Major: NeNe Leakes Sitcom Gets Picked Up

Published: Tuesday 8th May 2012 by TGJ

If NeNe Leakes was “very rich” before, she’s poised to become a whole lot richer.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta star today announced that ‘The New Normal’ – the sitcom pilot she shot with Glee creator Ryan Murphy – has been snapped up by NBC.

Details below…

As previously reported, the show revolves around a blended family of a gay couple and their surrogate. Co-created by Ali Adler, the series will see Leakes play the heavily recurring role of Rocky.

Polarising as Ms. Leakes is, it’s important to give credit where it’s due; she really is turning her “reality” water into a fine wine. Celebrity Apprentice, Glee, and now this. More power to her!
