Nene took to her Twitter seemingly calling out Bravo for harassment.
In her tweet, she said Stop harassing me, my business, and my family! Stop having me followed, stop blacklisting black women for speaking the truth, stop paying off attorneys to not file discrimination claims! STOP IT.

Nene has been outspoken about Bravo’s treatment of black women before. According to Vulture, she endorsed a petition to boycott Bravo amid claims of unfair treatment of Black talent behind the scenes.
On December 20, Leakes put out a request on Twitter asking to be put in touch with “someone that works in the US Department of Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in California, New York, or Georgia.”
On December 21 at 7:30 p.m. ET, Leakes had a discussion with the attorney Ben Crump on Instagram Live, captioned, “Racial Discrimination Against Black Women in the Entertainment Industry.”
In this discussion, Leakes clarified that she is calling for the Bravo boycott “because I think it’s a way for us to take a seat at the table and have a conversation with Bravo. What I want from Bravo is for them to sit down with me and my representatives and have a conversation.”
Leakes went on to describe examples of unequal treatment and discipline of Black and white talent while filming, telling Crump, “When my white counterpart was on my particular set, there was definitely a difference that I don’t think people always see, because it’s behind the scenes.
And if you start speaking about the shows across the board, then there is a great difference.”
Leakes said that white Housewives talent “come and go when they want to, they curse out people, they do whatever they want to do.
If we curse out anybody, we’re an ‘angry Black woman’ […] They can cuss all day long and they ‘just got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning’.”
With that said we do think the below interview is part of what Nene is reacting to today. Kandi was asked about Nene throwing shade at her new show Kandi and the Gang and she responded candidly to the host.
Watch below:
@PopCulture Please provide receipts… when has Nene mention Kandi? The lies y’all tell! Another attempt to gain viewers off @NeNeLeakes name! Rating are dry why talk about Nene! thanks @ATLien https://t.co/YxdY3Ab23N

If the interview is about her and her show when the interviewer brings up Nene she should respectfully shift the topic back to her show. @NeNeLeakes has been off RHOA for what 2 yrs and they still talking about her! Now that speaks volume!
