The rumors that Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes taking over Joan Rivers spot on E! is quickly becoming reality but the Fashion Police Unhappy With NeNe Leakes.

She’s readying for her stint on Broadway in Cinderella [Nov 25th trough January 3, 2015], but since the legendary comedian Joan Rivers has passed E execs are gunning to have NeNe Leakes in Joan’s seat instead of Kathy Griffith.

Word is, NeNe has always claimed her dream job is to also host a talk show and rumor has it she may be very close to making that a reality.

She wrote on Twitter hinting to her possible new gig:

In fact, Andy Cohen is pushing NeNe to take the job and according to reports E! executives they’re thrilled by the idea, but the show remaining stars are reportedly NOT happy about the possible new addition.

Here is the drop via Life & Style Magazine:

According to the source, the execs “love” the idea of having NeNe since “fans really respond well to her.” Now, the only problem is getting the co-hosts to like her as well.

“Melissa thinks it’s a huge mistake and Kelly and Giuliana think it’s an outrage…They’re afraid that it will become the NeNe Show,” the insider added.“Melissa just doesn’t think NeNe should be in the running and definitely doesn’t think she even comes close to filling her mother’s shoes.”

Meanwhile, Bravo’s Andy Cohen is pushing NeNe to take the job. “He thinks it’s a great idea and E! is listening,” the insider tells Life & Style.
