Yup, I'm talking NeNe from The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
I talked to NeNe yesterday while she was having dinner with The Real Housewives of New Jersey's embattled vixen, Danielle Staub.
NeNe had plenty to say about the Joisey girl dramarama…
"I think it was absolutely bananas that Teresa would turn over the table," NeNe said. "I think she went too far. It's not necessary to go turning over tables. I'm a dramatic chick, but I don't turn over tables."
As for Danielle's shady past from more than two decades ago coming back to haunt her, NeNe dares us all to take a good look in the mirror.
"For someone to criticize someone about something they've done in their 20s is absolutely bananas," she said. "Who hasn't made a mistake while they were in their 20s? Everyone had!"
"Most people do things that they are not proud of when they are in their 20s," she continued. "I've made mistakes. So have Teresa, Dina, Caroline and Danielle. Honey, I hope they don't pull apart my closet from when I was 21. There's a lot of stuff up in there."
Ah, NeNe. We sure have missed ya.
But Anderson Cooper NeNe fans rejoice! Sounds like we'll being seeing much more of her this summer, because the second season of Atlanta Housewives may start airing at the beginning of August.
