While many of our favorite artists have fielded allegations of benefiting from “payola” – the act of a platform (streaming or radio outlets mainly) accepting pay or bribes from record labels to boost an artist’s chart or certification stats – the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) believes the practice has simply gotten out of hand.

Wendy Williams has never been one to hold her tongue. And while her marital woes initially saw her skew coy, she’s now speaking up and out.

The talkshow host stopped by The View today and didn’t hold back questioned about her divorce from husband Kevin Hunter.
