Anthony, the hot-headed party planner who nearly came to blows with "Real Housewives of Atlanta" cast member Sheree (right) on last night's episode, has posted a video response in which he explains his behavior.
In the argument, which occurs at the end of the episode, both Anthony and Sheree act disprespectful and, we'll say it, crazy. But Anthony's behavior was more surprising because a/ we already know Sheree is crazy, and b/ Sheree was paying Anthony to do a job for her.
Well, not so, says Anthony. According to the party planner (who admits his behavior was "not acceptable"), his company was not working for Sheree. He says his company was asked by Bravo to incorporate Sheree's party into an existing Atlanta Music Festival event, and that she made demands (helicopters, boats, etc) and was not even compensating his company.

Sat, 08/01/2009 - 14:52 — KoreahThis video attempt to justify your arrogant, immature behavor is as disgusting as you are Anthony! I never liked Sheree' before, but after last night, the way she dished out that Realty Check to YOU...Sheree' is the business!! First and foremost, you knew what kind of personality Sheree' has before you started dealing with her on a professional level, so you should have been prepared to deal with it. You make these outlandish "tenative ideas" and your A' couldn't deliver! Then you have the audacity to get upset b/c she is calling you and asking about her event? You are out of line for that! You are rude, pretentious (I'm a top-level executive) vulgar (you tried to hit a WOMAN!), immature ("Yo mama is a B"), and down right a disgusting excuse for a man!!!! I hope you NEVER work in the industry again.
What a loaf!
Anthony you were out of line!!!
Fri, 07/31/2009 - 20:14 — Kynnedi_AniyahI am disgusted by your attempt to try to justify what led up to your foolishness! Who cares what Sheree did. You said you knew her reputation, now the world knows yours. If you had such an issue with how she was behaving, then you should have contacted Bravo and told them the event was off. You are a "top level executive" and in the SERVICE industry, you have to sometimes subject yourself to the demands people impose. If you do not have the Capacity to deal with the Demands of "diva" attitudes then you are in the wrong line of work. I'm sure this wasn't your first pushy customer and probably not the last but you lost control and inversely, now America has seen how indignant, unprofessional and tacky you conduct business. You obvously needed the publicity (or else you would have opted not to work with Sheree no matter who hired you or enlisted your services) so do not put your unruly, backyard/alley behavior on Sheree. There is NO justifiable excuse for you to verbally berate, disrespect and threaten a customer. TOP LEVEL EXECUTIVE, when she said she did not want to work with you, you should have walked out of office but you chose to demonstrate how classless you are and how inefficiently you conduct business. I hope you learned a lesson from this incident. From a professional, humane and moral standpoint, you owe Sheree Whitfield and her innocent mother an apology!!
Anthony You were WRONG
Fri, 07/31/2009 - 16:46 — sexygmaNo matter who was paying for what, you acted like a moron, talking to a woman like that. You CANNOT JUSTIFIY YOUR BEHAVIOUR. CALLING SHEREE' A BITCH ,AND HER MOTHER. SHAME ON YOU. I HOPE YOU DON'T HAVE DAUGHTERS? I'M A BLACK WOMAN AND I WAS TAKEN ABACK BY YOUR ANGER AND VILE TONGUE WHILE TALKING TO A WOMAN ON NATIONAL TV. You can go on any talk show, radio show that you want, BE A MAN, SAY YOUR SORRY, ENOUGH WITH YOUR TRYING TO SAY THAT SHEREE' PROVOKED YOU. THE WORDS CAME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. TOP LEVEL EXECUTIVE.
