Wendy Williams humiliated a singer Beyoncé Is $500 Million Rich, Says She Has a ‘Fifth Grade  Education’

Beyoncé first gained recognition as a member of the girl group, ‘Destiny’s Child’, and then her star continued to rise as a solo performer, entrepreneur, and better half of rap mogul Jay-Z. Despite having millions of fans all over the world, this superstar also receives criticism from time to time.

There are some notable men and women who appear to despise Beyoncé, including legendary singers, and of course, aspiring members of the entertainment industry. One such critic was Wendy Williams, the blunt talk show host, who once said some less-than-kind things about the CUFF IT singer.

She is well known for her ‘brutally honest’ nature.

Wendy Williams Humiliated Beyoncé

Back in 2012, Williams admitted to the audience during a talk show that she enjoys Queen B (Beyoncé). But here’s the catch: Right after that, she blatantly called Beyoncé an ‘unintellegent’ person with an  education equivalent to a fifth grader. Say what?

When Wendy Williams Slammed Beyoncé

Wendy Williams has never been one to hold back on her opinions. That is especially accurate in the case of Beyoncé. Williams has criticized the 41-year-old artist on numerous occasions over the years. But her biggest jab came in 2012, when she slammed the singer’s way of speaking during a preview of her HBO documentary, Life Is But a Dream.

Williams began one of her signature, Hot Topics segments with, “I am a Beyoncé fan. I’m going to be watching this documentary — because fortunately one of the TVs in our kitchen has closed captioning, so I’ll be able to understand what she says.”

While her audience gasped in response, Williams continued the insults, saying:

“You know Beyoncé can’t talk. Beyoncé sounds like she has a fifth-grade education.”

Though she continued to reiterate that she was a fan, Williams said, “We have to call a spade a spade.”

Williams has made a lot of contentious claims about Beyoncé’s life, including her personal and professional decisions. The 58-year-old host once claimed that the Irreplaceable artist was going through a “hood divorce” amid her marital problems with Jay-Z in 2014.

Back then, Williams told the audience:

“They’re reportedly trying to figure out a way to split without divorcing—in other words, a hood divorce. I do think, though, that they are vain enough that when the love is over, that they will not divorce because they’re scared of what we’re gonna say.”

Has Beyoncé Attended College?

Beyoncé didn’t attend college, but that didn’t stop her from amassing a massive net worth of $500 million ($1.8 billion when combined with her husband, Jay-Z). She attended Parker Elementary School, the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, and Alief Elsik High School in 1990.

In the midst of everything, the Halo hitmaker’s music career was developing fairly quickly. She and Kelly Rowland attended an all-girl entertainment group audition when she was eight years old. They eventually formed Destiny’s Child, initially consisting of four people.

They released Killing Time, their debut album, the following year. Following that, the group continued to put out hits, and each member also found personal success.

Beyoncé’s debut solo album, Dangerously In Love, was released in 2006. She won 5 Grammys, 11 million copies were sold, and it topped the charts.

Thus, it is safe to say that she has received the most nominations of any female artist in Grammy history.
