Wendy Williams has a history of stirring up controversy with her off-color comments. But The Wendy Williams Show host found herself on the opposite side of the spectrum when a newly-surfaced bikini picture resulted in a surplus of body shaming.

Rather than poke fun of Williams, Atlanta rap titan T.I., chose to congratulate her on her success.

The Hustle Gang boss, who admitted he’s been a victim of Williams’ shade, shared a photo collage to Instagram on Tuesday (September 12) that featured the talk show host in her bikini.

I’m gon be respectful because regardless of her flaws she’s still a independent black business woman that’s had to fight her way through life to get where she is. JUST LIKE THE PEOPLE SHE JUDGES DAILY!!!

“But I’m gon try something new & different this time,” he continued. “Let’s see if the power of mercy moves her heart to not be so malicious & vindictive in the future when she’s speaking on the lives of other strangers when they’re going through their own PERSONAL tough times. That’s my approach… let’s see.”

Williams didn’t respond directly to T.I., but did reveal her plans to “talk about my beach body” on the season premiere of The Wendy Williams Show on September 18.
