Friendship breakups come a dime a dozen when it comes to the world of reality TV, but few are more memorable than the split between NeNe Leakes and her former BFF, Marlo Hampton. Although the two have been mum about their feud for the past few weeks, the beef between them got hot again this week when Hampton responded to a diss from Leakes and said she needs a new nose job.
The drama all began last Sunday when Leakes appeared on “Watch What Happens Live” and called Hampton “Man-H–.”
Hampton was, understandably, offended by the diss and in a new interview with RadarOnline, she fired back at Leakes and called her immature.
“How elementary is that; name-calling?” Hampton vented. “She’s a grown, happily married woman. I’m completely appalled by her childish actions. Man-H–? Really? That’s low.”
However, Hampton had no problem sinking to Leakes’ level as she slammed the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star’s nose.
“If she’s going to be dirty about my looks, well, let’s talk about that nose job. Her nose job needs a nose job!” said Hampton.
“She is still under construction,” Hampton continued. “That nose job still is not right. I’m not being mean. I’m just being honest,” she added.
Although the two ladies are still hurling verbal bombs at each other, Hampton explained that there’s still hope that she and Leakes may become friends again one day.
“It’s definitely possible,” Hampton admitted. “I just hope that NeNe finds God. I believe her fans deserve the truth and feel she needs to revisit the commandment, ‘Thou shall not lie.’ Oh, and I wish her nothing but the best in Hollywood.”
And if fans are worried that Hampton won’t be back on “RHOA” now that she and Leakes are enemies, she says, “Don’t worry. I’m not going anywhere!”
Well, considering how badly these two women are talking about each other in public, we don’t see how they could ever trust each other enough to be friends again. But then again, what reality TV friendship is actually based on things like trust, kindness and healthy communication?
