After over two months of absence, Wendy Williams has returned to The Wendy Williams Show. She arrived onstage Monday with a blonde bob, a wad of gum in her mouth, and a vague story about the health reason(s) behind her hiatus.
She teared up as the crowd, during a 40-second ovation, chanted her name. She invoked her signature catchphrase—“How you doin’?”—and after the crowd parroted back, Williams said, “I’m doin’ better now, let’s get started.”
