Rudy On The Real Housewives of ATL?


Keshia Knight who played Rudy Huxtable, Bill Cosby’s youngest daughter in The Cosby Show is rumored to be joining the cast of  The Real Housewives of Atlanta. My thoughts are, please don’t do it Rudy, I mean Keisha. 

At 32 years old, she’s never been married and is a regular on Tyler Perry’s House of Payne, but the exposure she will get from the Housewives, I don’t believe will be totally positive and she doesn’t need that. The educated sistah who should focus on becoming a producer herself to open up more opportunities for herself and people like her, is a graduate of Spellman University and appears to want to be famous at all costs because she has posed in “black tail” magazines like Smooth and Maxim, which is definitely not what one would expect from wholesome Rudy Huxtable.

However, like Wendy Williams said, she is in a category with other actresses like Tatiana Ali, Raven Simone and Kyla Pratt and Hollywood makes it so that there are only so many roles to go around amongst all of them, so a sistah's got to do what a sistah's got to do. However, if they all have some good sense, they should come together and create projects for themselves and others like them, since they are already established brands. 

I believe Keshia knows what she needs to do, but just hasn’t gotten around to doing it because in 2011, she commented on the fact that only white actors had won Golden Globe Awards and said: "I think that there is definitely work to be done. It can always be more diverse. We live in a very multicultural and global society. More needs to be done to increase the representation of all people and really show the world for what it is. It’s not just one color."

Aside from that, I aways wondered why she never got together with Usher before he got married and everything that ensued from that. I don't know them personally, but I used to think they would have made a great couple. Now, I don't think that anymore, as she may not want to be married to a man with children and a baby mama.

If you want to do Housewives of Atlanta for financial or fame reasons, go ahead, but know I don’t think it’s the best for you as you shouldn’t expose yourself to the world like that…
