2014 ‘RHOA’ NeNe Leakes Quits; Porsha Williams, Kenya Moore, Kandi Burruss and Cynthia Bailey Demand Raise in Salaries? [GOSSIP UPDATE]

Bravo reportedly has its hands full trying to convince the Season 7 Real Housewives of Atlanta cast to sign their contracts. Queen bee NeNe Leakes confirmed a few weeks ago that the network had asked all the ladies to return, even reunion recap brawlers Porsha Williams and Kenya Moore. But the Dancing with the Stars alum isn't so sure she wants to come back. The Glee guest star recently revealed that if she didn't get a significant raise in salary, that she would quit. And what's worse for Bravo, the rest of the Housewives are also rumored to be holding out for more money as well, even the mild-mannered Kandi Burruss and Cynthiana Bailey.

Real Housewives of Atlanta's NeNe Leakes isn't exactly shy, when it comes to talking about some of the problems she sees with the "toxic" work environment the she feels Bravo encourage on the shows.

NeNe told Hollywood Life, that it was just a matter of time before someone got assaulted on the RHOA set, after all that is what the producers are shooting for on the show:

"I think that Kenya's great for the show if that's what they're [sic] looking for: the dark side... They're looking for negativity, fighting, provoking, delusionalness.

"If that's what they're looking for than she's 100 percent excellent for the show."

But when NeNe spoke to Life & Style it seemed that she is willing to deal with the BS if Bravo was willing to compensate Leakes appropriately for it:

"Never continue in a job that you don't enjoy...I don't know exactly what I am doing.

"All of us deserve a raise...I haven't asked for more money, but I damn sure plan to!"

According to Wet Paint, the rest of the Real ladies seemingly agreed with NeNe's financial assessment and are now also demanding more money:

"It was touch and go for a bit, but now we know for sure that all of the sixth season ladies have been invited back-- though they're rumored to be holding out for salary raises."

If Andy Cohen is smart he will give these ladies what they want, before things turn violent once again.
