Real Housewives Star NeNe Leakes Wants An Army To Bring Her Down

UPDATE-Is NeNe Leakes a scared bully? NeNe Leakes, the undisputed star of the Real Housewives of Atlanta tackled claims of whether or not she’s a bully on Wendy Williams Wednesday morning.

Wendy confessed she believed NeNe has in fact changed but the word bully is misused in her case. “I feel as though because you are big, because you are black, because you are bold when you approach people sometimes it is over bearing and they immediately want to paint us (Wendy & NeNe) with the bully word,” says Wendy.

Well NeNe was more than happy to accept Wendy’s explanation but it didn’t take long for Williams to fire back with claims that NeNe is mean spirited. To which NeNe responded, “I’m very nice”. Do you think NeNe Leakes is a kind person underneath it all but has become a warped caricature of herself?

Watch NeNe on Wendy Williams. She also dishes on her co-stars Kandi Burruss and Sheree Whitfield.

But while NeNe is attempting to convince Wendy and her viewers that she’s soft as a teddy bear she was busy barking at her “haters” on her Bravo TV blog. After called Kandi two-faced, Sheree Whitfield boring (again) and Kim Zolciak fake, NeNe closed with this statement:

“I don’t want to spend too much time talking about the jealousy these girls have shown towards me, but I do want to say that I’m a tough girl. I worked hard to get where I am, and I have earned every bit of it! It’s going to take an army to bring me down, so keep trying haters, but it’s not going to work!”

Is NeNe Leakes reaching the end of her fame on the Real Housewives of Atlanta?

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
