This arrives after Lisa Vanderpump takes to her Instagram account to issue a statement of her own, in which she condemns racism and unequal treatment among others.

AceShowbiz - NeNe Leakes joins the list of Bravo personalities who weigh in on the firing of "Vanderpump Rules" stars Stassi Schroeder and Kristen Doute. In an Instagram post on Tuesday, June 9, NeNe commented on the decision that the network made about Stassi and Kristen over their past racist behaviors.

"Well alrighty then!" NeNe wrote underneath Bravo's post of a picture featuring its statement about it letting go Stassi, Kristen, Max Boyens and Brett Caprioni. "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star went on to say, "Now we have a few more questions to ask about in other areas where there's a major difference. Should we talk privately or publicly."

In the comment section of the post, people dropped some names that Bravo should look into. "See also: Kelly Dodd, Brandi Redmond, Jax Taylor, Luann de Lesseps, Kathryn Dennis," one person wrote. Echoing the sentiment, one other fan commented, "Remove Kelly & Jax too."

Meanwhile, some others thought that firing Stassi and Kristen was a little bit too much. "This is a bit much. What they did was wrong yes. But it was all from years ago. The hate and cancel culture in this world lately is amazing! I think there's more to the story with faith and to be honest her coming out with this now and not 2 years ago when it happens makes her look like she's trying to get her next 15 min of fame," one user said.

Calling it a "trash decision," someone else blasted the network, "Jumping on a #blmbandwagon This took place long ago and until now it was 'ok' until it was cool to be ok. Not to mention they didn't do this to [Faith Stowers] out of racism. They did it because of actions she took on the show. Not because she was black. Horrible decision as far as Stassi and Kristen. The boys said things also long ago. So actions take years ago can come back and haunt you only when there's a movement?? And only then?! This is utter BS to ruin people's lives over this."

Prior to this, Lisa Vanderpump issued a statement condemning racism and unequal treatment among others. Making use of Instagram on Wednesday, June 10, the 59-year-old first explained that it was necessary for her to stay quiet until decisions had been made on the issues. Claiming that she now "can freely speak from the heart," she then stated," I love and adore our employees and I am deeply saddened by some of the lack of judgment that has been displayed."

She further insisted that she has "always been an equal rights activist and ally," before declaring, "I condemn all forms of cruelty, racism, homophobia, bigotry and unequal treatment. We've never tolerated it in the workplace or our lives." She added that viewers "only see a fraction of our employees on the show."

The firing of the four "Vanderpump Rules" stars came after former castmate Faith Stowers spoke out against Schoeder and Doute. In a chat with "Floribama Shore" star Candace Rice, Faith claimed that the pair reported her to the police for a crime she did not do just because she was a black woman. Both Stassi and Kristen have since issued an apology for their action.
