Wendy Williams: The 4th Hour of Today is Beneath Hoda
Looks like Wendy Williams is trying to cause a little commotion at NBC's Today Show.
And she's doing it by throwing some major shade at Kathie Lee Gifford.
Williams is calling out Kathie Lee Gifford and urging her Today co-host Hoda Kotb to ditch hosting the fourth hour of the NBC morning show with the star.
Inquisitr writes that Willaims didn’t mince her words when speaking out about the twosome on The Wendy Williams Show this week, as she claimed that Kathie Lee was now “beneath” Hoda after she was promoted to an anchor position following Matt Lauer’s firing last year.
Speaking about the twosome amid speculation Hoda could give up her role co-hosting the morning show with Kathie Lee in favor of her new role, Wendy encouraged the host to give up on her gig with Gifford because she’s now moved on to bigger things by replacing Matt.
“How much longer do you think Hoda’s going to stick around and drink wine on that fourth hour?” Williams asked her audience during the Hot Topics section of her daytime talk show, per Entertainment Daily.
Wendy then threw a whole lot of shade in Kathie Lee’s direction during the January 29 episode of her show, admitting that she thinks Gifford and the fourth hour are both “beneath” the mom of one now, despite the twosome co-hosting the segment together for 10 years since 2008.
