Reality TV star NeNe Leakes has officially launched her new talk show, fittingly titled, “The NeNe Leakes Show.” The weekly YouTube series promises to deliver her signature unfiltered opinions on entertainment, relationships, and whatever else crosses her mind. Wearing a bold leopard print cardigan with feather details, NeNe announced the show on March 12 with a teaser giving fans a taste of what’s to come.
“Oh my God, OK! So many of you guys have been saying to me for so long, ‘NeNe, do your own show,'” the former Real Housewives of Atlanta star shared in her announcement. “We want to hear what you gotta say, so here I am, ready to give you all that I got. I love you guys, and I love you guys for loving me right back.”
Celebrity Guests and Hot Topics Set to Shake Up the Premiere
The first episode drops March 13 and features TV producer Carlos King and media personality Michelle “ATLien” Brown. Fans can expect some juicy conversations as the teaser hints at several piping-hot topics coming up.
During the preview, NeNe teases discussions about her love life. Since losing her beloved husband Gregg Leakes in 2021, fans have been curious about her romantic situation. Yet NeNe keeps it demure, joking that she doesn’t like giving away her “Hello Kitty” and only needs one man.
The January 2024 HelloBeautiful cover star also name-drops Porsha Williams’ husband Simon Guobadia and Wendy Williams in the teaser. Even in this brief clip, NeNe manages to stir up enough tea to keep viewers intrigued.
From Reality Star to Talk Show Host: NeNe’s Media Evolution
This isn’t the first time NeNe has stepped into the talk show arena. Longtime fans may remember her 2014 online series “Fab Gab,” which was hosted on her website and YouTube.
Her debut episode featured an impressive lineup, including a deep dive into Whoopi Goldberg’s wardrobe and legendary shoe collection. The show also welcomed conversations with celebrities like Rosie O’Donnell and Michael Strahan.
Unfortunately, “Fab Gab” was short-lived. However, this time around, NeNe seems ready to commit fully to her hosting duties. With her trademark wit and shade intact, “The NeNe Leakes Show” might be the comeback talk show fans have been waiting for.
