago singer, R. Kelly. Lane played Twan in the short movie. In 2013 he appeared on an episode of the television series Chicago Fire.

The actor’s lengthy resume reminds us of Taraji P. Henson’s speech at the Golden Globes. The actress won an award for Empire and when the teleprompter told her to wrap up her speech she clapped back, “I waited 20 years for this. You’re gonna wait.” Hard work and patience are the keys to success!

Who Plays Jack On Empire? Tha Pope Popeito Loud

Record artist, Tha Pope Popeito Loud, plays Jack on Empire. According to recent Instagram pics, it looks like he’s a part of Lucious Lyon’s powerful inner circle which includes Vaughn (French Montana) and Birdman. We can’t wait to see how Lucious’ circle operates. Adding the storyline to the series reminds us of the powerful political circle on Scandal.

We hope Lucious has learned his lesson when it comes to Shine Johnson (Xzibit). He ruined Hakeem and Laura’s wedding yet Lucious seems to favor him for some unexplained reason. We don’t understand how Lucious could murder his cousin, Bunkie, yet he won’t get rid of a liability like Shine.

Who Plays Jack On Empire? Tha Pope

The image above shows Jack with Terrence Howard. In the caption section of the post he thanks Sanaa Hamri, one of the show’s talented directors. Popeito is yet another actor that the series has introduced to the world. If it wasn’t for Fox, actor like him wouldn’t have the opportunity to share their talent with the world.

We can all learn a valuable lesson from the actor. Don’t forget to say thank you to the people who have provided you with opportunities. You can never have enough gratitude. We look forward to seeing Tha Pope in future roles thanks to his appreciative personality.

Who Plays Young Carol On Empire? Birgundi Baker

Actress, Birgundi Baker, plays young Carol on Empire season 3. The show is set in New York City but it is filmed in Chicago. Baker is originally from Raleigh, North Carolina but she lives in Chicago. Similar to Taraji P. Henson, Baker attended Howard University and graduated in 2015. When she was 9-years-old she became Kraft’s Blue Box Kid.

Tasha Smith plays present day Carol Hardaway, Cookie Lyon’s sister. On Empire‘s second season Carol has a date with Lucious’ brother, Tariq. Cookie knows there’s trouble so she intervenes before her sister can tell the Philadelphia cop too much. Cookie warns Tariq not to cross her family but we all know that Leah Walker’s sons don’t listen.

Cookie even informs Tariq the Freak that her sister has herpes. Carol gets upset and ends up crashing the ASAs. She is drunk at the event and Freda overhears her discussing Lucious killing her father, Frank Gathers. Freda tries to shoot Lucious, but she shoots Jamal instead. Birgundi will show us Carol’s teenage years, revealing the trials and tribulations that led her to drugs.

Cookie won’t be the only Cookie featured on Empire this season. At Howard University, Baker played a character named Cookie in the play Hurt Village directed by Eric Ruffin. Her hard work is paying off and her appearance on the series will definitely lead to additional roles!

Who Plays Young Candace On Empire? Lawnyae Marie

Lawnyae Marie is the actress who plays young Candace on Empire. As you know, Vivica A. Fox plays present day Candace on the Fox hip-hop drama series. Similar to Ajiona Alexus, the actress who plays young Cookie, Lawnyae started her career as an actress at a very young age. She began studying theatre when she was only 6-years-old.

On the series, Candace is the oldest sister of Cookie and Carol. While Cookie and Carol get along great, Candace is constantly arguing with her sisters. On the “My Bad Parts” episode of the series, Cookie gets a surprise visit from Candace who informs her that their sister, Carol, is missing. We find out that Carol is a recovering drug addict and the two ladies have to go to Philadelphia to save her.

Marie’s training is impressive. She graduated from Pace University’s Drama Program proving that preparation is the key to success. Prior to Pace, she attended Carnegie Mellon’s Pre-College Drama Program, Pittsburgh Music Theatre and Pittsburgh’s School for Creative Arts (CAPA). It’s great seeing an actor’s rise to fame.

Lawnyae won first place in the August Wilson Monologue contest, earning her the opportunity to be trained by Denzel Washington and Viola Davis. She is chasing the sky and with these credentials the sky is the limit. We can’t wait to see her career take off after her appearance on the series!
