17 Life Lessons We Learned from GIFS of Cinderella Star NeN…

NeNe Leakes is the figurehead of Bravo's hugely popular and shamefully addicting Real Housewives franchise—she, of course, is the Queen Bee of Atlanta. But beyond RHOA, NeNe is a bonafide TV star thanks to roles and appearances on Glee, Dancing with the Stars, The Apprentice and The New Normal. And beginning November 25, Leakes will be a Broadway headliner.
