One of my co-workers is dating Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest. Oh well. I guess some women like men who like men.Angie writes,
Everybody was gay to Wendy. Every rapper you could think of in that era, I had heard Wendy Williams call them gay. Not one or two. Like every one of them.Angie angrily confronted Wendy about the comments and things went south,
I lost my f–king mind. Before I knew it I was swinging at her. It was a quick scuffle. It took only a few seconds for me to realize that she wasn’t really hitting me back — she was just trying to get me off of her.A co-worker stepped in to break up the fight, which gave Williams a chance to grab a mop to try to defend herself,
She just stood there with it like she wanted to have some sort of sword fight or something. It was actually kind of funny, even in the moment.
Despite their brief altercation, Angie says she’s not bitter at all and even watches Wendy’s talk show,
She has really mastered her lane. I find myself watching and laughing out loud. I don’t have any ill feelings toward her.
In the book, Angie said Wendy would call EVERY rapper gay:
“Everybody was gay to Wendy,” Martinez writes in the book, out Tuesday. “Every rapper you could think of in that era, I had heard Wendy Williams call them gay. Not one or two. Like every one of them.”That’s went ISH hit the fan.
“I lost my f–king mind,” Angie said in the book. “Before I knew it I was swinging at her. It was a quick scuffle. It took only a few seconds for me to realize that she wasn’t really hitting me back — she was just trying to get me off of her.”Luckily, a co-worker stepped in the break up the fight. But get this, after the two were separated, Wendy grabbed a MOP to defend herself. Angie said she “just stood there with it like she wanted to have some sort of sword fight or something. It was actually kind of funny, even in the moment.”
Ha!
Following their scuffle, both ladies were suspended from the station. Angie said she started receiving threats from loyal Wendy listeners that made her feel awful and insecure.
“The truth is that if it wasn’t me it was gonna be somebody else," Angie wrote. “She was disrespectful to so many people all the time.”While the ladies have not spoken since, Angie said there are no hard feelings towards her former nemesis. She said,
“I watch her TV talk show sometimes and she has really mastered her lane. I find myself watching and laughing out loud. I don’t have any ill feelings toward her.”
