Stateside goat charmers were in for a treat this morning as actress/reality TV star Nene Leakes showed off her lamb chops singing chops for audience members of ‘The View.’
As fans know, the diva “ditched” her claim to fame as part of the saucy group of ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ to try her hand at Broadway in ‘Cinderella: The Musical’ and other forthcoming television ventures.
Taking to ABC this morning to give viewers a sample what they were missing, get into Miss Leakes demonstrating her vocal prowess – a bid sure to win the approval of Rihanna, Trey Songz, and Jussie Smollett fans everywhere:

it’s called vibrato Nene is the queen of TV….AND VOCALS
She slayed that! TGJ fall back! it’s BROADWAY not THE GRAMMYS ! She’s not selling an ALBUM like the ARTIST you named! She is GETTING INTO CHARACTER! Broadway ACTORS AND ACTRESSES aren’t POLISHED SINGERS! They are DRAMATIC and Skilled CONFIDENT performers! NENE MY BLACK SISTER KILL THE STAGE!! Proud Fan
@You Tried, I find your statement absolutely ridiculous. Broadway performers are usually incredibly talented singers and actors who have perfected and fine-tuned their craft for years. People who are invited to the Grammys to perform like Taylor, Katy, Britney couldn’t possibly do what the artists on Broadway do. And they do it without lip-synching yet still sounding like a studio recording. Congrats to NeNe for capitalizing on her reality show roots but to discredit the performers on Broadway by saying she only has to be capable at singing is an insult to everyone who actually worked hard and made their dreams come true with actual talent. And for those Broadway performers who aren’t polished singers always have the acting chops to pull through any performance. I’ve yet to see NeNe do anything but shout her lines in a false delusion of emoting.
@DD
Thanks for your long review of my comment! You are correct on some levels as far the incrediblely talented actors and actressss on Broadway and all their hard work they’ve put in! However BROADWAY and any other musical (A stage performer myself) has nothing to do with how well you sing! It’s about how into depth you are with your CHARACTER! To shade RICHBITCCH NeNeLeaks is very RIDICULOUS of you speaking that she’s been on Broadway before and also on a HIT series tv show! Honey if being on reality TV can get you on BROADWAY one of the most popular TV shows in the 00’s how come she stands as one of the only ones if not THE ONLY ONE who can at this FEAT to her Wikapedia page??!!
Ones again thanks for your review!
@You Tried, you’re confusing my response to your comment as a review. And I take your calling it that as giving you some false sense of superiority, which you can have because it’s obvious you need it. But I fully stand by what I said not only about Broadway performers but also that in Glee all NeNe played was a loud-mouth character just as she did on The New Normal. With her it’s always just more of the same. However, I do respect that she took her role as a loud-mouth character on a reality show and propelled a pretty lofty career out of mining that same old tired terrain. My issue was with your need to discredit studied and learned performers in an effort to justify NeNe’s alleged talent and opportunities others with genuine talent are still struggling to receive while NeNe, once again, has gotten there off the cliche of the loud, black, finger-snapping, neck-swerving performance that makes most people cringe. Good for her in being able to ride that to the bank, but let’s not pretend like she’s so dynamic an actress or singer (which is what you implied in your original post), and please don’t diminish other actually talented people for not selling out to get there.
Dead
Yes honey sje made me wet
Tasha’s throwing shade, but I still have yet to see what David looks like. I’m pressed and annoyed at the same time. Poor me!
I think they may have asked MrsLeaks for an interview and she may have declined lmao TGJ ur the real MVP of THIRST! Grab you some juice
He’s very cute.
I swear yall stay lying on David. I follow him on instagram boo and her looks like a dark skin whinnie the pooh child. I don’t even think he can grow a beard. These pressed bottoms always madT.
Girl?! You’re a damn liar! He is cute. Let’s see your picture so we can compare and contrast.

LMFAOOO I’m dead ????????
You go Nene! So happy for her and all her success and opportunities. And she can actually carry a tune, good for her!
Lmfao at the pic of the goat. Sam and David are so damn shady.
It was Rashad 😆 that Gurl has got kii kii’s for days hunnie
SHADE!!! LOL
Nene vocally slays rih ha
????????????????????????????
My farts “slays” Ciara vocally, so hush.
She was good and then toward the end it seemed a little flat and like a struggle, nothing a little vocal training can’t fix. You go NENE!!! Kiii I’ll always remember Nene for that shade she threw at letoya jackson “You just sit over there and keep looking like casper the ghost!” ????????????????
Wow! Nene sounded greattt!
fail
KIIIII. That vibrato tho —— ????????????????????????
So we aren’t going to mention that RHOA ratings went back up? Oh ok
damn i used to live for the shade on this website, but its not shade anymore, god damn!! y’all are just mean, emberassing and ruthless for no reason. like I’m completely embarrassed to be on this site now.
She sounded ok, but her weave is slaying me
She seemed a little nervous and on the spot low key seems like her an joy don’t like one another.
It was absolutely horrendous, Nene. Do you have a singing teacher? Get a lawyer and sue them. And your mouth is far, far too big when you sing. I mean, it was like looking into a cave. I’ve never seen anything so huge in my life.
This woman sounded like a goat singing on an electric fence. That pic is spot on
Why did they include a picture of Rihanna with a microphone? Riri has nothing to do with Nene or this post…
I MISS HER ON THE SHOW, ITS CORNY NOW
LmaOoooo! !! I hadn’t watch anything yet! But the picture of the goat had me ROOOOOLLING!!! SMH LOL. TGJ a fool for that lol. But as for her voice tho SMH. Never watched any of those house wife shows but stick to your day job. She killed me with the facial expressions too lmao, if I had looked at this video on mute, I would have thought she low key belted soemthing.
Lmao she should stick to reality tv
Hi Mark666
so, according to ThatRihannaPussyJuice, Nene is in the Rihanna league? guys, you half-educated nasty bishes, can you be even p******? actually Rihanna is the way more superior vocalist than this poetic heroine.
*even more p_u_s_s_i_e_s
It’s Broadway people, her voice was fine.
I’ll say that for a amateur singer she done the basics right. Not over sing and wasn’t off key.
Was a lot better than I expected to be fair
