Is NeNe Leakes leaving reality TV behind?


That’s what fans of the breakout star of “Real Housewives of Atlanta” are wondering after Leakes tweeted a statement that implied that she has left the show that made her a household name.


“Never continue n a job u don’t enjoy!” Leakes tweeted Wednesday. “Follow ur passion & success will follow u!”


Leakes’ comments are notable in light of reports that the star has departed the series, of which she is the sole remaining original cast member. According to Black Media Scoop, Leakes quit because her producers did not meet her salary demands.


”Not only did she want a raise, but she wanted to have say on who she filmed with, and other crazy stuff,” a source told the website.

Rumors of Leakes’ departure first arose after the Season 6 reunion special, which reportedly left Bravo exec Andy Cohen unhappy with Leakes’ behavior.


“He was pissed about the way that NeNe acted on the reunion this year, so much so that he might not ask her to come back,” a source told Life & Style. “He thinks she has become a diva and was very irritated with her for not really answering his questions!”


Black Media Scoop also reports that two of Leakes’ “Real Housewives” co-stars, Cynthia Bailey and Porsha Williams, have been fired from the hit show.


Williams’ dismissal could also be attributed to the reunion, during which Williams got into a fight with cast member Kenya Moore, including grabbing Moore by the hair and dragging her across the floor.
