NeNe blogged:

"My time on Dancing With The Stars was positive, amazing, and a lot of hard work!  You gotta have work ethic to do this show – and that your girl has! Finishing 7th with no dance experience was more than I could have asked for!

The opportunity to perform in front of fifteen million viewers every week was a dream come true! The one thing I will take with me from this experience is hard work equals success! I hope I have inspired women all over the world! Whatever you are going through or you have been through, you too can make your dreams come true! Don’t you dare give up!" 

NeNe's dances:

Week 1: Cha Cha Cha

Week 2: Jive

Week 3: Rumba

Week 4: Jazz

Week 5: Foxtrot

Week 6: Salsa

Week 7: Argentine Tango

NeNe continued: 

"I want to first thank my husband, Gregg Leakes, who has been my rock week after week! My children, my dance partner Tony Dovolani, family, friends, and fans who pushed me, prayed for me, cheered for me, and voted for me!  I am absolutely nothing without you!

Bye Bye Dancing With The Stars and hello Cirque Du Soleil Zumanity!"

NeNe added on Instagram, "THANK U 4 ALL YOUR LOVE & SUPPORT! THIS HAS BEEN AN AMAZINGLY POSITIVE EXPERIENCES 4 ME & 4 THAT I’AM GRATEFUL! WHO KNEW I WOULD HANG N THERE 2 WEEKS BEFORE THE FINALE!" 

Oh please. NeNe was voted off fifth, behind Diana Nyad, Sean Avery, Cody Simpson, and Drew Carey. Billy Dee Williams withdrew for medical reasons – unfortunately we'll never know who was supposed to be eliminated that week. There are six stars left in the competition – and the finale is May 20.
