AceShowbiz - NeNe Leakes is giving her all for her TV fans. Viewers will see much of the Bravo personality as a new report suggests that the network has given the 51-year-old a new spin-off of her own which will run for 12 episodes.
NeNe's folks reportedly tell MTO News that the new show will be made in the style of Lisa Vanderpump's "Vanderpump Rules". It will focus on NeNe and her SWAGG Boutique staff.
According to the site, The show will follow NeNe as "she manages her Swagg sales associates in the SWAGG Boutique." It will also feature the life of its very eccentric crew which includes them working and partying together. Obviously, it will also offer an insight into them dealing with real life drama.
This is such good news for NeNe, who recently opened up the SWAGG boutique at the MGM Grand Hotel Casino in Las Vegas. The source goes on saying that NeNe's new salary for this show and her salary from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" will make her the highest paid star at the network.
However, it should be noted that NeNe and Bravo have yet to finalize the contract for the planned spin-off series. The star was also said to still be in negotiations regarding her salary for season 12 of "RHOA".
This arrives after it was reported that Bravo was planning to bring in Tamar Braxton for the new season. The network allegedly would use $2.5 million that they save on NeNe following her suspension to pay Tamar to join the show.
This is allegedly why NeNe has yet to reach an agreement for her contract with Bravo, resulting in her not joining other cast members who have started filming for the next season. "NeNe is disappointed to not be filming right now but it's really important for her to be compensated fairly," a source close to the Bravo production previously said. "After all, she's an OG Housewife and knows her worth and won't settle for what doesn't work contractually for her."
