NeNe Leakes Wants a Love Interest!

Plus, will she return to Glee?

By Lauren Metz



NeNe Leakes is on the hunt for a new man. Or at least her character is.

"It’s not ‘the gay show.’ It’s about love, it’s about comedy, it’s about family," the Atlanta Housewife chats with Hollywood.com about her role on The New Normal. "We talk about current issues, things that are happening right now." And what does she hope will happen right now? "I’d like to see Rocky have a love interest, hopefully. I’ll talk to the writers; hopefully they will find a love for Rocky."

Speaking of Rocky, NeNe admits that she didn’t initially envision herself playing the part. "My first impression of this character is that it is for a white lady. The first time I read it, that’s what I thought," the Louboutin lover continues telling the site. As for the rest of the season, she promises, "You’ll definitely see Rocky be a part of The New Normal more often and she definitely will change and we’ll see more family members of Rocky’s."

What about seeing more of Coach Roz, NeNe? "We don’t have a lot of time right now to squeeze Glee in, but we’re hoping. Glee is just across the parking lot from The New Normal, so all they gotta do is call me and I can just walk over there."
