Star Jones paid a visit to The Ellen Degeneres Show on Monday (May 2) and took some jabs at her newest enemy, NeNe Leakes. When asked what she was thinking while NeNe snapped off and got in her face, she jokingly (but lowkey seriously) compared the Real Housewives of Atlanta star to a wild animal:
“I was thinking my grandmother is going to watch this. ‘Star, if you dont stand in the space that you were raised in and if you start acting ghetto, your entire family, every teacher you ever had, your pastor, his wife and they mama gon’ have a big problem with you.’ That’s exactly what I was thinking. I was thinking I need to keep calm, but when you’re confronted in the wild with an uncaged animal, you’re supposed to retreat. You’re not supposed to attack. You’re supposed to retreat.”
Star went on to share with everyone that she did a bit of background research on all the Celebrity Apprentice contestants. Well damn! Is it really that serious, Star? Lol Either way, she definitely made it clear: she played the game and she’ll continue to play the game well. Peep the video below…
Like her or hate her, Star has handled herself very well. NeNe needs to get somwhere and saddown. Everyone knows the loudest one at the table is the weakest one at the table.
Exactly!! People really think by using profanity, being obnoxious, and “ghetto” is going to prove a point…when it doesn’t. How you carry yourself speaks volumes!
Nene has some serious personal issues she needs to overcome before she gets involved with another reality show. Her whole negative aura is tired and not funny.
nene has been one of the strongest on the show, and she is not ghetto. People don’t know the real definition of ghetto..when u figure it out..then comment. I’ve been watching the show since day one. I respect nene and who she is because she is not fake. She is straight forward and will tell you to your face, as to where on the other hand Star Jones has been a manipulator doing her dirt very sneaky. IF you watch the show nene has been showing all the contestant respect and has even got emotional in certain situation to show that she has a humble heart. I think the misconception is that people if someone bashes you or insult you in a way you find offense, you are not suppose to go off, get an attitude or whatever else. People love to say..”oh, keep it classy blah blah” knowing good and well NOBODY keeps it classy especially in their home everyday lives. Everyone handles confrontation differently and I applaud her for being herself and not being the fake pretentious like many other. When white people get angry and curse do you hear anyone calling them ghetto..NO! So black people need to stop with that shit. I think certain people atagonize Nene and that why she reacts to them the way she does. I have notice her to be respectable and a loyal person to individuals. She doesn’t go off on anyone for no reason..they would have had to insult or disrespect her, then she brings the fire. I think she is s strong woman who does actually have her shit together and not to be crossed because whe will bring the fire!
Nobody really knows these woman personally. So i dont judge what i dont know. I love nene she cracks me up, if you become famous for being the way you are and you dont have to act like someone else to do it. So be it.
Even if it makes you appear classless and ignorant??? NeNe is an embarassment. It’s one thing to “be yourself” it’s another to play into a negative stereotype all for the sake of a little fame and money.
Nene is going to be just like New York, famous for 15, and then she’s done.
Acting Ghetto ! Star acts worse than ghetto. She is sneaky,conniving,two-faced,selfish and only cares about herself and her issues. I can see why she got let go from the View.Nene just says out loud what a lot of people are already thinking about Star.
NeNe was so wrong but Star remained ladylike the entire time. NeNe is going to catch herself behind bars or worst.
lol, NeNe is an emotional person and Star knows how to hold emotions in, but she IS manipulative.
She was funny in this clip, but Star has her reputation for reasons, just saying…
This is a game. NeNe Leaks or Latoya Jackson will win the competition.
You can’t hate Nene for what she does. Its a job. She is providing for her family. We all have issues. If you ain;t gonna pray for her keep ur mouth shut.
When Latoya was kicked off the show a real side of Nene was displayed but is being overlooked. However it’s about business to Mr. Trumph and Nene Leaks means business. Cmon now 2 top rated reality shows?
I can’t at this “when u are confronted in the wild with an uncaged animal”
LOL
Why does Nene have to be acting Ghetto??? ….I know plenty of Ghetto ppl who act just like Star Jones.
I wonder it Nene was white would ppl be so quick to call her ghetto and low-class….I bet most would pick different words to describe Nene’s behavior.
lol, she is telling the truth, the way Nene behaves you have 2 options; walk away or catch a case.lol Acting like a true lady Star did as she should, walk away. When you have things going right in your life you think twice about putting yourself in harms way. Star is a grown women. ACTIONS SPEAK SO MUCH LOUDER THAN WORDS.
i like star cause shes a strong woman, gotta love that but c’mon this is the third time shes on a talk show taken jabs at someone instead of doin it in the same room at the person be it her talk needs to go toward to.
but im gonna tellu this she will win if she stays humble on the show tho!…and let all the rara goin one ear n out the other.
Aunt Jemima and Sapphire coonin’ in the service of that stone racist piece of shit Donald the Douchebag. *smh* Whatever happened to race pride? Sellout bitches! Niggas ain’t shit!
Get em Star!
Team NeNe!
I’ve never liked Star so I can’t side with her or anything, she’s annoyed me since she’s been on The View. NeNe on the other hand kills me, some of the things she says are so wrong but I can’t help but laugh half the time.
I really like the show celebrity apprentice. I like all the contestants, but Star handled NeNe in more ways than one. NeNe is just realizing it and now she is mad. The fact that Star didn’t result to profanity or intimidation to do so confuses NeNe. I think Star may be too into playing the game because I haven’t seen her raise a lot for her charity, which is the point. NeNe doesn’t seem to have raised much either. Neither one of them are playing like they have charities. This show was and the cast were put together for ratings and from the women’s team, I’m sure NBC is getting them.
They’re both bad representatives. Period.
