Haven’t Kandi Burruss and Tamar Braxton beefed long enough? Kandi certainly seems to think so, but a messy interview question and viral clip of Tamar nearly rekindled their conflict.

During an interview with ET‘s Brice Sander Kandi discussed her time on RHOA and producing Othello on Broadway with Denzel Washington. She also discussed the reality TV spinoff about her family restaurant, Kandi & the Gang. The series focused on launching and running the Old Lady Gang soul food spot. Bravo cancelled the show, but Kandi revealed that she might reboot it on another network. Then things went left when Sander asked if she would welcome Tamar as a special guest on the series.
Kandi wasn’t having it and she went off! The former Xscape singer swiftly shut down the shady invitation to rehash her relationship and “clowns” trying to keep the beef going.
“You will not be bringing her in my interview. I’m not playing games with clowns. I’m not about to be in the circus with [her]…never again,” Kandi quickly clapped back.
Kandi clearly wasn’t feeling the question, but Sander asked what we all wanted to know. Tamar’s opinion on Old Lady Gang had everyone talking after a video of her slamming the restaurant resurfaced. In the viral clip, she dragged the Atlanta eatery and its reputation for “nasty” food.

var origin = document.createElement( 'a' ); origin.href = e.origin;
// Verify message origin if ( 'embeds.go.ione.nyc' !== origin.host ) return;
// Verify message is in a format we expect if ( 'object' !== typeof e.data || undefined === e.data.msg_type ) return;
switch ( e.data.msg_type ) { case 'poll_size:response': var iframe = document.getElementById( e.data._request.frame_id );
if ( iframe && '' === iframe.width ) iframe.width = '100%'; if ( iframe && '' === iframe.height ) iframe.height = parseInt( e.data.height );
return; default: return; } }
if ( 'function' === typeof window.addEventListener ) { window.addEventListener( 'message', funcSizeResponse, false ); } else if ( 'function' === typeof window.attachEvent ) { window.attachEvent( 'onmessage', funcSizeResponse ); } } if (document.readyState === 'complete') { func.apply(); /* compat for infinite scroll */ } else if ( document.addEventListener ) { document.addEventListener( 'DOMContentLoaded', func, false ); } else if ( document.attachEvent ) { document.attachEvent( 'onreadystatechange', func ); } } )();
“Nobody has yet to say how nasty Old Lady Gang is. That’s a known thing here in Atlanta. Nobody is saying ‘yo, where we going to go eat? Let’s go to Old Lady Gang,’” the baby Braxton said.
“Nobody is saying, B***h where we going to eat? B***h let’s go to Old Lady Gang WHO? Let’s just be honest, is we being honest? I’m just being honest,” she continued.
In February, Tamar cleared the air about the 3-year-old video and claimed there should be no smoke after all this time.
“It was a three-year-old video. I don’t know how it came to see the light of day. I don’t really give a sh*t. I wish everybody well, I’m not into drama anymore,” the more mature Tamar said about the situation.
At the time of the video, Tamar and Kandi dragged each other about everything from their relationships to singing voices after their men got into an argument.
Now, it sounds like both R&B divas want to save the drama for the stage because their days as clapback queens are over. But that won’t stop internet instigators from trying it anyway.
