Nene Leakes Blatantly Ignores Criticism for How She Took Aim at Pal Tanya Sam on ‘RHOA’

The shade thrown on Sunday’s episode of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” was boosted to epic proportions when Nene Leakes started taking aim at her friend Tanya Sam.

As the cast enjoyed a meal during a girls trip to Destin, Fla., Leakes began tearing into Sam over her fashions.

“You know, Tanya, I want you to understand that I have very little tolerance for ignorance …  Because you wear labels and you say that you are fashion, just know that you may be fashion in your eyes but you are not fashion in my eyes,” Leakes explained to her pal after blasting her for taking the “B—- Stole My Talent” competition seriously. “I have many a fashions, honey. … I own stores, I have fashions, I am a serial entrepreneur, and I am a successful black woman.”

The Dec. 23 shade came on because Leakes took offense to Sam identifying a pair of glasses from Leakes’ Swagg Boutique as a low-end item in her high-fashion ensemble during the talent game.

“Tanya is drop dead gorgeous!!” one fan said on Instagram in response. “That jealousy look ain’t cool!! You all have nice stuff… Label don’t make you as u all said. Tanya is naturally gorgeous!! Stop the hate Nene…We all over 50 and be classy!! @neneleakes.

“@glesadedeaux You can only go off what they showed you🤷🏾‍♀️ focus on the POSITIVE! Which was, your girl Nene Fair Leakes hosted the BEST girls trip EVER in Bravo housewives FRANCHISE history with love light sisterhood and a little bit of shade #shewins.”

But while Leakes was content to brush off the criticism, other fans agreed that she needed to be nicer.

“I’m over Nene this season… she’s very negative.”

“Correct me if I’m wrong, when they bought Tanya on, Nene introduced her as a Swagg customer and her friend. Now she gets on the show and you try and drag her for NO reason. I think. Nene needs to humble herself. Swagg doesn’t support it self without customer. I damn sure know I wouldn’t support you then you treat me nasty. She needs to take a few dollars 💵 and buy some class and a piece of humble pie.”

“It wasnt nice NeNe it’s not always about you.”
