Disclaimer: I am hit or miss with Nene. Some seasons I like her, other seasons I don’t, which usually depends on who she is “friends” with during that season…. so I am neither defending her or putting her down. Just my thoughts over the years.
Nene clearly did not like her face once she saw it on tv, so she changed it, a couple times. I’m ok with that. I give her props for taking steps to improving her life while she’s still alive. So many people are unhappy with their looks, careers, relationships, and get stuck and do nothing to change it before it’s too late. Let her enjoy herself feeling beautiful.
Also, her mid section is not HUGE. It’s the dress. Take away the fringe and you’re left with spanked mid section.
It looks like it is morphed into a Cynthia Bailey. Imo
I also agree with the mid section as well. Perhaps its the garment itself.
It is pretty but I see a farmer like that and think this little sucker id’s going to catch on everything.
If Big Bird mated with a pink flamingo, this would be the result.
Last week, I watched the first season marathon and it was nice to see the original faces and lack of egos.
Photo chop suey. The left hand should have grabbed a hank of that pseudo hair and extended the arm fully. That’s the proper way to display a shrunken head with a swollen ego.
The coloring doesn’t bother me — you could do that way before Photoshop with lighting, or dodging and burning. It’s the FORM of the right hand that bugs me. The Walking Dead crew made a more realistic hand out of a piece of chicken last week.
I’m all for photoshop fails, but this isn’t a photoshop fail. It’s called lighting and shadows. Her hand is behind her body, which is blocking her hand from the direct light that is being aimed at Nene, making it appear darker.
As a person with a background working as a photographic artist I agree it’s a lighting issue. Honestly I looked at this picture for almost 5 minutes and then had to come to the comments to figure out what was wrong with it, lol
Her head looks like it was photoshopped onto that body. Doesn’t even look like the NeNe I remember. I can’t imagine being to self-obsessed, but I guess that’s show biz.
Her back hand doesn’t even look like a hand. Her face doesn’t look like her face, yet she looks wider than she actually is. It’s all rather confusing to the eye.
If I was four hundred pounds lighter, I’d love the dress though. 🙂
That dress looks highly flammable. I’d be afraid to be around smokers and candles. Does it come in flame retardant material? Am I allowed to say “retardant?”
Lol. This is why she hates Cynthia and Kenya, both women love their hue and melanin, celebrate it to the highest power and are beyond gorgeous. Standing next to them, I would feel some type of way if I looked like Linnethia and had no self worth or self love. Praying for her to find the light…the right light.
Looks like Nono photoshopped the entire body. She dies not have wide shoulders like this. She is 5/10 at least so those are not her knees. How dreadful!
No matter what Nene does, she still looks… Anyway, she’s starting to look like a powdery, clownish, bad caricature of Cynthia. I wish she had kept her original self. That Nene was a lot more attractive.
I get what y’all are saying about photoshop, it’s too much, all the time, everywhere, nothing is real etc. It’s completely weird to wonder what’s been changed in photos. I hate photos of myself because I don’t see in a photo how I feel inside (I photograph horribly, always have and or maybe I really am not attractive) but I rarely make it through a day without a compliment on my appearance so I feel confident and comfortable in my skin but, when I see a px I 99.9% of the time cringe and feel insecure so I get why everyone tries to “fix” their perceived imperfections. I can only imagine the pressure even at Nene’s level of celebrity to feel comfortable/happy about their looks on SM. Nuf about insecurities and imperfections!
I usually hate Nene’s wigs, they often seem too big/thick and the colors seem so harshly yellow. I like this hair on her, it’s has a flattering density and flattering colors against her skin. This color pink looks lovely next to all her shades whether real or “fixed”. I don’t think I’d ever wear this fringy/puffy, short style, I’m 5’10” too and it would make me feel like pink big bird…
Wait so we’re done being nice? I thought we were trying to start the season of giving with being charitable? It looks like shadows to me, however I applaud everything she’s still doing because I would be a basket case if my plate was as full as her’s. Makes me wonder how many dragging her are even married or has had to watch a spouse go through what Gregg is going through?
I don’t know, I think Nene looks great. They recently aired season 1, and I thought she looked great then, too. I loved her original nose, then did NOT like her first nose job at all. But she’s fixed that, and I think she looks fantastic now. She’s 50ish now, right? I hope to look that good!
You have TWO HANDS, Nene. #Colorism
Her mid section is HUGE, if I was her that is what I would photoshop.
And the person in that pic looks nothing like the Nene I was introduced to years ago. I wonder if she even recognizes herself in the mirror anymore…

I love that dress Or shirt. Or whatever it is. I want one.
I’m in line behind you!

Her outfit and shoes are cute, but the rest of her not so much ? It’s sad she changed her face so much. She’s unrecognizable.

Amen
How in the world did she forget to lighten the other hand? LOL I don’t have a clue how photoshop works but wow that is a huge difference.

Her face looks like a Braxton face. Same doctor?
Yep. She has Tamar’s messed up face.

I agree
Also the underside is usually lighter than the top side.

The outfit she has on is cute. Think it’s the lighting not photoshop. This is a nothing burger
Nothing cute about this-it’s Nene.
Her head looks like it was photoshopped onto that body. Doesn’t even look like the NeNe I remember. I can’t imagine being to self-obsessed, but I guess that’s show biz.
I love the outfit! But that sure doesn’t look like Nene any more.
Luckily for her, the outfit is cute enough to distract most from the bad photoshop edit!
Usually the backside of an African Americans hand is darker than the palms… just saying before there’s anymore hating.
Her back hand doesn’t even look like a hand. Her face doesn’t look like her face, yet she looks wider than she actually is. It’s all rather confusing to the eye.

Isn’t Photoshopping normal? I do it
That dress looks highly flammable. I’d be afraid to be around smokers and candles. Does it come in flame retardant material? Am I allowed to say “retardant?”
/giggles
I am gonna go out on a limb and say that Nene is recognisable to me in that photo
I am no expert either but I think her lighter skin tone tone could be put down to some contouring
But yes, her face has changed dramatically over the years !
Lol. This is why she hates Cynthia and Kenya, both women love their hue and melanin, celebrate it to the highest power and are beyond gorgeous. Standing next to them, I would feel some type of way if I looked like Linnethia and had no self worth or self love. Praying for her to find the light…the right light.
I think nene looks GREAT! If you have the money – nothing wrong w spending it on yourself to look and feel good!!!
LMAOOOOOOO smh.
