‘Again?!’: Nene Leakes Fans Sick and Tired of Her Signature White T, One Vows to Burn It

Nene Leakes has made it a habit to rock white T-shirts in various combinations of clothing, and the star’s new set of photos promoting her storefront is no exception.

On Instagram over the weekend, the star posted three photos modeling some pieces of clothing available at Swagg Boutique, which opened a location in the DMV (D.C.-Maryland-Virginia area) at MGM National Harbor last month.

“The Queen at Swagg Boutique #DMV @mgmnationalharbor,” one image was captioned.

Fans readily applauded “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star for her beauty and apparently youthful looks.

“BEAUTIFUL❤️💕”

“Is That’s her daughter omg u really need to stop honey.”

“You look like a teenager!!!👌”

“You look extremely young here👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾beautiful.”

However, the attention soon turned to Leakes’ penchant for rocking white T-shirts.

“@taelove99 this f-ng white T-shirt 😩😩”

“Uma burn that white T shirt.”

“Raggedy White T again 🙄 you own a clothing store!!! Wear some Clothes!!!”

“All she wears is a white tshirt, pants and a kimono jacket 😂😂😂”

“Where does she get her T-shirt’s ?? Anyone know ?? 🥰”

The star has gained attention for rocking the V-neck before. Last year, the star was equally criticized over her tee and another key piece of clothing — her camouflage pants — when she posted a pic advertising Swagg Boutique. This time, it was in promotion of the store’s location in the Atlanta suburb of Duluth, Georgia.

“You love this camo pants w/ white tee look, huh Sis?!”

“Am I the only person 🤔?!… This chic loves them camouflage pants! But you doing your thing! #rhoa #neneleakes #teamnene #bloop.”

“NeNe is the coolest for sure 😎 you getting some serious mileage out of that camouflage and white t shirt outfit tho girl 😂 #lightshade.”

Leakes was also wearing the well-worn T-shirt in another recent photo where she drummed up scrutiny. The “RHOA” star, who is said to still be in contract negotiations and thus has yet to film for season 12, had fans puzzled by what appeared to be another nose job or the overuse of photo editing software.

“You look fake.”

“Dam did she get another nose job. Gurl, you said you’re rich, go to Dr. Nasif in LA and get a nose appropriate for your face.”

“Who dis woman?!?!”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
