Lisa Vanderpump's interview on 'The Wendy Williams Show' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) started off somber, and ended slathered in barbeque sauce. In a strange juxtaposition, Williams first asked Vanderpump about the suicide of her 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,' cast-mate Taylor Armstrong's estranged husband, and then presented her with a McRib sandwich.

Vanderpump said that even though she had her personal problems with Taylor, she offered her a place to stay when things got bad. "I always had reservations about Taylor ... but, I said, if you need a place to live with your daughter, my house is always open to you," she said.

In advance of the Season 2 premiere of 'Braxton Family Values,' (Thurs., Nov. 11 at 9PM ET on WE TV) the Braxton sisters stopped by 'The Wendy Williams Show,' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) to face a roundtable of rapid-fire questions. Zeroing in on plot-lines and personal issues from the reality show's first season, she went from sister to sister asking about how they were doing.

"Tamar ... have you had any work done since the last time we saw you?" Wendy asked. "No! Why would you say that?" Tamar responded, before adding that the only change to her beauty regimen is that she's stopped tanning.

As it turns out, Wendy Williams is a lot more upset at Kathie Lee Gifford for spilling the beans on Khloe Kardashian's "six effing months" marriage prediction than Kris Jenner is. On Thursday Wendy had called Kathie Lee an "infiltrator" and a bad friend "who was trying to get a leg up on the rest of us in the media" for sharing Khloe's inflammatory quote on the 'Today' airwaves.

Jenner, completing what we can only hope will be the last stop of her book-selling/damage control tour, stopped by 'The Wendy Williams Show,' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox), where Wendy really wanted her to say that she felt betrayed by Kathie Lee sharing the insider gossip. But Jenner wouldn't bite, insisting that Kathie Lee was a close family friend who wasn't trying to hurt the family.

Lo and behold, the Kim Kardashian divorce spectacular is now starting feuds between daytime talk show hosts. With Kris Jenner expected to continue her daytime damage control tour Monday on 'The Wendy Williams Show,' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) Wendy set her sights on Kathie Lee Gifford, who earlier in the week spilled the beans that at the wedding, Khloe told her she gave the marriage "six effing months."

Wendy had some harsh words for Kathie Lee, who was invited to the ceremony as a close personal friend of the family. She called her "an infiltrator," and chastised her for sharing Khloe's snidely prescient remark on TV. "If that was my friend, it'd be over, right?" Wendy asked, as the audience erupted in applause.

Wendy Williams didn't pull any punches in her interview with 'Basketball Wives' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) starlet Draya Michele on Tuesday, confronting her with rumors about her promiscuity and asking why any "reasonable man" would ever consider marrying her after watching the show.

"Would you say you've dated over a dozen basketball players?" Wendy asked. She then followed up by asking her about the rumor, aired by other women on the show, that Michele had been with three basketball players in the same night.

Nobody does Halloween quite like the morning shows. 'The Wendy Williams Show' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) did its part to keep the day's madness going, recruiting the Situation into a couples' 'Pan Am' costume. With Wendy dressed as a stewardess and Sitch playing a pilot, the pair launched into a 'Pan Am' parody sketch laced with sexual innuendo.

In the skit, the Situation redefined 'DTF' as "down to fly," and, as you might imagine, threw around a few cockpit jokes. His performance was slightly less awkward than his disastrous bit at the Donald Trump roast, but we don't expect him to quit his day-job GTL'ing anytime soon.

Star Jones broke some news on 'The Wendy Williams Show,' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox), announcing that her novel 'Satan's Sisters' is being made into a TV show. The book focuses on a scandalous set of four female talkshow hosts and sounds like it could make some compelling TV.

Wendy was thrilled with the development, and gushed about how much she enjoyed the book. "It's about four women on a talk-show ... One of them pops pills, one of them is old and crotchety, one wants to come out of the closet," she explained. Wendy also couldn't resist suggesting herself for a part in the show. "By the way, you know I'm acting now," she said. "There might be a role..." Star responded.

When Tyra Banks and Wendy Williams get together, the conversation has a funny way of always turning to hair-care. When Tyra stopped by 'The Wendy Williams Show' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox), the conversation sounded like it could have taken place in a salon, as the two TV stars swapped tips on weaves, stories about cornrows and head-wraps to wear to the gym.

Tyra told Wendy a story about getting her hair done into cornrows while she was taking classes at the Harvard School of Business. "I had a girl come to my dorm and she hooked me up ... and then the next day in class my professors were like, 'Hello Tyra, this is a little different,'" she said. They then compared notes on weaves and head-scarves, and Wendy, somewhat frighteningly, lifted up hers to show her real hair-line.

Kelsey Grammer recently told Piers Morgan that his relationship with his ex-wife Camille was based on appearances rather than love, and that the pseudo-celebrity status she's attained from 'Real Housewives' was his "parting gift" to her. Grammer is getting roundly criticized for the remark, but not by Wendy Williams, who said on 'The Wendy Williams Show' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) that it was actually quite a lovely gesture.

"I thought that was a nice parting gift, as parting gifts go," Wendy joked. She then said that she's "forgiven" Kelsey for their awkward TV breakup after watching the latest season of 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.' It's made her realize that there's two sides to every story."

Dr. Drew Pinsky is a favorite guest of 'The Wendy Williams Show' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox). Williams, who is a former cocaine abuser, has always been fascinated with celebrity addictions, and a couple of weeks ago offered her couch as a "safe place" for Charlie Sheen, who appeared sober and healthy. Today she got Dr. Drew's perspective on Sheen's recent recovery.

When Williams asked Dr. Drew if he believed Sheen is now sober, he carefully said, "I believe he's abstinent right now." He went on to explain that if Sheen is an addict, and that all signs point to the fact that he is, then "he will go back. That's just the way addiction works."

Simon Cowell is known for being blunt, and he lived up to his reputation on 'The Wendy Williams Show' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) when he began his interview by marveling at the size of Wendy's boobs.

"TV doesn't quite tell the real story about your body either ... Seriously, all that I'm thinking is ... your t--- are huge," he said. Wendy laughed it off, taking it as a compliment, as Cowell sat back and took a sip of his tea.

MTV's latest docu-series 'Chelsea Settles' follows the journey of its namesake, a Pittsburgh native with a weight problem who's trying to break into LA's glitzy fashion industry.

Settles stopped by 'The Wendy Williams Show' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) in advance of the premiere and talked about the show and her personal journey. When they started filming, she weighed 324 pounds, but now, as Wendy said, she's looking "sexy."

Ana Gasteyer is in the midst of a TV transition, going from playing Larry David's girlfriend on Season 9 of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' to starring in the new surreal suburban comedy 'Suburgatory.' She went on 'The Wendy Williams Show' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) to talk about the show and her character.

'Suburgatory,' shot in a single-camera style and without a laugh-track, kicks off when Jeremy Sisto's single-dad character finds a condom in his daughter's sock drawer and decides to move out of the city. Gasteyer plays one of his wacky neighbors who demonstrates pretty quickly that weirdness remains in full supply, even outside the city.

As 'Wendy Williams' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox) went over Chaz Bono's performance on last night's 'DWTS,' she couldn't help but draw an obvious, but nonetheless hilarious comparison. "Governor Christie! I didn't know you danced!" she joked.

But what was more interesting than Chaz's resemblance to the man who will remain Governor of New Jersey were the tweets from Chaz's mother, Cher. Immediately after Chaz's performance, Cher tweeted "God hope Chaz hangs on till next week so I can come sit in the Audience & Watch."

Cedric the Entertainer made some news on his appearance on 'The Wendy Williams Show,' (weekdays, syndicated on Fox). The actor and comedian revealed he's been getting recruited by 'Dancing With the Stars,' and also talked about a 'Hot in Cleveland' spin-off that's in production focusing on his raunchy, former R&B-singing minister character.

On the 'Dancing' front, Cedric confirmed that they'd been recruiting him and showed off a few moves, but didn't seem inclined to join the show unless they "let you do your thing." Regardless, the audience appreciated his moves.
