The “glamorous granny” (as she likes to be called) held an early birthday dinner on December 12, 2012, with a small gathering of friends in California.
Nene and a few friends, which included comedian Mike Epps and ‘Baskeball Wife” Laura Govan, wined and dined at the Crustacean restaurant in Beverly Hills, where she celebrated yet another successful year on this earth.
And in case you were wondering, Leakes saved her acutual birthdate to spend the day with her boo, Gregg.

stop selling @NeNeLeakes half bundles please – just stop #HairSheGoes
girl shut up and stop hating why must yaw always have something negative to say gosh didnt your mamma teach you if you cant say nothing nice dont say it at all??
That’s so sweet. I’m really digging’ NeNe this season; she’s truly back to her old self!
I should have known she was a Sagittarius, lol! Me too!
I know it ain’t cheap but, being that Nene is "very rich" and all, I need her to keep the stylist (or a small flat iron and moisturizing lotion) around at all times. In her interviews on RHOA she is pressed to death, but after about 3 full-mouth laughs her edges raise up like flood waters. Even Funky Dineva can’t say her hair is laid like Nene. She would have to say her hair waves like Nene Leakes.
Come on Nene, moisture used at the onset will let those tracks fall back into place as easily as they get distracted.
Love Jackie
You’re the kind of chick that’ll be broke and anti prosperous for the rest of your life. God bless you sister. (PS I don’t expect you to "get" this comment)
So proud of this woman. Sheree could have done alot with the RH platform. Anyways, congratulations to Nene.
I’m very proud of her, too! Nene said in the last reunion, "Sheree, you’re on the wrong team". Once again Nene has proven to be a good judge of character. And to THINK it was Nene who suggested Sheree and Kim audition for the show. Look at the two of them now. Smh.
I like that she made herself something from nothing. Keep up the good work and keep stretching those 15 minutes. Many people forget that Elisabeth Hasselbeck started out on Survivor and now is a staple on the View.
HAPPY FABULOUS 45TH BIRTHDAY MISS LENETHIA!! I LOVE YOU!!!
I love Nene and love her and Greg together even more!
I love these two together.
Those cakes are Gorgeous!!!
I can not stand to see Greg Leakes!He looks like her grandfather.He’s following NeNe around like an old crusty mutt!
Good to see that NeNe finally got her "HAPPY BACK!" I missed the old FUNNY NeNe but now that the MONKEY WITH A WIG ON & Shereè got CHECKED by receiving her LAST CHECK from Bravo, NeNe is bringin the funny & I’m diggin her INFAMOUS 1 liners EACH & EVERY EPISODE! U BETTA WERRRK B!TCH!!

Happy Birthday NeNe!! You were always my favorite from the very beginning. So proud of you!
I love Nene she is doing the dam thing. I especially like how Michelle post the good and the bad on Nene. Although we all know most want to read the bad the most . Glad she is happy with Greg!!!
WERKKK Linnethia!That’s all I want to scream every time I see her-I’m still enjoying her after all these years. Like fine wine, she’s gotten better with time. This is the Nene that I like-all about HER happy and not focusing on the negativity of others.I hope she enjoyed her special day, and I’m glad her and Gregg are working things out.
I wonder if NeNe hires people to take Kodak moments of her…
They did a good job on both cakes.
Marlo is a class act. The cake was lovely. Bring her back please.
I was thinking the very same thing. Marlo could get rid of Kenya in one episode.
Her weave is busted. Too blonde. She looks like one of those aborigines with a jacked up nose job. I’m just saying
