NeNe Leakes is loving the Beverly Hills life.  And we can't even blame her.  Pics of the reality turned sitcom starlet hitting up a celebrity hotspot along with Lakers baller Ron Artest and his girlfriend inside...

In her ripped jeans and leather sleeved blazer, the soon to be MRS again NeNe Leakes was spotted hitting up Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills solo last night.  And as we've been seeing on this new season of "Ral Housewives of Atlanta," NeNe has no plans to make a total permanent move to LaLa Land.  But she's loving living in the Hollywood Hills while filming "The New Normal." 

And if you watched "RHOA" last night, you'll recall Phaedra Parks telling tales of knowing Heads of STate, Presidents of countries and Tyler Perry.  She was asking why fellow castmember Kenya Moore thought she was helping her out on that Donkey Booty DVD deal when Phaedra already "kones" people.  Nene tweeted:

So funny I asked @tylerperry if he knew Phaedra & he said he NEVER met her! What is wrong wit these girls

Ha!

The celebrity hotspot also saw Laker baller Ron Artest aka Metta World Peace as well:

He brought his girlfriend Shin Shin (Gao Xinxin) along for a post-game celebratory meal after the Lakers beat OKC at the Staples Center Sunday afternoon.  

And did anybody else see the recent Lifetime movie The Eleventh Hour when Ron had a sizable role in the Nancy Grace-written film?  Well he clearly still has the tv/acting bug as reportedly, he's prepping a new hidden camera game show about pranking people.  The CBS show will be all about Metta and other professional athletes pranking each other -- and their family members, friends, spouses and fans aren't off limits.
