CAMELOT FANTASIES

Why I know this chick was lying? Here's what I think happened. She wanted her full time pay back and not FOH pay. They refused to pay her that since she's basically calling it in. So she puts out an announcement that she's leaving, hoping that the stans will cry outrage. The next morning she calls it a semi hoax and pretends that she "might" go back in a reduced role, which is what she had in the first place. She thinks she's clever but she's really a dummy.

NeNe Dont Count Me Out of RHOA Just Yet

0630-nene-leakes-tmz-01NeNe Leakes isn't done with "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" ... TMZ has learned producers want her to come back in a reduced role, and she's game.

Our sources say, although NeNe made it seem she was gone for good, the show's producers are still angling to have her appear periodically during the season. 

As we reported, NeNe bailed on the show because the money wasn't right. She's already committed to doing a primetime network sitcom, and the only way she'd continue on 'RHOA' was if they delivered a wheelbarrow full of cash ... to make the crushing workload worthwhile.

But our sources say NeNe is open to a part-time role on 'RHOA,' again if the money is right and it fits with her sitcom schedule.
We're told Bravo is absolutely interested, and the negotiations will begin soon.

Stay tuned.

Ugh. I can't stand this woman!  If she still has any respect from her fans now I give up. Nene is a joke.
Agree with you. She isn't smart.

Below I just posted what I had already written.

I think Nene tried to muscle them for more money and they refused.

They gave her an offer she was too embarrassed to accept, most likely.

There is no way  that I will believe she walked away from a guaranteed so called great paying contract to just depend on a risky clothing line that isn't even established and payment for guest appearances on an app that is not guaranteed to bring in a substantial revenue for her.
And she has a mortgage.  I Don't believe it for a minute.

Think about it. Kim K still has her show with all of the successful businesses she's got going on.

I hope that Bravo does not cave to her.

I also see that none of the other girls will speak on it.

I think it is a risky game to play for Nene to put her self out there like that.
Imo, it wouldn't be worth it for Bravo to let a salary war play out on social media because they stand to lose either way.
For that reason it wouldn't really make sense to me. That's the only reason I think it may be the real deal.

Hopefully, Andy wont allow himself to be punked twice.

I don't think Nene was offered a full contract, but the same reduced one she had last year. With them getting rid of Claudia (if that's true) Nene probably thought she could re-negotiate to get her full time pay back. Bravo probably said no because if they get Kim F. or Drew Sidora, they would have to pay them a decent salary, so there was no money in the coffer to satisfy the Moose's demands.

When Bravo didn't cave to her, I think Nene did just what you said. She told a blog that she was leaving to create a furor. She thought that would make Andy reconsider, but Andy tweeted her congratulations, and a poster on TT's blog had an interesting take on that tweet. She said Andy's tweet sounded shady in that it "you are always welcome to come back to the house that you helped build."

That was one of the sticky points with Andy. He had gotten mad at Nene going around giving herself credit for "building" RHOA. Andy was furious at her, because she didn't build chit. Looked at that way, it is conceivable that Andy is still calling her bluff and saying, "take the reduced role or hit the door. Oh, and we wish you well." That chick is going to get blacklisted in Hollywood (See Monique).

Also, if Bravo hires one of the two actresses they may be willing to pay them more than Nene ever got, which would infuriate her. Some people are speculating that Kim may not want to work with Nene, and if they hire Kim, Porsha may be gone. The deck would be stacked against her, yet again. Another reason for wanting to leave.

It's also possible that she tried to wrangle a deal to keep her two minions and Bravo said no. So she made the threat.

This is good. Another poster said maybe they put her in a reduced role to see how the numbers would look, and the numbers didn't suffer significantly, showing that Nene is/was not indispensable.

About that app, I know that it's Nene , Andre, and the MUA, but today I heard that Demi Lovato was doing it too. I'll bet these people agreed to appear, along with the other Kardashians for exposure only. Nene only has a guest appearance, she's not a main factor in the app. It's misleading advertisement, because it looks like it's a joint venture, but ti's not. Again Nene tried to use this to strong arm Bravo, but I think the Moose loses.

What she's going to do is accept the reduced role and pay and she may not have any allies. I doubt she'll finish the season because she won't be getting her way.
