Kim Zolciak’s Attempt at a Music Career

Kim Zolciak began working on a country music album in 2008, with the title of her spinoff show “Don’t Be Tardy” coming from her music aspirations.

Zolciak promoted the single through a small club tour and even performed at the 2010 White Circuit Party in Palm Springs, with the song briefly listed in the top ten dance charts of iTunes. Zolciak also recorded other singles such as “Google Me” and “Ring Didn’t Mean a Thing.”

In 2013, Burruss filed a lawsuit against Zolciak, alleging that she wrote “Tardy for the Party” for Zolciak and that Zolciak released and sold it without Burruss’s permission. Burruss sought a temporary restraining order to prevent future sales and profits earned from the song.
