NeNe Leakes Likes Star Jones Now, Dancers

Well, at least she is trying to put their whole Apprentice beef behind her.

She was the reason she quit Celebrity Apprentice, but that isn't stopping NeNe Leakes from keeping it cordial with former fellow contestant Star Jones. "Saying hello costs me nothing – that's free," the Real Housewives of Atlanta star, 43, tells ESSENCE.com. "I'm not so in a rage that I can't say hello and I can't stand in the same room as Star." The two famously feuded and resorted to name-calling on the NBC show, and their rivalry hit a peak when Leakes unloaded on Jones in front of a client. But now, months after the show wrapped and John Rich was declared the winner, there's no hard feelings – at least as far as Leakes is concerned. "I don't hate her," she says. "I don't know anybody I hate." She adds: "Star is Star. I wish her all the best."

Well Well Well. Doesn't Linnethia 'NeNe' Leakes sound as if she matured over the last few months. I can dig it!

But am I really buying it is the true question....hmmmmmmm.

NeNe Leakes Get Into A Lil Tiff With The Russ Parr Morning Show (AUDIO)

WHEW! Yall now damn well that when you interview NeNe Leakes, please prepare to be entertained!

The hot-headed reality star was a call-in guest on the Russ Parr Morning Show to promote her new play, Celebrity Apprentice, Star Jones and more when co-hosts Alfredas and "Shaqwana" immediately started to go innnnnnnn on her attitude and bullying ways.

Let's just say that NeNe didn't take these jabs laying down.

Brace yourselves! Take a listen under the break.....

Was NeNe Leakes Out Of Line Against Star Jones On "Celebrity Apprentice"? (VIDEO)

First and foremost, I have to say that I was APPALLED at Linnethia "NeNe" Leakes last night on "Celebrity Apprentice". Not just appalled in the literal sense, but "MOUTH WIDE OPEN" appalled!

For those of you that did not catch "Celebrity Apprentice" last night, NeNe Leakes and Star Jones had their highly anticipated showdown for all of America to look and gawk at when NeNe was BEYOND pissed at Star for suggesting that she be this week's Project Manager. NeNe was under the impression that Star suggested she take the role as PM to sabotage her in a way (quite possibly...that Star is manipulative). Oh, but Star had NO IDEA what was coming her way when NeNe unleashed venom and her massive frame on her to send a message that she doesn't appreciate Star's "back-stabbing" ways.

WOOOOSAH!

When speaking about NeNe, I have said this time and time again....this woman has problems! In the above footage, it is quite clear that she completely "blacked out". Am I the only one who thought so? For a person to become so enraged and to "act a donkey" in front of Mr. Trump and the business executive from "CHI" hair products, was just flat out class-less!

There HAS to be another way to express your disdain and non-approval of others NeNe rather than yelling, neck-rolling, imposing on people's personal space, etc.etc.etc.....SHYT IS NOT CUTE, girlfriend! I was under the impression that your buffoonery was only conducive to the Real Housewives of Atlanta, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. You actually had the UNMITIGATED GALL to embarrass you children on national TV!!! SMH.

Don't get me wrong, I too feel that Star is a tab bit manipulative, but COME ON...this is a competition. She is only playing the game. If NeNe wasn't so caught up in loyalty and "friendships" (come one....these people are NOT your friends), maybe you wouldn't let these sort of issues ruffle your feathers.

NeNe, here is a piece of advice I have for you: SEEK HELP! Plain and simple....

PS - Did she call Star a "punk azz bytch"?!?! LOL

Ummmmm, NeNe Leakes Isn't The Only One Who Hates Star Jones!

Add LaToya Jackson to that long growing list!

Celebrity Aprentice is proving to be a TV hit this season partly because of all of the drama between the castmates on and off camera.

Not only has Housewives star NeNe Leakes issued a verbal attack on the former View co-host Star Jones, but now it's LaToya Jackson's turn to let Star have it!

"I think everybody has a hard time with Star. I really do. Ok, I don't want to say anything really bad. Ok, she's mean…because I always say, if I had lost that much weight I would have been so happy and pleased with myself. It's something inside that's hurting her to react that way to everyone…just put a smile on your face sometimes!"

hahahahahahahahaha!

Damn, LaToya! Did you HAVE to bring up her past weight! The SHADE has run rampant and I must say I'm loving it!

Today's Phrase That Pays Goes To...

....Star Jones!

 "I am an educated African American woman I am not going to lower myself. Period. Bar none. Did I sleep with her and forget to call the next day?  Because I am starting to feel that way. Have you ever had an experience where someone talks about you again and again and again?" - Star Jones to Wendy Williams on NeNe Leakes' constant, negative, media tirade on her!

Let the church say AMEN!

NeNe Leakes Continues Her Negative Tirade On Star Jones!

 

Mizz NeNe Leakes, I have a question for you! What charity are you exactly playing for on Celebrity Apprentice? Because I swear, all I hear you talk about is Star Jones! In a recent interview with Ellen DeGeneres, the outspoken Housewife shared:

"She [Star Jones] is bossy, she is manipulative, conniving," Leakes says. "And I'm not even being funny. I think that is real. I honestly think that is who she is. When I walked into the situation, I tried to walk in with no preconceived notions. I was just thinking, 'Okay, I'm going to do the show. I'm going to get to know who Star is.' I think she had preconceived notions of who she thought I was just from watching me on the Housewives," she continues. "I think she thought I was going to come in and take over. I tried to get to know her. Some people are difficult to get to know. She's not easiest person to get to know. She is a disaster. "I don't think anybody is getting along with Star. I don't think she's easy to get along with."

"What happened to cause the riff?" DeGeneres asks.

Leakes replies, "Well, I just think Star is manipulative."

NeNe, please take this one piece of advice. If you want people to stop referring to you as the angry black woman, then STOP ACTING LIKE ONE!

Star Jones Breaks It Down...Are People That Thirsty For Fame???

Dancers, if you do nothing else for today....PLEASE get into this piece that Star Jones wrote for Uptown Magazine! A GREAT read of epic proportions:

I was recently having a conversation with a friend and the topic of shame came up. Over a glass of Sancerre, I was lamenting how shocked I was that one particular reality “star” had done some ridiculously over-the-top ghetto (not the place, rather the attitude) thing on television. I can’t remember whether it was pulling hair, vomiting in the street, cursing at her children, spitting on her “best friend,” hitting, pushing, or some other ignorant action, but trust me, it was so inappropriate and it was all in the news. The legitimate news! I’m talking right up there with the Tucson shooting, State of the Union address, and the Super Bowl. I said to my friend, “She must be so ashamed for the whole world to see her act like that; how embarrassing!

My friend actually laughed at me and said, “Girl, she’s not ashamed or embarrassed. As long as she’s famous, she’s happy.”

When did the quest for fame overtake the drive for excellence? When did starring in a sex tape rather than a breakout performance in an independent film become your entrée into stardom? When did becoming the third, fourth, or fifth baby mama of an athlete or a musician make you a “housewife”? When did posing with your behind up and your boobs out standing in front of a stripper pole make you a model?

When shame moved out.

Star Jones Talks NeNe Leakes, Heart Surgery, Barbara Walters And More!

Lawyer, talk show host, and now reality star Star Jones sat down down with AOL's Black Voices and gave a candid interview about all that's happening in her life!

She discusses her heart surgery she had last year, her rift with Barbara Walters and her now infamous feud with her Celebrity Apprentice co-star NeNe Leakes!

You are featured on the new season of 'Celebrity Apprentice' and the charity that you compete for is The American Heart Association. The show is getting a ton of pre-press and mainly because NeNe Leakes has been doing interviews about you. What went wrong with you and NeNe?

This actually saddens me. Black women trashing other black women all for the sake of personal aggrandizement. When the cast was first announced, I was both excited and concerned. Excited that this was going to be the most diverse cast in primetime reality programming and concerned, because the media immediately started the drum-roll of "can this many black women get along?" The four of us actually chatted about the unique opportunity we had to influence the perception of black women and the way we interact. We each brought something different to the show, so I had hoped we could avoid falling into the typical "snake charmer in your face loud bombastic black woman" stereotypical box that was expected. Some of us were more successful at our quest than others. I knew I wanted to approach the game intelligently, professionally and strategically, while keeping in mind my true purpose for being there – winning money for my charity.

You have a great deal of Black female friends – Vanessa Bell Calloway, Natalie Cole and Holly Robinson Peete to name a few. Were you surprised at Nene's personal attack on you and the implications that you don't gel with other Black women?

Who are you telling! You know my girlfriend gatherings are legendary! But you'll see this season on the show, at some point Nene attacked all the black women on the show and scared the other women to death with her aggressive approach. But to be fair, it is an approach that works for her kind of television interaction, as evidenced by the great ratings they generate. But it isn't an approach that works in the professional environment and it isn't an approach that most sisters use in interacting with each other. I would hope, as she becomes more exposed to a variety of professional situations, she will tone down the vitriolic emotional reactions and learn to express herself in manner that is more reflective of the majority of black women in America.  

Star handled this NeNe situation in such a mature, articulate and "lil girl....have a BIG SEAT" way!

I don't know about yall but I am soooooooooooooooooooooooo over NeNe Leakes. Sho' am!!! I say that a lot, but she has really plucked my nerve in 2011. You can't bring "Housewives" everywhere, girl! And then you're scaring the poor white girls on the show as well? Flag on the play....

Kim Kardashian Gets A Drink Thrown In Her Face!

Lawwwd, ha'mercy!!! Alert the authorities. America's princess is under distress.....

Via Kim's blog:

I want to address this because everyone has been asking me if I’m ok after the bar fight last night. I’m totally fine, guys!

Last night Kourtney, Scott, Khloe and I went out to a bar to have a fun night on Khloe’s last night in NYC. A drunk male fan came up to me and asked to take a picture, and I obliged, but his girlfriend, who was also drunk, got a little out of hand.

Luckily I had Scott and Khloe there to protect me.

Protect you??? Winch you betta fight back! Chiiiiiile....

None of us were drinking… we just wanted a fun family night out, but when people see the cameras rolling, they try to get attention and I guess that’s what happened when the drunk girl saw that we were filming KKTNY. I always take the high road, so we all left straight after and didn’t feed into their drama.

Ok, moving on!

Kim, Kim, Kim! We have to get YOU and SNOOKI some boxing lessons, because you can't rely on other people darling. I understand that you are "pretty" and "fabulous", but that's not gonna help your case when you're caught in a back alley, 2:00 in the morning, butt azz nekkid screaming for Khloe!

No Ma'am!!!!!!!!!!!!

IAmFlashdance is on vacation this week; normal posting will resume Monday, Oct.11th.  

Kim Kardashian And Miles Austin Are DUNZO (Again).....

Kim you may have to come to terms with your SINGLEDOM, doll! Who is going to put up with your lifestyle of gallivanting all over the Universe selling "Kardashian EVERYTHING"? Huh???? I'll wait for an answer.....

According to multiples sources close to the couple, “They broke up about a week ago. It’s typical after a break up for Kim to take some time by herself. When she broke up with Reggie, she went to Mexico and now after her break with Miles she went to Europe. I’m sure they’ll be on-and-off again but at the moment, they are 100 percent definitely off."

Ya know, I wish I cared about these two as a couple, but I'm thinking about putting them on the "Who Fives A Phuck" list like Speidi!

Kim, just get back with Reggie and have beautiful brown babies, k?

"This recent surgery is a follow-up to the thoracic surgery she had 30 years ago. The procedure was successful and she is recovering well with her family. Star is grateful for everyone’s thoughts and prayers."

Well, we are happy you are doing fine Star!
