When it comes to hustlin’, no one does it harder than Kandi Burruss.
The Georgia peach isn’t afraid to be booked and busy all while being a wife, mom and certainly one of our favorite Real Housewives of Atlanta.
In all the ways that the singer is a boss, she isn’t afraid to try new things and collect her coins along the way.
We’ve rounded up all of Ms. Burruss’ forays into the business world, from the culinary world to the bedroom.
01
Xscape
After a nearly 20-year hiatus, the ladies of Xscape are back to just kickin’ it–and Burruss is securing the bag. The singer started her career with the ATL-born group, comprised of Tameka “Tiny” Harris and sisters Tamika and LaTocha Scott in the early ’90s. After their breakup in 1998, the four went their separate ways before reuniting in 2017 for a tour, two back-to-back ESSENCE Fest performances, a reality show and an upcoming TV movie.
02
The Real Housewives of Atlanta
Burruss joined the hit Bravo series, The Real Housewives of Atlanta, in its second season in 2009 and has been living peachy ever since.
03
Old Lady Gang
In March 2017, Burruss explored the culinary world by opening up a restaurant, Old Lady Gang (OLG), inspired by her mother, Joyce, and aunts, Bertha and Nora. With an amazing soul food-inspired menu, the restaurant is one of the newest hot spots in Atlanta. It’s so popping, in fact, OLG just opened its second location in Phillips Arena, home to the Atlanta Falcons.
04
Bedroom Kandi
The singer and reality star doesn’t just share her talents with the world on stage, but in the bedroom too. Dropping an intimate toy line called Bedroom Kandi in 2011, Burruss expanded her resume in a fun and exciting way and let’s just, we dig the vibe.
05
Kandi Koated Nights
In 2009, The Real Housewives of Atlanta star debuted a tell-it-like-it-is late-night web show, Kandi Koated Nights . And in July, Burruss brought the same concept to the TV screen. The half-hour talk show series, hosted by Burruss, keeps it real on all topics related to love, sex, relationships, and even the “taboo” ones that make you clutch your pearls.
06
Raising Ace
After giving birth to her son, Ace Wells, with husband Todd Tucker in 2016, it was only right for Burruss to help out all the moms out there — launching a line of super cute unisex products for kids. From onesies to bibs, teething rings to towels, the adorable products are designed with little ones in mind. Oh, and because Burruss is the queen of giving back too, part of the proceeds from every sale helps charities that focus on parenting and underprivileged kids.
07
Kandi Koated Cosmetics
Because the money-centered mind of Burruss never stops, the star recently announced that she would be delving into the beauty world with her own makeup line, Kandi Koated Cosmetics. With lipsticks, eyeshadows, eyeliners, highlighters, blushes, and much more, we’re certainly ready to give Burruss more of our coins.
