However, the youngest of the Braxton clan proved that there were no hard feelings on last night’s ‘Dancing With The Stars.’

“Are you the only gay men on ‘Love & Hip-Hop?”

Wendy Williams has made a career out of not holding back. So, it’s little surprise that the former shock-jock went “there” when chatting to Milan Christopher and Miles Brock from ‘Love & Hip-Hop: Hollywood’ today.

The openly gay rappers, who are also a couple, stopped by to chat to the daytime maven about their decision to walk in their truth.

Naturally, conversation expanded to the broader topic of homosexuality in Hip-Hop – and the articulate pair didn’t shy away from sharing their two-cents.

Beyond re-affirming that there’s a lot folk don’t see behind the scenes in the music business, they interestingly seemed to take a thinly-veiled jab at Frank Ocean for his one-foot in/one-foot out approach to “coming out.”

Check out the interview below…

It’s been a rocky re-introduction to the music industry for Gwen Stefani.

2012 brought it the botched comeback of No Doubt, while last year’s solo re-boot was more soggy than success.

Presently in promo mode for the show’s latest season, the 46-year-old used the moment to open up about what went wrong with her 2014 efforts. She also unwrapped a new song titled ‘Used To Love You.’
