Wendy Williams?

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Wow! how fucking exciting. Is Aaliyah going ot be fullof gossip? and get plastic surgery half way through? is half the movie going to be about her relationship with R Kulla? since Wendy only knows gossip and plastic surgery.

And we all know how lifetime quality acting is...

Hold up Wendy Williams is the executive producer of this Lifetime movie? You know this film is going to be messy. It doesn't matter this actress picked does not resemble Aaliyah but can she act and dance? You know 2/3rds of the film will focus primarily on the relationship and subsequent marriage to R.Kelly. I'm sure she's going to imply Aaliyah's family knew about it and pimped their daughter out.

I remember listening to the radio when Wendy broke the news first about the R.Kelly sex tape she became quite emotional and so did I when she described intimate details of what she seen.

Trust me she's going to make R.Kelly look like a predator.

As much as I adore Aaliyah! I do adore her. I hate to say it . But Wendy is perfect! She will get the TRUTH out. No sugar coating. The actress doesn't look like her, but has the dimples. We will see. I have followed Aaliyah's career closely. So I will be critiquing every scene very closely.

The movie suppose to be done by summer & out by fall, THIS YEAR!!! eek

eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince

Remember folks Wendy is the Executive Producer...That means she holds the purse and determines how much Money is put into the making of the story...And yes she has some say in the casting and the over-all telling of the story even though most Executive Producers let the people hired for specific jobs do what they were hired to do....Wendy is "Messy" so she'll def wear many hats with the Production. I agree with KCool, she's the perfect person to be the Godmother of Aaliya's story cuz Wendy is likely to tell the Bloody truth..She can be a Messy Woman and she'll research Shit and put people bizness out there but she's probably the right one for the job.

Maybe I should start a new thread for this question but does anyone know exactly how Wendy gets her information? It seems like there are some celebs who go out of their way NOT to be on her show (Prince I'm sure has declined). But, it seems that she's got some kind of voodoo or something over Hollywood because people either like her or really despise her, A LOT! I agree with the person who said that she's probably going to run R Kelly through the wringer.

prince actually called Wendy & invited her & her husband out to eat. He was promoting his new 3RDEYEGIRL project, which he played for her!

He told her he could possibly make an appearance in the future. Its called show BUSINESS missy for a reason. biggrin

For some reason, I thought he had beef with her or was that a different DJ in NYC. And don't call me missy! wink

But, as far as everyone else in the business, why do some folks hate her so much? She also seems feared as well!

Wendy use to be the top DJ in NYC. How she became the top DJ? It was by finding out dirt on every black entertainer she could think of! Its the reason peeps feared her. Also the reason why I don't like her!

She had peeps spy on them, then she would tell all their "dirty" secrets ON THE AIR! Her favorite topic, was men on the dl. She outted every male & female black entertainer she found out about.

She tried to ruin & out P Diddy! He had her fired! She became well known, after her now famous radio interview with Whitney Houston. When she was the only one at the time, brave enough to confront Whitney on her "alleged" drug use. Whitney cussed her out on the air! biggrin

When her talk show first came on the air. Hardly any black entertainers wanted to go on there. I didn't think it would last. But ratings were solid. Now she is a multi entertainment mogul. I give her credit. Its her time now like prince told her.

Yeah I guess that makes sense how she was able to build up her rep so quickly. She was in the biggest media market and had desperate goons dying to get into the entertainment business doing her bidding. You know, I have always wondered if those people (who aren't famous) that you see at awards shows and parties with celebs are some of the spies. I can't quite figure out who those people are. They can't all be chums from high school! smile Which male entertainers besides P. Diddy did she out?

I don't tell anyone's personal business or get into that. Me working in entertainment myself. I have the utmost respect for my craft & the peeps that work in it.

Id be curious to know if any celebrity has come and defended themselves against Wendy Williams blasting them. It does seems like someone would have by now. If Wendy is factual in her messiness then she should probably be the executive producer on any and all movies/tv series about african american actors and musical artist.

The late beautiful Whitney Houston did and very well I may add.....She gave Wendy a shot of her own medicine...

Yeah the Whitney thing was funny to me. But it only made Whitney look bad in the end. I have yet to see Wendys accusations discredited.

How does Wendy get her information? Easy question, easy anser...She has GREAT Producers that always know a friend of a friend. Nothing in Gollywood is Secret but if you don't hang in the right circles you won't get the 411 on Shit. She had great Producers with her old radio show and her Team grew when she went into Television. If you have a Producer willing to sleep on a Hotel floor to get a picture or talk to anybody and their Mama then your Job as a Gossip Queen is so much easier...Wendy has broken a few high profile events on her show that even the Guests didnt know were about to happen...She told Susan Lucci that she heard a Rumor at ABC that her show and another Soap were going to be canceled...Susan claimed that that was news to her and it was indeed a rumor. According to Susan, a week later she was summoned to the ABC Daytime Executive Producers Office and was the first cast member to be told the news.....Whenever you hear Wendy tell a Guest that she heard a "Rumor" about something it tends to be a done deal...

Bingo...And that's the plain truth right there..When OL'girl was in radio I first heard about her on the Chaka Khan message board. The members on that board always called her a "Frog Face" or some kind of name...LOL...She was big in New York...I was like "who is this woman?"...Then I saw her VH1 interview/Celeb show...It was alright but mainly forgettable....Then my city picked up her show and I listened to 10min of her and it wasnt enough to make me wanna listen daily....Then she went to television and i tuned in during season 2 or 3 I think...She's definitely NOT Mighty Oprah and that's the Secret to her show's success...She's the opposite of Oprah and you either want to be Entertained in a Messy way or you don't watch her at all...She's very Funny, engaging, on the Ghetto side and appears to be comfortable in her own skin. Her Television persona changed my My attitude about her. I like her and I think she's got what it takes to stick around until she's ready to go...No one in Daytime Talk can be Messy & Likeable better than her..She's very unique...

Messy and likable just about sums it up, LOL. And you're right, usually when she airs it out that means it's probably true. I saw something on her TV show today that I had heard a few weeks ago and dismissed it as gossip---but when I saw it on Wendy then it made me think perhaps the rumor was true! I guess Wendy moves in mysterious ways, LOL smile

Trust me there's been plenty of artists that wanted to come at Wendy especially when she was on the radio. She was constantly threatened to get her ass kicked.
Reality star Omarosa came out her on her tv show it was good television

Check out Method Man rant on Wendy on YouTube. I thought was Wendy was wrong in this instance he had every right to be upset with her.

When Puffy sees me at parties,he ignores me and walks the other way",she says."He thinks I'm gonna ask him about his homosexuality,but honestly,that's not what I'm here for"

falloff she's evil

I dunno, I don't think Mase is on the DL but I think Diddy always has been. Haven't you guys heard this from other sources besides Wendy? I've heard that rumor about Diddy forever it seems.

That is one person I doubt will EVER go on her show! But then it shocked me! When Whoopi Goldberg went on there, after YEARS & YEARS of Wendy saying how UGLY she was and how she looked like a monkey on her radio show!

prince inviting her to dinner was a shocked to me also. Because she has said some HORRIBLE things about him for YEARS & NEVER liked him. Now she has shut her mouth up! Some peeps you have to treat with kindness when their so evil to you. I've learned that dealing with the constant HATE thrown and said about me HERE. Its part of being famous and envied. You just expect it & move on.. So HATERS hate on. I love U!! biggrin

eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince
