15. Wendy Williams said she was pressured to say things for camera

How real is the “reality show?” Well, talk show host Wendy Williams competed on Season 12, and afterward, she revealed that the show isn’t totally unscripted. She claimed that producers did try to get her to say certain things for the camera.

“I know this as a participant, OK,” Williams said on The Wendy Williams Show. “I’m reading, I’m like, ‘Wait, this is not how I’m feeling today, and I wouldn’t say that. I’m not going to say that,’ I would tell the camera, so instead, I would say what I want to say.”

This wasn’t the only time the television host claimed she pushed back on saying lines. “When they put you in the room and you have to talk to the camera about your experience,” she said on the Today show. “You know, the one-on-one with the camera — I was letting people know that they script you what to say. And I would look at my partner Tony Dovolani and say ‘Tony, I wouldn’t say this.'”
