Bloop, bloop, bye! NeNe Leakes is exiting Bravo’s Real Housewives of Atlanta after seven seasons, she announced June 29. “I’m excited for the new beginnings I am pursuing,” the 48-year-old star — and the Bravo hit’s last remaining original cast member — tells Us, adding that she made the decision after “lots of thought and prayer.” HIGH DEMANDS And possibly failed negotiating. A show insider says the actress “was fired because she demanded a massive raise for the next season.” Execs balked at the staggering amount — Leakes reportedly raked in $1 million for season 7 — because “she’s not worth the drama,” says the insider. (Leakes’ rep denies the claims.) Now, as the married mom preps for her new ABC game show, To Tell the Truth, Bravo is auditioning…

PAUL&JULIE His Family Fan Club Thanks to his blockbuster role as Ant-Man, Paul Rudd is finally earning cool points with his son. “It’s the first thing I’ve ever done, ever, that he’s legitimately jazzed about,” the Kansas native, 46, tells Us of Jack, 9. “Every time a commercial is on, he’s like, ‘Dad! Dad!’ He’s so excited.” But the actor, who received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in L.A. July 1, has always been a superhero to wife of 12 years Julie Yaeger, 46. “She knew he was a leading man from the first time she met him,” a source says of the mom of Jack and 5-year-old daughter Darby. (Fun fact: The former publicist first crossed paths with Rudd when he was promoting Clueless in 1995.)…

ASHTON AND MILA Surprise Vows! Kutcher and Kunis finally wed at a secluded site My theory on weddings is . . . do it privately and secretly,” Mila Kunis explained to W in 2014. And over the July 4 weekend, she did just that. Joined by a small group of family and friends, Kunis, 31, wed Ashton Kutcher, 37, at the lush Secret Garden at Parrish Ranch in Oak Glen, California. Dressed in a crystal-beaded strapless gown, the bride exchanged vows with her tuxedo-clad groom. The littlest witness: daughter Wyatt, 9 months. “Ashton was carrying her,” says a source. “She was great during the ceremony and didn’t make a fuss!” After, guests — who bunked in luxury tents at the newly dubbed “Camp KuKu” — snacked on casual fare. Adds…

HAMM’S INNER CHILD Why Jon is mad for his Despicable new role You would think that auditioning for a project set in the ’60s would come easily to Jon Hamm. But even with seven seasons of Mad Men behind him, the actor had to plead before he got to voice a villain in Minions (out July 10). “I met with the powers that be . . . and was like, ‘Please pick me!’” says the St. Louis native. Still, Hamm, 44, was out of his comfort zone in his first major role in an animated film. “I messed around with my voice,” he says of the Despicable Me prequel. “I talked to myself in elevators!” Hamm, who’s been dating actress Jennifer Westfield for 16 years, talks to Us. Q: How…

NBC’s message to Donald Trump: You’re fired. On June 29, the network joined Univision, announcing it won’t air the Miss USA pageant because Trump, a co-owner, made disparaging remarks about Mexican immigrants. “They’re bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime. They’re rapists,” the 2016 presidential hopeful said in a June 16 speech. But the 64th annual event — which also lost cohosts Cheryl Burke and MSNBC’s Thomas Roberts — will now air on Reelz July 12 with host Jeannie Mai. Explains a rep, “We are moving forward, full steam ahead.” FIRED UP Trump is also barreling over his detractors. The real estate mogul, 69, threatened litigation against “weak” NBC, which is looking into airing The Celebrity Apprentice with a new host, and he filed a $500 million lawsuit against Univision. After Macy’s…

Playtime With Holly and Stella! Williams’ top toys from WhitesMercantile.com “I was on tour the entire time I was pregnant, so she heard the same songs every night,” country star Holly Williams says of performing while expecting daughter Stella, her first, with husband Chris Coleman, 35. Now 9 months old, the little one already has a keen ear: “She has a ball at sound check — we get her on the drums!” The Nashville-based mom, 34, also proprietor of the high-end boutique H. Audrey and the rustic-chic White’s Mercantile, shares a few notes with Us. Q: Does Stella like your music? Two weeks ago, I was recording a demo in the house.

His Ring Is Off! Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck arranged it perfectly. In their final act as a married couple, the duo jetted to their home in the exclusive Baha mian resort of Baker’s Bay for five days — ensuring children Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 3, would be out of the spotlight when news of their parents’ divorce hit. Together, the family swam in the club’s infinity pool and played on the white sand beaches. Away from their brood, however, the couple of more than a decade had little to say. Sitting on a staircase leading to the beach July 3, Garner wrapped her arms around her knees as Affleck fixated on the grass in front of him. “For about two minutes, they sat in complete silence,” says…

Five seasons on the famously risqué Game of Thrones should have prepared Kit Harington for any sex scene. Then the actor, 28, signed on for 7 Days in Hell. In the faux documentary — about a never-ending 2004 Wimbledon match — Andy Samberg’s bad boy Aaron Williams actually stops play to have a public threesome with two streakers. His opponent, Harington’s timid Charles Poole, is, uh, visibly excited by the show. “I have an everlasting image of Andy making out with a guy and a girl,” says Harington, “while I have a massive dildo down my shorts. I thought, I’m in too deep.” Samberg, 36, agrees the vignette is impactful. “I’m not saying they should do anything to the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel,” he deadpans, “but if they were…

OUT FRIDAY 7/17 The Chemical Brothers Born in the Echoes At last, a little relief from EDM’s repetitive synth whirring and bass drops. Taking Daft Punk’s lead, that other iconic dance duo reemerges after five years away with an innovative pack of rockin’ beats. And when they do call on a few pop stars (Beck, St. Vincent) to lend their talents, it’s no cheap ploy to force out a hit. Thanks, you two. (Astralwerks MY TOP REGGAE TRACK S!
