Wendy Williams “Overheats” & Passes Out On Live Television, Twitter Reacts

Wow! Wendy Williams gave her audience and viewers quite the scare during her Halloween show and it was most definitely NOT a trick! The host passed out live on air.

Dressed as the Statue of Liberty, Wendy celebrated Halloween with her “co-hosts” during today’s live broadcast (Oct. 31).

However, mid-way through Wendy introducing her annual costume contest, “How You Booin’?” when she began slurring her words and noticeably began to shake. The host stumbled and fell to the floor as crew rushed to her aid and the director cut to black.

Following the commercial break, a conscious Wendy explained to the audience that she “overheated” due to her costume. “That was not a stunt,” she said trying to be upbeat. “I overheated in my costume and I did pass out. But do you know what? I’m a champ and I’m back!”

Wendy was able to complete the show and is reportedly expected to film shows for the rest of the week.

A rep for the show further explained Wendy overheated due to her bulky costume, heavy make-up and bright studio lights. But if her costume was the cause, why did she return still wearing the full Statue of Liberty costume?

Meanwhile, Ronn Torossian, a spokesperson for Wendy, says the host fainted because of dehydration.

“Ms. Williams fainted on-air this morning. She is dehydrated and is on her way home for a good day and night of sleep. She has been examined by medical professionals and is well. She is OK and will continue as shows as planned,” Torossian said.

“She will address this on-air tomorrow. She has never missed a day of work and is looking forward on November 13th to her 1500th show.”

We wish the talk show host a speedy recovery!

Here are a few Twitter reactions to Wendy Williams fainting on-air:

Kim Kardashian Dressed as Aaliyah for Halloween and Black Twitter Was NOT Here For It

Happy Halloween, courtesy of Kim Kardashian. The reality star kicked off All Hallows’ Eve by channeling her inner Cher. However, it’s her second costume that has outraged Black Twitter, causing them to drag Miss Kardashian-West.

On Saturday night (Oct. 28), Kim decided to dress as the late R&B icon Aaliyah. She used the singer’s 2000 “Try Again” music video for her inspiration.

Black Twitter was NOT happy with Kim’s choice of costume and dragged her for trying to emulate the Princess of R&B. “Aaliyah” even became a top five trending topic.

However, not everyone opposed Kim’s Aaliyah costume, especially since she didn’t use any form of blackface.

On Friday night (Oct. 27), Kim attended Casamigos’ annual Halloween bash as Cher at the 1973 Academy Awards. She was accompanied by her best friend Jonathan Cheban dressed as Sonny Bono.

This was definitely a better choice.

Offset Proposes to Cardi B On Stage During “Powerhouse” Concert, Twitter Reacts to the Happy News

Cardi B is most definitely having the best year of her life. Not only is she currently the hottest rapper in the game right now, but boyfriend Offset just sprinkled 8 carats worth of diamonds on her already decadent cake.

Cardi B and Offset are officially engaged!

Offset proposed to Cardi Friday night (Oct. 27) at the Power 99 Powerhouse concert in Philadelphia at the Wells Fargo Center in front of thousands of screaming fans. The “Bodak Yellow” emcee could barely contain her excitement as Offset got on one knee. And she definitely was surprised!

Instagram Photo

Offset went all out for his queen too (as he should)! The engagement ring is a large 8-karat pear-shaped diamond. “She said yes,” he wrote on social media as he showed off the ring.


Cardi also shared her joy on Instagram. She wrote in one post:

“Jesus Christ I’m so emotional, @offsetyrn I loveee you so much .Thank you for seeing the potential in me since you met me .For giving me advice molding me and loving me .Your such a amazing man to me your family ,friends ,kids and you are extremely talented.I can’t wait to spend FOREVAAAA with you. Lets make a lot shmoney and love together.”

Instagram Photo

In another post, she shared a close-up of her ring and hoped it wasn’t all dream. “Thank you God for all these blessings,” she wrote. “Thank you babe @offsetyrn God really sent you to me.”

Instagram Photo

It was only a week ago that Twitter freaked out when Cardi insinuated she had dumped Offset, and Twitter was freaking out for a much happier reason once news of the couple’s engagement went viral.

Cardi and Offset began dating earlier this year and actually had to shut down engagement rumors just a few months ago. Well, now it’s no longer rumors and speculation; it’s the real deal. We wish the happy couple well.
