NeNe Leakes Accuses Lisa Vanderpump of Stealing Gay Bar ‘PUMP’ — Lisa Responds!
NeNe Leakes spilled the beans behind her beef with Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, Lisa Vanderpump on Friday — but Lisa is pleading innocent. The Real Housewives of Atlanta vet dished to Jenny McCarthy, spilling the tea on her SiriusXM show.
NeNe, 51, alleged that Lisa swooped in to purchase the expensive West Hollywood property for bar/eatery, Pump, after Nene asked her advice about opening her own biz in the same spot.
“We would ride down that West Hollywood area where all the gay bars are — and I have a large gay fan base — and I kept thinking ‘it would be so cool if I had a bar right in here somewhere,’” Nene said.
Nene revealed that she called Lisa to float her idea — and claimed that Lisa grabbed the spot for herself, after discouraging her to go forward.
“She said, ‘Oh darling, darling, it’s a piece of crap and they’re charging so much for it darling,’” Nene said. “She talked me off of it and then went and got it.”
