Wendy Williams broke down in tears on the stage of her show while telling the audience about her recent health crisis. "It was scary. It was really scary," said Williams after having suddenly passed out on live TV.

"All I could think about in the middle of the scare was 'don't pull the podium over you because that'll make it worse,'" she continued.

As Breaking Celebrity News previously reported, Williams was announcing her Halloween costume contest on TV when her eyes suddenly went wide and she was seen stumbling in heels on the fragile stage. She then fell on her back as cameramen immediately rushed to her aid.

Williams assured fans that she did not have a stroke or a heart attack. "My blood pressure was fine, my heart rate was fine," she said.
