Kim Zolciak and NeNe Leakes: On the Way Out?

at .

They're sort of friends again these days, but Kim Zolciak and NeNe Leakes are still creating controversy for The Real Housewives of Atlanta.

According to various sources, producers are considering replacing both spoiled brats, as "things with NeNe and Kim have been intense" on and off the set.

For example, insiders claim Kim and NeNe are demanding bigger paychecks from Bravo for a new season of the series, leaving producers "fed up with their diva-esque requests." We can't blame them.

A source adds that Bravo is aware of the risk it might take if it axes two of its most popular (or, at least, well-known) stars,  but "feels it is about the franchise as a whole and won’t let one person stop it.”

Reportedly, the network is actually in the process of talking with other wealth women in the area that could fill the void left by Zolciak and Leaks' departure.

What do you think, readers? Do you wanna see these women go? Do you even believe reports such as these, or are they merely more ways for the franchise to make headlines?
