  • Wendy Williams is finally let out of her ‘prison’ as she meets up with fired CNN star Don Lemon

    Wendy Williams is finally let out of her ‘prison’ as she meets up with fired CNN star Don Lemon

    Wendy Williams was finally seen stepping out of her assisted living facility – which she has labeled as a ‘prison’ – to have dinner with Don Lemon in NYC on Thursday.

    The TV personality, 60 – who hired new attorney Joe Tacopina in an attempt to end her conservatorship under Sabrina Morrissey – was also joined by niece Alex Finnie and the former CNN host’s husband Tim Malone. 

    The group was seen grabbing a bite to eat at Il Cantinori located in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of the city. 

    It comes just one day after the star’s guardian reportedly denied Williams from having dinner with her niece and new lawyer this week on Wednesday. 

    However, just one day later, Wendy flashed a big smile as she left the facility and was seen arriving to the popular eatery with her niece Alex by her side. 

    Williams donned a pair of blue denim shorts as well as a fuzzy black jacket for the evening out. She completed the look by slipping into a pair of tights and fuzzy black boots.

    Her long locks were parted in the middle and flowed down past her shoulders in light waves. 

    The media personality easily carried a black, crocodile-embossed purse in her hand to hold a few items she needed during the dinner. 

    Wendy’s niece was seen helping her aunt get onto a red mobility scooter as they paused on a sidewalk in front of the restaurant. 

    Lemon briefly mingled with the star outside while sporting a burgundy-colored shirt as well as denim jeans and tan suede shoes. 

    While approaching the hotspot earlier in the night, Don – who was fired from CNN in 2023 – layered the outfit with a gray puffer jacket while his husband Tim Malone strolled closely by his side.   

    Wendy seems to have a close friendship with Lemon, and notably appeared on his podcast The Don Lemon Show earlier this year. 

    At the time, she expressed: ‘My life is ridiculous. I’ve been with this guardian person for three years. For three years of my life… I’m isolated. I feel like I’m in prison. I can’t go out. All I can do is look at the window.’ 

    Lemon then questioned the star if she was ‘incapacitated’ and in response, Williams simply said, ‘Hell f***ing no.’

    Wendy was placed under the guardianship of Sabrina Morrissey in 2022 – and last year in November she claimed that Williams was ‘permanently incapacitated’ by her dementia battle.   

    Back in 2023, the TV personality was diagnosed with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia.

    When Lemon brought up her guardian’s allegations, Wendy said, ‘I don’t know how much I can talk without being punished.’ 

    She later added, ‘I’m not in a good position. My life is screwed up. You know, this guardian mess is – please, look, I am isolated. I feel like I’m in prison. I feel like, you know, they’re trying to control me and everything that I do.’ 

    Earlier this week, Morrissey reportedly refused to allow Wendy to leave the assisted living facility called Coterie to have dinner with her niece and new attorney Joe Tacopina. 

    The star hired Tacopina – who recently represented A$AP Rocky – to help secure her freedom from her three-year conservatorship. 

    A #FreeWendy movement has since begun and last week, Williams was seen banging on her window from inside the facility as supporters rallied for her below on the street. 

    However, Morrissey told People this month that Wendy is refusing to undergo certain medical tests – a MRI brain scan and neuropsychological assessment – as she aims to get out of the guardianship.

    Sabrina stated, ‘Medical testing, including an MRI brain scan and neuropsychological assessment, had been scheduled for Ms. Williams.’ The appointment was set for March 21 – but the star did not go. 

    ‘The Court directed that the testing be completed in March. Ms. Williams has declined to participate in the testing to date and therefore, the testing was not completed.’ 

    She added, ‘The parties are not able to address the concerns that have been expressed to the media without the testing. Once Ms. Williams undergoes the testing and a full evaluation, the results will inform the next steps for Ms. Williams’ care.’ 

    However in response, Wendy also told the outlet: ‘I don’t know anything about that.’ She then added ‘bulls***’ and said, ‘I am open to what I am open to and I can’t talk about it right now.’ 

    Late last month in March, it was revealed that Wendy was obtaining a new legal team in a bold move to break free from the guardianship. 

    Ginalisa Monterroso, the CEO and founder of Connect Care Advisory Group, recently told Page Six, ‘They say she’s incapacitated.

    ‘That usually means someone who is a vegetable or unaware of their surroundings and unable to communicate. That’s not Wendy. Even just look at her operate her scooter. Can an incapacitated person do that?’ 

    She added, ‘I would not be advocating publicly on behalf of Wendy if I felt she had any cognitive issues or that she belonged in a memory unit.’ 

    Monterroso emphasized the importance of Williams obtaining a new legal team in order to get out of the conservatorship. 

    However, Morrissey told People this month that Wendy is refusing to undergo certain medical tests - a MRI brain scan and neuropsychological assessment - as she aims to get out of the guardianship

    ‘She’s just stuck in what she calls a luxury prison…There’s been no plan put in place for her, no paperwork, no hearings. There was no strategy or help lined up for her at all.’ 

    Ginalisa explained that she talks to the star almost daily and has also sent a letter to  Adult Protective Services in New York. 

    She also told the outlet, ‘A doctor in Florida first examined her in 2019 and his diagnosis was alcohol-related dementia. 

    ‘She’s also had serious thyroid issues since her 30s and there’s such a thing as thyroid-related dementia. She also has Graves disease which is why her eyes sometimes bulge.’

    Monterroso continued, ‘Whatever it is, a guardianship is supposed to be for someone who doesn’t know to put on a coat in winter or doesn’t remember to pay bills or wanders out and doesn’t know where they are.

    ‘That’s not Wendy. So then why put an alcoholic in a memory care unit and throw away the key?’ 

    In mid-March, her assisted living facility called the NYPD when Wendy left to grab dinner with her niece. Days later, she defiantly stepped out for dinner once again in NYC. 

    In a pre-recorded interview which aired on The View last month, Wendy said: ‘I don’t want a guardian. I don’t want… put it this way, I don’t want Sabrina, period. You know what I’m saying?

    ‘I don’t want a guardian. I want to get out of guardian. It’s been over three years. You know what I’m saying? It’s time for my money and my life to get back to status quo.’

    Williams added, ‘I can’t do it with these two people again. I can’t. And I’m speaking of the guardian and the judge. I need a new guardian.’

    'She's just stuck in what she calls a luxury prison...There's been no plan put in place for her, no paperwork, no hearings. There was no strategy or help lined up for her at all,' Monterroso said; Williams seen in 2018 in NYC

    Attorneys for Morrissey had sent a letter to DailyMail.com and stated that the drama surrounding the guardianship is ‘untrue, inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading.’

    It was added that the ‘consistent with general practice in New York, guardianship proceedings are kept confidential to this case.

    ‘Recently, however, the court determined that misinformation circulating in the media is harmful to Ms. Williams interests and the Guardianship.’ 

    Her attorneys further said in the letter that ‘contrary to many media reports, Morrissey, as guardian, did not declare Wendy Williams to be legally incapacitated’ – since a guardian does not have the power to do so. 

    Wendy also called into Good Day New York to explain that she passed a psychiatric evaluation with ‘flying colors.’

    She later gave details about the living facility she is staying at and said, ‘And you know, I’m on the fifth floor. It’s called the memory unit. This is a floor, you know, you don’t remember anything. Like really?

    ‘And as far as me being able to go outside, I’m not allowed. You know, I have to stay in this building,’ she continued, and added she needs to be ‘permitted’ in order to go to the gym that is located on the third floor.’ 

    Wendy then emotionally stated that her money is ‘up in the air’ before saying, ‘This is my life.’

    Towards the end of the interview, she shared that leaving her guardianship is ‘the number one most important thing.’

  • Don Lemon pokes fun at Bianca Censori’s shocking naked dress reveal at Grammys amid Kanye West feud

    Don Lemon pokes fun at Bianca Censori’s shocking naked dress reveal at Grammys amid Kanye West feud

    Don Lemon took a swipe at Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori when he mocked her jaw-dropping Grammy Awards nude dress reveal when he walked at a fashion show on Tuesday.

    The 58-year-old news host was one of the models at the Blue Jacket Fashion Show, which was held in New York City.

    Lemon — who was joined by other men known for a variety of careers, including Bill Nye the Science Guy and Nurse Jackie star Dominic Fumusa — made clear he was targeting West, 47, and his Censori, 30, when he hit the runway wearing a long midnight-blue overcoat that he left open.

    The look was reminiscent of the enormous black fur coat that Censori initially wore when she arrived at the Grammys red carpet, before dropping it to the ground to reveal her scandalizing ultra-sheer dress, which did nothing to obscure the fact that she was completely nude underneath it.

    As Lemon reached the end of the runway, he turned and slipped the overcoat down his arms, as if to drop it on the ground just like the infamous couple did. 

    The hilarious display comes after the news man shot back at West after the rapper claimed he had started a rumor that he and Censori had been kicked out of the Grammys.

    The show featured designs from Michael Kors, Thom Browne, Tommy Hilfiger and many others as they reimagined traditional ‘blue jackets’ that models wore on the runway.

    The Blue Jacket Fashion Show, which is sponsored by Johnson & Johnson, aims to elevate prostate cancer awareness. 

    The event supported the nonprofit advocacy group ZERO Prostate Cancer, which aims to raise awareness and funding for those affected by prostate cancer, as well as to decrease mortality rates and to improve early detective rates. 

    Lemon looked too cool for school at the fashion show in a casual-cool ensemble.

    Underneath his tasteful double-breasted dark-blue overcoat, which featured peaked lapels, he wore a pale pink polo shirt.

    He paired the low-key top with light-beige khaki trousers that created a pleasing silhouette.

    The former CNN anchor completed his look with a pair of square-toed black leather loafers, and he wore a pair of dark tortoiseshell sunglasses.

    Earlier, Lemon arrived on the fashion show’s red carpet in a summery baby-blue double-breasted suit.

    Even though he appeared to have mocked West and Censori’s Grammy Awards stunt, his outfits couldn’t have been more dissimilar to the nude dress or West’s all-black T-shirt and trousers combo.

    Lemon, who attended the Grammys in Los Angeles, updated his social media fans about West and Censori’s red carpet shenanigans while seated in the audience at the Crypto.com Arena.

    Prior to the red carpet display, Lemon tried to interview West but got little out of the tight-lipped rapper, who would only tell him that his upcoming album is titled Bully and will be released later this year.

    Onlookers who observed Censori’s nude-dress stunt wondered if she and West had even been invited to the ceremony, as they appeared to leave immediately after walking the red carpet.

    Lemon initially reported that onlookers told him the controversial couple had been forcibly removed by police, though that narrative was later challenged. 

    ‘Here’s what I’m hearing. I’m hearing that Kanye wanted to do the red carpet, but he wasn’t invited,’ Lemon said.

    ‘That’s what I’m hearing from folks here at the Grammys. And then he left. Maybe he was escorted out,’ continued. ‘That’s what folks are saying. I’m not sure. Maybe he just wanted to do the carpet, but he definitely has gone.’

    His comments only stirred up more confusion on social media, as fans because to speculate that West and Censori had been removed from the event. 

    However, TMZ later reported that the couple had been invited to the Grammys, where the hitmaker was nominated for Best Rap Song.

    But instead of waiting to see if he won, West and his wife drove away from the awards show immediately after making a splash on the red carpet with her revealing display.

    West wasn’t willing to let Lemon’s statements slide, and he took to social media to post an old photo of the anchor, along with a racial slur targeting Black people.

    ‘This the goofball that started the rumor that me and my wife got kicked out the Grammies.3 decades of innovating music and they [sic] always K***s like this.’

    Lemon seemed to be more amused that offended by the rappers bigoted attack in a blistering response video he posted to Instagram.  

    ‘Kanye, Ye, Yay, whatever your name is. I did not start a rumor about you being kicked out of the Grammys,’ he began. ‘I actually corrected it. I saw someone on your team who asked me to correct it because it had been reported everywhere. So first of all, get your s*** straight.’

    He then called out West for using the racial slur to refer to him, and he branded the Flashing Lights rapper a hypocrite over his strong support for President Donald Trump.

    ‘And you, of all people, calling me a c***! Negro! That ‘Make America Great Again’ hat must be too tight on your head,’ Lemon continued. 

    A source later told The Sun that West had referred to Censori’s outfit — or lack thereof — as ‘art.’ 

    ‘People have called this a stunt but to Ye this is his art,’ the source said.

    ‘He turned up, made headlines around the world and left. No one told him what to do and even if they had, he wouldn’t have listened.

    ‘Ye always planned to do the red carpet and leave — he’d never sit through the Grammys because it’s so dull and boring,’ they claimed. 

    Source based in Tokyo also alleged that a $20 million deal for West to perform in Tokyo had been yanked due to the stunt.

    The rapper was scheduled for two shows in May at the Tokyo Dome, but investors had second thoughts after the shocking display. 

    Since Censori’s nude-dress reveal, fans have renewed concerns on social media that West may be controlling her behavior, but so far she hasn’t made any public statements on the subject.

    Lizzo announces surprising move after Trump’s election win as she aims to leave all ‘toxicity’ behind

    Lizzo is among a number of Hollywood stars, like Jamie Lee Curtis and Don Lemon, leaving X (formerly Twitter) following President-elect Donald Trump’s election win.

    On Thursday, the Truth Hurts singer, 36, announced that she was fleeing the social media platform that has become increasingly toxic platform since Elon Musk’s $44 billion takeover of the company.

    The four-time Grammy winner revealed on Instagram that she created an account on Bluesky, another site similar to Twitter/X, which allows users to share posts and photos with their followers. 

    ‘I hate the internet. Anyways I joined bluesky cus we’re leaving toxicity in 2024,’ she captioned a bathroom mirror selfie that showed her rocking a fluffy white robe. 

    Later in the day, the rapper (born Melissa Viviane Jefferson) took to her Instagram Story to call the move as ‘the great migration.’

    Since joining Bluesky, she has received 2,400 followers. On Twitter, which she joined back in 2011, Lizzo has more than 2.1 million followers.

    The star has been very active during her first 12 hours on Bluesky, where she has already shared 38 posts.

    In one post, she asked: ‘Wait… are we having fun on the internet again?’ 

    Just seven minutes later, however, she admitted that she was ‘clearly’ had ‘some wounds to heal because’ she was ‘scared to check the replies on’ that last post. 

    ‘Awww don’t let it get to you mama. There are plenty of us who love and support you!’ one fan replied. 

    Others called Bluesky a ‘safe space’ compared to Twitter. 

    ‘Wishing every refugee on this app healing❤️‍,’ another Bluesky user replied. 

    On November 7, two days after Trump secured his second term in the White House,  Lizzo shared a message of love to her fans on her Instagram.

    In her post, she can be seen writing ‘Sending LOVE to everyone in the WORLD’ on a sheet of white printer paper.

    Lizzo had rallied behind Vice President Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, throughout the 2024 presidential race. 

    After Harris received criticism for not doing enough during her vice presidency, Lizzo blasted the politican’s opposers in a passionate Instagram video.

    ‘For everyone saying that Kamala Harris didn’t do anything when she was VP, please, for $5,000, do not use Google, tell me what any vice president has ever done during their term that was notable that you noticed,’ she asked. 

    Lizzo continued: ‘Can we all just be for real? Let’s all be for real and say our quiet parts out loud, because the discourse is tired.’ 

    Last month, Lizzo even spoke at a rally for Harris in her hometown of Detroit. 

    The pop star, however, was torn apart online for stating that ‘the whole country will be like Detroit’ if Harris wins the election.

    Lizzo raved that being like Detroit meant being ‘proud like Detroit’ and ‘resilient like like Detroit.’ 

    The Good as Hell hitmaker’s remarks rubbed a lot of Americans the wrong way as Detroit’s unemployment rate is twice the national average and is ranked second least safe city in the U.S.

    Her statement went vital on X and immediately drew backlash. 

    ‘That was a Trump endorsement if I’ve ever had one. Lol,’ one X user tweeted. 

    Another wrote: ‘Regardless of Lizzo’s strenuous efforts to spin it, all that will be ringing in people’s subconscious is: ‘Kamala will turn America into impoverished, run down, and unsafe, Detroit.’

    ‘If Kamala is elected the whole country will look like Detroit. A decimated car industry. A top ten city in crime statistics,’ a third posted.

    Even many social media users claiming to live in Detroit said they do ‘NOT want the whole country to be like Detroit.’ 

    Despite facing trolling, Lizzo continued to urge Americans to vote and reminded that numerous times. 

    ‘If your vote didn’t matter, then voter suppression would not exist. If your vote didn’t matter, they wouldn’t discourage young people from going to the polls,’ she pointed out. ‘If your vote didn’t matter, our parents and our grandparents would not have marched — and fought — for our right to vote.’

    Insiders spill details on Don Lemon’s ‘bridezilla’ behavior and Tim Malone’s vow writing plans with ChatGPT before their wedding

    Don Lemon is said to be acting like a total ‘bridezilla’ ahead of his wedding to his long-term partner Tim Malone this Saturday, with insiders claiming he’s micromanaging his guests in a desperate attempt to have a ‘perfect’ big day.

    Tensions are thought to be bubbling behind-the-scenes as the ex-CNN host, 58, prepares to marry Tim, 39, at Ralph Lauren’s Polo Bar on April 6, half a decade after they got engaged.

    Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, an insider close to the couple revealed that Tim is so unsure of what he will say in his vows that he’s been joking about resorting to AI technology for help. 

    ‘They are a box of nerves right now and Don is kind of being a bridezilla because he has wanted this picture-perfect fairytale marriage, and he is micromanaging everyone,’ an insider told DailyMail.com.

    Sharing details about their big day, which is set to be an intimate ceremony with their nearest and dearest, the insider continued: ‘They are both going to wear matching suits with different lapels.

    ‘It won’t be a very religious ceremony, but they have written vows they will read to each other.

    ‘Tim was joking with coworkers that he would use ChatGPT to write his.

    ‘Several of Tim’s co-workers from Douglas Elliman are going to be there.

    ‘Their dogs are also expected to be a part of the ceremony just as they were a part of their engagement.’

    DailyMail.com has contacted the pair for comment.  

    Don and Tim’s intimate ceremony comes eight years after the pair first started dating after meeting at Almond Restaurant in Bridgehampton, New York – and five years after they got engaged.

    The duo have been engaged since 2019 but were forced to postpone their nuptials amid the coronavirus pandemic

    Don and Tim, who works in real estate, then went public with their relationship when they rang in 2018 with an on-air kiss during CNN’s live New Year’s Eve broadcast.

    The following year the duo got engaged when Tim proposed to Don on his own birthday with the help of their beloved dogs Barkley and Boomer.

    The two pooches were wearing dog tags that were engraved with the question: ‘Daddy will you marry papa?’

    Following their engagement, Don, who came out as gay in his 2011 memoir Transparent, told CNN viewers: ‘I grew up thinking that I would never be able to be public with my relationships, let alone ever get legally married.

    ‘So for me this is doubly thrilling and just a wee bit terrifying. Guess I have to start thinking about children. Talk about a late bloomer.’

    It was previously reported that Don’s axing from CNN in April 2023 caused ‘arguments’ between the lovebirds.

    The veteran anchor was sensationally sacked amid a furious controversy over his ‘sexist’ and ‘misogynistic’ behavior.

    DailyMail.com spoke exclusively to a friend of Tim who said at the time that the scandal had ‘definitely been a bump in the road’ for the couple – particularly as Don had been warned by his fiancé to ‘cool down’ his on-air rants.

    ‘He told Don many times to just cool it down and go with the flow, but Don is not the type of person to listen,’ the source revealed. ‘He pushes the boundaries in every facet of his life and this show was no different.’

    In February 2023, Don pushed the boundaries too far when he said that Presidential candidate Nikki Haley was ‘past her prime’ at the age of 51.

    He then claimed that ‘a woman is considered to be in their prime in their 20s and 30s and maybe 40s’ before telling his stunned female cohosts to ‘Google it.’

    The sexist remark, which led to co-host Poppy Harlow, 41, storming off set, had Don taken off-air for three days and caused a tidal wave of backlash – especially from female staffers who demanded he be fired.

    However, while Don’s axing has reportedly caused friction between him and his partner, the insider added that Tim was sticking by the former CNN anchor and ‘knows that he is not misogynistic.’

    ‘[Tim] says that [Don] is just gay with a very dry, harsh and sarcastic sense of humor,’ they said at the time.

    In fact, once the pair overcame the shock of Don’s sacking, they began to get ‘excited’ about the prospect of having more time together.

    ‘To be honest, they are actually kind of excited that Don gets to be home with their dogs now, as their dogs are their life,’ they added. ‘Tim has said that now Don gets to play house-husband.

    ‘Tim says that Don was not happy there for a while and that he was worked to the bone. This is a much needed break for him.’
