Radar Online reports that NeNe has renewed her contract for RHOA‘s 12th season by inking a deal worth $2.85 million. This is in addition to the already $2.75 she currently gets for appearing on the show. The deal comes at a very strange time as NeNe has been accused of assaulting one of the show’s cameramen. But apparently that’s the kind of dramatic interaction Bravo wants to keep around because instead of getting fired NeNe is now making more than all of her fellow housewives, including those who have been staples on various other franchises.
With her pay hike in the bank, NeNe was on track to remain the reigning highest paid housewife on the network.
Bravo forked out more cash for NeNe than Real Housewives of New York City OGBethenny Frankel, the OG from RHOCVicki Gunvalson and both Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills!
It looks like there’s big business in displaying your life in front of millions of viewers, which NeNe is definitely not a stranger to. One thing’s for sure, with this pay increase you can best believe there will be an increase in craziness as well when the RHOA 12th season starts later this year. Congrats NeNe.
