Live from New York City,

(upbeat music)
Now, here's Wendy!
(audience cheers)
Get into it.
Hi!
Hello!
Thanks for watching.
Say hello to my co-hosts, my studio audience.
How you doin'?
How you doin'?
I'm doing okay today.
Let's get started.
It's time for.
Hot Topics!
Yes!
(audience cheers) (upbeat music)
I wasn't crying.
I got swept in the face with a curtain
so I'm not sure whether my eyes are extremely red
or whether there's a loose lash or what,
but that's what happens sometimes
when you're late to your own job.
(audience laughs)
We have a pre-show for you on wendyshow.com.
Tristan's cooking that up right now.
(audience cheers) Of today.
Today.
The Rev Al Sharpton is here.
(audience cheers)
I've known him ever since he was fat.
(audience laughs)
(woman laughs)
We have a particular relationship.
A lot of it does not stem in talking,
but more like laughter and (woman hums) and (woman hums).
(audience hums)
(woman hums) (audience laughs)
But I have a lot to talk to him about including Megyn Kelly
(audience hums)
and her recent comments about race and more.
In the meantime, did you hear about Tracy Chapman
suing Nicki Minaj for stealing her song?
(audience gasps)
This came out of nowhere to me,
but we're on it here at Hot Topics.
I only know Tracy Chapman for that song Fast Cars.
(audience laughs)
I didn't go in deep with her whole movement,
but she's apparently a very, very private person.
(audience hums)
We don't know whether she's married,
whether she has children, we have no idea how old she is,
we know nothing about her.
(audience laughs) Nothing.
Her artistry is her heart and
(woman coughs)
(audience laughs)
that's the way she likes to keep it.
Earlier this year,
Nicki Minaj recorded a song with Nas
using a sample from Tracy Chapman's
big song called Baby Can I Hold You,
which I always thought was called Sorry.
I know two songs now from Tracy Chapman.
(audience laughs)
Sorry.
(woman hums)
(audience singing)
You're late.
(audience laughs)
I said sorry.
(audience sings)
(audience laughs)
♪ Years go back and ♪
(audience sings) (audience laughs)
Alright stop.
(audience laughs)
Stop, stop.
Very nice co-hosts.
(audience laughs)
They're on their game today.
Nicki made multiple requests to use the song
and Tracy said no.
She rejected it every time emphatically.
No, no, and no.
I don't care about you and Nas and being on the hit parade.
I don't care about that.
I'm an artist, this is what I do.
No, no, and no.
Nicki went along and did the song anyway.
(audience groans)
And then delivered it to my friend Funkmaster Flex.
(audience gasps)
Get down, get down.
If you know anything about New York radio
or radio in general, then you know Funkmaster Flex,
he's got the bomb, he throws the bombs,
he will stop and start a song,
he will blow it up and before you know it,
even if you don't like it,
he'll put a stain in your brain
(audience laughs)
and then you'll love it.
Flex got the song and played the song on the radio
and the song went viral and now
Tracy is suing Nicki to ban her from releasing the song.
(audience gasps)
She wants an undisclosed amount of money from Nicki.
Good for you Tracy.
(audience claps)
But ban from radio, it's a little late for that.
Once Flex puts his shimmy shang on it,
(audience laughs)
that's radio.
I think Nicki knew what she was doing
when she recorded this song and when she
insisted that her people give it to Flex
(audience hums)
'cause anybody here in New York,
I know you know Flex out of New York but here in New York,
you give something to Flex, boom.
Something's gonna happen.
(audience laughs)
I know nothing particular about like I said
the amount of money that she's suing for,
but the idea of it being banned from radio,
it's a little late,
and the idea of Nicki putting it out, it's a little late,
it's already out there.
It's on the Funkmaster Flex bomb show.
(audience claps)
By the way, and Nicki was foul for that
and she should pay heavily Tracy.
(audience claps) Heavily.
When our show got started.
(audience laughs)
We'll get it dry cleaned over Christmas break.
(audience laughs)
Even during our six week sneak peak, even during season one,
there were particular people who I
fantasized about having here,
and one of them was Hayden Panettiere.
I don't know whether you recall that.
(audience claps)
She was if you squint and realize our cheesy show,
we had the Hot Topics graphics of
some of my favorite celebrities and stuff
and she was one of them in there.
I don't know her, I don't know why I like her,
but I like her, I wanted to meet her.
I've never met a five foot tall woman
(audience laughs)
with such a big opinion about everything.
So I wanted to meet her.
I've let go of that, but here's the deal.
(audience hums)
The rumor is is that her family and
friends are very worried about her.
(audience gasps)
They said she drinks a lot.
(audience gasps)
Allegedly.
(audience laughs) (woman chuckles)
There's something going on with she and her fiancee.
They're still calling him fiancee.
I don't know whether they're split up
so I'm not going to say that,
but her baby's father Wladimir,
(audience hums)
(audience laughs)
he's six feet seven
(audience gasps)
and every bit of 275 pounds of beef.
(audience laughs)
(audience cheers)
Plus, I think I see a bow in his legs.
(audience laughs)
I don't want to objectify him.
Everybody calm down.
(audience laughs)
We're in the Me Too era,
but and however if you see something.
Say something.
That's all I'm saying. (audience claps)
Alright, alright, alright.
(audience laughs)
They split up in August everybody,
but they have a three year old daughter.
Her name is Kaya.
Kaya is living mainly with Wladimir and he's from Ukraine.
(audience gasps)
So this is not she lives in Staten Island
and he lives in Queens.
All the way over there and now she's dating a new guy.
His name is Brian Hickerson.
There's Brian and he moved to LA
from South Carolina to be with her.
(audience aw's)
He wants to be an actor.
(audience hums)
(audience laughs)
They met through mutual friends
and here she is out on a date with Brian.
Look at her feet. (audience laughs)
That's how she does it.
(audience groans)
Getting good and nice.
On a serious note,
I wanna say that Hayden has denied the rumors.
She's saying that she's happy and healthy,
but what I can tell you is I remember when she had Kaya
that there was word that she was
suffering from postpartum and
maybe she didn't get over that.
I don't know whether that's something
that you get over without seeking help.
(audience hums)
If your baby is only three and a half,
you can still have a bit of the post or the partum.
Plus, she's been with Wladimir for 13 years
(audience gasps)
and she's only 29.
You do the math.
(audience gasps)
Wladimir, do we need to call the cops on you?
(audience laughs)
(audience claps) (woman laughs)
He's 42!
He's 42.
Even though everything looks good on the outside,
I guess having the baby and everybody
doesn't necessarily like you have a baby
and you're young and you're like (woman scoffs).
(audience laughs)
And then your 42 year old fiancee's looking at you like.
(audience laughs)
And you're like yuck.
Maybe the only thing that makes you happy
is going to the set of your hit show Nashville
so you pass the baby off to a nanny,
you go to Nashville, you do that, great show, canceled.
(audience groans)
She's been going through a lot.
Out of work, out of Wladimir.
(audience laughs)
By the way, she's not even arguing with him.
Bring the baby back over here.
In our Hot Topics morning meeting,
it was asked what kind of woman
would not be asking to see their baby?
I said a woman who probably wasn't prepared to be a mother.
(audience claps)
I saw a picture of Wladimir though on the beach
and he wears these little tiny shorts.
Not punk panties, but they're respectable,
(audience laughs)
but he's wearing them and he's holding the baby.
No, she's a little girl so she's sitting on his lap,
and the rocks are crashing.
It's not like the Jersey Shore.
The beaches are different, elegant.
He looked very happy and so did the little girl.
Hayden, I hope you're okay.
(audience claps)
Oh my God, I forgot to moisturize.
(audience laughs)
I know!
I got here late!
I got here late.
Dammit man.
(audience laughs)
(woman groans)
We've got plenty of moisturizer around here.
Thank you though.
(audience laughs)
We're the Gold Bond people.
We got plenty of that.
(audience claps)
Thank you though.
(woman laughs)
On Tiny and TI's Friends and Family Hustle the other night,
I just wanna show you this 'cause
Toya told Tiny that she keeps a close
eye on Reginae, who's 19, my girl.
Just take a look at this and then we'll talk.
You know I had some cameras put in Nae's house.
Girl!
(woman laughs)
But it's for safety.
This is her first time living on her own.
What are you gonna do?
Her, her man, they just plop down on this couch
and things get a little out of hand.
I don't wanna watch none of her man and of that.
What happens if you click on and be like
let me see what this baby doing,
and it's a lot going on?
She knows that I have cameras in there,
but she don't know I put it on my phone.
Oh well she know not to even do nothing in there.
She take him to the bedroom.
No! See?
(audience laughs)
(audience claps)
Here's my thought with regard.
It's not about Reginae.
It's more about cameras in homes.
I know people are really, really camera friendly.
Cameras used to be something that
you'd only think of rich people having at their houses,
but now you can order a camera set up offline.
People have them.
I think that when they get into the house,
they become real intrusive and one day
your cameras are gonna turn on you.
(audience hums)
Don't tell him, he's in class.
He should not be watching.
(audience laughs)
But we bought our son a car and it's
equipped with that tracking device.
Do you know that commercial that you
see on TV where that boy is dancing
thinking he's by himself dancing and his parents pull up?
(audience laughs)
They caught him, they caught him real good.
My husband and I laugh about that all the time,
but there comes a time in everyone's life
where if you're gonna get caught, you're gonna get caught.
Who has time in the day to be tracking and devicing all day?
You put a camera in your living room
and one day you're gonna wanna get smashed on the couch.
(audience laughs)
And find yourself on your own tape.
(audience claps)
Personally, I think it's dangerous.
The boy thinks that the tracking device is on
so he's very attuned to the tracking device is on.
Don't tell him a word.
(audience laughs)
Clap if you think that they're excessive.
(audience claps)
Clap if you love the idea of cameras in the house.
(audience claps)
You know what I forgot about, Snoop.
You are family to us (audience claps)
and I forgot to wish you happy birthday.
(woman laughs)
Snoop celebrated his birthday two days ago.
Ooowee, sticky icky icky.
(audience laughs)
I forgot to wish you happy birthday,
but happy birthday to you Snoop.
Also, happy birthday,
yesterday was my wardrobe stylist's Willy's birthday.
(audience aw's) (audience claps)
I'm busy!
Then Monday, because I know I'll forget,
is Robin who does my wigs birthday.
(audience cheers) Yes, yes.
You know I love my court shows
'cause we can be very judgmental
and I love the court shows. (audience laughs)
Ever since I was a little girl,
even before this talk show was invented.
Ever since I was this tall.
I love the court shows.
The gavel, the costume, the judgment of it all.
(audience laughs)
It was just announced that there's a
new judge coming to daytime TV.
Guess who?
No, not me.
I know. (audience laughs)
I know, I'd be so good at it too.
(audience cheers)
I'm busy here at Wendy.
Jerry Springer.
(audience gasps) (audience claps)
I love this idea.
The show is called Simply Judge Jerry.
He's gonna wear a judge robe,
he's got a degree in law so he knows a little something.
Jerry's in his 70s now.
He doesn't wanna dodge chairs anymore.
(audience laughs)
(audience claps)
He's gonna preside over simple cases
and I would definitely buy it.
It premiers in the fall.
Jerry, you know what, I think this is years overdue.
You'd be real good at that. (audience claps)
You let Steve dodge the chairs while you sit civilized.
In the meantime, do you watch Divorce Court?
(audience claps)
Judge Lynn, you know her.
If you don't know her.
(audience cheers)
Judge Lynn, don't be shy with the lip gloss today girl.
(audience laughs)
She's coming up later for a special edition of Ask Wendy,
but you know she puts it on.
(audience cheers) She puts it on.
I like her a lot as well.
La Toya Jackson has a company and apparently
said company is being sued over unpaid rent.
(audience gasps)
Now she's being forced to pay up.
(audience gasps)
What the landlord is going on?
(audience laughs)
I can tell you.
Allegedly, she hasn't paid rent,
$11,000 per month, for years.
(audience gasps)
The only way I can figure you'd
get away with something like that
is if the landlord's a cheese ball
and rents to other people and says you know what,
La Toya Jackson, that's her company right there.
La Toya Jackson rents here.
You got what you needed landlord and La Toya,
I don't believe La Toya knows
much about what's going on within her situation
because she's a Jackson.
You got lawyers and agents and people to do stuff.
But reportedly the judge is now ordering
La Toya to catch up with her rent, $360,000.
(audience gasps)
Plus damages and attorneys fees.
(audience gasps)
I don't know where she's gonna get this money
'cause La Toya's best earning years are behind her.
(audience groans)
Did you have an earning year?
(audience laughs)
(audience claps)
I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know what La Toya's ever really done.
I know she judges on some of those cooking shows now
and she's on I think Dancing with the Stars
and she's been here and she promoted her perfume.
I didn't hear anything about the perfume afterwards.
(audience laughs)
The thing you can't do is you can't ask Janet for it.
Nope 'cause La Toya is single and on her own
and if there's one thing that grinds
at the teeth of people who have family,
is people who are totally single
who don't have their (bleep) together.
(audience groans)
(audience claps) Really?
I got a kid, I got a husband who's
about to be an ex-husband, I got a life.
Jermaine's got kids, people got things to do,
Mrs. Jackson, she's elderly.
La Toya, all you had to do was look beautiful
and take care of yourself.
That $360,000, we'll be following whether you pay it or not.
Good luck. (audience claps)
In the meantime, we've got more great show
for you here today.
(audience cheers) Up next,
the very outspoken, my friend Reverend Al Sharpton is here,
so grab a snack and come on back.
(audience cheers) (upbeat music)
