WENDY WILLIAMS SPECULATING ON BRUCE JENNER

Wendy Williams




Despite coming under fire last month for speculating about Bruce Jenner’s gender identity, Wendy Williams told HuffPost Live on Monday that she is “happy for him.”




The daytime talk show personality discussed the recent controversy surrounding her comments about the reality star and former Olympian’s recent change in appearance. Williams said her previous comments were not intended to be hurtful.



Williams: "I don't know what Bruce is going through, but I'm happy for him because there's got to be nothing worse in a person's life then to not be able to live in your own truth. Whether you're gay, whether you're transgender -- whatever. Whatever it is."




Williams also discussed her relationship with the LGBT community, the sincerity of which has been questioned due to this controversy and others before it.



Williams: "People hear what they want to hear, not what was actually said...Listen, I'm a friend to a lot of communities. You know, I call things as I see them and that's that."





Wendy Williams also weighed in on Britney Spears' new boyfriend, saying 'I smell an opportunist.'
