Kandi Burruss has no plans on throwing in the towel in her lawsuit against former Real Housewives of Atlanta cast-mate Kim Zolciak.
As previously reported, Kandi sued Zolciak earlier this year over the iTunes hit "Tardy For The Party," a song that was released in 2009 and written by Kandi and Rodney Richards. She claimed “damages for copyright infringement due to Defendants’ unauthorized and unlawful licensing, distribution and sale of Plaintiffs’ creative works."
During the court proceedings, a judge sided with Zolciak, but Kandi plans to take things to the next level. “Kim really didn’t win. That was just one level of it,” she told Us Weekly.
She adds on why she is continuing the lawsuit: "It’s just the principal of it at this point. It’s not about the money. I’m doing great otherwise. It’s all just silly. It’s not a big deal to me. I’ve got my daughter and my fiance and am working on new music and a Broadway show that I will star in! So it’s all good."
Kandi's upcoming stage play, A Mother's Love, features Eddie Levert, Shirley Murdock, D. Woods, Q. Parker of 112 and Chandra Currelley.
