Wendy Williams

I didn't have the easiest childhood. I was never the popular girl in school growing up. I was always the lone black girl or the lone fat girl or the long tall girl, so that has made me more compassionate to all people. It also gave me the drive and ambition to go after my dreams in a big way.

I think the biggest issue for women in the workplace is men!

There's no worse way to insult a woman than by saying she looks like a man, but once a woman gets over that, there is no stronger woman.

I view myself as a multicultural woman who happens to be black.

People say a lot of mess about celebrities. In the social media world, celebrities are able to go online and see nice things and horrible things written about them - but these people on the Internet wouldn't have the guts to say it to their face.

I have been reporting on celebrity stuff my whole career and am very aware that fame is a slippery slope.

People have accused me of bleaching my skin, of getting a nose job. They squint at my mom, like, 'I didn't know Wendy was Asian.' I am black all day, honey pie. I am black and very proud.

You're only as good as your last performance.

Because I come from the place of interviewing, I know how to answer a question giving you what you need to hear and not a minute more.

There's some really disgusting places out there who just throw some lentil together and think that just because you don't eat meat, you're gonna eat this slop.

Mixtapes were the soundtrack, back in my day, of peoples' lives.

Parents, you need to watch who you let loose your girls around. If you're so desperate that you want your kids to be stars, and you're going to unleash your daughters to the world, you better watch what you get.
