Wendy Williams on The Masked Singer

Wendy dressed as 'Lips' in her tribute performance for the Big Apple. She performed in the night episode of the October 30 show and sang Odyssey’s Native New Yorker. However, her debut performance also happened to be her only performance on the show, but she stated that she thoroughly enjoyed it.

She told People that she felt relieved for at least be doing one performance as this not what she does, singing and dancing aren’t her forte and how she is someone who talks. The Wendy Williams talk show host added that she chose the lips because 'her job is talking' and also said that everyone on the show was really kind to her.

Wendy revealed that she has been watching the show since its beginning and that she is already acquainted with Nick Cannon, Jenny McCarthy, Robin Thicke and Nicole Scherzinger. She said she did not know only Ken Jeong before the show. She further added that her talk show wasn’t on due to COVID-19, which is why the timing worked out for her perfectly to fly in and out of LA for a week.

Wendy was then asked about how she handles the critical comments and messages from people even after having a positive message and does it hurt. To this, she replied that it is tough for a while like 12 hours, but she knows how to bounce back. She added that she tends to see the sun through the clouds.
