Wendy Williams Apologizes For Slurring On Her Show, And Blamed It On Painkillers

Looks like all of those friends of Wendy Williams who were worried about her health have more to think about. Mieka reported earlier this week that people in Wendy’s orbit are concerned for her health. She’s fainted on live TV, she took three weeks off, people say she’s been “checked out”, she fractured her arm, and she’s sitting too much on TV. Well, add another issue to Wendy’s growing list, because people were noticing that on Wendy’s show yesterday she was slurring her words like I do on my birthday.

Wendy had The Lox on her show yesterday and the interview was… sort of messy. She fell on her words at the beginning and seemed out of it, but she managed to get through it.

Wendy’s viewers wondering if something was going on since she was off her game. So Miss Wendy explained on Instagram that the painkillers she’s taking for her busted arm have fucked with her a bit:

To My Wendy Watchers, I sincerely apologize if you feel that today's show was less than stellar. I’m on your TV screens every day wanting to spread laughter, entertainment and cheer. As I reported earlier in the week, I have a hairline fracture on my upper arm, which hurts like hell. I’ve never broken a bone or experienced a fracture in my life. In the key place where the fracture is, and trying to scurry around and do too much, I am now paying the price. I've never taken a pain medication in my life (except when I got snatched over 20 years ago) until this week. I did that to power through and try to deliver a great show for you, against the better judgement of the many people around me who genuinely care for my well-being. I really do ride or die for my craft and give 200%. Not to mention everyone is aware at this point about my thyroid condition (don’t cry for me Argentina). For all my fellow thyroid sufferers, you know what the deal is. And for those that don’t: I encourage you to please read up. Needless to say, whatever today's performance was with the legendary The Lox, who said such nice things, I have no regrets and I appreciate everyone’s genuine concern for my wellness and care. I promise you a better Wendy in 2019. I will get some much needed rest and healing over these next couple of weeks. (Yes I am definitely juicing over the next couple of weeks). Sorry again. I love you all. Happy Holidays!

I love how Wendy Williams thinks she’s “ride or die” for her “craft” which 100% involves sipping tea prepared by an unpaid intern while talking shit about rich and famous people while sitting in a plush custom-made chair. I also ride or die for my craft, which is smoking weed and writing shit about rich and famous people while sitting in an IKEA loveseat which is missing a screw somewhere. Where’s my recognition? Huh?

Hopefully Wendy Williams gets back to 100%. I’d hate for the world to miss out on more of Wendy’s famous, bitchy, life-saving shade than it needs to. Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear huge curly honey brown wigs and skin tone lipstick.
