        This is what happens when you are evil. She tried to have Andy Cohen fired after the VanderPump Rules scandal. I am no Andy Cohen fan. But he was good to Laneithia. I never cared for her. Karma is her name and she will knock on your door at anytime.

        You’re absolutely correct. I’ve read it somewhere a few months back. The store was actually never hers. She used her fame to get it off of the ground and the official owner bailed out of the deal. They were horrible looking overpriced items to begin with. They would never sell anyway.

      You’re the closest person to the mark!

      I have researched the issue for over a year & a half & what I found is that Amazon & China are the only people to benefit from the pandemic.

      If people stopped shopping online you would sharp see a cure!

      If you look at the second world war when Japan invaded south west, south & southeast China & used prisoners of war from the US, UK Canada, Australia, Europe & China in research facilities testing viruses & diseases, which is all a matter of fact!

      however when the bombs on Nagasaki & Hiroshima by the Americans fell & Japan withdrew it’s forces from China, the people’s Republic of China was formed.

      They were a third world country left with first world technology of that time, because when the Japanese left China they failed to destroy all of the testing facilities.

      So the Republic of China had its hands on some of the testing information, only they had to send their people to American European UK Canadian & Australian universities to understand what they had.

      People should look at who benefits from the pandemic #Amazon #China

      they should also remember that you cannot put sanctions on a country when you’re buying products online!

      #DonaldTrump & #China

      But if people stopped shopping online you chop see this virus come to an end!

      I don’t think people should listen to conspiracy theorists, they should do their own research because the information is there!

      But any business owner or business will always retreat when there’s a crisis like this to protect their interests!

      Unfortunately it is always the smaller people who are the casualties of the war!

      In this case the pandemic is the war & as long as people continue to shop online businesses will close because they also don’t want to become the casualties of the war!

      Anyone with a business savvy mind will automatically shut that business to protect their interests!

      What people should do is stop buying online & you will see things returned to normal very quickly!

      Who caused all this will come out in the end!

      But people should look at who benefits from it!

      Nene did what everyone else is doing across the world & I would not listen to speculation on whether she went bankrupt or not, I would actually say that you close down because of the pandemic in the same way that other businesses have!

          @Damian Xavier, please elaborate on how stopping online shopping is going to stop pandemic and include some basic epidemiology in the explanation.

          “I don’t think people should listen to conspiracy theorists, they should do their own research because the information is there!”

          You do realize that is how conspiracy theories originate?

        Now you are building up theories and I’ll buy it if it you had substantial evidence and verification. Nene can take her products online too. The only problem is that consumers are not interested in buying fashion item as there is nowhere to wear them. Social activities have dwindled and you only buy clothes when you feel that there are events to wear them. Now her target market are a specific segment and right now they are not feeling her products in this climate. Hence, her business would suffer like others. So all this theory of not buying online is scaremongering. If we are restricted from moving around due to a pandemic, our options are limited. We buy online because we are on lockdown. So shops need to go online too.

      First of all Nene isn’t a shame of herself while she hating on ppl. So why should anyone give a damn about her. She’s the number 1 hater of all mankind, she’s the devil in angel clothing. She’s ruthless when it comes to others getting on top and trying to make a honest living. She is one self centered, evil individual. She’s actually soulless, she’s only out for herself. She can care less about other ppl feelings. She has gotten many housewives booted from the show. She actually took away their meal ticket and bragged about it. So why should anyone care about nene feelings, success & dreams? Nene can go straight to hell as far as I’m concerned. I have no sympathy for her at all. I will never support her in anything that she does!! Have a great life Nene!!!

    With Nene’s and Greg’s shady past as licensed individuals through the state of Georgia, I believe that AJC may have missed the real story which is the amount this business may have received compared to what it really made. As an independent contractor in healthcare documentation, I can tell you many, many business are so fking unethical right now. It has really exposed which companies I will deal with moving forward. Right now in most states, you only have to state what you made to receive a grant. And we are talking big money guys. Appropriate bank information is not required and the State of FL and Georgia are paying alot of money for dishonest business owners who will get dinged in the future audits. But with Nene’s crystal clear historical business ethics, I’m sure she would never participate.(Insert sarcasm) This is really hurting the good ethical businesses like my own who are just appreciative that anyone gives a crap right now.

    The pandemic has given some everything-in-their-own-minds business owners a way to save face. It’s no humiliation if the pandemic shut a business down. But, for at least two Bravolebrities, the shutdown has given them the EXCUSE to say, “I HAD to close because of the corona,” when they were struggling way before Covid-19 came along. If they get ANY kind of relief, they should pass it on to their employees… but that won’t happen.

    You guys can’t believe the number of bots and illiterate Nene fans who were trying to be first time commenters today whining about how mean you all are to poor Nene.

    I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP!

    The recurrent theme was not to mean to poor Nene who is going through a bad time. AGAIN, NOT MAKING THIS UP!

    Do her fans actually watch the show and know that is all Nene does on the show is rub salt in everyone else’s wounds? I have to believe these are all just bots. No one is that stupid.

      Could they all be Nene? I’m guessing she has some time on her hands.

        Did you not see the it must be bots because “No one is that stupid”? OH, WAIT! You’re right! It’s Nene you’re talking about! In that case we can take off the “No” and change it to “Only.” ONLY ONE is that stupid!

      I remember years ago when Bravo was actually fooled into believing that Nene had all of these social media fans and Bravo kept negotiating with her because of that. That was before bots and the ability to purchase social media followers came to light. In 2020 that strategy is gone. Nene will say some crap on Twitter and her fans would comment in her favor and she will retweet so that Bravo can see it. Now when she does that Bravo is seeing what I see I believe, a decline in fans and obvious bots. Bye Nene you played yourself.

      I think the bots are all of Bryson;s Baby Mamas, all of NeNe’s “Bridemaids” and all the random, fresh out the lockup ladies off the street at the Animal Print Brunch.

        “Bri-may” not bridemaids. Nene does not know when and how to pluralize.

    I REALLY wish you would put up a post of all the (mostly illiterate, I bet) “I ❤️ Nene!” posts one of these days. We all could use a good laugh. Maybe take it down in a day or two.

      @ Nanette, good idea..

      TT you remember how you use to post Nene’s fan’s comments and we will just laugh and have a good time. So fun! The comments were soooo hilarious. And Nene would actually retweet them. I would be embarrassed for that to be my fan base, but not Nene. lmao
