      Aug 28, 2020
      AceShowbiz – NeNe Leakes has shocked fans after it’s revealed that she has deleted her Instagram account. The move appears to further fuel speculations that she will not be returning for season 13 of Bravo’s “The Real Housewives of Atlanta”.
      Fans noticed that the reality TV star’s account on the photo-sharing platform was disappeared as of Tuesday, August 25 without warning or explanation. However, her Twitter account was still up.
      Prior to deleting her Instagram account, NeNe wrote on the blue bird app, “Support Black Women, Protect Black Women! You have no idea what they’ve been thru or the WEIGHT they have carried on their backs silently for yearsssssssssss. Thank you! Bye.”
      In an interview with Us Weekly, her co-star and friend Cynthia Bailey admits that NeNe has been MIA. “I haven’t seen her,” the Bailey Wine Cellar owner said on Monday. “I know she’s dealing with some contract stuff. That’s not my business. I hope they work all that out.”
      “I always will say, whether we’re besties or not, she’s great for the show,” she went on to say while promoting the Seagram’s Escapes Peach Bellini flavor she created. “She’s been around … since the beginning of the show, and she’s good TV, and I hope they work through it. And, you know, Bravo’s always publicly said, ‘She always has a home here.’ They’ve always been supportive of whatever she wanted.”
      Prior to this, it was reported that “the ladies are a little annoyed that NeNe hasn’t signed her contract yet. They feel she does this every year and puts herself on this pedestal and they just roll their eyes a bit over it.” Despite that, it was said that the cast, who has started filming, was “not surprised.”
      NeNe herself previously opened up about the state of the negotiations regarding her return to the upcoming season. “So, I’m still on holding pattern, let me start there. And also I’d be able to say that it’s not me, it’s them,” NeNe explained. “Every single season when it ends, or at least the last 3 or 4 seasons, I have been dealing with this-going back and forth.”

      by

      Instagram

      The 52-year-old insists that the whole process takes so long because of the Bravo show’s production team, saying, ‘I know a lot of people think it’s me. … that’s not NeNe.’
      Jul 30, 2020
      AceShowbiz – NeNe Leakes has addressed rumors swirling about her for some weeks in a new Instagram Live. During the live streaming, “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star opened up about her status for season 13 of the Bravo reality show.

And also I’d be able to say that it’s not me, it’s them,” NeNe explained. “Every single season when it ends, or at least the last 3 or 4 seasons, I have been dealing with this-going back and forth.”
      Once again, the 52-year-old insisted that the whole process took so long because of the show’s production team. “I know a lot of people think it’s me. ‘NeNe holds out to the last minute,’ ‘NeNe holding out,’ that’s not NeNe. NeNe is not doing that,” she said, adding that “negotiation takes time.”
      She also talked about rumors that she allegedly calls herself the queen and the HBIC (Head B***h in Charge). “Well, I am a queen. … I’m going to continue to say I’m a queen, cause I am,” NeNe hit back. She went on to say that people should call co-star Porsha Williams the same since she “wanted the crown, I know she considered herself the queen.”

      While NeNe’s status in season 13 remains uncertain, the new season will reportedly welcome two new faces, actress Drew Sidora and Canadian YouTube star LaToya Ali a.k.a. LaToya Forever. Drew will be the second actress to appear on the show after Kim Fields, who left the series after season 7 to prioritize her acting and directing career. Meanwhile, LaToya was first reported to join “RHOA” back in 2019.

      NeNe Leakes Responds to 'Vanderpump Rules' Firing Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute

      by

      Instagram

      This arrives after Lisa Vanderpump takes to her Instagram account to issue a statement of her own, in which she condemns racism and unequal treatment among others.
      Jun 11, 2020
      AceShowbiz – NeNe Leakes joins the list of Bravo personalities who weigh in on the firing of “Vanderpump Rules” stars Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute. In an Instagram post on Tuesday, June 9, NeNe commented on the decision that the network made about Stassi and Kristen over their past racist behaviors.
      “Well alrighty then!” NeNe wrote underneath Bravo’s post of a picture featuring its statement about it letting go Stassi, Kristen, Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni. “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star went on to say, “Now we have a few more questions to ask about in other areas where there’s a major difference. Should we talk privately or publicly.”
      In the comment section of the post, people dropped some names that Bravo should look into. “See also: Kelly Dodd, Brandi Redmond, Jax Taylor, Luann de Lesseps, Kathryn Dennis,” one person wrote. Echoing the sentiment, one other fan commented, “Remove Kelly & Jax too.”
      Meanwhile, some others thought that firing Stassi and Kristen was a little bit too much. “This is a bit much. What they did was wrong yes. But it was all from years ago. The hate and cancel culture in this world lately is amazing! I think there’s more to the story with faith and to be honest her coming out with this now and not 2 years ago when it happens makes her look like she’s trying to get her next 15 min of fame,” one user said.
      Calling it a “trash decision,” someone else blasted the network, “Jumping on a #blmbandwagon This took place long ago and until now it was ‘ok’ until it was cool to be ok. Not to mention they didn’t do this to [Faith Stowers] out of racism. They did it because of actions she took on the show. Not because she was black. Horrible decision as far as Stassi and Kristen. The boys said things also long ago. So actions take years ago can come back and haunt you only when there’s a movement?? And only then?! This is utter BS to ruin people’s lives over this.”
      Prior to this, Lisa Vanderpump issued a statement condemning racism and unequal treatment among others. Making use of Instagram on Wednesday, June 10, the 59-year-old first explained that it was necessary for her to stay quiet until decisions had been made on the issues. Claiming that she now “can freely speak from the heart,” she then stated,” I love and adore our employees and I am deeply saddened by some of the lack of judgment that has been displayed.”
      She further insisted that she has “always been an equal rights activist and ally,” before declaring, “I condemn all forms of cruelty, racism, homophobia, bigotry and unequal treatment. We’ve never tolerated it in the workplace or our lives.” She added that viewers “only see a fraction of our employees on the show.”
      The firing of the four “Vanderpump Rules” stars came after former castmate Faith Stowers spoke out against Schoeder and Doute. In a chat with “Floribama Shore” star Candace Rice, Faith claimed that the pair reported her to the police for a crime she did not do just because she was a black woman. Both Stassi and Kristen have since issued an apology for their action.
