'Real Housewives of Atlanta': NeNe Leakes says she'll never forgive Kim Zolciak
After months of teasing the end of their friendship, we witnessed the beginning of NeNe Leakes and Kim Zolciak's feud on Sunday's (Jan. 16) episode. It's just the most recent of their several parting of ways over the three seasons of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," but this one seems to be sticking.
"I haven't spoken to Kim in six months now," NeNe tells Zap2it. "I will never speak to her again and I will never have anything to do with her again ever, because I have come to a place in my life in my life where I am comfortable. I don't need drama. I don't need people in my life who don't lift my spirits."
It all started when NeNe joined what we've come to affectionately call "the bust tour" and things started off fine, though Kim wasn't happy that NeNe had joked about her in her Atlanta TV talk segment. But things went sour when NeNe expressed that she didn't like the way Kim spoke to her assistant, Sweetie. That caused them to start brawling and things were said on both sides.
Kim said, "F***k you, B***h!" to NeNe and that set the Athens girl off. When she got up and moved toward Kim, we thought we'd get a repeat of the legendary strangling from last season. Luckily, Kandi Burruss and her crew stepped between them. To this day, NeNe says she doesn't regret referring to Sweetie as a "slave."
"Kim treats her like a slave," she says. "Anybody who'll let anybody talk to them, black, white, whatever color, talk to her like, 'Get your Black a** up,' or 'Get my cigarettes, "B***h,' you have to be a slave. Because there is nothing else in the world you can be to allow that. There's not enough money in the world to allow someone to speak to you that way."
Yet, there was a time when the two were close and NeNe admits Kim can be fun. "She's a great person to go out, have a laugh, and tell a bunch of lies with. She's good at that, but as far as being a 100 percent genuine, loyal girlfriend, she will never be good at that."
So, is there any way the two can patch things up? Maybe, if Kim apologizes? NeNe says no.
"There's nothing she can do to get my forgiveness," she says. "I don't want that in my life. If she apologizes and maybe I see her out, I'll say hi. But as far as hanging out, I'm not into that."
What was your take on the fight? Sound off below!

First I like to say Nene girl I just love you. She is right no one should talk to any one like Kim talk to Sweetie. I know Sweetie does not want to be on tv that bad to where she let any one talk to her like that. As a women I feel bad thatshe does not love herself enough.
Nene is losing it big time.
Deone12, I second your sentiment. Great post as always, Jethro.
I don't know why NeNe lost it, other than the fact that she's crazy. Yes Kim is annoying, but her relationship w/ Sweetie is none of their business. She pays her and if she didn't enjoy it she would quit.
I think both Kandi and NeNe are jealous of Kim's "success." Kandi may be a Grammy winner but she'll never have a successful music career as an artist and it pisses her off that Kim had at least one hit single when she can't hit a note to save her life. NeNe is desperate to stay on TV but I doubt that local gig or The Apprentice will take her any further than that, especially if she leaves the show.
The fight was typical NeNe. Run her big fat mouth twist some words around to start drama and then when she gets called on her crap she gets abusive. You know that she probably sits at home and watches herself over and over and for some reason she just can't seem to get it. She's trash pure and simple.
That one person who said that Kandie Burgess is jealous is out of their f***king mind. She has been were Kim is trying to go, Dummy!! Why or how could she possibly be jealous? As far as you taking about hitting notes, obviously you don't know what singing is if you say she can't hit a note and Kim can? That's just ridiculous....oh & believe me Nene Leaks isn't jealous by far...Kim has all the success she has bcuz of Kandi & now why would. Nene be jealous of that? She is doing it on her own with her skills &personality
What does Kim have a couple of tracks were she sounds like "man" (to keep it mildly) Kim cannot sing& it's simple as that, she is absolutely nothing to be jealous of, check your resources before coming on here &typing bullshit**!!! Oh & thanks for ur time.?
I agree that Kim is annoying, inconsiderate and maybe behaves like a "dumb blond." HOWEVER, NeNe is having serious emotional problems. She probably should participate in an anger management class, get a prescription for anti depression medication and learn not to fly off the handle so quickly...and loudly. I think that NeNe lacks emotional control. I mean Kim annoyed Kandi too, but she didn't throw ugly words at her nor attempt to fight her. NeNe needs help ya'll. The Sistah is in a lot of pain. Generally people who are loud and must be the center all the time, are calling for help. I hope she gets it before she completely self destructs.
Nene is a bully. She started it, with the dumb blond stuff, if you can't take it, then don't dish it! I will not be sorry to see Nene leave the series, except I have no idea who would want that baggage around.... You almost had me back as a fan this season Nene...sorry you showed your real self once again! P.S. you need a new stylist, your clothes are not looking appropriate for your gianourmous frame... And the mistress/trash comment was so first season...find something else it's old!
You got it mixed up, I said Kim can't hit a note to save her life. She's a terrible singer, she knows it but doesn't care because her single sold well. Kandi is very talented but she hasn't had a hit in a long time especially as a solo artist, so it kills her to see someone as untalented as Kim get more attention. Yes she helped Kim out a lot, but she's also riding her coattails a bit now. She toured with her because she knew she would get more attention, and face it all of Kandi's new songs are pretty boring compared to Kim's.
And yes I would say that NeNe is definitely jealous which is sad, and I do think she has emotional issues/ anger management problems.
NeNe is jealous of Kim, plain and simple. Why is that Kim is the only one she goes off on? She's (NeNe) a drama queen and she talks about all of the girls. I think NeNe is not happy with where she is in life and Kim being a single mom still makes things happpen for herself, no mattter how she does it,she does it. You never hear talk of Kim having financial problems....hmmmm!
