Wendy Williams Show announces Remy Ma & Fat Joe as new guest hosts as ailing diva’s return to TV delayed again
THE WENDY Williams Show has announced that Remy Ma and Fat Joe will take over as guest hosts as the ailing star continues to fight her illness.
The TV star was spotted looking glum last week as she exited a New York City building in a wheelchair.
The Wendy Williams Show has revealed that hip-hop icons Remy Ma and Fat Joe will be stepping in as guest hosts for November 23rd and 24th.
The pair has planned to put their "own spin" on Wendy's signature "hot topics" and other classic segments from the talk show.
Their appearance will follow Devyn Simone, Bevy Smith, Elizabeth Wagmeister, and Michael Yo who will reappear to kick off the Thanksgiving week.
SORROWFUL SIGHTING
Last week, Wendy, 57, was spotted for the first time since giving an update on her health status amid her show absence.
The media personality was seen in a wheelchair as she was pushed by a pal in New York City on Wednesday.
The mother of one wore a colorful patterned pink top and black pants with sneakers and her handbag on her lap, as she exited a building.
Wendy has been absent from her show since the original September 20 return date.
The fall launch was pushed back and then numerous guest hosts have stepped in to take over Wendy’s role.
"I’m making progress but it’s just one of those things that's taking longer than we expected.
"I’m a woman of a certain age, and I know enough to listen to my doctors and will return to my purple chair as soon as we all agree I’m ready."
Wendy continued: "I want to thank all of my staff and our guest hosts for stepping up and stepping in while I can’t be there. I also want to thank Debmar-Mercury and our stations for being so understanding and supportive while I work my way back.
"Most of all, I want to thank my fans. I have heard your prayers and comments and feel all the love! You are everything to me.
"I love spending my mornings with you all and I’m doing everything I can to get back to work, but right now Wendy has to focus on Wendy. I love you for watching..."
GUEST HOSTS GALORE
While the former radio DJ has not been able to host The Wendy Williams Show this season, many famous faces have done their part to fill in during her absence.
Notable names like Leah Remini, Sherri Shepherd, Whitney Cummings, Jerry Springer, Michael Rapaport, and Bill Bellamy tried their hand as guest hosts.
However, Leah and Sherri have stood out, as some have been begging for the latter to take over the hosting role permanently.
