RHOA’s Nene Leakes tried her hand at stand-up and it went south rather fast. Saturday night, Nene Leakes was performing to a crowd in Oakland, and apparently some didn’t think she was very funny. Leakes was being heckled, and one woman yelled something that obviously got under Nene’s skin because she lashed out. In response, Leakes yelled back that she hoped the woman gets raped by her Uber driver on her way home. While it is unknown what the woman said to Nene, her reaction deserved a bit of a side eye. YIKES!
The promotion for the “Girls Night Out For Laughs“ made it sound like Nene Leakes was just going to dish some Hollywood dirt for a few laughs at the expense of reality television. Leakes said that before going back to join the RHOA she was ready to spill the tea on “those thirsty housewives, those dusty girls.”
Leakes hosted the event at the Paramount Theatre in Oakland with Loni Love, Tiffany Haddish, Adele Givens, Melanie Comarcho, and Hope Flood. Leakes explained that the evening was going to be lighthearted and funny, obviously not anticipating the heckling and the controversy.
“I’m gonna be onstage with a lot of fun, fun women that night — Loni Love of ‘The Real,’ Tiffany Haddish of ‘Girls Trip,’ Adele Givens of ‘The Queens of Comedy,’ Melanie Comarcho and Hope Flood — gossiping and talking a whole lotta s—.”
Nene had also promised that she was going to roast some of the members of her new E! Network family including the Kardashian and Jenner clans. Leakes explained that even the president, whom she met while appearing on Celebrity Apprentice, won’t be safe from her brand of humor.
“Then there’s our bald-headed president, Donald Trump. Yes, that toupee that’s running the White House, honey.”
Leakes parting words held significance as she hoped that the event will tour the country. Considering that the Oakland event ended with Leakes yelling back at a heckler, there seems to be little chance that ‘Girls Nite Out For Laughs’ will catch on.
“I’d love to see ‘Girls Nite Out For Laughs’ become a huge success across the country. I want to make people laugh and have an amazing time.”
Do you think NeNe’s response to the heckler was a bit much? Check out the video footage of the incident below:
