: Two weeks ago MediaTakeOut.com EXCLUSIVELY REPORTED to you that NeNe Leakes had been evicted from her home.
Apparently some hack plagiarizing journalist over at the Atlanta Journal Constitution named Rodney Ho (Obviously - he was named after his MOTHER!!) was reading our report also. Because this son of a HO took all our investigative research - got some quotes from NeNe and the rental agency - and slapped his name at the end of it.
Here's a piece of what Ho wrote:
The notice, filed Sept. 24 with the Magistrate Court of Gwinnett County, said Greg Leakes owed $6,240 in past due rent. “The tenant said they would move by Sept. 14th because they could no longer afford the house,” the notice said.Told ya so. Some of you guys owe us a BIG OLE APOLOGY!! And so does the Atlanta-Journal Constitution. They used to be a good paper ... we've gotta question how they can have a plagiarizer like Ho on their payroll.The owner of the home, Kajani Shenaz Ali, lives overseas, Pierce said. Online records show the home in the gated community of Stonebrier at Sugarloaf, was purchased for $829,400 in September 2006. Pierce said the Leakeses moved into the home shortly after it was built in 2006.
NeNe Leakes, in a series of e-mails Tuesday, would not say where she is living now. “It’s none of your business,” she wrote. But she noted that they “are financial able [sic] and stable to live where ever we feel fits.”
NeNe, 41, wrote that the eviction notice does not have her name on it, adding “you don’t know my relationship with Greg so be careful what you report!”
The Duluth home, she wrote in an e-mail late last week, “was a lease purchase corporate deal with Greg & his company. Things didn’t work out between the two of them so they did what they had to do and he did what he had to do.”
On Tuesday, she wrote, “If we rent, lease purchase or buy, money is still coming out of my pocket. So who’s [sic] business is that??”
What in the hell is this show about anyway.
Real Housewives getting evicted and not being able to keep their weave up. I will admit I really never watched the show.
What was it about negros showing off big houses down south that are equivalent to an apartment in NYC Manhattan in cost. Actually Manhattan cost more.
Go live in Bankhead Georgia that is affordable.
mzlediva Flag post people need to stop living above their means.
--------
girlll you soooo right. i cram to understand how folks go around buying 200k cars for the sole purpose of impressing people. if you gotta do all that to impress somebody they are likely not the type you should be hanging around anyway
LEARN TO START LIVING BELOW YOUR MEANS FOLKS...let's cut down on all this ghetto mentality
Her and the rest of them Atlanta housewives need to live within their means! we are in a depression (recesion if you're white) and you have to live with what you got. People with millions are cutting back so you know everybody else has to. They putting on a front for the show but come on now, times are getting hard. It's back to the ghetto for alot of people...I never had much so I know how to make it.
I love the Real Housewives of Atlanta that's the best one out of the three (NY and OC SUCK HARD). I still love NeNe, I'm sorry that things with her and Greg did not work out he seemed like a nice guy. I think Kim and NeNe know each other from another life (Escorts) the only difference is NeNe got married and Kim is still a hooker.
@ DQC Flag post yall are some serious bitches! why are yall steadily trying to tear down these ATL housewives?! how come yall never picked on the tacky NYers or the dingy OCers? oh, cause the ATLers are black?! that's just evil! ************** This is a BLACK WEB SITE and it is black owned. So mostly black stories and celebrities are goig to be featured. I don't want news on those white girls on here. I can go to t m z . com for that! lol Us weekly and all the blogs have this story though...Like i said...it's in the local paper down her in Atlanta ...front page at that! The Atlanta Journal and Constitution.. visit ajc. com
Some of you guys owe us a BIG OLE APOLOGY!! And so does the Atlanta-Journal Constitution. They used to be a good paper ... we've gotta question how they can have a plagiarizer like Ho on their payroll ************** lol..Mto ..yall dead wrong for talking about our staff writer like this...! cheap shot.lmao Rodney Ho might visit mto. Yall messy! he he
I believe there is more to this story. I don't believe she lived in that house she leased/rented the house to use while taping the show. I think they moved out to return to her regular home and my have left a balance.
Although the economy is bad I don't think she and her husband have exhusted all of there funds. At least I hope not.
The moral to this story is what MTO? In case you didn't get the newsflash or the clothes hanger attennas aren't working properly and you missed it...we are liivng in a financially depressed economy. Believe me everyone is scaling back & cutting costs. I'm a homeowner as well and just as uneasy as the rest of the economic uncertainty.
AGAIN, the only person on that show that had REAL wealth is DeShawn. all of the other chicks were frontin and posing. they really messed up with that season. the people they found for Orange County and New York were legitimate wealthy people. the chicks from Atlanta were living a champagne life on a beer budget, except DeShawn
My bf told me that Greg wasn't her man. I was like, uh huh, yes he is! And whatdoyaknow...NeNe bust out "My name ain't on the paperwork. You don't know my relationship with Greg". smh
BTW, mzlisha75 - I LOVE me some Res!!! I hate she got slept on though - Her album is amazing! 700 Mile Situation is my jam!! I like her new stuff too, but it's not 'How I Do'.
That is so sad about NeNe...she and her husband seemed like they were really cool people on the show...they have a young son and it must be hard for him to be in the spotlight on the show with his parents and then having to be moved all around due to eviction...that can really be a bit much on a child...see that's why Keith Sweat said "hell to the n'all Bobby" when thay asked to show his sons on tv...that boy has to face his peers at school knowing all his business about his home life(same thing with Sheree and Kim's kids too)...these reality tv show producers need to really explain that, to people when they are signing them up for shows...that everything they do or say from the time they appear on the show is going to be put on front street...EVERYTHING will be put on blast...not to mention people from the persons past stiring shyt up (ex-spouses, haters,baby mamas, jump-offs etc...) I can tell from watching the show that the ladies did not realize the show was going to have this kind of impact...I have heard all kinds of shyt about these people...but that's what happens when YOU put your business in the street, especially when no one was asking...when YOU put your ass out there, have your shyt tight...no faking it to you make it, no fake balling, none of that bullshyt...because what YOU do not only impacts YOU, sometimes it trickles down to your loved ones as well...then they have to be out in the street defending your honor when your name comes up...especially with kids, who can be cruel sometimes with their teasing...BRAVO should have checked the financial records of these people before allowing them on the air, to make sure they really had paper...because that's the shows backdrop...it's supposed to be about a bunch of wealthy ladies being in the same social circles...this was not a good pool of applicants that BRAVO selected from...Atlanta has some serious Betty's...that ain't faking a damn thing...I mean truly "old guard money"...problem with that is...those type of people consider bragging about wealth to be "low class"...and it is "low class" to brag about what you have...you look and act like you "ain't used to nothing"... (bragging) that's just how it's perceived...celebrity or not...BRAVO needs to maybe just scrap this show if they are not going to take the time to do a background research on people before putting them on tv...because it was some serious fake ballin with this group...it appears that Deshawn Snow and Lisa Wu Hartwell are the only two who really have some paper...but "it is what it is"...all those ladies opted to have their business put out there for the world to see...
How in the hell is he stealing when he did his research, actually spoke to NeNe unlike MTO. Magistrate Court records are public records so how is he stealing or plagiarizing when he is an actual journalist and you guys report bullshit.
NeNe financial troubles was reported by several outlets before you guys claimed to report it.
Funny how you guys always claiming people stealing your stories and yet you guys post pics from other sources without giving credit, report stories from other sources without giving credit.
So what MTO, yal steal other people's shyt all teh time....MOST of the stuff yal report i have read it the day before on other sites, so knock it off.
MTO clearly did NOT give this much information when they first reported the story, that's why it's being posted now....lol
Just FINALLY, some of the whack news yal report came TRUE!!!
The $6k she dropped on her son's suit she should pay her RENT. With her attitude I am surprised she does not own the house she lives in - she is a poser. She is so ghetto she is embarassing. I hope DeShawn drops out - she does not belong with these nasty girls. What message are they sending young black girls?
***FAKES SHOCK***
Whatever. Only gullible mofos would believe that just because she's on tv she "has money" or my favorite "more money than y'all hatin azzes." No simple azz it's called television; entertainment. They have contracts like errybody else and often times the initial contract (assuming there's a season 2) aint paying shyt. The homes, and amenities are often leased or down right borrowed.
Oh well...
Very interesting comment NeNe made - you don't know my relationship with Greg and there she goes criticizing Kim for being with a married man. All hypocrites I tell you - Lisa is also loud and low class. Why did they choose to beat up on Kim on the reunion show and not Sheree - I think they are afraid - they know they cannot beat down Sheree
YALL R SO... STUPID. SHE SAID THAT THEY MOVED THERE BCUZ OF HIS JOB WHICH MEANS THEY PAID HIM TO RELOCATE, THEN HE WAS PROBABLY LAID OFF DUE TO THIS F$CKED UP ECONOMY AN HAD TO MOVE. MS. NENE NEVER STATED THAT SHE OWNED THE HOME, BUT AS LONG AS SHE'S RECIEVING MAIL THERE, & LIVING THERE IT'S HER'S TO CALL HOME. IT'S SAD THAT U GUYS R SO HARSH ON PEOPLE (NOTHINGS 4EVER)& PEOPLE FALL AS LONG AS U GET BACK ON UR FEET & LET THAT B UR STRENGHTNER. NENE SEEMS LIKE A SMART WOMEN AN EVENTUALLY SOMETHING GOOD WILL COME OUT OF IT FOR HER AND GREGG CAUSE SHE'S GIVING AND DOING SOMETHING POSITIVE FOR WOMEN WHO CANT HELP THEMSELVES WITH HER TWISTED HEARTS FOUNDATION AND GREGG SEEMS LIKE A GREAT GUY SO GOD IS GONNA LOOK OUT TRUST. HANG IN NENE KEEP PRAYING AN ALWAY'S KNOW GOD'S ON UR SIDE. MY #1 HOUSEWIFE
F a housewife, and anyone woman who wants to be one that can't get it on their own....Nothing good is going to come from her situation unless she marries another rich man...She has no skills she's a housewife, f me, suck me and make dinner...And pick out a good nanny to watch the kids...That's all they do
NeNe is a total fool to let Greg go. She obviously has no education or career to fall back on, since she is WAY to old and big to strip now. It is only a matter of time before all of the little appearance money which I'm sure isn't more than a couple of hundred dries up and she will be dead as broke. What a shame. Didn't being a stripper and broke teach her anything? I think she would have learned by 41 how to keep a sugar daddy, lesson 101 in the stripper manual.
NeNe is funny as hell and she should get her own reality show. maybe if her and Greg break up, she can do a I Love New York-type of dating show. shes unattractive and delusional just like New York but thats what makes her so damn funny.lol. anyway the producers need to choose REAL wealthy people for the next show. these chicks are all frontin and Kim made her white sistas look so bad. why is everyone on that show fat (DeShawn) or busted (NeNe, Kim, Sherae)REAL wealthy woman keep themselves lookin right. watch The Real Housewives of Orange County. theyre slim, fake tittties, their hair done, nice clothes, botox, all of that, but they look RICH. they dont look broken down. real rich women dont have tired ass weaves (NeNe, Kim) and husbands that sit at home all day waiting to get called for a job (Lisa-FAKE ASSES
Agreeing 100 and 50 percent with gigi2007. They were all broke down looking and their behavior was suspect for sure. Clearly none of them came from original money. The lack of class displayed was so evident, it was sad. DeShawn was so inexperienced in the mommy and money game. The day she was stuffing her face and her son was crying because he had to wait for his breakfast was all I could stand. What loving mother makes her child wait to eat while she eats? I've never seen such a thing. NeNe was just plain sad. I know her and Kim say they met at a gym, but I'm pretty sure they were strippers together. Lisa, wants people to believe that she's all of this and that, but the way she behaved on that Reunion show made it painfully obvious that she's nothing more than a ghetto grabber who's so-called success is nothing more than luck. That other one, the so-called designer was, simply put, a complete mess. Swore up and down that she was the fashionista of the show. When she showed up to the reunion show with that linty looking blanket of a dress, I fell out laughing. And that played out pony tail, which, by the way, was literally a "pony's tail." Their next show should be called, "The Wanna Be Wealthy Wives of Atlanta."
From the beginning it was never mentioned that NeNe and her Husband owned that house! In Fact 85% of the Houses whether Big or Small, Gated Communities or not, are rentals! If this is associated with Greg's Business Associations, then it's very typical that this is what happens. The only difference is the timing of Housewifes" proberly ran into the timing of NeNe and Greg, finding a proper place to live. Don't sleep on NeNe, I'm quite sure that she is living well!
stormzoe Flag post @FIRE4U... I said it before and I'll say it again. Why does this broke mess have to be connected to the Black Housewives show? I like Nene but I know there are some wealthy Black folks in Atlanta that Bravo could have chosen. Instead we have Nene who is walking on financial eggshells and Sheree who is beyond broke. Basically both women are being kicked out of their homes. Can't you suggest some rich Atlanta elite to the producers of Bravo. Girl, work your peachtree magic *************** gIRL..NO ONE WANTED TO DO IT. OUR LOCAL DJ HERE IN ATLANTA TALKED ABOUT IT ON THE RADIO RECENTLY.HE SAID..THEY ASKED HIM AND HIS WIFE AND A LOT OF REALLY WEALTHY PEOPLE THAT HE KNOWS.AND THEY ALL SAID NO. A LOT OF THE REALLY TRULY WEALTHY BLACKS ARE VERY LOW KEY AND AFFLUENT . NOT SOMEONE THAT WOULD WANT TO JUST PUT ALL THEIR BUSINESS OUT THERE. THE DJ SAID THESE WERE THE ONLY 5 THEY COULD GET TO AGREE TO DO IT.
GUYS..WHEN MTO USED THE TERM HO..THEY ARE REFERRING TO THE JOURNALIST THAT WROTE THIS PEICE FOR THE AJC NEWSPAPER HERE.HIS NAME IS RODNEY HO. HE IS A STAFF WRITER AND HE DID NOT STEAL THE STORY FROM MTO.I SERIOUSLY DOUBT THAT..SO PLAGERISM IS REACHING. LOL IT APPEARS AS THOUGH HE FOLLOWED THE PROFESSIONAL RULE OF JOURNALISM BY RESEARCHING THE INFORMATION OR TIPS THAT WERE OUT THERE ON THE VARIOUS BLOGS..ETC..,AND BY ALLOWING NENE TO MAKE A STATEMENT AS TO WHAT ACTUALLY OCCURED IT BECAME A FACTUAL STORY .RATHER THAN GOSSIP. THEY GOT HER STATEMENT IN WRITING VIA EMAIL...MTO..IN ALL FAIRNESS YOU ALL DID NOT. THE STORY IS PROFESSIONALLY WRITTEN AND DETAILS THE FACTS. ALSO, MTO NEEDS TO USE MR. HO'S FULL NAME WHEN COMMENTING ABOUT HIM. IT MAKES IT APPEAR AS THOUGH THEY ARE CALLING HIM A HO..HIS NAME IS RODNEY HO..AND YOU GUYS KNOW IT ! LMAO (GOTTA LOOK OUT FOR MY ATL PEEPS..CAUSE MTO CLOWNING...)
prettyfaceAKA
problem with that is...those type of people consider bragging about wealth to be "low class"...and it is "low class" to brag about what you have...you look and act like you "ain't used to nothing"... (bragging) that's just how it's perceived...celebrity or not..
----------
*standing ovation* you said a mouthful girl!
THAT SHOW WAS FAKE NONE OF THEM LIVED IN ATLANTA THE ONLY ONE THAT WAS ALWAYS ABOUT HER BUSINESS WAS DASHAWN AND THOSE PLACES WERE THEY WENT WAS BASICALLY NEW AND WERENT DOING BUSINESS THERE ARE SO MANY WEALTHY PEOPLE IN ATLANTA WHO ARE POSITIVE JUST CHECK OUT TUXEDO LANE...AND THAT CHIC CLOTHING STORE BEARLY HAD BUSINESS..<<AN ACTUAL ATLANTA RESIDENT...
MTO; reporting on the same story is not plagarism. Copying what you said word for word is. You are an ignorant bunch of pricks. Some of you need to go back to 5th grade, when you first learn about plagarism.
And no newspaper is gonna give a GOSSIP site credit for a story. Especially if they got ACTUAL quotes, which makes their story more viable. WAY more viable than yours.
You are so stupid, I can hardly stand it.
And to call that man's mother a HO over a stupid story about an embarassing woman's house, is totally wrong, and I know you know your spot in hell is waiting.
Twits.
