Look, the wildest news story of the year was only three days ago and yet I am STILL reeling from the drama of it all!
In case you missed it, Wendy Williams went totally viral a few days ago for allegedly farting on her show.
The video is literally BONKERS.
However now, Wendy is claiming she didn’t fart AT ALL!
She started Thursday’s show off in a serious tone : “I’ve been going through this now for a moment. I would like to have a private] conversation with you, okay?”
“Fartgate” she exclaims as the words “FARTGATE” appeared on the screen behind her.

“Let me tell you something right now, okay? I don’t lean over like this to release a fart, I lean over like this because it’s comfortable. If I sit [straight up] all the time, it’s heavy on my spine. I like to release my hips and lean. I’ve been doing this for 11 years on this show,” she explained.
“I have never farted once on this show,” she continued. “As a matter of fact, I barely fart, you know why? Gas gets released several different ways and mine is belching because all I do is talk.”

“By the sound of that fart, I would have had to go change my costume, I would have left a mark in the seat,” she joked.
“I wouldn’t even save the costume, I’d throw it away. It’d be soiled beyond soiled-tivity.”

The Wendy Williams Show Gaffer John Anderson came out to explain the reason for the noise: “We were filling up a fish tank backstage and we didn’t have the proper hose, it was sputtering like someone was farting. It wasn’t Wendy!” he claimed.
Do you think Wendy is telling the truth?! Let us know in the comments below!
