I'm cringing. This poor girl keeps cutting Wendy off, switching topics at random, asking the same question more than once with different language, and really just has no chemistry with Wendy. I can't get past 13 minutes because it's SO AWKWARD.
Alexander The Great - that's the cleanest I've ever seen that desk. lol. But c'mon, she can't share the "After Show Wendy" desk with just anybody. We get to see her relaxing and now it's business
The Wendy is the most beautiful woman I know in my entire lifetime and I love her so much and I love you so much my baby and I’m so proud of you I love you so much and I’m so proud of you and I love you so very grateful that I love to be able see that you’re so happy that I am your best friend and I will never ever forget that you’re the sweetest girl in this whole entire universe I hope you’re doing better than ever because I love your beautiful smile and you so very grateful e you know how much it means hurting me when you’re not feeling okay but you’re still doing your job so I’m not really worried anymore about it and it’s kind of hard because you don’t have any more money and I don’t have any other money to help you out but I’m still trying to figure out how to get you some thing that will help you and I’m not worried because you are always strong enough for me to help out but I know you don’t have any money to give me and I have no idea what to do with you and so you only need to do what you’re my money and I’m o know how much money to help you out ❤😂🎉😮😅😊by now I love you so much and I hope that means a lot to me and I hope you have a good day too ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊 ❤
Why is the interviewer so enamored with race! My goodness girl ... And it was evident that she was pulling questions from the sky... no flow , awkward , and a waste of Wendy's time! ->NEXT !!!!
Exactly like your roll models can be only the same race. Or "I've read" about Wendy being popular radio personality. Gurl go listen to wendy Williams experience on RUclips and experience that
I'm just trying to figure out who would hire her to interview Wendy. As someone else said in the comments "she has the charisma of a damp dish rag". 🤭🤭🤭
She is exhibiting unconscious racism - things people say or do without realizing that it is based on their limited expectations or knowledge of the person's race.
Wendy drove this entire interview. Damn, she couldn't even get a day off to be the "guest". LOL. They should've paired her with someone who has the cojones to steer their own interview.
This interviewer is so boring. She sounds like she just woke up or she's bored.... either way it's not a good look. There's no flow to her questioning ...
+411Nichola - I think Mehdii Laghzaoui misunderstood your comment. You're referring to the interviewer as being boring and he's under the impression that you're talking about Wendy. Correct me if I'm wrong...
I said the same thing. the interviewer is asking redundant questions and Wendy is looking at her like, I have too much to do and you're wasting my time. It doesn't even sound like the interviewer even knows a good deal about Wendy to be interviewing in the first place
jody darling Tara? Are you referencing one the names thus interviewer listed? If so, She was talking about Tyra. Tyra banks who had a talk show years back. There's several clips from her show on RUclips
Caroline Kero I personally wanted to thank you- I've scrolled through dozens and dozens of comments & yours is the first I've seen not complaining about the interviewer...lol
Great interview from Wendy but she may as well interviewed herself. The interviewer was terrible, had zero personality, and what's with the "black" questions...seemed a bit forced. Plus this shot was poorly edited, i could see almost every cut in the video.
I disagree. I think she handled herself well and her more calm personality just helped Wendy to shine! Maybe it's just because I am young, but I think the interviewer appealed to millennials and more of what we would be asking Wendy, and how we would comfortably want to talk with her. I liked that she asked the questions about race because they are rarely asked; and Wendy's responses are what young black women like me want to hear. I think this interview just wasn't meant to appeal to everyone.
one day if you are ever successful you will see how tiring it is to have to explain your blackness in relation to your success constantly. grind is grind, people need to stop making it a color thing. everyone has the capacity to be successful. don't you ever get tired of talking about race? its so draining
Jennifer Thank you.. I thought that I'd be the only one annoyed with the "black woman" questions. Which is why I'd decided to scroll down to take a look.
Wendy was great but this young lady seriously needs to study some great interviewers and SERIOUSLY brush up on her skills. She was so mundane, bored sounding, uninterested (or stoned). Not unprofessional but leading, agenda-driven rather than allowing conversation to follow naturally. Difficult to watch her.
Wendy was fantastic although the interviewer was a little awkward I feel it was because she was young and nervous image and hour with Wendy Williams but what Wendy said was fantastic I was just cheering Wendy 's answer she could have interviewed herself. Lol.
I like this side of Wendy. She loves how she has become a successful woman from a normal new jersey girl. Her this side is very Inspiring to the other women, which is really great.
Miriam Wilson she was referring to the saying "Hidden Fences"....and agreed on the talk show with Queen Latifah and Monique...but I didn't expect her to name them all, totally figured she'd highlight mainstream ones
The interviewer sounds like she was doing a job interview, she sounds more dead than alive lol the only reason i kept watching was because Wendy was awesome.
That might be, but she knew a lot about what the millenials are doing, and in my opinion, she roots for black people, I could tell by her questions and knowing the stats about who is black and in behind the scenes position, and her surprise and or seemingly out raged in a way at that I liked. I like that she asked Wendy how she thinks she can help little black girls have role models.
I LOVE that Wendy brings in ALL races when the interviewer talks weirdly about a race she isn't. It was sooooooooo weird to watch. Aunt Wendy is so multifaceted!
@ Stereo Gum - that's true too - maybe it was deliberate so Wendy could re-confirm to people who see this that her show is not about politics though, because it's not, Idk. I did think it was kind of a nice change of pace for a moment though, if I'm honest. & who knew Wendy supported a summer camp for girls?
Neil Fox she doesn't need school, she needs experience. that problem here is she's doing the interview as if it's a practice one instead of engaging Wendy, she's missing the cues. You can't learn that in a classroom.
@ Neil Fox - she just didn't want to talk about the same things that have already been covered. I thought she had good statistics and asked thoughtful, relevant questions. Even if it wasn't all that fun in truth.
Doubt if she even has a degree in #journalism! ... wonders if she has a college degree at all! It's said that 'they' wanna dumb-down the masses...u wanna nOT believe that; but when *the results* in the professional format read as *this* interviewer...??--what is one to think?? Some believe 'they' don't want children to actually have someone poised and clearly intelligent to look up to. I know. ...all conjecture. lol...
This is extremely insightful. One thing about me is that I've always respected Wendy's hustle. Hearing her speak about The Hunter Foundation was truly fantastic. Kudos! xx
Wendy is the ultimate interviewer! Everyone who has interviewed her always comes up way below her. They just don't match up to her energy. Can Wendy please be interviewed by someone with fire...who? I have no idea
Thank you for being a true pioneer and truly beautiful woman inside and out.Wendy’s energy is magnificent and unwavering in the sense of self reflection and directional focus. This was a really triumphant moment of stillness in a moment of life beyond the lights.. truly gives me a glimpse of how her thought process works and how she came to be..
*I love Wendy, My 🤎hurts now for the Wendy that's being plastered all over the web now!!! The persona she portrayed on her show wasnt the human being she was on the regular...Shes sensitive, emotional & loving(Shes a Cancer♋ we're good ppl) I'll continue 2 speak LIFE & RECOVERY OVER HER LIFE....PRAYERS & BLESSINGS IS WHAT SHE NEEDS NOT USERS & ABUSERS TRYING TO HURT HER!!!
I don't like that this young white interviewer keeps bringing race into each subject. Why can't Wendy or any other accomplished (brown) woman just be an accomplished woman .. damn the race label .
This interviewer is teetering on a fine line of disrespect. Watch the wording and tone of your questions. This is a seasoned veteran of the business and you are surely a freshly indoctrinated member.
WENDY you just spoke to my heart. I always thought walking away and not being loyal to things you don't want, made you weak. I started changing who I was to fit this image of what I thought a good girlfriend was. Now I'm miserable and don't have much passion for anything but my career. I'm at the point where I want to just be alone and do me for a while, AND having fun in the process. Buy what I want, save, and work towards the future. Like you said it takes time and God's hand is on it all.
I love Our fabulous, beautiful., honesty in her own right! "WENDY Williams " A God sent to share her gift of knowledge to us all.. I say thank you for your understanding and knowledge...
This interviewer allows us to see the side of Wendy where she’s not “on” and I appreciate that. The questions were very insightful and Wendy’s answers were very informative. This isn’t a “fluff piece” like we normally see with celebrities. This interviewer approaches Wendy as the successful business woman that she is by asking her how she does the things she does and what has been her motivation and driving force. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing!
It's a little awkward that they didn't edit out Wendy 'editing' and rephrasing herself. How difficult would it have been to snip out 5 seconds here and there?
wow i havent seen this side of Wendy, I am at the bit she is talking about her mom and the marriage but it is so impressive I had to comment. It is lovely to see this side of Wendy, she should do more interviews
I'm cracking up!!! 😂😂😂 just before I started to type that the interviewer was so awkward. I said let me check the comments. I don't want to come across mean. Lol I see you guys agree with me. Poor thing!! It was probably points towards her journalism degree, and she just flunked. 😂🙈😂🙈😂
She said do you have metrics on that! Was that shade from a bad interviewer. I would have responded in my best Wendy voice. Do you have metrics on when you are gonna be a better interviewer
You can say what you want about her interviewing style, the interviewer did her research. Her questions and statistics were poignant and insightful. I enjoyed getting a better insight into the mind of Mrs. Williams and hearing her personal insights.
Thank you Fortune. I'm happy she asked the "Black" questions. NO one but black people asks those questions. I'm happy the journalist wasn't afraid to ask. Some might not like it but I'm happy someone that isn't of color asked. THANK YOU. Great interview.
I really liked the interviewer, she's sincere. She asks questions like someone who knows very little about her subject. I enjoyed finding out what made young, Wendy dream so big!
I watched this entire interview, and I read every comment. I think if Wendy Williams goes off the air before I get over my fear of flying, I'm going to regret not seeing her for the rest of my life. I'm glad that she pointed out that it isn't necessary to have a resume anymore or even talent, just 1 million followers from Instagram or RUclips. A lot of young people are unaware of that. I think Wendy explained the one reason why I don't have a lot of admiration or respect for the many people they throw at us from the entertainment industry.
wendy i love your answers so encouraging especially when you said ( everybody should know when to walk away!wether its job or relationship or just normal friendship!thanks not many of us knows how to say no and walk away.
Wendy saved her own interview from the interviewer! I'm shocked this is Fortune... This woman sounds like she just got out of bed.... The gravel in her voice and the disinterest in her face.... Not a people magnet. I rarely comment but my disbelief is too high not to.
Wendy is absolutely brilliant! Well researched, driven and still chasing for more! Having been a fan of hers since her days on the tri-state radio, it has been a joy to witness her evolution! I wonder if Valentina lost a bet because other interns were too nervous to interview such a presence as Wendy. Hopefully, she walked away from this experience and requested training as an interviewer, if in fact, that is her career path.... lord help. Wendy was very gracious-- she didn't pound Valentina for being timid and seemingly unenthused; she proved her professionalism and made the best of this moment. In a way, perhaps she was subtly teaching Valentina how to do this thang right!
Because she’s a novice interviewer who had a set of questions in her head, and was too afraid to deviate and go with the flow and/or where Wendy was taking her.
"they can steal my car far as I'm concerned" simply Phenomenal. Thats what you call Hungry, Grinding. that's the work ethic it takes to Bulid&Run The Empire. well said Wendy
Wendy, you are such an inspiring, strong, beautiful woman. God bless you! Congratulations towards your success. XO
@ Gina - I know, I think she did GREAT in this interview too!! I love her show, she's soooo funny !!!!!!!!!!!
Gina Marisa Well said
God bless you guys! She is a wonderful woman. She is blessed and underrated. Thanks for the respectful and positive feedback.
Robin Light dfashion channel
I'm cringing. This poor girl keeps cutting Wendy off, switching topics at random, asking the same question more than once with different language, and really just has no chemistry with Wendy. I can't get past 13 minutes because it's SO AWKWARD.
It was kind of awkward because I think the two of them had different agendas for the purpose of the interview maybe (?)
Julie Yakimovich Your so right!!!!
Julie Yakimovich
"Do you have an metrics that could illustrate that, I have't seen anything?" Such a rude thing to say in an interview!
Exactly!
Ooop. That was funny.
This woman was DRY
Can't believe she cleaned the desk off. Lol
nooo she told others to clean it..shes the queen of jersey :D
Alexander The Great - that's the cleanest I've ever seen that desk. lol. But c'mon, she can't share the "After Show Wendy" desk with just anybody. We get to see her relaxing and now it's business
Melisa deLuna Exactly. Can you imagine if she hadnt, the interviewer would would have had something to say about that...😂
Alexander The Great i know !!!
This interviewer is terrible.
Pepsi i guess you had nothing better to do than watch and critic a RUclips interview...? Shouldn't you have been watching Charlie Rose or something?
I noticed this from the get go. maybe she was really nervous.
The Wendy is the most beautiful woman I know in my entire lifetime and I love her so much and I love you so much my baby and I’m so proud of you I love you so much and I’m so proud of you and I love you so very grateful that I love to be able see that you’re so happy that I am your best friend and I will never ever forget that you’re the sweetest girl in this whole entire universe I hope you’re doing better than ever because I love your beautiful smile and you so very grateful e you know how much it means hurting me when you’re not feeling okay but you’re still doing your job so I’m not really worried anymore about it and it’s kind of hard because you don’t have any more money and I don’t have any other money to help you out but I’m still trying to figure out how to get you some thing that will help you and I’m not worried because you are always strong enough for me to help out but I know you don’t have any money to give me and I have no idea what to do with you and so you only need to do what you’re my money and I’m o know how much money to help you out ❤😂🎉😮😅😊by now I love you so much and I hope that means a lot to me and I hope you have a good day too ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊 ❤

I'm just trying to figure out who would hire her to interview Wendy. As someone else said in the comments "she has the charisma of a damp dish rag". 🤭🤭🤭
I wish I had her connections in my life 😢
She is exhibiting unconscious racism - things people say or do without realizing that it is based on their limited expectations or knowledge of the person's race.
Wendy would have been better off interviewing herself😭😭😭 lawd
Wendy drove this entire interview. Damn, she couldn't even get a day off to be the "guest". LOL. They should've paired her with someone who has the cojones to steer their own interview.
Did anyone catch at the end when the interviewer tells Wendy "thank you for being here"- while she's the one inside Wendy's office. 😂
Aaron V lol
Aaron V haaaa too funny! Let me watch again.
Here on F
40 minutes sitdown with Wendy and this is what we get?! I'm sorry but that interviewer was awful in terms of conducting questions.
people complain about everything..
This interviewer is so boring. She sounds like she just woke up or she's bored.... either way it's not a good look. There's no flow to her questioning ...
Mehdii Laghzaoui I have no idea what you're trying to say
411Nichola Vocal fry, annoying imo
+411Nichola - I think Mehdii Laghzaoui misunderstood your comment. You're referring to the interviewer as being boring and he's under the impression that you're talking about Wendy. Correct me if I'm wrong...
I said the same thing. the interviewer is asking redundant questions and Wendy is looking at her like, I have too much to do and you're wasting my time. It doesn't even sound like the interviewer even knows a good deal about Wendy to be interviewing in the first place
411Nichola you're so right, I am completely uninterested with her questioning. Then when she misspoke abt "Hidden Fences" really?!?... smdh
Why would the interviewer ask her if she had any metrics illustrating her HSN success because she hasn't seen anything.....that was pure shade...
Lixer lol i was thinking the same thing
jody darling Tara? Are you referencing one the names thus interviewer listed? If so, She was talking about Tyra. Tyra banks who had a talk show years back. There's several clips from her show on RUclips
yeah , that question was so awkward .. the girl conducting the interview was less than great to say the least
That was so stupid! I was like "girl YOU need to do that research" HELLO!!
I agree, I was so taken back when she asked that, I had to replay it to make sure I heard it right. Haha WTF kind of question is that?!
Love Wendy! Thanks for this interview!
Caroline Kero I personally wanted to thank you- I've scrolled through dozens and dozens of comments & yours is the first I've seen not complaining about the interviewer...lol
It was like watching paint dry. Without Wendy's energy it would have been a disaster.
The picture Fortune put on for Wendy is Shady! 🌴🌴🌴 She look crazzzzy, I clicked on it and she's sitting there calm and collective 40 minutes 🤔🌴
Great interview from Wendy but she may as well interviewed herself. The interviewer was terrible, had zero personality, and what's with the "black" questions...seemed a bit forced. Plus this shot was poorly edited, i could see almost every cut in the video.

I think this interview just wasn't meant to appeal to everyone.
I'm thankful for the Black questions.
+mssmartepants ok boi its cute ur her GBF trying to protect her but GTFO she was bad
one day if you are ever successful you will see how tiring it is to have to explain your blackness in relation to your success constantly. grind is grind, people need to stop making it a color thing. everyone has the capacity to be successful. don't you ever get tired of talking about race? its so draining

Not unprofessional but leading, agenda-driven rather than allowing conversation to follow naturally. Difficult to watch her.
She has a slight vocal fry in her voice.
Wendy must have been annoyed.
Reading these comment it's so sickening, This girl seems to be very young while Wendy , have her years of experience, give her a brake!.
Wendy was fantastic although the interviewer was a little awkward I feel it was because she was young and nervous image and hour with Wendy Williams but what Wendy said was fantastic I was just cheering Wendy 's answer she could have interviewed herself. Lol.
I miss this Wendy❤😢
Queen of Daytime Television!
I LOVE THIS!!! I love wendy. Thank you for this
Good thing Wendy is a talker.
I like this side of Wendy. She loves how she has become a successful woman from a normal new jersey girl. Her this side is very Inspiring to the other women, which is really great.
Awful interviewing skills, but well done Wendy for keeping it going..
It's HIDDEN FIGURES Becky!!!! and you forgot about Queen Latifah and her talk show. Geesh! She needs a shot of Double Espresso STAT!!!
Miriam Wilson I was saying that to myself why hasn't she mentioned Queen Latifah
Miriam Wilson she was referring to the saying "Hidden Fences"....and agreed on the talk show with Queen Latifah and Monique...but I didn't expect her to name them all, totally figured she'd highlight mainstream ones
She was referring to Hidden Figures. Fences is a WHOLE SEPARATE film lol
No ma'am she was referring to the backlash from the Bush girl who said "Hidden Fences" instead of Hidden Figures
oh
This is the best Fortune magazine can do? I weep for her generation.
Wendy should have gave this interviewer some tips on how to conduct an interview!!!
The interviewer sounds like she was doing a job interview, she sounds more dead than alive lol the only reason i kept watching was because Wendy was awesome.
Why didn't they edit this? I love Wendy, but this interview didn't feel pro on Fortune Mags side of things.
Yes I’m ok i
Within 10 seconds of the interview, I had to scroll down to the comments to see if anyone else also thought this interviewer is HORRID
BrownEyezxox 😂😂😂😂same !
fuckers complain about everything
I almost commented the SAME thing!
The interviewer is awkward.
She's not genuinely interested. FLAT interview.
That might be, but she knew a lot about what the millenials are doing, and in my opinion, she roots for black people, I could tell by her questions and knowing the stats about who is black and in behind the scenes position, and her surprise and or seemingly out raged in a way at that I liked. I like that she asked Wendy how she thinks she can help little black girls have role models.
Tana D'Amico I'm watching on mute and I can literally see Wendy giving theatrics so... that's a negative
lol too bad ..I look at her a little differently now after watching this interview. in a good way
Ahday B LOL....she scared of Wendy🤣🤣🤣
Feel like I'm watching a very long after show, which I love so much!! :P
김주한 Omg me too
I LOVE that Wendy brings in ALL races when the interviewer talks weirdly about a race she isn't. It was sooooooooo weird to watch. Aunt Wendy is so multifaceted!
People going in on the interviewer however, she let's Wendy talk and make her point and finish her sentences.
I know right? Were they expecting the interviewer to give us a show? This is about Wendy, not the interviewer.
mssmartepants not a Show but it was like she isn't even there 😂
@ msssmartepants - how come I agree with all your observations? Lol.
@ Stereo Gum - that's true too - maybe it was deliberate so Wendy could re-confirm to people who see this that her show is not about politics though, because it's not, Idk. I did think it was kind of a nice change of pace for a moment though, if I'm honest. & who knew Wendy supported a summer camp for girls?
The interview just didn't sound like an engaging conversation. The girl sounds bored and like shes never seen an episode of Wendy.
Fire the interviewer. Back to college for a year or two, girl.
Neil Fox she doesn't need school, she needs experience. that problem here is she's doing the interview as if it's a practice one instead of engaging Wendy, she's missing the cues. You can't learn that in a classroom.
Agreed. She is waaaaay too inexperienced. That's the best *Fortune* could do? Really..?!
@ Neil Fox - she just didn't want to talk about the same things that have already been covered. I thought she had good statistics and asked thoughtful, relevant questions. Even if it wasn't all that fun in truth.
yes!
Doubt if she even has a degree in #journalism! ... wonders if she has a college degree at all!
It's said that 'they' wanna dumb-down the masses...u wanna nOT believe that; but when *the results* in the professional format read as *this* interviewer...??--what is one to think?? Some believe 'they' don't want children to actually have someone poised and clearly intelligent to look up to.

THANK YOU FOR INTERVIEWING our TALK SHOW WONDER WOMAN! Love her to pieces.
"Do you have any metrics I haven't seen that" how utterly rude please leave Wendy's presence
OMG I've never seen her desk clean!
Wendy is the ultimate interviewer! Everyone who has interviewed her always comes up way below her. They just don't match up to her energy. Can Wendy please be interviewed by someone with fire...who? I have no idea
Katlego Maponyane Trever Noah would be fun to watch doing an interview with Wendy
Omg how did she get her job?! At 6:17 did she seriously say Hidden Fences?! Don't you mean Hidden Figures!? omg
Wendy is THE DEFINITION OF SELF MADE YOU CAN TELL IT HAS TRULY BEEN A JOURNEY FOR HER.
wendy you're a beautiful soul💯💖U inspire me...
Thank you for being a true pioneer and truly beautiful woman inside and out.Wendy’s energy is magnificent and unwavering in the sense of self reflection and directional focus. This was a really triumphant moment of stillness in a moment of life beyond the lights.. truly gives me a glimpse of how her thought process works and how she came to be..
The interviewer had no personality. :(.
Fortune Magazine, I'd love to interview for this job!
*I love Wendy, My 🤎hurts now for the Wendy that's being plastered all over the web now!!! The persona she portrayed on her show wasnt the human being she was on the regular...Shes sensitive, emotional & loving(Shes a Cancer♋ we're good ppl) I'll continue 2 speak LIFE & RECOVERY OVER HER LIFE....PRAYERS & BLESSINGS IS WHAT SHE NEEDS NOT USERS & ABUSERS TRYING TO HURT HER!!!
I don't like that this young white interviewer keeps bringing race into each subject.
Why can't Wendy or any other accomplished (brown) woman just be an accomplished woman .. damn the race label .
Wendy Williams has become a TALK SHOW ICON .
I absolutely love this interview. Wow Wendy you inspire me tremendously. Much Love!!!
My parents are climbing into their 80s and they are still out there doing their thing together. It's so so swear that's what I dream of.
Thank you for this!!
This interviewer is teetering on a fine line of disrespect. Watch the wording and tone of your questions. This is a seasoned veteran of the business and you are surely a freshly indoctrinated member.
💯
WENDY you just spoke to my heart. I always thought walking away and not being loyal to things you don't want, made you weak. I started changing who I was to fit this image of what I thought a good girlfriend was. Now I'm miserable and don't have much passion for anything but my career. I'm at the point where I want to just be alone and do me for a while, AND having fun in the process. Buy what I want, save, and work towards the future. Like you said it takes time and God's hand is on it all.
"Thank you for being here" 😒 Well it is her office...
Morgan Barton 😂😂😂
The interviewer was no match for Wendy. Wendy brings the heat and this interviewer was too dry and seemed tired.
I loved this interview and the interviewer displayed smarts Wendy does have a strong presence. I was entertained and made aware. Thank you
The journalist listened during the interview and asked great follow-up questions. I think she did well.
I love Our fabulous, beautiful., honesty in her own right! "WENDY Williams " A God sent to share her gift of knowledge to us all.. I say thank you for your understanding and knowledge...
This interviewer allows us to see the side of Wendy where she’s not “on” and I appreciate that. The questions were very insightful and Wendy’s answers were very informative. This isn’t a “fluff piece” like we normally see with celebrities. This interviewer approaches Wendy as the successful business woman that she is by asking her how she does the things she does and what has been her motivation and driving force. Very interesting. Thanks for sharing!
It's a little awkward that they didn't edit out Wendy 'editing' and rephrasing herself. How difficult would it have been to snip out 5 seconds here and there?
I love Wendy Williams, ❤😍
I love how Aunt Wendy told the interviewer to wait and let her continue her point.
The Interviewer knew Wendy had this, she allowed WENDY TO SHOW HER WORTH, Shes a GREAT TALK SHOW HOST!! Great Interview Girlz
I ❤ Auntie Wendy. I grew up listening to her on Kiss Fm and WBLS. I have been a loyal supporter for decades 'how u doin'
The best thing I got out of this interview was that she's renewed through 2020
I would love to see a Wendy Netflix show if or when the sun sets on the Wendy Williams Show🙆💕
wow i havent seen this side of Wendy, I am at the bit she is talking about her mom and the marriage but it is so impressive I had to comment. It is lovely to see this side of Wendy, she should do more interviews
I had never seen this! I love Wendy. She takes us away to a good place for one hour each day. 2017 was this before the back stabbing?
THIS IS A FORTUNE INTERVIEW???? I thought it was a high school girl. Wow!
I'm cracking up!!! 😂😂😂 just before I started to type that the interviewer was so awkward. I said let me check the comments. I don't want to come across mean. Lol I see you guys agree with me. Poor thing!! It was probably points towards her journalism degree, and she just flunked. 😂🙈😂🙈😂
She said do you have metrics on that! Was that shade from a bad interviewer. I would have responded in my best Wendy voice. Do you have metrics on when you are gonna be a better interviewer
It's a very long, Ask Wendy!
Pureita Griffiths :)I like ask wendy
Wendy keeps editing herself but Fortune keeps everything in word for word... LOL
You can say what you want about her interviewing style, the interviewer did her research. Her questions and statistics were poignant and insightful. I enjoyed getting a better insight into the mind of Mrs. Williams and hearing her personal insights.
Thank you Fortune. I'm happy she asked the "Black" questions. NO one but black people asks those questions. I'm happy the journalist wasn't afraid to ask. Some might not like it but I'm happy someone that isn't of color asked. THANK YOU. Great interview.
Mrs. Hunter, you are such an inspiration! I love you even more!
A glance? 45 mins of YESSSSSSSSSS ❤️
Wendy comes across very well here. She answers all the questions nicely and in detail despite the way they were asked.
I really liked the interviewer, she's sincere. She asks questions like someone who knows very little about her subject. I enjoyed finding out what made young, Wendy dream so big!
I like Wendy. Your answers always seem honest!
I love that Wendy gives back to camps. I loved camp when I was a kid.
It's hard to interview someone like Wendy because she is so interesting. And she knows how to keep it going without questions.
I watched this entire interview, and I read every comment. I think if Wendy Williams goes off the air before I get over my fear of flying, I'm going to regret not seeing her for the rest of my life. I'm glad that she pointed out that it isn't necessary to have a resume anymore or even talent, just 1 million followers from Instagram or RUclips. A lot of young people are unaware of that. I think Wendy explained the one reason why I don't have a lot of admiration or respect for the many people they throw at us from the entertainment industry.
GREAT interview! 👌
wendy i love your answers so encouraging especially when you said ( everybody should know when to walk away!wether its job or relationship or just normal friendship!thanks not many of us knows how to say no and walk away.
Wendy saved her own interview from the interviewer! I'm shocked this is Fortune... This woman sounds like she just got out of bed.... The gravel in her voice and the disinterest in her face.... Not a people magnet. I rarely comment but my disbelief is too high not to.
The interviewer just said HIDDEN FENCES 😯...this is my stop✌.
This interviewer was throwing so much shade, I love Wendy she has her finger on the pulse of what's real and new.
I love the interview, her questions were goooood!!How u Doin!!
Wendy is absolutely brilliant! Well researched, driven and still chasing for more! Having been a fan of hers since her days on the tri-state radio, it has been a joy to witness her evolution! I wonder if Valentina lost a bet because other interns were too nervous to interview such a presence as Wendy. Hopefully, she walked away from this experience and requested training as an interviewer, if in fact, that is her career path.... lord help. Wendy was very gracious-- she didn't pound Valentina for being timid and seemingly unenthused; she proved her professionalism and made the best of this moment. In a way, perhaps she was subtly teaching Valentina how to do this thang right!
Why is she making this such a "black" thing.
Black Panther Movement and Feminism power
Because they are valid issues
Because Wendy is a black woman living in a white man's world
When you have the shot, ya take the shot.
Because she’s a novice interviewer who had a set of questions in her head, and was too afraid to deviate and go with the flow and/or where Wendy was taking her.
She's a horrible interviewer😩 I'm not trying to be rude, just stating facts
Love me some Wendy!!!! You go girl!! Big love from Toronto!!
Oh we watching! I don't think I even like Wendy at first...then when I started watching the show I like her even more. She's real...
weird that the interviewer keeps framing her questions around Wendy's blackness...
Wendy is my hero! she's so candid and honest and talented and smart and funny and beautiful! and we both went to northeastern in Boston
That wig is everything!!!😍😍
and that cadence of the interviewer just kill me!!!
It's the one Wendy always mocks when she's imitating millennials....
Wendy has exact same face as Grinch who stole Christmas Lmao
