'RHOA' Season 14: Who owns Drop it with Drew? Castmates feel she is the face of business rather than owning it

Fans also call out Shereé for going after Drew's business given her own initiative is yet to work out in the real market

In the newest episode of 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' Season 14, Drew Sidora attempted to clear up any confusion around her 21-day lifestyle change program. Her castmates, on the other hand, believe she is the face of someone else's company.

Drew Sidora has been hard at work conducting her Drop it with Drew program, as 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' fans are well aware. However, her castmates have made it clear for quite some time that they are unsure what the project entails. Drew, of course, was delighted to answer their queries. She highlighted the possibility of fat-loss camps. They have six locations in Chicago, one in Atlanta, and one in Florida where people may work out and follow food regimens. She also mentioned that the program contains "three-week challenges" and a "support system and a village."

Finally, it appears Drew's explanation puzzled the ladies even more. In an interview, Sanya Richards-Ross wondered if it is a meal delivery service, while Shereé Whitfield contributed her own perspective, labeling it a weight-loss camp in Chicago. Kenya Moore's takeaway was that it had the impression of a Ponzi scheme. “The 21-day Drop it with Drew program is a comprehensive program that entails Fitness, Food, and Fun," according to the company's website. We take all fitness levels and help them lose 8 to 10 pounds in 21 days.” Although Drew's buddies may not completely comprehend the business, it is rapidly expanding. She, in an earlier episode, mentioned even having an app.

Drew organized an event for her Drop it Drew program to commemorate their greatest winner in Sunday's episode of 'RHOA,' which aired on June 26. (or "loser" in this case, an individual who claimed to have dropped 100lbs in 50 weeks through this program). Drew invited all of the ladies, and everyone turned up except Kenya, who arrived fashionably late. After their workout, Sanya told Drew how difficult the routine was and how it was not suitable for beginners. Drew summons her business associate Jackie to properly explain the program to the ladies. The women inquire about Jackie's lessons and program locations.

Jackie discussed all of the venues and how the program has been running well for over 5 years. Kenya inquires if she owns all of these properties, which she does. Sanya wondered whether Jackie had brought Drew on board, to which Jackie said that because she was unfamiliar with the Atlanta market, she had to get Drew on board. Sanya adds in a confessional that it all makes sense because Jackie launched the business five years ago, and she believes Drew is being used as the program's face. Drew has joined forces with her to attract more people to Atlanta program, but Sanya believes Drew isn't an entrepreneur, which is OK. Kenya also questioned Jackie about changing the name of the program, which was previously known as "the 21-day program." Kenya acknowledges in a confessional that it is a legitimate business, but she does not believe Drew has a larger role in it. Drew dislikes being questioned about her company and brings Shereé Whitfield's SHE by Shereé into the fray.

Fans on social media however have their own view on the matter. Some fans feel since Drew is an active investor in the business, she is indeed part of the business. Their tweet read:  "If Drew invested in the business it IS partly her business. That’s a normal business model/relationship… the fans and cast acting dense #RHOA."

However, some fans feel Drew has her named stamped on somebody else's business to lure in more customers. They tweeted: "Drew (and her business partner) literally stamped her name on a 5-year old business to draw new customers. It all makes sense now. #RHOA."

Fans also call out Shereé for going after Drew's business given her own initiative is yet to work out in the real market. A tweet regarding the same read: "Now being honest here, if Sheree didn't come back, she would've never finished She by Sheree so she got a lot of nerve talking abut Drew business #rhoa".

Throwing shade at some of the other business initiatives from the rest of the castmates, a fan wrote: "Look, at the end of the day, Drew's business arrangement make more sense than some of the other "businesses" we see on these shows. #RHOA".

Some fans also felt strongly about Drew being the face of a fitness program as they tweet: "I’m not sure that making Drew the face of this fitness business was the right strategy. #RHOA".

Another tweet read: "So basically it’s REALLY NOT Drew program, she’s just the face of the brand".

One fan even compared her with 'RHOP's lady Eartha Kitt: "So Drew is the Lady Eloise of Dropping it With Drew. #RHOA".

Amidst the drama, Drew still got support from some of her fans as they call out Shereé for not having a proper business after all these years: "Drew stop letting them play you. Bc we still ain’t seen shit from Sheree #RHOA".
