Wendy Williams Breaks Silence on Diddy Case: ‘It Is About Time’


The former radio and television host has a long and tumultuous history with the fallen business mogul.

Before endearing herself to American households with her nationally syndicated daytime talkshow The Wendy Williams Show, she was the rap industry’s gossip queen on popular NYC-area radio stations like Hot 97 and WBLS. Williams and Diddy have had their fair share of run-ins, most notably in 1998 when the mogul allegedly got the then-radio show host fired from her Hot 97 gig, at least according to her protégé Charlamagne Tha God, who mentioned the rumor during an appearance on the Flagrant podcast.
