Da Brat Sets Wendy Williams Straight About Perceived Interest

The rapper said she was being friendly because Williams seemed lonely.

Da Brat told Wendy Williams that she was not flirting with her when she sent Williams a text message to check on her.
Williams claimed Da Brat tried to pick her up via text message. Da Brat set Williams straight when she appeared on the The Wendy Williams Show on June 25.
The rapper called out Williams for claiming that she tried to pick up the veteran media personality via a text message during her Hot Topics segment. Williams noted how Da Brat had a strong pickup game.
“She was like, ‘So whatchu doin’?’ I’m like, ‘Da Brat, I’m minding my own business. What do you mean?’ ‘Is you alone?’ Oh she tried it. Oh please! I said, ‘Look here, Brat, we are friends. Like, I’m a girl who’s your friend, that’s it.’”
When the “Funkdafied” rapper came on for her segment, she set the newly-divorced talk show host straight about the text.

“The last time we talked and I texted you, it was after I saw your documentary, and I felt like you ain’t got no real friends and I wanted to be your friend, so I called to check on you. I love you but I ain’t never been attracted to you, girl.”

Williams asked her if she would like her if Williams was gay, and seemed a little hurt by the rapper’s reply.

“No,” replied Da Brat. “I mean, I love you, but I wouldn’t want to get with you like that, Wendy.”

Williams implied that her previous speculations about the rapper being gay before she came out might have helped Da Brat with the coming-out process, but she was quickly rebuffed. Da Brat came out of the closet about her sexuality last year, and she let Williams know that her speculations had nothing to do with the rapper’s coming-out process.

“Girl, you were never part of my process,” said Da Brat. “Not until I was ready to reveal anything did anybody know anything, and when I did it, that’s when I let the world know. Back in the day it wasn’t cool. You couldn’t do that. Ellen [DeGeneres] lost her job, her show. Back in the day you could not do that, but thank God it’s different now. And I get to live out loud and live in my truth.”

The Chicago rapper was in New York to promote her new reality show called Brat Loves Judy. The WETV show will broadcast Da Brat and her relationship with girlfriend and entrepreneur Jessica “Judy” Dupart. Dupart is the CEO of Kaleidoscope Hair Products.

Williams told Da Brat that she wanted to take her out to dinner in New York after the show, but the rapper was catching a flight to Los Angeles that evening.
