THIS was low key PIVOTAL.
I saw it from last season when the leak about her complaining about Kenya got out.
The confessional where she claims that Kenya knows not to eff with her sounded like a woman that KNEW she was already effed with and didn't want to admit lt.
FACE it Nene, Kenya got you.
Kenya is the only one formidable enough to go against Nene because she is crazy as a fox.
Phaedra is smarter but for some reason she can't win against Nene.
Kandi just isn't quick enough.
Nene KNOWS that Kenya is playing her role better than Nene has the past two seasons and is threatened by her because Kenya doesn't even have to do much to mastermind she just allows Nene to hang herself with her bothered attitude regarding Nene.
She'll play nice to show that she's the bigger person and allow Nene to trip over herself being SO nasty and SO rude
as she digs herself a deeper hole.
Twirl bested her and when Nene tried to get rid of Kenya it didn't work. People love to hate Kenya and are starting to grow to like her more little by little and all this "redemption" is slowly turning the tide.
Nene knows that Kenya is the only alpha female that is smart enough to get Nene's goad.
Kim was good but she ran off at the mouth.
Sheree was a good reader but she wasn't smart.
Kenya is intelligent, crazy as a fox, and knows how to play Nene like a fiddle and Nene doesn't realize it until after the fact. Even when she realizes it in the moment, she can't keep herself composed enough to checkmate Kenya.
I.e. the charity - Nene easily could have bested Kenya by showing up being fake gracious and shading her a little bit for kicks and she showed her behind. SHe's was Mad with peter because he called her on it. Peter knew what kenya was doing and disappointed that Nene allowed Kenya to trump her.
ie. pillowgate - Nene went out of her way to get Kenya to look bad and it backfired and many people looked bad.
i.e. tavern - Faking friendships and then next encounter serving "I don't know her" teas made Kenya look like the better person
i.e. the pow wow before therapy - not inviting Kenya made her look petty. she did throw out a good reason/excuse since the root of Phaedra/Kenya/Mr. chocolate gate was raw but then you could still invite Kenya and not Phaedra or vice versa...Kenya used that in the therapy session
i.e. therapy session - Nene made no sense with Kenya and Kenya looked better.
I called it from last season that Nene doesn't like that Kenya is formidable enough to overtake her slowly but surely.
Now you have Kenya as Alpha female (A) with Cynthia, Claudia, Demitria
Nene as Alpha female (B) with teenage minded Porsha, Strategic but not all in Phaedra (see next episode when she includes Kenya at her event)
Then Kandi goes with the flow.
Team A is more loyal and supportive of each other than Team B which are strategizing to cause tension with Kandi and Phaedra to where Kandi is no longer closer to B than A but more in the middle.
Nene had these girls in check as the HBIC season 6...but Kenya's plan has shifted the game.
Whew, thesis teas.
Kandi did NOT attend. Nene Leakes is NOT a Happy CamperHere is what my Tamara Tattles exclusive source sent me:
