First of all I am starting this post at 3 am. My days and nights are backwards. I did manage to vote Friday night so that was great and I am hoping to get to the grocery soon but it’s big shop time and I prefer to go in the morning so this is not helping. But everyone it seems is worried about Wendy Williams, something ain’t right. I mention all my personal stuff because my DVR is set to record two morning shows when Wendy comes on and I wake up at 11 am when her show starts because I also tape The View and that makes the TV change the channel. So I always try to just get up AT 11 am but usually I just fall asleep again watching Wendy so I was not pay that much attention.
But I am watching the episode on Youtube now and sorta recapping it. First thing that comes to my mind is “fixed and dilated.” This is sad. Norman seems like he is peeing his pants over this. I love Norman. I even miss white Norman at this point. Boof who got fired and replaced by NOTBoof has posted online that everyone is too afraid to confront Wendy (I presume about her addiction) Because they don’t want to lose their jobs. He did, and he lost his.
I’m Just Sad For Wendy Williams
For one thing I wonder how she can even read her cards. Or maybe that is the problem? She is totally fucked up beyond belief on something and poor Norman is so trying to help her out. Also, on most of the live talk shows the Friday show is taped. I am not sure if Wendy does that or not, but I feel like if she did tape this her production team would have just said to play an episode of Green Acres or something. I didn’t find her bizarre behavior during shoe cam out of the ordinary for her. She often makes things about her. But looking at it now, yeah. She’s fucked up on something. I can’t believe this aired.

At the 13 minute mark or so they brought out a “co-host.” He really, really tries to help and Norman is just happy he doesn’t have to prop the show up by himself. Norman needs a hug. This guy is doing his best to distract from what is going on and is doing a great job trying to get us to focus on him and not the drugged out host. The Suzanne Somers interview was very awkward. Poor Suzannne.
Somehow, she seem even worse with the Halloween crafts guy she is groping the counter to stay upright. Is she drinking/drugging during the breaks? Remember her show is LIVE even though it is not live in Atlanta anymore, our local station took over that hour for more local news and pushed her to 11 am when The View airs so she is fucked anyway. She was too fucked up to do the crafting with the craft guy. He must totally be wondering WTF is going on here. He had all the crafts for her and she didn’t touch a thing but kept on trying to hold herself up.
This is just sad. On ask Wendy she could not follow the questions. It’s like Ask Drunk Tamara. Hell that should be a regular feature here. lol. She asked the guy basically, how old are you? And then called him girl. If you choose to watch the episode below watch it till the last second because it keeps getting weirder right until the bitter end.
This is bad, y’all.
Or watch the whole episode here.
Yes I agree with you. It’s sad.
Aw. Man. Can’t believe they aired it!
I love Wendy, but she has alot of health issues. And Nene making fun of her swollen legs, is just Nene being a bitch!
That’s what Nene does..she stomps on peoples necks when they’re already down. Cause that’s the kind of hood tripe she is. Shes angry about her financial situation but she done it to herself. Shes always jealous and envious of others who are doing well. She can never be happy for someone’s good fortune. And she has raised a hoodrat when she had the ability to raise an educated good human being..and she Knows it. She should be ashamed of how shes thrown her good opportunities away..being greedy and jealous.
Praying for Wendy to get some help. Praying her Real friends and family will step up and keep her from doing this to herself any more. Its horribly uncomfortable to watch. It’s sad she has so many uncaring people around her..all they want is their paycheck.
I’m pretty sure they’re all taped because of corona. There’s no way this went to air without a conversation by somebody. They knew exactly the response this would get.
Seems like they are live, besides Fridays with a limited studio audience there.
She does seem off. My heart aches for her, She seems very lost and doesnt seem to have anyone
that will be a real friend and get thru to her. Everyone needs her to make theie money.
Hope she can get help and get back to doing better and moving on from that horrible ex.
I don’t watch this show but saw the clip and I’m so curious about the way this show is run. Wendy is the talent and, I assume, producer. But they should all be more afraid of the network.
Unless the network is exploiting the train wreck aspect. Even if they are using her impairment for that, don’t advertisers run screaming? Who would want that association?
Is the idea that everyone is that afraid of Wendy yelling?
She seems like the “drunk aunt” to Trumps “crazy uncle.”
Her schtick has always been a mean, gossipy aunt. A drunk one isn’t far off brand.
She got tons of coverage of her addiction issues last year. Sure seemed convenient to get papz outside a halfway house.
Yeah, I’d seen those halfway house pap strolls. I like the idea proposed below that it’s a stunt for ratings. That doesn’t mean she’s sober, or even that she’s in on the stunt, but it kind of makes sense.
Oh my God. It is too painful to watch. I can’t believe the few people in the audience are smiling and clapping. She is fucked up beyond belief.
They are staffers.
The entire in studio audience are her staff clapping, hooting and hollering for their paychecks.
She’s had a tough year or two. With the pandemic on the heels of her divorce, I wouldn’t be surprised if she relapsed as a coping mechanism. I’m sure she worried about the future of her show and everyone depending on it to live. I’m pretty sure at some point we will hear an apology followed by an explanation. I wish her only the best. Please, somebody, reach out to help the poor woman. She is in obvious need. Suzanne is powerful enough to get that ball rolling, so I hope she does. xoxo
My heart breaks for her. I know addicts, was married to one, oldest son is in recovery and am a recovering addict myself. No matter what the good intentions are, if an addict doesn’t want help the will not become a recovering addict. Some one may be able to force her into rehab or getting help, but if she is truly an addict and isn’t ready to be done with that life nothing will change. She will come out of rehab or whatever and still go back and use. You can’t force an addict to stop. From just my personal experience, the only thing forced rehab does is teach an addict to hide it better.
Agree that no one can force an addict to get help and then recover. Her brain isn’t working normally, perception and decision making, and maybe she believes she is still successfully hiding it and since no one has said anything. Someone needs to tell her the whole world now knows and perhaps that is why they allowed the segment to air. It’s a blast of truth that can’t be denied, and maybe it will be enough to convince her she is out of control. If she doesn’t do something, she can lose everything. Perhaps even her life. I pray someone gets through to her in time.
Jesus that was brutal to watch🙏🏼
Wendy has had issues for a very long time. I don’t necessarily think her marriage to Kevin Hunter caused her issues but it didn’t help. It seems like things really went downhill and out of control for her when the whole “Side Having Ho living down the street / In a house Kevin (Wendy’s $$$) paid for/ Driving a car Kevin (Wendy’s $$$) paid for / Having a baby by Kevin” thing played out. It’s like she just never got over it, dysfunctional and abusive as it was, I think she can’t get past it. Guessing as strong as she portrays herself to be, she’s emotionally fragile and has low self-esteem.
Oh, man. She was wayyyyyyy loaded on something. I can’t believe they aired that…live or otherwise. Not a good look.
This makes no sense to me. I hope to God that she is not desperate enough to be talked about and relevant, it is a bit of “acting”
I will not be popular with this, but it’s been my thought and I am anxious to see “how it plays out”
She has said enough through out the years where I believe the last thing she would do is give up her career.
I also think Boof was to keep people talking and step up his career. It worked.
No one would make her movie with her at risk. She said she is telling a lot about her life and I just see “promo”
Lifetime is about business, her movie will be Thanksgiving weekend. Not very long from now.
That’s an interesting theory. I hope that’s true.
Thank you Bucky.
That was the saddest thing i have ever seen
She was dead behind the eyes ,just pitiful.It reminded me of whitney when she was giving that infamous Diane sawyer interview. I really hope someone helps her hate to see it but i think you are totally right tragic and painful to watch.
Just watched today’s episode and she seemed fine. She started the show by mentioning something about there being harsh critics out there are something like that….I was half asleep and then just went on like Friday never happened.
Yep, damage control for sure. It’s hard to watch. Too much suffering, and she is trying to keep all the plates spinning. Hard to keep up with. I’m a huge whitney Houston fan so the devil on my shoulder says Karma is a bitch, but I also feel for her.
Wow. Just wow.
Doesn’t she seem like she could break into tears at any moment, look at her face, it like her anxiety is so crazy it’s right there on the edge. Shit did anyone clock how many words per minute with her, yikes!!
Watching shoe cams was like when you are so high the most mundane things are ‘this is super like whoa!!!’
Breathmints=alcohol and definitely some pills slowing her speech pattern. But she did seem better with the Harvard grad guy, she seemed a bit more with it and then she goes back into weirdness sharing it’s so good seeing you!! Not sure what’s going on, did she lose writers and they are solely relying on her to adlib?!. Why does a man ruin everything that was Wendy, so sad. I really hope she gets help.
I was thinking about her chronic Graves’ disease. She must be on medication for that. Possibly paint killers? I have no idea honestly but I though it must be really hard to take medication while trying to stay sober. I know I can’t take medication for anxiety because of my addiction issues. I feel for her.
Actually Graves Disease is a problem with the thyroid hormone where the body produces too much of it and it can make you feel very jittery and hyper.
There are treatments including radiating the thyroid gland so it stops going overboard. But Graves does not give you pain, so there would be no reason to take painkillers. It’s all about the thyroid gland itself.
I actually applied to be a virtual audience member & have a “zoom” interview Wednesday afternoon, given a 2 hour window but told will only be 5 min max & what requirements are for background, etc…. it’s for a live episode Nov 2
YAY! Congrats! Email me all the tea! tamaratattles on g mail
Ooohhhh, this could have some information about if show can not be done, etc.
I want to know what happens if she is not “feeling well”? Anything that pertains to a problem. Do they cut it short? Is there a reschedule for the tickets? Are they not certain if the show will go on? Lol.
That apology was bizarre. This is work? This isn’t easy?
And then she breezes through this episode like nothing happened. She sounded great on Monday and sure was shilling her lifetime movie. I guess she got me tuned in for seven minutes on Monday by acting a fool, but that’s as much Wendy as I can handle in 2020.
Maybe the bitter, mean “telling it like it is” isn’t working anymore. We are so tired of bad news and negativity.
Wendy tapes Friday’s show on Thursday afternoons. I hope they start running reruns on Fridays. She seems to be in an altered state. This is very sad😪
I watched the full episode. I don’t know what she’s on or doing, but that was hard to watch. I hope someone gets her some help very soon.
How is she not fired after that?
