Wendy Williams's Most Famous Feuds

The host has beefed with everyone from Whitney to Lil Kim.

Fight Club - Wendy Williams is notorious for "saying it like she means it" on her talk show, but sometimes that gets her in a heap of mess with other celebrities or their fans — or, in some cases, both. From the brutal stings of the BeyHive to the Arianators coming for her wig, here are Wendy Williams's most famous feuds to date.(Photos from left: Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images, Rob Kim/Getty Images, Tibrina Hobson/Getty Images)

Chris Brown - Back in 2013, Chris Brown had the Twitter fingers when he went after Perez Hilton and his appearance on the Wendy Williams Show. Hilton had said prior to his appearance that he hoped Breezy wouldn’t watch the show, to which the singer responded: "Thanks for the publicity. Your insecurities are manifested by your hatred. Princess Perez and wicked witch Wendy. Flunkies!" Earlier this year, Williams broke down during her show when discussing CB’s alleged drug abuse. “This is serious,” she said while tearing up. “I think there a lot of people in his camp enjoying the spiralization.”

Evelyn Lozada - Wendy definitely brought out the protective mother in the Basketball Wives star when she referred to Lozada's newborn baby as a "cash register" (Lozada's baby's father is MLB player Carl Crawford), and the reality star wasted no time in retaliating. Lozada exposed Williams's husband's shopping habits — for other women — on Twitter. "#NowPutThatOnHotTopics," she taunted. (Photo: Paul Archuleta/FilmMagic)

Ariana Grande - Grande’s fans slammed Williams after she said that the pop star will always look like a child. “She’ll forever look 12. I don’t mean that in a good way,” Williams said. “It’s nice to look younger than you are, but when you look too young, and she’s short… I don’t look at her as a woman.” Williams’s comments led to the singer’s fans accusing the host of body shaming and also caused the Twitter hashtag “#CancelWendyWilliamsShow” to become a trending topic. Unfortunately for them, Wendy fans far outnumber Arianators. “Right now they’re wasting their breath,” said Williams of the effort to get her canceled.  (Photo: Larry Busacca/Getty Images)

Beyoncé - We don't doubt Wendy can handle herself when it comes to feuding with most celebrities, but dissing Bey is crossing the line for some. It all began earlier this year when Wendy discussed Beyonce's possible pregnancy announcement, stating that she doesn't believe Bey is pregnant and accused her of "manipulating the media." She then goes on to call the "Drunk in Love" singer inarticulate. "She's not a very good talker," Williams tells her audience. "If you hear her talk, you're gonna need closed captioning on your TV." Wendy was unfazed by the wrath of the Beyhive, and decided to come for them as well. "She's got these super fans who have no life outside of her!" (Photo: Larry Busacca/Getty Images for MTV)

Kim Zolciak - After Wendy implyed on her show that Zolciak had staged her hospitalization (due to a mini-stroke) in an effort to garner sympathy votes on Dancing With the Stars, the reality star couldn't stay silent. "Absolutely appalling!! @wendywilliams how disgusting for you to insinuate I 'faked' my mini stroke on your show this morning!!" she posted, along with a screen grab of an email from a Wendy staffer asking her to appear on the show last week. "You mad cause I didn't come on your show! This clearly shows your warped mentality!!"  (Photo: Charles Sykes/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images)

Master P - In May, 2014, Wendy discussed Master P's tumultuous relationship with his estranged wife and children. In response, the rapper said, "I thought Wendy Williams was my friend. I understand that her job is to entertain gossip, but how could she keep picking up TMZ gossip as if it was real news when she should have contacted me directly if she was really concerned about my family?" In July, 2014, the pair made up on Wendy's purple couch.(Photo: Chelsea Lauren/Getty Images for BET)

NeNe Leakes on Kenya Moore possibly faking her relationship with Walter Jackson: - “I've been a Real Housewife of Atlanta for five seasons, going into my sixth season and everything we do on the show is legit. We're not scripted. We are real. So, to look at Kenya and Walter [Jackson] and to know they did something that was unethical to our franchise, I feel is awful.”  (Photo: Theo Wargo/Getty Images)

NeNe Leakes - These former besties sparked a Housewives-worthy feud when Williams criticized the reality star's relationship with her on-again husband, Gregg, telling her audience she felt their relationship "lacked chemistry." NeNe responded, "She don't know s*** about my relationship. Have you ever seen her and Kevin [Hunter] kiss? Yuck." The drama continued and recently Wendy criticized the reality star for decorating an expensive Birkin bag. NeNe held no punches, writing an open letter to Wendy: "What you need to do is stop spewing hate! When it comes to gossip you are the lowest of the low!" (Photo: Theo Wargo/Getty Images)

Kandi Burruss - The Real Housewives of Atlanta star and her mother, "Mama" Joyce Jones, have had their share of differences, but they proved that blood is thicker than water when Wendy attacked Kandi's relationship with Todd Tucker. Rather than drive a wedge into the relationship, Wendy's shade actually made Mama Joyce defend her daughter's decisions. As they say: the enemy of your enemy is your friend.  (Photo:  Wilford Harewood/Bravo/NBCU Photo Bank/ Getty Images)

Janet Hubert - Aunt Viv clearly prefers her beef one-sided. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air star penned a malicious open letter to Williams after the talk show host dared to bring up her ongoing feud with Will Smith. Like Smith, Williams didn't bother to respond.   (Photo: Chris Haston/NBCU Photo Bank)

LeAnn Rimes - The country singer has taken it from all sides for stealing Eddie Cibrian away from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville, but Williams was the straw that broke the camel's back. After Williams called her double-adulterous affair with Cibrian "sloppy," Rimes tweeted that she was surprised at how "mean and judgmental" the chat queen was. That all seems to be water under the bridge now, as both Rimes and Cibrian sat on the Wendy couch and chatted it up with the queen of gossip about their new reality show, LeAnn & Eddie. Gotta get in that promo, right? (Photo: Kris Connor/Getty Images)

Lil Kim - It takes some serious you-know-what to spark a feud with Kim, but Wendy went there when she called out Kim for her, um, altered facial features. Kim blasted the media star on Twitter, calling her a "hating b***h" and starting an unsubstantiated rumor that Wendy was dumped by Notorious B.I.G. back in the day. Even at 4-foot-11 Kim isn't afraid to show Wendy who's boss.(Photo: Greg Doherty/Getty Images)

Omarosa - Think the Celebrity Apprentice star's feud with La Toya Jackson was bad? It ain't nothin' compared to the beef she had with Williams. The bad blood dates back to 2008, when Williams called Omarosa a "typical angry Black woman" on her show after the reality star referred to her as "disrespectful." The beef was so strong between these two that Williams even skipped out on the coveted White House Correspondents Dinner in 2010 because she would be seated next to "that delusional, pathetic, D-list woman." They seemed to have resolved their differences when Omarosa returned to Williams's show later that year.  (Photo: Maury Phillips/Getty Images for BET)

Method Man - If there's one troublemaking moment Williams regrets, it's likely this one: Back in her radio days, the host crossed a line when she revealed on-air that Meth's wife had cancer, a matter that the couple had been trying to keep under wraps so as to not worry their families. If that wasn't enough, Wendy took it a step further and insinuated the Wu-Tang lyricist was having an affair with the doctor treating his wife. Meth understandably blew his top, even recording a video message slamming the talk show host for spreading hurtful gossip.  (Photo: Scott Dudelson/Getty Images)

Diddy @iamdiddy - Tweet: "The Harlem Shake controversy is finally cleared up! Thank you MSNBC and @MHarrisPerry for letting the world know! http://tinyurl.com/b3gfbey "Diddy’s sends a shout out of thanks to Melissa Harris Perry for placing the Harlem Shake in its proper historical and cultural context on her MSNBC weekend morning politics show. (Photo: David Tonnessen, PacificCoastNews.com)

Diddy - This is one feud that had real consequences for Williams: After she insinuated that he might be gay, Diddy the all-powerful sent the suits after Williams and actually got her taken off the radio airwaves for a while. Careful who you mess with, Wendy!  (Photo: David Tonnessen, PacificCoastNews.com)

Whitney Houston and Bobbi Kristina Brown - A decade after the infamous radio interview during which Williams called out Houston for her drug abuse, sparking a lifelong contention between the pair, Bobbi Kristina Brown stepped up to the daytime diva. After Williams went after Whitney's daughter for her relationship with "brother" Nick Gordon and struggles over Whitney's will, the then 19-year-old told reporters "my family don't like Wendy because she always have something to say about us. That's why mom put her in her right spot." Sadly, Bobbi Kristina's tragic death in summer 2015 may have Wendy regretting her glib remarks.(Photo: Jason Merritt/Getty Images)

Will Smith - You gotta do something pretty bad to piss off Mr. Nice Guy. The A-list actor and sometimes-rapper put Williams on blast in his track "Mr. Nice Guy" for discussing his personal life on her show. "I'm not your punching bag/ Better leave me alone/ I'm gonna buy your radio station and send you home," raps Smith in the track. Even Wendy's gotta admit, it's pretty flattering to get name-checked by a mega-star like Smith. (Photo: Gregg DeGuire/WireImage)
