Well, we are!  Welcome to Season 7 of The Real Housewives of Atlanta,  Claudia.

Claudia Jordan, the gorgeous former TV Fame Show Model turned TV Host & commentator is a breath of fresh air for this longtime top of the Nielsen Ratings  gold--RHOA franchise.  Alright, alright maybe not  a breath of FRESH air because that is what we tohught Kenya Moore would be and she ended up being a pot stirrer but certainly Jordan who is  from the "north" by way of Rhode Island will bring a different perspective to things.  After all Jordan is one of the first ever African-American game show models on National TV via The Price is Right  and later Deal or  no Deal , additionally she's a former Celebrity Apprentice contestant--all substantial TV creds.  Does anyone remember Claudia Jordan from Maxim and countless other PG rated  men's glossies from the late 90s and early 2000"s? We do! We even watch her in present day as a very enlightened panelist on various cable news programs as well as follow her dabbling in real estate.  The only thing we didn't know is that Claudia Jordan is a resident of Atlanta? really? THIS we didn't know.

How will Cynthia, Kandi, Phaedra and of course Queen Bee Nene Leakes get along with the Jordan?

Guess will find out come November.
