Wendy Williams is ‘Deeply’ Apologetic for Her Comments about Gay Men

After being dragged over social media for her comments about gay men, talk show host Wendy Williams apologized.

On Thursday’s show, Williams told gay men to stop wearing [women’s] skirts and our heels. Today, Williams released a video apology.

She said, I’ll start by saying I apologize. I did not mean to offend my LGBTQ+ community on yesterday’s show. I did not realize until I got home and I watched the second running of our show here in New York, and I always watch when I can to critique my delivery or the cameras, the lights, the audience, the camera. I’m very persnickety about how I do my show and one thing that I can tell you right now is that I never do this show in a place of malice.

Williams further added, I’m 55 years old, and maybe I sounded like your auntie, your mother, your big sister or somebody out of touch. I’m not out of touch, except for perhaps yesterday by saying what I said. So, I deeply apologize and I deeply appreciate the support that I get from the community. I will do better. I appreciate you supporting me. Thank you.
