Wendy Williams just landed herself in hot water with Beyonce Knowles'
fans. The talk show host had some harsh words for Beyonce while
discussing the singer's newly-released trailer for the HBO documentary
on her Thursday, December 6 show.
Wendy began with a statement that she is a fan of Beyonce. And then she
said, "I'm gonna watch her upcoming documentary, because fortunately one
of the TVs in our kitchen has closed captioning, so I'll be able to
understand what she says. You know Beyonce can't talk. She sounds like
she has a fifth grade education. She can't talk. Honestly."
Her studio audience immediately booed at Wendy, prompting her to defend
herself. "Excuse me, I just said I was a fan. But we have to call a
spade a spade," she said in her attempt to backtrack her comment.
Beyonce's documentary, which she will direct herself, is slated to air
February 16, 2013. It contains concert footage and some personal
interviews with the diva. "Everybody knows Beyonce's music, but few know
Beyonce the person," said Michael Lombardo, HBO president of
programming, in a statement about the film. "Along with electrifying
footage of Beyonce onstage, this unique special looks beyond the glamour
to reveal a vibrant, vulnerable, unforgettable woman."
