North to Shore Festival presents Ladies Night Out Comedy Tour in Atlantic City

originally published: 03/27/2023

(ATLANTIC CITY, NJ) -- Grab your Girls! The North to Shore Festival presents The Ladies' Night Out Comedy Tour with Loni Love, Jess Hilarious, B. Simone, Jackie Fabulous, hosted by Real Housewives of Atlanta's leading lady Nene Leakes makes its way to Atlantic City at The Adrian Philips Theater at Boardwalk Hall on Sunday, June 11th at 5:00pm.

These leading ladies of comedy are gathering rave reviews wherever they go! See the queens of humor as they bring a new roar to the Jersey shore. Only New Jersey can take it as well as they dish it.

Loni Love is currently a co-host of The Real, the one-hour daily talk show which has just been renewed for a fifth AND sixth season on Fox stations. The nationally syndicated show (with a rebroadcast in primetime on cable network BET) was touted by the New York Post as “fun, funny, involved in life, outrageous by nature, warm and, most of all, real.” The show was nominated for four EMMY Awards, including Outstanding Talk Show, and won the EMMY for Outstanding Entertainment Talk Show Hosts. The Real also won a 2018 NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Talk Series.

Never shy to tell you how it is, the "original housewife" of Atlanta, author, actor, and entrepreneur Nene Leakes is busier than ever. Fresh off of traveling nationwide for the extension of her successful one-woman comedy show, after popular demand, she is excited to embark on new business ventures including the expansion of her luxury clothing and accessories store Swagg Boutique and her new popup location Swaggalicious to the South Florida market.

Nene's life is turned upside down as Gregg is faced with a cancer diagnosis, shifting her focus from touring the world to staying by his side as they experience the ups and downs of the disease together. Incredibly resilient, Nene is looking forward to new beginnings and is hopeful for what life will bring.
