The talk show host uses a “Price Is Right” catchphrase as a crude joke.

This was while discussing the death of Amie Harwick just days after apologizing to gay men for rude remarks.

What does this controversy reveal about the use of humor in the face of tragedy and the power of words to impact others?

Wendy Williams is under fire for a recent joke she made about Drew Carey’s ex-fiancée, Amie Harwick, who was murdered earlier this month. The talk show host faced heavy criticism after making light of the tragedy and has since faced backlash from fans and colleagues.

During a recent episode of “The Wendy Williams Show,” Williams made a crude joke about Harwick’s death. She said, “She was killed, not by Drew, but by the ex—come on down!” The joke was met with laughter from the audience but was met with widespread upset from those who felt the comment was insensitive and inappropriate.

Following the controversy, Williams issued a public apology for her words, saying, “My intention was not to cause pain or make light of anyone’s death.” She also extended her condolences to Harwick’s family and friends.

Despite her apology, many people are still calling for consequences for Williams’ actions. Harwick’s own brother, Chris, took to social media to express his disappointment with Williams’ comments, saying they were “distasteful and hurtful.”

The controversy highlights the ongoing debate around the use of humor in the face of tragedy. While some argue that humor can be a helpful coping mechanism, others believe there are some topics that should never be joked about, particularly when the wounds are still fresh.

It is important to remember that words have power and can have serious consequences, especially in cases like these where the victim is no longer here to defend themselves.

In conclusion, Wendy Williams’ joke about Amie Harwick’s murder has sparked outrage and raised important questions about the role of humor in our society. While apologies can be helpful in acknowledging mistakes and moving forward, it is important to remember that they cannot undo the damage that has already been done. It is crucial that we all strive to be more aware of the impact our words can have and do our best to show respect and empathy for those who are hurting.
