NeNe Leakes has a bone to pick with Andy Cohen after a recent comment he made on his late night talk show. During Sunday’s episode, which included NeNe’s costar, Eva Marcille and singer Ashanti as guests, Andy had this to say about NeNe: “By the way, one NeNe’s confessional looks this year is the same dress she wore to our big door bell show in LA where the strap broke. So, I guess she fixed her strap, which we love. You know what, we just love our eagle-eyed researchers here,” he concluded while the audience roared with laughter.
“Why, was that shady?”, he asked as Eva covered her mouth to contain her bursting laugh. “I didn’t mean for that to be shady,” Andy said, to which Eva replied, “Listen, you’re just like me… But sometimes it comes out shady.”
It didn’t take long (less than 24 hours to be exact) for NeNe to catch wind of Andy’s sly comment. NeNe re-shared a clip of the moment on Monday afternoon, with a long message explaining why she did not find the “pointless” moment amusing. “Can somebody please tell me what was the point of this? Like I don’t get it,” NeNe began. “That was 2 years ago I wore this dress ONCE, so I can’t sit in a confessional with it on @bravoandy,” she directly asked Andy, who she tagged in her message.

“How many times have you recycled your suits and ties?”, NeNe continued, adding the hashtags, “pointless” and “messy.” She went on to ask the host, “Why you care?” She then expressed how shocked she was to learn about Andy’s comment. — Something she’d expect from her RHOA costars, but not him.
“It’s enough that we #RHOA ladies come for each other and now we have to worry about executives coming for us! No I mean coming for me! It’s not cool,” NeNe wrote. “Wasn’t you interviewing those girls? What you mad about? Y’all stay coming for me but soon as I say something or do something I’m wrong. I DON’T APPRECIATE THIS AT ALL”, she concluded in all capital letters.
It’s certainly been a rocky season for NeNe, who’s been feuding with her RHOA costars since the season 11 finale, when she was upset with Cynthia Bailey for inviting Kenya Moore to her [Cynthia’s] event. NeNe also threw shade at the hit Bravo franchise for not including her in the current season 12 premiere in November.
The OG of the ATL recently told HollywoodLife that her future with the show is uncertain. “I don’t know…I really don’t know that,” she told us during an exclusive interview when asked if she will be back after season 13. “I never really know what I’m doing until the season is over and we talk about it,” NeNe said, noting that she believes there’s things going on that are completely “unfair.”
