Cynthia Bailey Hopes To Add Some Class To 'Real Housewives Of Atlanta'

AJC.com:

Atlanta model Cynthia Bailey didn’t show up at all in the first episode of the third season of “Real Housewives of Atlanta” last week.

“They’re saving the best for last!” she joked in a phone interview last month.

Indeed, at least over the phone, Cynthia came across as articulate and sure of herself. She feels she brings a sheen of sophistication for a show often known for hair-pulling, catty, drag-out verbal and physical altercations.

“With me, you get Atlanta, New York, the Hamptons, Martha’s Vineyard and Europe,” she said. “That’s all my life.”

Her first appearance tonight on the show will be at the Dogwood Festival with Nene Leakes. She said she knew none of the women personally before joining the cast.

“I’m a little more laid back” than NeNe, Bailey said.  “I have a lot to say but I don’t need to hype the stage. I just wait for you to get off the stage. NeNe’s way bigger. Bigger, bigger, bigger! Our first time we met, we did not hit it off at all. Second time, it was better. The third time, we really connected. It organically happened.”

Adding "class" around the likes of Nene Leakes and Kim Zolciak?!? Good luck with that.
