RHOA just lost it's biggest star Nene Leakes. Love her or hate her, she made the show and had a huge entourage with her on the show.
With the addition of Kim "Tootie" Fields, possibly Lena Chenier and dancer Tammy and the not yet confirmed departure of Claudia Jordan, will the highest rated series from Bravo survive in season 8?
Love her or hate her, Nene Leakes was unequivocally the biggest star on the show. It really depends. Lots of shows come out of huge cast shakeups just fine... But lots more shows lose the epicenter of the show and are never the same. Only time will tell if the RHOA base sticks with the show, but that really depends on the dynamic of the new cast and if they can have someone as enigmatic as Nene rise up during this season.
