Wendy Williams is providing a rare public statement. Amid a court-ordered guardianship due to a primary progressive aphasia and frontotemporal dementia diagnosis, the former Wendy Williams Show host spoke out about the allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs, who was charged on several federal counts.

It is about time. To see this video on TV of [Cassie] getting pummeled… it was just horrific. But now you have to think, how many more times? How many people? How many more women? It’s just so horrible.” In 1998, Diddy allegedly got Wendy fired from her Hot 97 gig, according to Charlamagne Tha God, who mentioned the rumor during an appearance on the Flagrant podcast. “Wendy’s whole thing was, Diddy was gay. That’s why Wendy got fired from Hot 97. Wendy got fired from Hot 97 by Diddy ’cause that’s when Bad Boy was smoking hot. She got fired for putting that out there,” he said. Back in 2022, Diddy’s former bodyguard Gene Deal alluded to that firing in an interview with Art of Dialogue. “You started the conversation earlier about what did I mean about the power Puff had. With the radio stations in New York? Mother—-ers didn’t breathe hard if Puff didn’t want them to. … Puff got one of the hottest DJs off of Hot 97 because she wanted to put up a picture of him getting his pants pulled down,” he said. “Puff told Hot 97 if they didn’t get rid of her before he got back in New York, that they was not going to get any music from any of his friends, any of the record label executives that was cool with him, everyone was going to boycott their station. We was out in L.A. for about three days; before we landed back in New York, Wendy Williams was in the radio station in Philly. It was over for her. She was fired.” Diddy is now facing lawsuits from 120 new abuse victims. Find out what his lawyer said in response.
