When asked if she would return to RHOA for a large amount of coins, NeNe had this to say...
“Honey, money ain't everything, OK? I was the only original there, and it was the end of my contract,” Leakes told Access Hollywood. “I was offered Season 8, to come back, and it was my decision. I just wanted to do other things. Also, I felt like being on the show all of this time, I felt like I was being attacked a lot. I felt like it was very negative at times. And it was just time for me to sort of step back and just try other things.”
“It did not come down to money. They offered me nice money, and I made nice money being on the show. So it was not about money. Honestly, I'm not that girl. I've turned down lots of good money many of times," she continued. "It's about happiness for me.”
And don't expect NeNe's reign over the franchise to be replicated anytime soon (or ever), at least according to NeNe.
“I am irreplaceable. They will have to bring in a truckload of women and men to replace me. I'm irreplaceable honey. They will never find anybody that can do what NeNe does,” the reality queen proclaimed.
When asked about the rumored housewife, Transgender model Amiyah Scott joining the Bravo reality series, Leakes shot down rumors about her holding a peach.
“All lies! It’s just a way to get everybody to tune in…Guarantee you that. None of those people that you’ve been hearing about will be housewives.”
She also revealed that it's possible she might pull a Bethenny Frankel and make a return to the Bravo series in the near future. “I may go back some day,” added NeNe.
NeNe Leakes is done with "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," but is down to join "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills."
According to NeNe, the Beverly Hills ladies could use a little diversity.
“I would love to join the Beverly Hills 'Housewives. I'd be the only brown girl there,” said NeNe
“[I'd love] to fight those girls a little bit. They need a brown girl, I promise. I'd love to do it,” she said with a smile.
