Kandi Burruss is sharing her thoughts about NeNe Leakes not being featured on many episodes from the current season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. The Grammy awards winner addresses Leakes' absence on the latest episode of her RHOA review via her YouTube channel.
“What I will say- and I hate to keep bringing this up – but I have to. Because I know some of you are gonna notice that NeNe was not in another episode…What is going on? Bravo, Truly Original- what is going on?” she said, according to theJasmineBRAND. “Why is the OG not on an episode again?…I don’t know. I mean, clearly we don’t know each other’s business when it comes to contracts.”
“I don’t know what she signed for. I don’t know how many episodes she’s supposed to be in. I don’t know how much they payin’ her- I don’t know any of that. So maybe this is something they had already understood going into this season,” she shared.
All I can tell you is we didn’t understand…I don’t know if any of the other girls knew that NeNe wasn’t gon’ be on a lot of episodes this year. Interesting…Well, she’s definitely in next week’s episode.”
Even Real Housewives of Potomac star Monique Samuels thinks it’s “beyond ridiculous” what's happening to Leakes after AOL Entertainment managing editor Gibson Johns brought up the topic via Twitter.
“Serious question: Has there ever been a full-time Housewife who has been featured *less* during a season than NeNe has been on this season of #RHOA? It’s becoming absurd how many full episodes she’s missing from entirely.”
To which Samuels replied, “It’s getting beyond ridiculous.”
Kenya Moore recently revealed that she believes that Leakes is being phased out from the series as she thinks it's time for NeNe to leave the show. “I think maybe it's just time for her to take a step back from the show and just get herself together,” she told TooFab.
