Candy from house wifes of atlanta?

You're likely thinking of Kandi Burruss, a cast member on the Bravo reality show "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."

While she's not called "Candy" on the show, she is a successful singer, songwriter, and businesswoman. She's known for hits like "Don't Think I'm Not" and "No Scrubs" (which she co-wrote).

"Candy" might be a nickname for her or perhaps a character she played on the show, but it's not her official name.
