NeNe Leakes Lands Major Sitcom Role

Published: Tuesday 27th Mar 2012 by TGJ

If she’s “very rich b*tch”, NeNe Leakes is set to become all sorts of wealthy.

Why?

The Real Housewives of Atlanta star  has snagged a major role in a new sitcom!

Leakes, 44, has been starring in the current season of Glee and seems to have impressed creator Ryan Murphy, who has cast her in his upcoming new show.

The NBC comedy pilot is titled ‘The New Normal’ and revolves around a blended family of a gay couple and their surrogate. Co-created by Ali Adler, the show will see Leakes play the heavily recurring role of Rocky. {Source}

If there’s one thing certain about “reality”, is that it’s as uncertain as a genre comes. So, more power to Ms. Leakes for building her brand while the going’s good.
