Celebrity Apprentice’s NeNe Leakes stopped by The Ellen Degeneres Show early Wednesday afternoon. The former Real Housewives of Atlanta personality kept it real when asked her thoughts about her castmate, Star Jones. Leakes was pretty candid and funny in her responses:
“Well I just think that Star is manipulative. I mean she is bossy, she’s manipulative…conniving. And I’m not even being funny. I think that is real. I honestly think that is who she is. She is controlling. Do I think that she knows that? Yeah. When she looks in the mirror, she better know. She is that way. She’s not the easiest person to get to know. She is…a disaster. That’s all.”
Word on the street is that NeNe is seeing Star Jones’ ex-huband Al Reynolds (insert side eye here). Nonetheless, you can watch the drama escalade between NeNe Leakes and Star Jones in the next episode of Celebrity Apprentice on Sunday nights at 9|8pm CST on NBC.

Nene is plain stupid! She’s intimated by Star! Star has a way with words without screaming and yelling like Nene! Nene is not intelligent enough to effectively articulate thoroughly like Star. So the fact that Star can get her together without acting a fool is priceless!
true!!
I agree. I do not support one black woman putting another black woman down, especially on television. That is not classy.
Exactly! And why go on Ellen and down another sister?? I just dont get it! Whatever issues you have with this woman resolve them! And stop airing everything out! We don’t need to see anymore women of color acting a plum fool on national television!
I agree. NeNe is displaying her inability to handle her own amongst an intelligent and articulate woman, such as Star Jones. It is a pattern. She showcased her insecurities when she was around Phadera on RHOA (a confident and articulate woman) and now Star (a confident and articulate woman.)
I loved NeNe on RHOA. But her comments towards Star on her Apprentice promo tour, has made me feel sorry for her and the image she is presenting.

I am completely with you on this one. I am so over Nene, she has become a media monster. Success is not for everyone and she proves that everytime I see her on tv. Nene, Star is not Sheree’, Kim, Phaedra, and Kandi. Star will actually whip some real knowledge on your butt!
Completely agree, NeNe seems to have a porblem with anyone that has a job! Look how she treated Phaedra Parks! Like I cannot stand this woman, she just makes black women look bad!!!
Agree, I hate another black woman downgrading another black woman period, especially publicly for the world to see. It just incites whites to do the same, like Lisa Rinna had the nerve to send annoying emails to Star after she got fired off the show. Funny that she did not send them to Dionne too. Glad Star let her keep sending them and just printed them off and handed them to her attorney. Nene, quit the loud, black, bully woman tour you’re on.
Noooo NENE that was wrong you could have been more adult and mature about STAR..soundling like a dang on HS snitch. She could have answered that ? better and considerately. She fell right in the media’s trap with that answer…and Ms. Ford..GIRL BYE….ive seen u spread eagle and a** cheeks for magazine spreads and covers…why complain what happens on video sets?? when ya doin ish like that on the side….if ya wanna be classy and elegant stay away from things, people and places that doesnt care or respect such qaulities in a woman. plan & simple…these lil video chicks be havin some nerve to complain when dem durr checks stop coming in they ready to squeal all.
Nene I hope Trump is paying you to go on these shows because you are making him soo much money. Having everyone wanting to tune in to see the black women drama smh. Star Jones is too smart for that and everything NeNe describes Star as is what people describe NeNE as lol
It just goes to show you that now-a-days, anybody can appear on A List talk shows like Ellen! It’s funny how Nene calls Star all of those things when she is the exact same way! Nene is nothing but a ghetto, ignorant, mean, bully, –tch! I can’t stand females like her she things that because she’s big, she’s bad.
As for Melissa Whored… who cares about her? I hate how these videos HOS try to act like they have some type of class and morals when they don’t! All of them are nasty, low class, skanky, and hoish. What real woman would shake her –ss on camera for money and appear naked in mens magazines to cater to men?
MELISSA WHORE?! WOW REALLY? YOU SOUND REAL SALTY. NOT ALL VIDEO MODELS ARE HOES… SOME YES BUT NOT ALL. THATS LIKE SAYING ALL WOMEN ARE HOES WHO HAVE NO MORALS. SHEESH! DID U EVEN LISTEN TO A WORD SHE WAS SAYING. DID SHE COME OFF AS A HOE OR A DUMB VIDEO CHICK TO YOU?…. VIDEOS ARE JUST LIKE A ACTING GIGS. THE ONES WHO TAKE IT SERIOUS GET THE BEST ROLES AN THE BIGGEST CHECKS. LIKE SHE SAID THERE ARE SOME CHICKS THAT GO IN LOOKING TO FUCK THE ARTIST OR WHOM EVER TO GET A HEAD BUT END UP WITH NOTHING AND NO CAREER. THEN YOU HAVE THOSE OF US WHO LOOK AT IT AS A STEPPING STONE AND NETWORKING OPS. DOING MAGAZINES IS GREA EXPOSURE AND ITS CALLED MODELING! IM JUST SMDH AND LMMFAO AT YOUR WHOLE COMMENT. SUCH HATE AND BITTERNESS COMING OF THE SCREEN. SHEESH SWEETIE. YOU GOTTA LET THE HATE GO! TRUE YOU HAVE VIDEO HOES BUT YOU ALSO HAVE A LOT OF VIDEO MODELS. WHO ARE SITTING ON FAT BANK ROLLS. THE HOES MIGHT GET $500 FOR A 5 DAY SHOOT AND A WET ASS THAT NIGHT. THE MODELS WILL GET A $15,000 CHECK TO CASH AND A ROLE IN THE DIRECTORS OR PRODUCERS UP COMING PROJECTS WHICH WILL BRING IN ANOTHER $15-25K CHECK! SO SHUT UP AND STOP HATIN! DAMN
Melissa is that you? lol…. dont get mad sweetie, you of all people should know this just comes with the territory. You can be the classiest thing walking, but actions speak louder than words. Therefore half naked women in videos, magazines, etc will ALWAYS have the stereotypes they receive. Plus no one is that gullible to believe that the majority of these women are trully networking. Its all for attention & exposure. How many women (besides Melissa & LisaRaye) have truly made it in hollywood by starting in videos & magazines?? *crickets*…… exactly! save the drama. It is what it is.
We All Have Character Flaws.
YEAP but nene needs a tv show she really is funny!
Did you know melyssa ford drives a ford escort?
Actually she drives a lexus and owns 4 houses… do your research homie. Dont believe everyline in the rap songs homie…LLS
She don’t own no 4 dam houses!..lol!
Wow NiNi are you f***ing Melyssa Ford or something.
And the only video I remember her in is Ushers lol.Maybe she should of opened up them legs it got Amber fame a million dollars a radio show and a tv show lol
This interview with Melyssa Ford is nothing but pure BULLSHIT. Video Model. Isn’t that disrespectful to models like Naomi Campbell and the Tyra Banks of the world??? I mean seriously exactly what modelling are they doing?
body modeling!!!! Nude modeling!!! Don’t You Wanna F*** Me Modeling!!! HOld UP- NOT ENOUGH CHAMPAGNE ON POURING ON MY TITS Modeling….Dick Grinding Modeling…I MIght Be Almost Naked But Im Rich (according to my lawyer at concreteloop) and You Cant F*** ME Modeling..!!! ok i’m done. lol
@ JANUARYJONES IM DIED, YES I SAID IT, IM DIED ROTFL!!!!! Hahahhahhaha
Tammy… video models (yeah right) are modelling ASS!!! Rightfully they should be called video chicks or chickas OR ASS MODELS, because NO clothing line,shoe designer,fashion house,etc. are checking for them or endorsing them.
Hmmm….i think its ridiculous to see NeNe on Ellen….so i didnt even watch…i’m all for getting your grind on, but going on a talk show downing another black woman, who for the record has done more, seen more and accomplished more than you and all the other “housewives” put together just seems laughable….NeNe…get some credibility and until you are no longer fist fighting, arguing, loud, obnoxious and ghetto, i dont think you are qualified to speak on anyone’s attitude/personality….period.
Also.
i think NiNi (the commenter) might really be Melyssa Ford….if not that, then she’s her mom, her twin or her bed buddy…..and I’m smdh and lmmao at her sensitivity towards Ms.Ford’s career.
I see Melissa Ford is here reading the comments. HEY MELISSA, WE SEE YOU GAL!!!!
Wasnt Al supposed to be gay?
@NINI LOVE COMMENTING HERE IS MELYSSA FORD ROTFL!!! I REMEMBER WHEN KERI HILSON WAS DEFENDING HERSELF WRITING HERE WHEN SHE FLIPPED THE BIRD TO BEYONCE FANS HAHAHHAHA THEY BOTH HAVE THE SAME WORDS ‘IM GETIING PAID’ HAHAHAH
Nene….WHAT? Why is she even going there? And to say she was “laid back”, I hope that was a joke. Its CRAZY that she is so quick to point out someone elses flaws ans such, but always deems herself as the classy one. Honey please! And to hear her attempting to talk ever so proper, she sounded like Madea “hellur….kevined come here-er…” UGH! I cant!
Melissa I cant knock a hustle, but don’t spread your booty butt cheeks on mags and videos then wanna holler innocence. It doesnt work. She wont be taken seriously in anything professional. She will always be consider the video vixen.
I like Nene I think she is hilarious…she just stating her opinion of the lady. Some people are really bitches..and yeah Star is intelligent and so forth but maybe she did have a perception of Nene. I applaud Nene for keeping it real, what was she supposed to say they get along?? If they don’t get along, they don’t get along!!!!
Happy for Melyssa Ford…..she’s worked hard to be in the position that she’s in.
Melyssa Ford claims she is an ACTRESS!!! She has NEVER had a speaking role though in those music videos..bwhahahahah…She has to tell herself that she is an ACTRESS because she knows she really truly is a VIDEO VIXEN whore who slept with just as many rappers,athletes as SUPERHEAD…she is trying to make being a VIDEO VIXEN into a noble profession…PIECE OF ADVICE: Melyssa sit down some where and have a kid by one of those delusional aging rappers/athete you used to date…then your story will get more interested…now you just look STUPID..ACTRESS!! BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Actually she was in a low budget movie ….I forgot the name but look it up it was on BET! Everybody thats up here talking shit about her is funny to me, MONEY IS POWER. Just because she shakes her ass doesnt mean she’s a hoe its about the money….u can be that broke bitch who always say that she has “values” or u can be that smart bitch on a paper chase thats why all of yall are broke at home while she’s making money
Nene Makes me sick now. She acts like she is such a judge of character when she needs to judge her own character. She thinks because she is loud and obnoxious, she is right, no you just loud! I would much rather be a friend to Star than to Nene. She cant call anyone bossy. Star is a boss, in a good way, she was an attorney, paid for debating, okay. I hate that Nene is giving some of those women of the View some vindication. I am glad Star has friends that have come through for her charity. I hope she wins the Apprentice in the end.
I but love NENE But she is campaigning too hard against Star. Nene has potential as a more than just a reality tv star but she needs to learn that you do not always have to try an keep it real all of the time! She is funny and sexy and has an opinion. However her candid attitude can come back an bite her in the AS##^6. The media loves to see drama with sistas but after the media drama What else will NENE have- She needs to stand out like she can without the drama!She is sexy as hell too!
christine, wha do u mean “former Real Housewives of Atlanta personality?”
