All about Wendy Williams!!

Why do I love Wendy??

I have heard about Wendy Williams for a long time, I have never really paid attention to her as much even though I love watching talk shows and reality TV. I got to know her late last year watching the previous episodes of the Wendy Williams Show and when season 5 kicked in, I was in full swing, I can honestly say that I watched each and every single episode through her Youtube channel as her show is yet to be broadcasted in India. Wendy turned 50 last friday and Season 5 wrapped up yesterday so here I am paying tribute to my favorite female talk show host and at the same time waiting for September when season 6 will return.

My blog is not a hate blog but I might have to strike a few shades in today's update which is not surprising because we are going to talk about Wendy, why I love her and what make her stand out? If I have to describe Wendy in one word, I would definitely say 'Unfiltered', this is one of the reason why I watch the show everyday. When I compare her with her peers on daytime TV, I love Ellen but she is so nice to everyone and their mother, I know for a fact that a normal person cannot be in love with everyone. I find the Queen Latifah's show super boring and I can barely watch it for 10 minutes, Bethenney Frankel is equally unfiltered but she is unfiltered sexually and in a very nasty way which can come across as completely gross. Watching a grown woman holding a sex toy or talking about sexual positions on daytime TV is not really entertaining and her show did get cancelled. I can go from Dr.Phil to Dr. Drew, the View to the Talk but when it comes to Wendy, none of them come close to her, she is beautiful, talented and she knows how to work a crowd.

Wendy is a true example of rags to riches story, she never hides the fact that she had a substance abuse issue growing up, she started from the bottom and she made herself where she is right now. The Wendy Williams shows has celebrity guest, chefs coming to her show, designers talking about fashion, she giveaway holidays and she does makeover for her Wendy watchers. There are three popular segments, first is 'Ask Wendy' where the studio audience randomly asks her questions which she answers them at the spot, then 'Hot Talk' where she and her panel discuss about celebrities, current events, politics, all the what nots and then come the most popular part of the show 'Hot Topics'. In 'Hot Topics', Wendy dishes about celebrities and their lives, she voices her opinion like no other and give her audience an unfiltered view on what she thinks, and this segment takes normally 20 minutes of her show. For a show that runs normally between 40-45 minutes without advertisements, its clear that "Hot Topics' is the heart of the show.

I love Wendy for all she is, unfiltered, she shows her emotions and she cries when she has her period, she shares her life and what show she watches,she calls her audience her co-host, she loves us for watching her show and thank us everyday. I am looking forward to season 6 when it arrives in September and here is the last #hottopics from season 5 and thank you all for reading.
