“NeNe don’t do FOX!”
NeNe Leakes, the saucy star of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Atlanta, scrapped a scheduled appearance on the Big Apple’s Good Day New York Friday after realizing that the AM show airs on a FOX News affiliate.
According to reports, the outspoken Southern belle was set to promote her autobiography Never Make the Same Mistake Twice, but sources on the set claim NeNe realized it was a FOX show just a few minutes before her appearance and hauled butt out of there. Of course, not before telling everyone within earshot how much she hates the network.
She “stormed out, screaming I hate FOX! I didn’t know this was a FOX show,” a spokesperson for FOX told EW.
Word is NeNe’s still salty about a 2009 FOX Atlanta report that claimed the former stripper and her husband Greg are broke and were evicted from the ATL home featured on their hit reality series.
