‘ROUND THE WAY: JANET HUBERT (AUNT VIV) GOES IN ON WENDY WILLIAMS ABOUT WHITNEY

Looks like Janet Hubert aka Aunt Viv has found a new victim to cut to pieces. Move over Will Smith because Ms. Hubert has got a word or two for talk show host Wendy Williams. After watching Wendy’s emotional commentary on the death of Whitney Houston, the former Fresh Prince actress decided to write an open letter to Wendy, calling her out for her past treatment of Whitney Houston and celebrities alike (during her radio days).
