ignore the talk show the wendy williams show is entering its fifth season one of the most popular programs in daytime i was shocked that it's been this successful for this long it's amazing yes i am yes because you are like me you came from radio game from radio and the how did you get this whole gig to begin with the phone rang the phone rang in two thousand and seven in the fall of two thousand and seven it was more marcus and i were bernstein they are dead more mercury they're the ones who produce the show and their parent company is lion's gate so they wanted to do this thing called a six weeks week and they wanted to do it with me a talk show the six weeks and yet now a lot of people are doing it kris jenner just came off doing it bethany got her talk show from doing it you know try it out into the writing try it for six weeks or four weeks during the summer with a new year of more and i recall about eight months later. next thing you know i'm

on t.v. on four fox stations l.a. new york dallas or dallas and detroit and i maintain my radio position while doing the six week sneak peak because i was having a good time in radio almost twenty five years i was making a decent living i was very very happy i had my family and all the sudden. the talk show came along the roses you gave up the reviewer. for me seventeen years ago when i was both when i saw those a kid i was twenty two ordered room and told that i was low both men are always allowed to do both because men don't maintain the household i'm not saying anything i'm just saying you put me down or you know i'm going to let you know i hold on we're all up putting women up you see even after a long day on the set where my guest is larry king and i've got tons of hot topics and ask wendy you know get home and make sure that the food is gathered for dinner make sure the dishwasher is emptied or empty it myself i mean even if we don't do all the work in our head as you were the house managers are you doing i'm doing well how did that start how did ok that's the way you actually say it how did.

ok because where you say yes we used to have a gay character in our morning show many many years ago i did a morning show in philadelphia and the gay character would come in and all the heterosexual smelly guys i worked with they would know how to address this gay character i don't like when you talk to the man it's not going to make you gay how do you do it would shauntay and then we just started from there. now i keep it going because i feel as though that's a friendly way to walk in the room it breaks up the crowd so that people don't think i'm there for evil i'm there for good cause i'm a very tall woman i want to talk about the book in a little lot of other things ok why is this show worked if you can stick a step back and look at it objectively honestly the host. really yes does that sound big headed know well as your show yeah i'm going to tell you why. i left radio. perfectly great career to fully concentrate on this t.v.

show i am surrounded by a great staff of people who i listen to with open ears i'm one of the executive producers as well so you know those are my husband exactly producer he's also my manager and then there's david pearler and most recently. a fellow by the name of jason but i will tell you that as a woman of a particular age sometimes it's very hard for us to open our heads to new ideas you know because i'll say no all day instead now i say no convince me why it should be so i'm a host that's willing to listen to criticism good and bad but i'm also one host i'm very comfortable on the camera i'm not i'm not scared to be laughed at fall or cry secret is no secret there is no secret you have to be yourself and good talk show host is not creative create created it's she's born do you check grange every day do you look like it was syndicated you could be strong in detroit week in

memphis. and to leave oh yeah no i leave those people who are obsessing about the ratings and my team they're always obsessed and everything but i i run running this t.v. race with blinders on the way i wrote my radio race i'm of therapy and i don't need to look to the left or right i'm competing against myself did you start in tova as an anchor in philadelphia what was what would you deal no i'm from jersey and i went to college in boston and i knew from the time i was in sixth grade that i wanted to be there newscaster or radio personality and i wanted to matriculate in boston and i graduated from northeastern university. i worked on the college radio station which is where i started newscasting and then i realized that i don't think being a newscaster is exactly in the wheel house for how i want to be as a woman you know i even back then i had a bit of flamboyancy with me which is really will be acceptable at the news desk although nowadays newscasters are like showgirls you know back in the day. that's

not who they were and i don't think i was calling out for radio but i got an internship with a fellow by the name of matt siegel at kiss want to eat in boston he still there it casts and and i've since been back since having my talk show to thank him it was oprah arguments for a show yeah oh it was an inspiration but you know oprah's first couple of years on t.v. over started in one nine hundred eighty six you see i graduated from college in eighty six and then i was so busy moving around from the virgin islands to d.c. i worked afternoon shift i was so busy hustling i really wasn't watching a lot of t.v. during the day for her first maybe two or three years but yes of course oprah was a great inspiration. as well as in my earlier years dinah shore and merv griffin and mike douglas and just even as a young girl in third in second grade larry i remember adoring talk shows were your was just so you know that's yeah done in short you know i don't know you know been on her show

a few times always great company can i tell you one of my favorite guests thank you and i'm not i'm not saying that just because i'm sitting here with you. i was a little apprehensive about meeting you at first because like i said larry is a legend of the ledger he might not understand who you know my audience everybody's colorful they're a bit last we're very outspoken overheating and i'm a newer person on the block even though i'm going into my fifth season i know when you come to new york you'll go to rip you'll go to the view when you talk to your old friend barbara walters but you were open to new things and you done with you and when you came that first time i cannot believe how much fun you are and then you came back a second time and now i'm here with you but. let's discuss some of those who my friend then does include the one you're willing to be carried over so you can cancel jeff probst wonderful guy now and a good host. why do we can you measure because. you know the public is so fickle you know there's so many great shows that are on t.v.

that get cancelled right away i'm still wondering what happened in g c b i'm still wondering what happened to the playboy club and pan am remember those shows on every say like three episodes and they're gone you know winery there is no rhyme or reason you can say well it's a full market there too many talk shows but long after propes new shows are coming on long after you know generous six weeks they pick next summer that we somebody else i don't know the rhyme or reason if you think too hard about it. my own awhile you think did not go through so. i don't think people have time to pay attention episodic you know where one episode runs into the next during the day you know the economy is bad and people. are working hard and and i believe it is my belief that people want lighter fare when it comes to daytime t.v. or your food competition. with

a closed mouth and open ears what they say and. do you know i love competition and i do believe that there's room for everybody just world it's just how long everybody stays there but there are a thousand channels now on t.v. so there is room someplace for everybody we don't have to be crabs in a barrel with only ten channels now people think also but because she could do one thing well you can do him over this not most of the true lies this is the holy grail of my career though i mean there's nothing higher career wise than doing a talk show with your own name. a word or words wrong or what's the hot topic of late i mean people are still talking about miley cyrus twerking people are talking about lamar odom is he on drugs will chloe stay with him what will happen to his clippers career why do we talk about this puzzles me and i have to subject you can't do television and not talk about it however does pose a way as to why. the. hot topics are so juicy lamar odom

could lead over syria. supporting that to me i like limbaugh but i but he leaned over syria because. as embarrassing as it might be to a lot of people many people care about pop culture and the nonsense. because it's light conversation that often. people leave because they might not be good communicators do you realize how special it is for people like me and you we possess something we can go to a room by ourselves and totally start a conversation with anybody i don't know if that's how you are with that's how i am i'm not scared to get on the stage in front of thousands of people and i don't need to an entourage to walk into a room and talk to everybody about anything and these hot topics are in very calm in non-threatening thing to mention you go to

a dinner party and you talk about syria well that you have political opinions there's some people like me i don't like to talk my politics in public that's kitchen table talk because at the white grew up but to say you know how about that miley cyrus well now now we've got a conversation that's water because it's one of course not but that's how you get a conversation going a light conversation leads to a deeper one do you know how many people out there are socially inept. people that make wads of money brilliant people that do wonderful things to not be able to communicate has got to be crippling people who sweat you know when the thought of going to a party. people sweat at the thought of giving you know the presentation at a meeting the biggest fear in america is problems of b.b. king for. us is a joke i know that's white collar crime yes it is i mean it's a joke you know what i got on my bucket list for this season i want to do stand up

oh i've been doing that for years that i love that they pay for the stand and told stories. do you try it i'm going to try it i turned fifty this season five and so the show was asking me you know make a list of stuff that you've always wanted to do what i wanted to talk about when i was it like working with your husband i love it it doesn't work for everybody but you know but everybody's got to know their roles when we come back we'll ask about the book when be a straight up advice for all the drama of your life all the drama. right back. when he walked into the house he looked fine happen now and later he jumped in his

car in people were calling nine one one. hundred miles an hour. traffic his car landed and. it was a horrible rendering to a beautiful life. if you could have been an american because he happened to eddie. i want to. pick up something that is quite simply a. place was no way. clearly they were just at the wrong place at the wrong time. and sold to the u.s. or turned over to the u.s. for. the sole that could be buried alive. was saved with great effort. and they wanted to turn me into

a terrorist so it was they wanted me to admit that i was a member of al qaeda or taliban or that i fought with them. about time i didn't even know what al qaeda is nevertheless there are people. brave enough to start a fight. something's going to be done that's going to be done by me i have a short amount of time but it's going to impact me be prosecuted but it's not going to impact. a wife my daughter. the one time a trap. on our team. when he was extended for another year an enormous success in daytime television before that in radio in the world of water should she appeared in chicago on the broadway stage try to ask about that a little while but tell me about wendy the book says straight up advice for all the dreams in your life well drama it's called ask wendy and it happens to be

a segment that i do on my talk show i used to do it on my radio show as well for many many years and it's simply you asked me a question a conundrum in your life whether it's your sex life your dating life dealing with your mother dealing with the p.t.a. . you ask me why i'm not a licensed professional but i am a woman with an opinion and sometimes it's best to get opinions from a stranger then from your favorite three girlfriends. who are always there to keep drilling it in your head that you're having this problem me to be serious but is there a danger in that you say to someone get divorced. no because i say well said you're asking wendy i'm going to give you you know my best opinion that i can sometimes divorce is needed. so you will say yes and i would also walk her through it don't do it you have to start plotting and planning a divorce from the time you execute it to the time you think about it there should

be at least six months to a year in between to be good but when you do so for those that you do have had some problems you so yes i have you had well i was married for five months and i had to plot an escape from my ex husband so you know that was many many years ago but believe me he was trying to give me a problem like we were married for five years i had a cocaine a substance abuse problem who are you from about just. twenty to thirty years yeah so i was making great money i had no college loans my parents bought me a car for my college graduation i was making great money i fell into you know nice radio career a little bit early on i was in new york young in pretty new york city girl staying out all night you know how it is in radio hanging out is what you do for a living it was the best you know coke was cheap. i was very independent i did not have to get high with a bunch of friends i always had my own money and never had to go broke off of it was your break you. did up around my thirtieth birthday when i met kevin.

you know that i wanted to get married again but i knew that i wanted better in my life and i was very grateful that i had never been busted speeding on the west side highway you know with a crack pipe in the you know in the in the ashtray my mom and dad are still alive and i wanted better for myself so i just stopped i was one of those fortunate people i did not go to rehab and i've never looked back no and i've never looked back you also disposed body image. i mean i still have a problem i guess to a certain extent you know i'm always food is a big part of my life denying myself indulging and going to the gym and working it off checking angles in the mirror yes larry you know i come from an average size family my my height comes from. my paternal grandmother and she was passed away so i never had any women to speak to about what it's like to be five feet eight by the time you hit a grade i've never been to a problem i always was the face just

a little loose in the waist you know what i mean plus being tall see when you were tall girl they expect two things of you your supermodel or basketball player and i'm no athlete and i you know i'm not a model so i mean the best thing for me to do was to have this talk show because now. i'm up top for no reason so the book contains questions from real people yes my real wendy watchers everything sex there's the one that comes to my mind is married couple to marry for like ten or twelve years or something and he wants to have a threesome and she's thinking about letting it go down and you say no why not because this is what happens as a woman and not all women are like this larry but as a woman we are soft and pink we can try to play hard and play hard ball in the boardroom and everything like that but when it comes to love we can take a drive by once or twice three times but if you look at his eyes and all you need

is that one hard day at work and lonely night and they got to look i submit to being a girl you know. how long do you enjoy doing shoes argo yes how long you do it seven weeks but worst part was preparing because the active member all those lines. and two songs i had to sing we've ever seen or you know why they can't shoot. because major mama morton they thought that i'd be perfect for that also take it right sell tickets i was doing the talk show and the chicago at the same time so it was a really busy time this summer so you have a new orleans when did you or her show do you show yeah you can take off from the show never never that she ran and did the broadway i was an absentee mom thank god he finished with flying colors all good grades you know i was absentee mom kind of an absentee wife i was opening night blog for you know this is different this is

and when we when i'm in the script now. and a beige you show yeah the major show i'm surprised i didn't cry my mom and dad were there my dad is eighty three and my mom is seventy nine so my mom and dad were there course my husband my son a whole bunch of wendy's staffers and then we had a party up the street at you know one of the watering holes how was it magical when i open the stage door i couldn't believe there were actually people out there. there are actually people out there and i was saying to songs i started this other song and called class with one of the two major actresses in it so you know you don't want to mess her up by being bad so it was a lot of pressure you great role over the larry runs the prison larry if they called me i'd do it again i had the best summer it really was a wonderful experience and guess what else i got out of that oh my gosh one of the head writers at the a.b.c. sitcom neighbors was in the audience and saw me playing mama i didn't know this and

called up my office for me to come out and play a role on the show so i did that just a couple weeks ago where did you play your mama pretty much a sassy black woman who owns a hair salon in jersey that's a mama. i'm so you know and hector's yes i'm a hack stress and a single i'm a center what's next. george to do you haven't done well. gee i told you to stand up but does that to me can i just say nothing moves again without the talk show so the talk show and you might think of them pulling from the low fruit on the tree i know you're very ambitious man. hosting a talk show my own show is the best thing ever beats work guess you know but but what i like to do i don't have the standard i guess we have some social media questions for you did you call on twitter wants to know what was some

of the biggest challenges to overcome to get where you are no. not being intimidated by anyone scrutinizing who wendy is. in the m.m.s. how do you keep your address to be to be bold in the face of adversity. because. i just do and it hasn't come overnight as you know you know you get more confident with every year of your life so bald is second nature to me now you are a bold person when these team on instagram once and it was a good team i don't know where you are seven book we about oh i'm working on it right now i actually have the most manuscript in my bag what is it about it is a sexy romantic novel and it will be coming out well i have to turn it in like two weeks. there's no title yet beyond good james on google plus s.
