Legend has it that Greg Leakes “discovered” Leakes in an Atlanta strip club and began dating her.
NeNe Leaks was the breakout star of the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” from the franchise’s inception. Her brutal honesty, unedited tongue and sassiness is credited with making the Atlanta franchise the highest rated of all the “Real Housewives” incarnations. She even got shout-outs from the likes of Anderson Cooper on the “Tonight Show With Jay Leno.” Her salary is $750,000 per season, according to celebritynetworth.com, making her the highest paid “Housewife” of all of the “Real Housewives” on Bravo.
