During the interview, Witherspoon asks Moore the question: “You and Nene are both actresses can you see yourself possibly collaborating?”
Moore, who is an accomplished actress and film producer (as well as a Miss UltraSheen Cosmetics?Miss USA title holder), seems to have a very soft spot in her heart for Leakes. She responds with her desire to one day work the the superstar housewife turned “actress”, stating
It’s funny that you would ask that. I wrote a film a while ago and I actually spoke to NeNe about possibly playing a role in that film, so I really ?so hope to work with her.
I think she’s talented, I think she’s unique. She has a unique personality. I believe we would collaborate really well together.
[Sidebar: Remember when Shaq freestyle dissed Kobe? (CLICK HERE?to refresh your memory) ?Well, the first quote that came to mind when I saw Kenya’s eyes light up about Nene was…
“Yo Keyna… tell me how Nene’s “A”zz tastes!” ?*in Shaquille O’Neal’s Voice” 😯
Coincidentally many StraightFromTheA.com commenters have expressed concerns that Miss Cascade Beauty Supply?Miss USA is playing herself by feeding into the Nene “mean girl” stereotype.
Loyal reader Vay, eloquently gave Miss Soul Train Miss USA a few words of wisdom in a recent comment, stating:
You are trying to walk in NeNe?s footsteps when in actuality you should be miles ahead of NeNe ?Ms. USA?who owns her own production company! NeNe should be coming to YOU for pointers.
The generation that you are trying to appeal to don?t know you, hell I was a kid when you won your title!!! I remember how proud I was to see a “black barbie doll” win. You are allowing Bravo to pimp you for ratings mean while your fan base has NOT grown.
I must admit Vay made a very interesting point. How is it possible that the “legendary”?Miss America Miss USA Kenya Moore looks up to Nene Leakes?
For the record, I’m in no way discrediting the obvious growth of Moore’s “mean girl” predecessor, but Moore was Miss Greenbriar Car Wash MISS USA for crying out loud!
So now reality show stars are the new “SUPERstars”? I guess we should all strive to make a fool of ourselves on television. It’s becoming the America way.
What do you think about Miss DermaBlend Miss USA Kenya Moore’s fascination with Nene Leakes?
