NeNe Leakes I'm Taking Martha Stewart Down!!!
NeNe Leakes wants you to have a seat on her.
We're told the freshly departed star of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" is getting into the lifestyle biz, designing and hawking furniture and home accessories.
She came up with the idea when she was furnishing her new home in Georgia and spent a lot of time in High Point, NC, a mecca for furniture design.
NeNe's shopping her idea to several merchandisers and she's already gotten offers. She hasn't picked one yet, but it would seem HSN is a front-runner since she's already got a successful clothing line on the network.
It's a good thing, right Martha?

Olivia Gonzales claims in her lawsuit, the parachute-like pants became all the rage when she wore them on the MTV show. She decided to make it a business, with the help of her mom and a company called Infusion.
Olivia -- who goes by Chachi -- says Infusion was paying her mom monthly profits of $10k while she was a minor, but she says the oldest story in Hollywood came to pass ... mom stole the money.

John Salley James Harden Is a Genius ... To Bang Khloe Kardashian
James Harden and Khloe Kardashian have a HUGE supporter (ask Lisa Ann) in John Salley ... who tells TMZ Sports he thinks it's a genius move for the NBA superstar.
Ex-NBA champ Salley was out at LAX when we asked if Harden was playing with fire by dating Khloe ... since it hasn't exactly worked out for the last few athletes who've gotten in deep with the Kardashian girls. Yeah, we're looking at you ... Kris Humphries, Lamar Odom, and Miles Austin.
Check out the clip -- Salley's not buying any talk of a Kardashian kurse, and explains why the Beard will be just fine. We think it has something to do with KK's umm ... talents.

Lisa Vanderpump Barn Stormin' ... For My Mini Horses
Lisa Vanderpump just built a fabulous new home where her miniature horses can roam in the middle of Beverly Hills. Sorry, deer and antelope ... you're on your own.
LV's pal Mohamed Hadid designed, built and painted a mini barn for the mini horses Lisa just bought for hubby Ken's birthday. We're told Mohamed hammered out the project over 2 weeks ... so the lil' Vanderponies could ball out in true Bev Hills fashion.
He painted it pink because it's Lisa's favorite color -- which is weird, since the horses are Ken's gifts ... but whatever.
Never look a gift horse house in the mouth.

Miranda Lambert 'The Voice' Helped Ruin Our Marriage
Miranda Lambert claims cheating was not the only reason her marriage fell apart ... Blake Shelton was way more into "The Voice" than her, and she felt like an abandoned wife ... so say our Miranda sources.
Our sources say Blake's hit TV show was a constant source of conflict between them. She says he had to spend between 7 and 8 months a year in Los Angeles ... a place she "hates." Nevertheless, the sources say she would fly to L.A. to see him -- sometimes just for a day.
But Miranda claims he rarely reciprocated by coming to Oklahoma or wherever she was working.
The sources say Miranda felt abandoned and ultimately said, "This is no way to live."
As for the cheating ... both sides are not backing down and accusing the other of infidelity.

Caitlyn Jenner Not Balling THAT Hard ... Her Lambo Is Just For Show
Caitlyn Jenner is not quite the lady pimp she appeared to be ... but she's definitely as showy.
As we told you ... a Lamborghini Aventador -- base price $400k -- showed up in her driveway on Tuesday ... via flatbed delivery truck. While we're sure she COULD afford one ... turns out Caitlyn did not buy it -- it's just a rental for her docuseries.
Sources close to "I Am Cait" production tell us the show rented the exotic whip for a scene they're shooting.
Remember, Caitlyn's still into Bruce's fave hobbies -- driving ATVs and motorcycles, so it's not shocking she might feel the need for Lambo speed.

Benzino Sentenced to Hit the Books Guns in Airports for Dummies
Benzino dodged a year in prison for bringing his loaded gun to the airport -- and instead the judge is forcing him to go to school ... the easiest school ever, we're guessing.
The former “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” star pled no contest to putting his loaded 9mm through a TSA checkpoint in Atlanta. He says he took the wrong laptop bag.
Benzino was sentenced to one year of probation, a $500 fine, 700 hours community service, and a crash course in gun safety ... which he has 60 days to complete.
Sure, it'll take a while to tick off the 700 hours, but the gun safety class? Just remember this, Benzino ... DON'T TAKE LOADED GUNS TO THE AIRPORT -- and you should pass.
Extra credit: Nightclubs are also bad for loaded weapons.
