NeNe Leakes, Wendy Williams, tears into co-stars

This should come as no surprise: Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes ripped into her haters on The Wendy Williams show this week. The "very rich" reality star called her co-stars "boring," saving her sharpest words for nemesis Sheree Whitfield:

"Sheree is excited about people calling her name," Leakes responded to Williams, when questioned about her alleged bullying. "Nobody really knows she's on the show. She's boring!"

But straight-talking Williams, who is a personal friend of NeNe's, had some blunt words in return. She called Leakes "defensive," and told the larger-than-life star to her face that she is "mean-spirited."

Leakes blames her tough exterior on the growing number of haters around her, ever since she found fame on television. "It is very difficult. You can't trust a lot of people. Your girlfriends all change and your family is now against you. It's like unreal,” she explained. “You can't trust people. You have these walls up.”

The mood changed when Williams questioned Leakes about her rumored new man, John Kolaj, founder of the Famous Famiglia pizza franchise. "That's something to discuss somewhere else, not this couch," giggled NeNe, admitting only that Kolaj is a "business partner."
