<p><em>Real Housewives of Atlanta </em>OG <strong>NeNe Leakes</strong> is getting real about her opinions on some of her fellow Bravolebrities, and she isn&#8217;t holding back on how she feels about <strong>Shereé Whitfield</strong>, <strong>Kenya Moore</strong>, and <strong>Cynthia Bailey</strong>.</p>
<p>From suggesting that Shereé is dull to speculating that Cynthia played a part in getting her booted, NeNe went IN!</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">NeNe Calls Herself The &#8220;Underdog&#8221; &; Says Shereé Is &#8220;Not The Most Exciting Person&#8221;</h3>
<p>NeNe&#8217;s commentary came during the first part of her sit-down on <strong>Carlos King</strong>&#8216;s <em><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_zcME9HHyw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reality with the King</a></em> podcast, and she started by going in on Shereé.</p>
<p>After reminiscing about some old drama, NeNe pushed back against Whitfield being described as the &#8220;last-standing OG,&#8221; as she declared,<strong><em> &#8220;There was nowhere else to go.&#8221;</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t about last-standing. She&#8217;s the last one they could get on the show. There was nowhere else to go. The people who were the stars of the show were literally me and Kim Zolciak.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>NeNe went on to say that while Shereé &#8220;played her part,&#8221; she doesn&#8217;t think the network &#8220;valued&#8221; her.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I think Shereé played her role or played her part in the show. I just don&#8217;t think the network or the production really valued her that much. They felt like, &#8216;We don&#8217;t really need her that much.'&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>NeNe added, <strong><em>&#8220;I mean, she&#8217;s not the most exciting person in the world.&#8221;</em></strong></p>

<p>Staying on the subject of the early days of <em>RHOA</em>, NeNe remarked that she was essentially the &#8220;underdog&#8221; of season 1, and many of her fellow OGs banked on the idea that viewers wouldn&#8217;t like NeNe. However, &#8220;It just didn&#8217;t work like that.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;First season, I was the underdog. I wasn&#8217;t sure if I would be liked. I think Shereé, along with Kim and the rest of the girls, thought, &#8216;Oh, please. They&#8217;re gonna love us, and they&#8217;re not gonna like her. And it just didn&#8217;t work like that.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">NeNe Leakes Says Kenya Moore Made <em>RHOA </em>More Focused On Storylines</h3>
<p>Shereé wasn&#8217;t the only popular <em>RHOA </em>star who was the target of Ms. NeNe Leakes&#8217; shade, as Kenya got it too!</p>
<p>NeNe stated that the show began to change &#8220;once Kenya came on&#8221; in season 5, as it &#8220;started to be, &#8216;Let&#8217;s create our storyline.'&#8221;</p>
<p>To emphasize this point about Kenya&#8217;s impact, NeNe declared,<strong><em> &#8220;People started to create storylines and pretend to have boyfriends.&#8221;</em></strong></p>
<p><amp-twitter data-tweetid="1683847970448621569" layout="responsive" width="600" height="480"></amp-twitter></p>
<p>Nonetheless, after Carlos later declares that Kenya and <strong>Porsha Williams</strong> &#8220;saved the show&#8221; after joining in season 5, NeNe confirms, &#8220;They were great additions.&#8221;</p>
<p>However, she was sure to note that she never saw Kenya as the &#8220;star&#8221; of <em>RHOA</em>.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Kenya is great on the show, and she was a great addition to the show when she came on. And I think the show needs Kenya, by the way. But I never saw her as <i data-stringify-type="italic">the </i>star of <i data-stringify-type="italic">Real Housewives of Atlanta</i>. Ever.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">NeNe Accuses Cynthia Of Trying To Stop Her Bravo Bag</h3>
<p>Finally, NeNe also honed in on Ms. Cynthia Bailey, noting that she initially &#8220;didn&#8217;t think that [Cynthia] was &#8216;Housewife material.'&#8221;</p>
<p>While she commented similarly about <strong>Phaedra Parks</strong>, she didn&#8217;t go <em>in </em>like she did with Cynthia.</p>
<p>Although NeNe Leakes declared she misses their &#8220;sister[ly]&#8221; friendship, she doubts they&#8217;ll ever reconcile.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I just know some of the things that she has done behind the scenes that I could just never, ever, ever respect.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><amp-instagram data-shortcode="Cu-jTetrF2s" layout="responsive" width="600" height="600" data-captioned></amp-instagram></p>
<p>After being prompted to give further detail, NeNe accused Cynthia of attempting to interfere with her Bravo bag.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;She was definitely trying to stop [my bag] from Bravo. I know a lot of things she did. &#8230; She was in an alliance with Housewives and behind the scenes with producers and the network. I think she had a hand in trying to get [me fired].&#8221;</p></blockquote>
