[Behind the Scenes of GLEE With NeNe Leakes ~ PHOTOS+ VIDEO]
Well her bravado paid off in a BIG WAY.
Through her connection to the popular television show, NeNe has landed yet another acting role!
Details…
NeNe has landed another recurring role on NBC’s “The New Normal.”
According to the AJC:
She’s had a well-received recurring role this season as a tough-talking swim coach on Ryan Murphy’s “Glee.” Now Murphy has tapped her again for another recurring role on his NBC comedic pilot “The New Normal” about a blended family of a gay couple and their surrogate, according to Deadline.com.
She plays a character named Rocky, though the article provides no details of what that entails.
Hopefully with all those new Hollywood connects, NeNe will be gracious enough to hook her former friend Sheree Whitfield up with a J.O.B. being as though she may be getting Lisa Wu-d during Season 5.
[Sidebar: You may recall that Lisa Wu (aka Sharon Millette) started off taping the 3rd season season but about midway through she faded to black and disappeared without a trace. But I digress...]
There are many who have been asking if NeNe will return to RHOA next season, and while nothing is concrete as of yet, my sources have all confirmed that she’s NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
So we can still expect to see Leakes making her paper as a paid Atlanta “housewife,” while still cashing all those “Trump Checks” from her side gigs.
You better werrrrk it Leakes! Next stop? A Tyler Perry flick…
Can you imagine NeNe Leakes as an A-List Hollywood Actress?

LUVS IT! GO NENE CAUSE YT IS RIGHT!
im so proud of you ne ne leakes!!! i love you girl, keep up the good work….did you get a divorce yet? dont keep stringing gregg along, if you going to be with him then be with him if not get a divorce and live right so no one can say keep your legs closed while you are still married! love you girl i support you 100%!
Well, I truly have to give credit where it’s due. I will give her props. She’s using her platform well, so I ain’t mad at her for ‘getting that paper!” In the words of Phaedra, “NeNe’s a hustler.”
I <3 you NeNe!
Out of her “comfort zone” she was still being a loud, obnoxious person.
Nope! No A-List in her future.
Go ahead NeNe! I’ve been a NeNe fan since the very beginning! Let the haters hate! #More haters, more success
I can’t stomach this lady but i’m not a hater.. Get ya money!
I love u Nene!!!!! People r hating and just jealous! Go head girl! Make them housewives mad!!!!! Lol!!!
I was wondering if she would leave the show. Congrats to NeNe!
TRUE @ Ebony! I feel where you are coming from with your stance. Now that is the only problem I am having with NeNe. She’s getting roles that are close to her own ‘real’ personality. (i.e. loud, ghetto fab) and things of that nature. However, really can’t hate on her for how “she’s getting it.” #Imjustsaying
Sorry nene God bless u.
Good for her
Hell to the nah
I respect that fact that Nene is making money BUT that does not excuse her behavior. It isn’t hating if you are telling the truth. I’ve watched RHOA from season one and the "growth" Nene is so proud of has not occured. If she is so over the "smalls" she will not waste time talking about them so much and will simply smile, wish them well, and keep it moving. But no, she spends most of her time on twitter retweeting comments hateful towards her other cast members and talking about them. Grow up.
Its funny how you talk about her talking about her castmates but muchnduring this season and on twitter much of the trash talking came from the smalls Kim and Sheree.
@ Ashley, but it’s okay for the smalls to constantly bash Nene right?! Exactly, I wish her the best.
Proud of her. I can definitely see her in a Tyler Perry. She can be good in a John Singleton film too
She has nothing to lose she can sacrifice it all.
Go…NeNe…..#KeepWinning….:)
LOVE NENE!!I’d love to see her in a Tyler Perry movie too!! Or ANY movie for that matter.
i can see her on a TP film very soon
Go ahead Mrs.Nene Leaks live your dreams. Be Blessed and ignore the nonsense. Do You!!!!
I’ll bet Sheree is dying! I’m happy for NeNe!
LOVE HER!!!! KEEPIN’ IT REEAALL WITH NENE!!! LOL SHE HAS THE POTENTIAL (AND HUSTLE) TO GO FAR!!! AND YOU DOING RIGHT BY BRYSON TOUGH LOVE IS THE BEST LOVE WHEN IT IS DESPERATELY NEEDED!!!
Congrats Nene wish you all the best may God contiune to bless you.its funny how people bash Nene but the smalls are loud and messy too,so birds of the same feather in rhoa.smh
@Finemadam
NO, they are all petty and a bad representaiton of Black females.
If Nene is as over the women as she claims she would let them stew in their hate without saying an unkind word. But now, she stoops to their level and then cries foul.
I hope Nene really "acts" on this new show. When she was on Glee she was just being herself with a stage name.
1 thing for sure she has great publicist and managers. Go ahead girl shake it fast!!!!! I love it!
I’m happy for her. She set a goal to be a star, worked her plan and made it happen. Bravo!
A lot of people were hating on NENE and she has gotten many roles, and other thing of television. Looks like she is getting paid unlike Sheree. You go girl!!
