The hashtag #CancelWendyWilliamsShow exploded on Twitter after the infamous talk show host was, in the opinion of many, body-shaming singer Ariana Grande on a recent show.
Tens of thousands of Grande fans and Wendy Williams haters took to Twitter to demand her talk show get canceled after Williams said that Grande looked like a 12-year-old girl on her nationally syndicated talk show, “The Wendy Williams Show.”
“She’ll forever look 12. I don’t mean that in a good way,” Williams said on Thursday’s show. The TV host talked about Grande’s height, mentioning she’s 4 feet 11 inches tall, and then added: “I don’t look at her as a woman.”
Actually, Grande is 22, but the point remains the same: folks are enraged.
