Former The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Claudia Jordan is calling Nene Leakes "ungracious" after sharing petition to boycott Bravo.
Claudia joined the most popular show of its franchise during its seventh season. She came on the show as a result of her friendship with Kenya Moore and later became friendly with the other ladies. Although she got along with most of the cast, she did have a couple of confrontations. Claudia actually had some beef with RHOA OG, Nene, while they were on one of the cast trips in Puerto Rico. Could their be some lingering harms feelings?
During an episode of Claudia's Fox Soul’s show Cocktails with Queens with actress and co-host, Vivica A. Fox, they weighed in on Nene putting out a call to boycott against Bravo and its parent company, NBC Universal, reports Cheat Sheet. Vivica said, “I don’t like for people to be such sour grapes. If you’re going to move on, move on.” The actress then noted that Nene has returned to RHOA before and praised her for her contribution to the show. She also added that relationships are important in business and believes her boycotting the show is going to turn people off to giving her job opportunities in the future. Claudia then chimed in agreeing with Vivica's statement, adding that her opinion isn’t personal and has nothing to do with her appearance on season seven of the show. They both believe Nene needs to move on from her time on RHOA and to "stop the bullsh*t."
Claudia also praised Nene for what she has accomplished since joining the show in 2008. “You accomplished a great thing. Be proud of that! And if you’re gonna leave, leave knowing ‘I did that sh*t. I did it.’ and move on because other networks are watching you,” she added. She also warned Nene about other networks not wanting to work with her after hearing how she has dragging Bravo recently. “Be gracious and move on,” Claudia concluded. On December 20, Nene called for a boycott against Bravo after revealing she’s been the victim of racial discrimination and has been mistreated by the network, urging her fans to turn off their TV's. She later shared a petition her social media that is aimed at Bravo and to report discriminatory treatment against Black women. Later, she got on Instagram Live with attorney Benjamin Crump where the two discussed how she is not asking for a permanent boycott, but is hoping for a private meeting with the network about inequalities behind the scenes.
Claudia is hoping Nene will get over her bad feelings towards Bravo and move on to bigger and better opportunities.
