UPDATE: Pulliam posted the following to Twitter a little bit ago, addressing the rumors: "I am NOT joining the cast of RHOA this season… Next season or any season. I honestly don't know where this rumor is coming from!! Pls RT"

You may call it a questionable career move (at least I do), but actress Keisha Knight Pulliam (who's all grown up now, but will be forever known as little Rudy from The Cosby Show) has reportedly joined the cast of the reality show, The Real Housewives of Atlanta, which has been shooting for several weeks now, for its fifth season.

Pulliam, after leaving The Cosby Show, went to gradaute from Spelman College, and has been living in Atlanta for several years, working as both a business woman (who just recently launched her summer camp, Kamp Kizzy, for young teenage girls), and as an actress, working on indie projects as well as Tyler Perry TV shows and movies like Madea Goes To Jail.

Whether or not this is really the right venue for Pulliam, you will have to admit that it at least keeps her in the public eye.

But at what cost?
