NeNe Leakes on “The View”
NeNe Leakes recently took her disdain for her fellow housewives to ABC’s “The View.” The reality star and self proclaimed “very rich” starlet sat down with Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg, Jenny McCarthy and Sherri Shepherd to dish on the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” and Kenya Moore in particular.
According to Leakes, she was offended when Moore held an event for the charity “Saving Our Daughters” in Leakes’ honor without properly inviting her.
“I heard through the girls that there was going to be a charity event in my honor,” said Leakes. “I happen to be a big supporter of Saving Our Daughters, women of domestic abuse and all those things. I heard about it the night before from Kenya. I felt like if you’re gonna honor someone, you should at least call them up and say, ‘hey, I would like to honor you, are you available on this date?
“Yes, I was angry with Kenya. She sent an Evite. How do you send an Evite to someone you’re honoring? This is a charity event. She and I have differences. I felt like she could’ve called me and said, ‘Hey, let’s put our differences aside for a night of charity,'” she added.
Additionally, Leakes dissed the entire RHOA cast. When Sherri Shepherd asked if she was actually friends with any of her cast-mates, she flatly responded, “no.”
She then went on to blast Marlo Hampton and made a point to note that she’s not an official real housewife and was brought onto the program via Phaedra Parks.
“I didn’t invite her on to the show; she came on with Phaedra,” said Leakes. “She and I got to know each other and we became friends. So I think people just know her from being with me.”
Hampton actually caught wind of Leakes’ comments and joked about it via Twitter.
