The Real Housewives of Atlanta's NeNe Leakes

“Catwalks and Cat Fights”

 

Oh wow! Where do I even begin with the Season Finale of The Real Housewives of Atlanta?  I am glad I didn’t have that glass of wine I was thinking about earlier! You blink and you miss dirt in this episode!!


It all begins with Dwight coordinating the She by Sheree fashion show. Sheree, as the designer, seems to only be interested in the clothes and so she has Dwight do ALL of the production. He basically takes over control of the show. When the clothes are being fitted, Dwight has a problem with a white shirt, when he tells Sheree “We are selling for the press! This is not exciting.” So, Dwight literally produces the entire show including the run-through’s, the pulling of the outfits and accessories, the hair and makeup, the organizing of the models, the seating of the guests. Could this be the editing or was Sheree an absentee designer?

 

Lisa and Ed need to “restructure” things now that he has retired from football. And by restructure they mean “downsize.” Ed proposes that they move to one of their investment properties, with 9 acres of land. Lisa agrees. According to her, she wants to be wealthy and stay wealthy. Later, they check out the house. Lisa has a vision of iron fencing, a circular driveway, a pool and “more cement” for this city girl! But, obviously, when they say “downsize” it still means moving into another multi-million dollar home.

 

NeNe sits down with Gregg and tells him that on her trip to Athens, she met her alleged biological father, Alan. Gregg is upset; he refuses to support her in this, and thinks that she will end up heart broken. Gregg has heard he is a “real nut”. NeNe wants Gregg’s support, and Gregg refuses. NeNe starts crying. She doesn’t think he understands how it feels to not know who your father is. Poor NeNe.
She sits down with Lisa because she wants to tell her what happened with Gregg. This is rare for them, Gregg and NeNe have a great relationship and he is very supportive of her, as we have seen through out this season. Lisa believes that Gregg is just being protective of NeNe.

The drama doesn’t stop there with NeNe. She calls Dwight and asks him to visit her. When he arrives she admits to a huge confrontation that she has just had with Kim. NeNe feels as if Kim has betrayed her by refusing to partner with her on the hit single “Tardy for The Party”. When things get heated, Kim puts her finger in NeNe’s face, and NeNe admits to Dwight that she snaps and goes “bananas.”


Kim tells Kandi the story from her perspective, telling her that they were yelling at each other and NeNe put both hands on Kim’s throat and pushed her back. When Kandi asks what Kim’s reaction was Kim says she couldn’t do anything because NeNe is an “f-ing moose”
NeNe swears Kim has a personality disorder (“I’m not even a doctor, and I have already diagnosed her”) Kandi and Dwight are both obviously stunned by the story.

 

Kandi and A.J. celebrate Mother’s Day with her mom and his entire brood. Kandi’s mother Joyce sits A.J. down, and admits that after seeing how happy Kandi is with him, wants to work towards making things better. A.J. is visibly relieved and happy now too. Kandi says that they can all now breathe and have peace.

 

Before the fashion show, Kim calls NeNe to make sure they can be in the same room together. NeNe accepts the invitation to go by Kim’s house,rolling her eyes and saying that Kim wants to “discuss…I don’t know…something! The b- is crazy!!!” Kim is hoping that NeNe has some remorse from the choking incident. NeNe doesn’t. NeNe thinks that Kim is delusional and  believes she is innocent in the entire debacle, which she isn’t. NeNe has tried with Kim, which seems to really be true. After Kim said all of those nasty "drag queen" things about her in the first season, NeNe has tried to clear the air by inviting her to Mexican food, inviting her to the Alter Ego shoot, introducing her to Kandi, and including her with all the other girls and Kim just keeps talking smack about her!! (Can you tell I am on NeNe’s side?) It is obvious that each girl believes the other to be at fault for the physical fight. Kim keeps acting as if she is calm, but we all know the truth about Kim’s temper (see: wig pull incident with Sheree ala Episode 3) Finally, NeNe breaks and says “I will not sit here and listen to your lies” and storms off.
Later NeNe says she would “rather pluck off every toenail one by one, stick my feet in a pair of sandals, and then walk down the street with them bleeding…than to ever be friends with Kim.”

 

At the fashion show, Lisa takes the high road and shows up on time and dressed to impress, to show a respect to Sheree that Sheree did not give to her. All the girls attend, and NeNe approaches Kandi to get an apology. Here is NeNe getting in to her usual drama, and Kandi refuses to apologize or even talk to her. Kandi is right to say that the drama is between Kim, NeNe and “Don’t Be Tardy for The Party”.


Sheree is nervous for her fashion show, but because of Team Dwight, the show is a success. Everyone seems to really like it, with the exception of Lisa who says that Sheree’s clothes reflect her personality: “stuffy and cold”. Personally, I feel they are a bit “all over the place” and the models seem a bit stiff and pulled tight, but hell, who wouldn’t be if Sheree and Dwight were your bosses??


At the end of Season 2 we find that Sheree later shows her line in New York and is now working on an exercise video. Lisa and Ed are still not pregnant, and are working on a relationship book. Kim has not set a date and Papa is still not divorced, but “Tardy for the Party” did hit #3 on iTunes dance list. (NeNe says the song and Kim could “go jump in the f-in’ river and drown”), NeNe is doing publicity for her book, and Kandi is jumping into her work with a new album after mourning the death of her ex-Fiancé A.J.
