  • NeNe Leakes is pretty proud of where her life is now. In a blog post on Bravo’s website, she listed off so many things that she has done, including starring on Broadway, on stage in Vegas, and on television.

    “I am in negotiations to purchase a glamour business in Atlanta that I would like to expand to other cities to make women even more fabulous. Currently I am living out one of my dreams by starring in Cinderella on Broadway! See me in action November 25 through January 3. You can also catch me in my fourth and final season as Coach Roz on Glee.”

    But her take on the Phaedra/Apollo business raised eyebrows. She said she stood by her friend. and warns about fair-weather friends who leave when things get rough.

    “As far as Phaedra and Apollo, it’s always sad to see a family end no matter who’s right or wrong. I’m glad I can say I was a rock for Phaedra during this time and never judged her. This definitely should be an eye opener for her as well, because it’s always the ones you never thought would support you that do and the ones you thought would be there during rough times that always seem to magically disappear.”

    But don’t try to run that by former co-star Cynthia Bailey. According to her NeNe is not one to talk about disappearing when friends need them.

    NeNe has claimed that she tried to reach out to Cynthia, but Cynthia says other wise.

    Then came NeNe’s statements on Watch What Happens Live about her former RHOA castmates:

    “They don’t support me…the hate is real honey. Every chance I have to stick it in their face I will.”

    Cynthia says she was not surprised at NeNe’s attitude.

    “That’s who she is. It’s the same ol’ two step. Embrace the people that are with you and try to destroy the people who are not. I have seen her do it to other ladies on the show (past and present), so although it was disappointing, it was not a big surprise when she did it to me. It’s no secret that NeNe has gotten into it or fallen out (at one time or the other) with mostly all the ladies.”
