Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes is ready to move on from the show that made her famous and her first stop is Broadway's Cinderella. According to Radar Online, NeNe can't wait to leave RHOA and focus on her other endeavors besides the drama that comes with the show.

"NeNe will be taking over in the Cinderella production around Thanksgiving, and will play it until New Year's Eve. She is super excited to be playing the iconic role, and knows her fans will show up in droves," a source told the site. "This is another attempt by NeNe to continue to develop her brand beyond the RHOA."

NeNe's brand includes a successful Home Shopping Network clothing line that sold out when it debuted. She is also developing shows under her new production company, NeNe Leakes Entertainment.

As MStars News reported yesterday, the other housewives are sure to be fuming over her reported $1.5 million salary to stay on RHOA.

"The only reason NeNe came back was for the hefty paycheck," according to Radar.

The money had to be the driving force for her return, especially since she has been dropping hints on social media she was ready to leave the show. On Sept. 28, she tweeted:

One person who will definitely not be rooting NeNe on is RHOA nemesis Kenya Moore. She recently told the New York Post's Page Six that she won't be at NeNe's opening night because they don't get along.

"I don't have a relationship with NeNe," the Atlanta housewife said. "NeNe is on an island by herself somewhere with her attitude."

When asked about NeNe's role as the evil stepmother, Kenya had one last jab:

"It's perfect casting," she joked ... we think.

Shady, shady, shady!
