NeNe Blasts La Toya on Latest ‘Celebrity Apprentice’

Since the start of the latest season of “Celebrity Apprentice,” reality star NeNe Leakes has had some dramatic verbal battles with castmates Star Jones and the recently eliminated Dionne Warwick. On the April 10 episode, Leakes unleashed harsh criticism on La Toya, claiming she’s only survived because of her Jackson family status.


During last night’s episode, Jackson took the lead as project manager, directing team A.S.A.P. as they created a beach-themed display environment for Australian Gold, a company that produces sunscreen and body cream.


Despite leading her team to victory, teammates Leakes, Jones and Marlee Matlin criticized Jackson’s vision and direction during the boardroom judgment. However, Jackson shrugged off the criticism, claiming Leakes has always criticized her for being “weak.”

Once the ladies left the boardroom, the claws came out as Leakes confronted Jackson about her comments.


“I don’t appreciate you using my name in a negative way. You tried to act as if I said I don’t like you. And I have never said that. This has nothingNeNe Blasts La Toya on Latest ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ to do with personal, this is strictly business,” said Leakes before yelling, “If you don’t like it, go in the bathroom and hide. Don’t try me … ever!”

Never one to shy away from a confrontation, Leakes saved her most venomous attack for Jackson’s lightened skin tone and claim that she’s gotten by because of her name.

“Don’t you try and act like you’re the reason we won. I worked my a– off while you sat there and looked like Casper the Ghost! Let’s be clear Casper, let’s be clear! Disappear ghost,” yelled Leakes. “The only reason you’ve gotten this far is because of your last name and you faked it for 50 years. You are very old and you need to play your age and not 12. You are an old lady.”

Jackson refused to argue with Leakes, choosing to save her commentary for her personal interview.

“NeNe is nothing but a big bully. She’s got a big mouth and has height. She uses that to her advantage,” said Jackson.
