Ne Ne Leakes is Rich, BITCH!  The Real Housewives of Atlanta star will reportedly receive $1 Million from Bravo for Season 6 of RHOA.

"NeNe is the one viewers watch. She knows that, Bravo knows that and that's why they gave her a raise," a source close to production revealed to Radar Online.

According to Radar Online the all of the ladies of RHOA, including Porsha Stewart, renewed their contracts prior to the airing for the Season 5 Reunion.

However, Ne Ne's situation is a little bit different, "She likes being on the show. NeNe is really happy with the New Normal and Glee, where she can be a real actress," the source told Radar Online. "But she knows her bread and butter comes from Bravo and that's why she's coming back, 'cause she can't turn the money down!"

We wonder how Ne Ne's co-stars are reacting?

The Radar Online source said, "Everyone gets it, NeNe is the favorite, but they're still jealous, of course. They wish they could earn what NeNe makes because they don't think she would be nearly as popular without fighting with them."

Ne Ne is having a great year.  She and ex-husband, current fiancé Greg Leakes are tying the knot for a second time this summer in Atlanta, Ne Ne and RHOA co-star Kim Zolziak are BFF's again, and Ne Ne's "The New Normal" show is doing well in the ratings department. 

With this new contract on top of her "Trump checks," will Linnethia "Ne Ne" Monique Johnson-Leakes make the Forbes list?
