The Wendy Williams Show: Embarrassing Production Notes

Tracie — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 15:00:00 EDT

Today, Wendy and her producer had a public difference of opinion regarding the allegations in Andrew Morton's Angelina Jolie biography that claim that at 16, the actress had a sexual relationship with her mother's boyfriend.

Wendy was firmly on Team Marcheline, and derided Angelina for being a conniving teen harlot who is trying to make up for it now by acting like "Mother Teresa" and adopting a lot of kids. Wendy's producer held up a sign that read "boyfriend wrong abuse," to remind Wendy that Angelina was underage at the time of the affair. Wendy reminded him that teenage girls aren't stupid. And then she said she was happy to present both sides of the argument, in the style of "Judge Judy."

Real Housewife NeNe Dishes About Her Husband, Her Father, And Kim's Wig

NeNe was on The Wendy Williams Show this morning, where the two (drunkenly?) talked about the RHOA (premiering July 30). Candid as ever, NeNe talked trash on most of her castmates, and insisted they are not her friends.

Wendy kicked things off by saying to NeNe, "Let's mention the haircut…I don't like it." When asked about her relationship with Kim, NeNe said that she was never best friends with her. Actually, she said that she considers all of the other Atlanta wives "business associates." When Wendy asked about the new girl Kandi Burruss—a songwriter who used to be in the '90s group Xscape—NeNe just made a face. Wendy asked if Kandi was "fabulous" and NeNe shrugged her shoulders and said, "She aight."

NeNe also said that on this new season, her search for her biological father will continue and she confirmed that she may have a famous sister. (Could it be Keyshia Cole? She also lives in Atlanta, has a reality show, and has been looking for her biological father. Maybe if they're not related, they can at least help each other with the process of elimination.)

A few more things we learned:
Cheese binds NeNe.
NeNe likes Danielle from RHONJ, and doesn't think the Manzos are fair to her.
NeNe likes to say, "Thick as thieves" after watching RHONJ.
NeNe is writing a book called Never Make the Same Mistake Twice.

Wendy Williams Implies That Missy, Latifah, And Mariah Carey Are Lezebels

Have you been watching The Wendy Williams Show? If you're not (and you're home at 10 AM every weekday), then you should be. It's the talk radio star's live, morning talk show where she pretty much does the same thing she does on the radio — i.e., gossiping and butting into the business of celebs — but sporting nicer clothes and hair. Anyway, today while discussing gossip items about Missy Elliott (being afraid of natural childbirth) and Da Brat (she might have to serve time for assault), she basically outed them as lesbians, winked about Queen Latifah being the same, and then implied that Da Brat was more than just friends with Mariah, pre-Nick Cannon.

Radio DJ Wendy Williams has taken a stab...

Radio DJ Wendy Williams has taken a stab at TV before with her semi-regular show on VH1, but on Monday The Wendy Williams Show — an hour-long, live morning talk show — will premiere on Fox. (The live format is key, as Williams shines when putting celebrities on the spot.) The NY Times interviewed Williams about her new show, and the thing that stuck out to us the most was this quote, from a producer from her new show: "We had a long discussion about whether you can say penis." Why can't you say penis on the air? We've totally heard Oprah and Dr. Oz say penis a bunch of times. (Dr. Oz has even said "smegma.") [NY Times]
