Unbeweavable Wendy Williams to sweep the nation

Wendywilliams_l Maybe it's just me and The Soup who are excited about this, but after a six-week trial period in four major cities (read our Spot Inspection here), The Wendy Williams Show will be syndicated in mid-2009. What a wonderful day for people who enjoy frank penis discussions and hate Omarosa -- conveniently, everyone! Wendy's patented brand of bitchery is still not quite "household" status beyond the greater NYC area, so after the jump, for your listening (dis)pleasure, is the classic (give or take "classic") Wendy vs. Whitney Houston interview from WBLS in 2003. The whole thing's a half-hour long, but if you're in the mood for some whacked-out background noise that'll surely cause you to gape at your screen at inopportune times and last night's episode of The Hills isn't doin' it for you, by all means, go for it.

Am I the only one who thinks she looks like Lord Voldemort with a weave?

That's good news! I actually like Williams and her hot mess of a show! it took me a few episodes to figure out that she wasnt a man, though.

I love Wendy!She's been a friend in my head for years, after listening to her radio show on BLS for as long as she's been there. I am so happy for her, she deserves this.

I can hardly stand her when Joel parodies her on The Soup. Save us all!

Dear God make it stop!

If this were Wendy O. Williams of Plasmatics fame, then I'd be interested in watching. Too bad she's dead...

I just discovered her here in Dallas and already I love her.

Today NYC, tomorrow, the Continent!

I still laugh whenever I think of Joel's reaction to her calling "Transformers 2" "The Performers 2": "There's going to be a 'Performers 2'?" The interns at E! are going to be sooo happy about this news. :)
