Wendy Williams is no stranger to speaking her mind and calling out other celebrities, and now the talk show queen has a bone to pick with actress Vivica A. Fox.
It was just confirmed recently that Vivica A. Fox will be on the upcoming season of “Hollywood Divas,” and Wendy seems to think it’s a bad look for her.
On a recent episode of her talk show, she says:
“Vivica Fox, I love you, but I hate this idea. You are above this. For goodness sake, you were in Pulp Fiction! What are you doing joining the cast of Hollywood Divas?
“Now, there’s nothing wrong with Hollywood Divas and shows like that….but they are for a certain echelon of people. When I think of Vivica A. Fox, I’m not comparing her to Golden Brooks, from Girlfriends.
“Golden Brooks was on Girlfriends; respectable career, but where has she been? She’s not supposed to be in the same room, on the same cast as Vivica A. Fox. That’s all I’m saying.”
And as far as Vivica’s “Celebrity Apprentice” appearances go, Wendy says it’s a different situation:
“It would be like if Mary J. Blige joined the cast of ‘R&B Divas’….Yeah, she was on ‘Celebrity Apprentice’, but that’s the higher tier of reality TV. But what I’m trying to do is show more respect for her to be a real diva of Hollywood…”
Do you agree with Wendy? Check out the video below. The Vivica talk starts at the 6:04 mark.
It’s not like Viv has a lot of movies lined up right now. It’s hard out here for black actresses. Let her get check in peace Wendy.
Viv is still getting roles though.
Exactly.
Wendy gets on my damn nerves but she told no lies. I remember the Kenya haters on here bragging on Viv’s movie resume and talking bout she has a better career than Kenya because she doesn’t have to do reality shows to stay afloat. But now y’all will say it’s not a big deal and such and such because that’s what y’all do. *giggles*
Umm Vivica has a major movie coming out next year and it ain’t straight to DVD.
Lol shade!!
You can throw that weak shade all you want sis. Y’all know good and well Vivica keeps doing reality shows because she’s not getting a lot of offers like she used to. Maybe if she didn’t botch her face up so bad she could have been Cookie on Empire. She would have been perfect for that part. Oh well.
Try again twirl Vivica doesn’t have to do the show to stay a float.Let’s get something straight Vivica does and has a career what does Kenya have outside of winning Miss USA. Straight to DVD movies, one or maybe two liners on sitcoms. She had to do RHOA for people to remember her and just wait boo when RHOA is long gone she will go ghost and be forgotten once again.
She’s got Independence Day 2 coming out, and filmed that pilot with Demetria. But it’s hard out there right now. That wig line ain’t pulling in the coin, and she needs to keep working. At least we know she’ll drive Golden and Paula crazy since she’s a bigger name than both their a-ses.
Well this shemale does have a point Vivica shouldn’t be doing a show like this. She is about to do Independence Day 2 with Will Smith she doesn’t have to do this show.
I don’t see a problem as long as she’s still getting real work outside of reality shows, which she is. She’s going to be in the Independence Day sequel and it will be split into two parts I believe. She’s not struggling.
Viv has been getting steady work since 1989. Her IMDB page is popping. She is doing reality shows because she wants to. She doesn’t have to so that’s the big difference.
Wendy is so fake. She doesn’t care about Vivica’s career. The truth is if Vivica was on top right now she’d be on her show dragging her like she does Beyonce and Rihanna. I always laugh when she tries to fake being concerned about black women.
Twirl you’re so delusional. Kenya wishes she had Vivica’s acting career and you know it.
But Wendy got on by trashing celebrities and still does to get ratings. She shouldn’t try to shame anyone for their career decisions considering hers.
Im such a Kenya fan… I love reading a story bout any reality show n Ms Moore becomes the topic… Yes please lol
A topic where? Sorry Boo, Boo but Kenya is a side note in this story….per usual. You might want to try reading these comments again.
This story had zilch to do with her but yet and still shes the focus in yall comments.. U might want to re read these comments sugar pie.
Wendell needs to worry about flipping some of dem big ole bitties to her ironing board back side.
