Is NeNe Leakes Freaking Out Her 'Apprentice' Co-Stars?

We know The Real Housewives of Atlanta's NeNe Leakes had her share of in-your-face moments with Kim Zolciak in the past. And Dwight. And Gregg. And... well, you get the picture.

Now her Celebrity Apprentice co-star Niki Taylor admits to Access Atlanta that initially "[NeNe] came on a little bit strong." But soon the supermodel came to realize that first impressions can be deceiving and gushes, "There's a very sweet side to NeNe." Aw, shucks.

Donald Trump's boardroom will get its latest round of star power on March 6 when Gary Busey, Meat Loaf, La Toya Jackson, Mark McGrath, David Cassidy, Dionne Warwick, Star Jones, Lisa Rinna, Lil Jon, and more flash their business savvy. How will NeNe size up against the competition? "She works hard," Niki promises. "She brings it."

Niki doesn't hint at how long the resident 'Wife sticks around Trump Tower, but she's not picturing NeNe as a behind-the-desk girl. "I told her she needs her own show."

Maybe, but for now, NeNe has her fellow ATL Housewives to contend with -- the ladies go toe-to-toe on February 13 at the Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion.
