Wendy Williams may dish it out on her purple chair, but she was both commentator and content this week.
This weekend Wendy’s presents the movie “Wendy Williams: The Movie”. Which, I love. That’s a fun title. But this is about Wendy Williams… The Ride? <claws out>
Williams has increasingly invited people into stories from her own life, opening her personal vault of sorts to make herself the subject.
Not long after publicly sparring with her brother over their mother’s funeral, Williams, 56, openly mentioned the name of her husband’s mistress — Sharina Hudson — on her show Tuesday.
As Williams shared details about her past ahead of the Lifetime movie, she also drew attention for recounting one particular encounter with Method Man, the rapper, actor and member of the Wu-Tang Clan.
“I smoked a blunt with Method Man while I gave him a bath and it was a one-night stand,” she told DJ Suss One.
“What?!” he replied. “That wasn’t in the movie.”
“He’ll deny it, maybe not,” Williams said. “It wasn’t in the movie because Method Man is still very angry at me for being me, for telling the truth. It was one night. We were in the club. A fight broke out and gunshots broke out. The fight was ridiculous. The whole Wu-Tang was there but it was only Meth up in the rafters. And see, that’s where I go to observe everything because I was by myself.
“He rolled a blunt, we smoked a blunt, we watched the fight,” she continued. “We heard the gunshots, the cops came in … I guess I batted my eyes and rocked my shoulders and I said, ‘You wanna come over?’ And he said, ‘Yeah, I’ll follow you.’”
“People didn’t even realize at the time it was Wendy and one of the biggest stars, the leader of the biggest group in the world, just left, got in her Pathfinder and went back to her penthouse in Jersey City where she bathed him in her jacuzzi tub and smoked more weed,” Williams said.
“Did you guys go all the way?” Suss One asked.
“Yes!” she said.
“Wendy Williams: The Movie” premieres 8 p.m. ET on Lifetime Saturday, Jan. 30, followed by the documentary “Wendy Williams: What a Mess!” at 10 p.m. ET.
