*We know Wendy Williams is well, Wendy Williams, but is dissing Beyoncé a good career move?
Maybe, maybe not. We’ll find out when Bey’s new album comes out and she’s making the promotional rounds to promote it. If she gives Wendy the cold shoulder we’ll know the answer to our somewhat hypothetical question.
The other day on her show – while talking about Beyoncé’s upcoming self-directed HBO documentary about her life – Wendy, said she was a fan, but seemingly before she finished saying that, she went in on Bey, basically calling her dumb.
“I am a Beyonce fan. I’m gonna watch her upcoming documentary because fortunately one of the TVs in our kitchen has closed captioning so I’ll be able to understand what she says. You know Beyonce can’t talk. She sounds like she has a fifth grade education.”
The studio audience booed in response to Williams and she got a little defensive:
“Excuse me, I just said I was a fan. But we have to call a spade a spade.”
Oh Wendy, you are a piece of work. Can’t wait to see what happens when Beyoncé’s new CD drops
This isn’t the first time Beyoncé’s communication skills have come under fire. In April, her grasp of grammar was questioned by critics who got hold of the letter she wrote to first lady Michelle Obama.
Why is Wendy Williams falsely claiming that she’s a fan of Beyonce? If she was actually a real fan of Beyonce she would not have made such remark. I’m no fan of either but Wendy should not be talking any trash about Beyonce. Wendy is hurt in the face and is more of a manly looking b*tch. She does not look like a real woman to begin with and appears to be Transgender (TRANNY) half man / half woman.
ok, here is the deal. most of mainstream america has no idea who wendy williams really is. they just know she came from radio to tv. but if u are from up north here, nyc, philly, jersey u know that wendy was basically a female shock jock ala howard stern, whom is a sort of quasi mentor to her. that being said, wendy has never liked beyonce, nor destiny’s child as a whole. google the time that destiny’s child stop by the wendy williams radio show (prior to beyonce leaving the group) and unbeknownst to them wendy had set up a tape recorder and taped them in the green room talking shyt about wendy. u can clearly hear beyonce say “i hate this func show and i dont want to do no func sound bed saying “how you doing”. as soon as they left the studio wendy blasted it over the airwaves. so wendy knows that beyonce would never do her show anyway therefore she lets her feelings be known.
other piece that mainstream america does not get.go back and research the “how you doing” catch phrase. cute as it might be, it culminates from wendys code phrase for someone being gay or lesbian. it was street code everywhere up north. if someone was suspect u might say “oh you know dayum well he/she is how youuuu doing”
last nuggut, wendy did the same thing to whoopi. blasted her left and right on the radio, called her ugly, said she dressed funny. fast forward to wendy williams tv show. google whoopi coming to wendys show and u will see that whoopi’s daughter is her manager and was against her going on the show but whoopi being bigger than that went, she threw wendy a carrot to try to help wendy get her show off to a good start show she lent her cache to wendy and wendy cried on that show because she knew how poorly she had treated whoopi over the years.
…there u have it kids. i aint mad at wendy. just spitting the facts for yall.
WOW!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Huey!!!
I wonder if there is a YouTube of Beyonce cussing like that???
You’re saying Whoopi lent Wendy money, etc.?? I do remember when Whoopi went on Wendy’s show.
I ordered tickets for Wendy’s show taping on MLK Day. I hope I get them.
no, not saying she lent her money, im saying that whoopi lent her cache with regards to her “a” list name recognition to wendy’s show when wendy first got started on tv. when wendy’s show first started she had very few “a” list celebs on the show.
even today, there are some black celebs that flat out wont do the show because of wendy’s vileness towards them during her radio years in philly and nyc. she has also defamed will smith, he threatened to buy the radio station and throw her off of it. he rapped about it in one of his songs. she called him and jada both “how you doing”…she defamed tyson beckford as gay, she pizzed off method man for exposing his wifes bout with cancer, he came to the show and hung out on the street and waited for her. she apologized on air for it.
sorry for not being clear on that. thats why u dont see a lot of “a” list blacks doing her show. ever. it really strange when u think about. white media has a way of sanitizing blacks that fit a certain mold. they sanitized her image. they did the same to steve harvey.
Yep, Whitney Houston was one of those black celebs who refused to do more than speak a few minutes on the phone to Wendy.
I think Wendy Williams will be able to survive without Beyonce coming on her show. As far as the way Beyonce speaks, she sounds pretty much like the other people do in the place where SHE was born and raised (as we ALL do). Beyonce is from Houston, Texas. I am from New York City, but I spent three years in Houston (from 2009 through this past August). Everybody down there sounds like Beyonce. The bottom line is that we live in a society where sounding and being educated do not necessarily translate into success. Beyonce is studying for her GED and sounds like a cotton-pickin’ farmer, but she is RICH AS HELL. I am educated, with a master’s degree (something very few Americans have) and meticulous speech, diction, etc., and I am unemployed with no prospects. At the end of the day, you must play the cards you are dealt. You may be dealt a great hand or a shitty one.
SPEAKING OF STEVE HARVEY … Everyone on this site knows how much I despise the man after having met him in person, BUT … I watched his new television show for the first time a few days ago, and you are 100% correct about the sanitizing. They made him stop wearing those ridiculous suits (and since he has lost a few pounds, he no longer needs them to cover his big wide ass anyway) and put him on a beautiful television studio set. The whites in the audience seem to LOVE him (just like they loved Oprah). I predict the show will be on for years to come (but Steve Harvey will STILL be bitten in the ass by Karma at some point–still waiting for that).
I am very familiar with Wendy from way back when, but I still don’t think what she said was cool now that her platform has grown tremendously. On a side note, I’ve been saying the same thing about Beyonce for years among my friends.
It’s time for Wendy to grow the hell up, I would love for Bobbi Kristina to go on her show. I don’t know what time or station this hood rat comes on in my area, I would give BK a pass for this one. I would love to see her rip Wendy stupid azz to pieces. Who cares if this ugly tranny speaks her mind everybody does that. ‘how you doing’ is old school Wendy sounds retarded when she says it. I get the feeling that anyone who don’t kiss Wendy’s fake azz, she goes in on them. So Beyonce is ‘dumb’, she’s not the first ‘dummy’ to make millions. Wendy Williams is dumb and fugly, luckily and miraculously things has worked out for her as well.
i doubt u will see b.k. on wendy’s show. wendy built her name by being the one who exposed b.k.’s mother as an abuser on her radio show back in the day when her mother called in a had it out on live radio with wendy. thats the interview that launched wendy’s radio brand.
huey I know the story, I remember when the interview went viral. It’s just wishful thinking on my part. Whitney’s drug abuse was old news by the time WW supposedly “expose” it. I had heard about it for years.
Wendy said Beyonce’s mother was an abuser? I wish I could find a link.

As harsh as Wendy comes across, what she said is the truth. Beyoncé is not the most articulate lady in the room but that doesn’t or shouldn’t take away from what she’s been able to accomplish as an artist. I would recommend some time with Toastmasters to build up those public speaking skills lol!
WOW!!! Wendy trying to diss someone and you look like a Dude!!! and sound like one too, as long as I have seen Beyonce on TV in interviews etc, I noticed her manner of speaking that is nothing new but I will not bash her for that, Beyonce has taken her poor way of speaking and is laughing all the way to the bank, it appears to have not hindered her mega success in the least. Wendy needs to shut her ugly horse looking azz up and have a seat!!! another thing I am sure Beyonce has heard all of the hateful things said about her over the years, stealing songs, trying ot overshadow Kely and Michelle talent wise( which is not hard both Kelly and Michelle are lightweights) sham marriage, and the so called fake pregnancy, she did not pull a Chris Brown and go off on those who criticize her, she continues to display class and ignore the hate.
@HUEY, Yep I remember all of that as well. I’m from Philly..
>>>babycakes you’re right anything and everything that can possibly be said about Beyonce has been said over and over again. She smiles and take the high road, also flips, cartwheels and bounce all the way to the bank….that ground hog fugly heffer Wendy Willliams could only wish……
“but is dissing Beyoncé a good career move?”
EUR, y’all tripping?
I know you not that clueless.
Everybody knows Wendy doesn’t particularly have mad love for Beyonce and doesn’t expect any in return.
Once again, Wendy has played Cruella again BUT she is not the first person to criticize Beyonce publicly about her venacular drawl.
Just wanted to say everything Huey said is true, Wendy once worked for a station called 97.1 Hot 97 and was fired for her antics when she exposed Sean Combs for being Bi-Sexual. There was an alleged photo of him performing fellatio on another man and she posted it on her website. She went from NY to Philly to where she is now on TV. She has no loyalty and in my opinion isn’t so nice.
Wow!
Please… get over the the Beyonce worshipping and the “Wendy looks like a man” BS. We’ve heard it all. At the end of the day, Beyonce talks like a country bumpkin with limited intelligence and enunciation. Its a fact. Is she a great perfomer? Yes. Is she pretty? Yes. Is she rich? Yes. Does that take away from the fact that she sounds ignorant when she opens her mouth? No. Thats all. Good Day
are you guys godmother or something? Y’all defending beyondme me like church, were you invited to her baby shower or wet nursed the blue child? WW, is a my girl!!!!, sure beyond has millions, but she’s still an idiot w/o a ged as well as her equally uneducated sister and husband. I know you all are fans of Wendy, you have to be, to remember AND REPEAT here line-by-line, all the shit Wendy has said!!!!!!!, and you know it!!!! . . .YOU listened to hear about who she was going to tear down or raise up. Wendy’s all the things you say she is and then some. She’s like liver & onions, ya love it or ya don’t . .. I LOVE LIVER & ONIONS. :<3 )
Wendy is so annoying with her transvestite azz. I Despise liver and onions. LOL!!!!
PS> Never watched Wendy’s show and never will.
LOL! As stated above, anyone from the Northeast knows how Wendy rolls. This ain’t no shock. She was always mouthing off and telling everybody’s business. I’m sure she still on a lot of rappers ‘hate’ list after her trying out alleged ‘gay rappers’. Anyway, it’s not like what she said about Beyonce is not true. Money or no money, accent or no accent, she’s SOUNDS dumb. I don’t think that Beyonce is dumb but when she opens her mouth, she does sound uneducated.
PS: What is up with her producing a documentary about herself?? Sounds a lil egotistical to me.
“Unfortunately… there is a lot of truth in what she is saying!
If you ever watch any of the documentaries on Motown… they had artist development.
They taught the acts how to move on / off stage, how to speak etc.
Beyonce’ is a talented performer…it is actually painful to watch her being interviewed.
She really comes off as not too bright!!!
Rihanna is younger… when interviewed she makes sense. You don’t have to agree with what she is saying… but she makes sense.
Beyonce’ needs a great deal of help in this area!!!
I agree with you on Rihanna she is a bit more articulate than Beyonce maybe, Rihanna can help Beyonce on speaking and Beyonce in turn can help Rihanna to actually SING!! perform etc seeing that she is sorely deficient in those areas. LOL!
Lady Elle, true indeed about Motown. Even though, they were ‘extreme’ in some ways but they realized that their acts were not just representing them, they were representing blacks (well, at that time, it was important and understood). Oh well, that was another era and a different time. Nowadays, the ‘in’ thing is to sound and act like one has no sense. Times have changed indeed.
LOLOLOL…..I thought this was a GOSSIP site? Aren’t these gossip sites set up so we can come in and give our meaningless opinion? Honey boo please…….
*For the record I DO NOT I repeat I DO NOT watch that travesty Wendy Williams show, previews of her show is flashed during other programs. I can’t stand Wendy Williams but I love onions, fried, grilled, raw you name it……lol

Interesting.
I read the article and felt that Wendy was promoting black on black hate. I thought it was mean.
Not really. That’s just how so called “shock jocks” make their living. By being mean and obnoxious. And why wouldn’t they, when they have a slew of people tuning in to hear their crap. That type of stuff always turns me off. I’d rather tune in to NPR in the morning than listen to all those wannabe “shock Jocks” trying to out do each other.
I have seen Wendy Williams in person and she is fake as a $6 bill. She had on 2 pounds of make up that didn’t match her skin, her hair weave was matted like wet dog hair and she was promoting her book. She refused to come from behind the table and would only lean over to take a picture. Like, Bitch WTF are you??? I was just bored so I took a picture with her and had no clue who the hell she was. She talks all that crap about people but yet, everything about her is fake which means she obviously had an issue with self hatred with herself which is usually where it starts. Everybody knows we thrive off of entertainers dirty laundry and that’s how she makes her living…yes, we are all over dosed on Beyawwnsay but you can’t knock her hustle and we have to give credit where credit is due, Bey does carry herself with class. I have a friend who saw her and said she is actually drop dead gorgeous and nowadays you don’t have to an ounce of talent but nice looks will get you any and everything i.e. Rhianna, Justin Bieber, Cassie. It will be just a matter of time that somebody will expose Wendy for who “he” really is and if you think for one minute that husband of her’s is the man that loves and adores her, your sadly mistaken. Rumor has it he beats that ass with regularity and he’s only with her because he’s on the payroll. I mean who would pass up a check for doing absolutely nothing??? That was so foul how she did Method Man’s wife. They say she was scared to come out the building but I heard Tranny’s can really fight…so…
“Tranny’s can fight. He he he……laugh online!
Beyonce is one of the most successful women in music. Regardless of whether she has the best speaking ability, (which there’s nothing wrong with by the way) doesn’t give anyone, especially Wendy Williams, the drama-seeking TV host that loves to bash celebrates ahead of her the right to publicly bash someone like Beyonce.
It’s a fact that Beyonce needs a speech therapist. Think about all the spoken interludes on the Destiny’s Child albums…here’s some snippets, on ‘DC3′ : ‘Wouln’t be a Dest’nees Child if it wasunt fa YOU!” or on the song to her Dad…or ‘DC3′ – “To Kelly, the most beautifulest girl in da werld…” She’s gorgeous, she’s talented, she just needs to get some diction and not sound like she was home schooled near a cattle ranch. Match the voice with the money and you get some real Freakum Money then!
It is magnified when she is interviewed. I believe it is one of the reasons she almost runs from interviews! Beyonce’ knows that she is not good in terms of speaking.
If she wants to cross-over to acting… she will need to improve her speech. It is how you grow… if there is something you are not so good at, get a teacher and improve!
She has had a limited range of characters in terms of her acting experience to date.
Kelly had a similar start… she can speak okay!
Wendy Williams is either an androgynous, or an hermaphrodite. Most of you have clearly recognized her partial manly looking features. She definitely shows characteristics or nature of both male and female, as she manage being both sexes very well. She may not really be a transvestite, or the ol’ tranny created and made in a hospital.
Wow this is the first time that I have ever notice Bey wearing her hair pinned up showing her noticeable trademark ears. Bey still has a pretty smile and is not looking like the stud – Wendy Williams. Bi-sexuals probably would like something like Wendy, because they love sleeping around with both sexes male & female. So If they get with Wendy they will have a 2 in 1 advantage. I’m the least surprised if Wendy was packing 9-14 inches along side of the ol’ fu·ri·ous kitty (tiger puff).
