EndedTalk Show show

After an enormously successful 23-year career as a radio personality, Wendy Williams concocted The Wendy Williams Show in July of 2008, which became nationally syndicated in its first season. Dubbed a "breakthrough in daytime" by The New York Times, The Wendy Williams Show airs in 52 countries and on BET weekdays at midnight. The show is a direct mirror image of its host. From the upbeat theme music to the eye-catching decor on set, Wendy brings to life segments like "Ask Wendy," where audience members receive real-life advice from the host herself and "Hot Topics," where she dishes her touch-and-go, authentic opinion on the juiciest headlines.
