The news can feel like a lot on any given day,
Starting point is 00:01:42 but you can't just ignore las noticias when important world-changing events are happening. That is where the Up First podcast comes in. Every single morning in under 15 minutes, we take the news and boil it down to three essential stories so you can keep up without feeling stressed out. Listen up first from NPR on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. What we got, Lana? So yesterday, I broke an exclusive. And again, if whenever you're looking for the latest and it's not happening here, follow
Starting point is 00:02:08 me at Lauren LaRosa on all social media, because we broke an exclusive, not I. We broke an exclusive that Wendy Williams, after being transported to a hospital, scored a 10 out of 10 on a psych or a competency test. So this test that she took, it was 10 questions she was asked and she answered all 10 questions correct. The questions basically just help the person who's asking her these questions be able to determine is she able to track, cognitively can she have
Starting point is 00:02:36 a conversation, does she know what's going on, where is her mental state? Is she incapacitated or not? Is she incapacitated or not? So we were told exclusively yesterday that she passed that test with flying colors, which is a great sign, because as you know, she's trying to get out of the facility
Starting point is 00:02:51 where she's living at right now, and that's their biggest issue. It's like, they're trying to claim that she's not able to live outside of her strengths that she's living in right now. Now to backtrack though, why all of this happened, because I think yesterday when people saw there was two stories that dropped there was a story about an
Starting point is 00:03:06 Investigation that's happening right now with Wendy Williams Conservator Sabrina Morrissey and then there was a story about her being taken to a hospital Before we were able to update people on what was happening at the hospital I think people were freaking out could you hear hospital Wendy you're like what happened? So what happened was? Gina monster. No, how you say Gina's last name? Gina Morse? No, not Morse. Monterrosa?
Starting point is 00:03:29 Don't give me a lie. My girl Gina. My girl Gina. Monterroso. Monterroso. Okay, Gina was, if you guys watch the Wendy documentary on Tubi that TMZ did, Gina is in that documentary. So she has been kind of like spearheading the actions
Starting point is 00:03:45 that Wendy is taking to try and get herself out of all of it. She's the president of Connect Care advisory group. She is a godsend. We had her on the Breakfast Club about maybe five years ago. I love her. You know she's helped my family out with a lot of things too as well. Yes I love her. So this all sparked off because she sent a letter to Adult Protective Services. And in that letter, she was basically detailing the conditions that Wendy is living under, versus how she thinks she should be living. She also, you know, she called the circumstances very troubling around just her treatment in general, like not being able to come outside for fresh air,
Starting point is 00:04:19 not seeing doctors according to Wendy as much as she wants to. She also talked a lot about just the floor that she's on and the confinement and being a memory unit, the whole staff approval thing. And she was like, yo, y'all need to get somebody down here because this is concerning, not only is it concerning for her health, but legally there's no way that like her rights are not being trampled over in this situation.
Starting point is 00:04:42 So after that happened, now NYPD gets involved. So NYPD gets involved or whatever and they step in. So now there are two investigations that are happening on the adult protective services side and the NYPD side. And they're basically looking into the conservatorship to see, yo, okay, is this violating her rights? And if so, how? Like what is happening? Should she be in this situation um so i think with you know in talking to Gina and talking to different people that like are very aware what's happening here when you see a photo like this and i printed out a photo from TMZ's video that they have of Wendy yesterday where Wendy was so excited just to see somebody at the bottom of her building
Starting point is 00:05:20 with a camera she started waving and it was like he had a free Wendy sign and he held it up and she started waving. She was just excited to see someone who knew who she was. You gotta start to think like, this is a human being. Like why? So then after that police come and there's a video of police removing Wendy from, you know, what she calls a luxury prison. And she was walking, that's what I love about it.
Starting point is 00:05:41 She looked good though. She walked out. Usually she's been in the scooter. She looked really good, she was walking. And she felt a little trembling in New York yesterday. It was when you walked down the sidewalk. They're shut up. They're shut up.
Starting point is 00:05:50 It was nice weather outside yesterday too, so it was a good day for her to be able to get some fresh air. But yeah, so they took her to the hospital yesterday and she did that test. And a big part of this is just getting some ammo so that she has some more backing. Cause on the other side of things, cause I had asked like, well, why,
Starting point is 00:06:05 like what's happening with the court stuff? We talk about lawyers, we talk about the court and they're like, yo, that just can take a minute. So, you know, bringing these additional eyes in, can get things going. So that is what happened yesterday with Wendy. She'll be calling into a breakfast club this morning. Wendy Williams will give us some more updates.
Starting point is 00:06:23 In about 15 minutes about 10 15 minutes She'll be checking in and she'll be telling us everything that's going on and what happened. Yes I know the the biggest thing when I'm like just running around or whatever the biggest thing that people talk to me about from Here is Wendy like people are so connected to her. They want to know how she's doing They want to know if this is a real thing people people think that this is like not real because it's so extreme I've never got like it ain't real. There are people that are like, I mean, I think that they know it not real because it's so extreme. I've never gotten- I don't think it ain't real. There are people that are like, I mean, I think that they know it's real.
Starting point is 00:06:47 They just can't believe it. Like, cause we know Wendy Williams as like Wendy Williams. So to see her now, people are like, how did this happen? But like everybody wants to know what's going on with Wendy. That's what's up though, she passed that test. Yeah, uh huh, she passed the test. So again, Wendy Williams will be checking in in about 10 minutes.
Starting point is 00:07:02 We'll be talking to her. Her and Gina, Gina will be with her too. Live on there, we'll be talking about everything that went down yesterday and what's going on now and what we should expect. And she is calling into The View on Friday as well. Yeah. It's crazy, it's kind of early for Wendy actually.
Starting point is 00:07:15 What you mean? Cause she's, nevermind. She got Suzanne though. She's working with her producer Suzanne from The Wendy Show. There was like- Suzanne ain't helping her wake up this morning? Yeah, but I mean, she going, not this morning for our show, but for The View, they've been talking
Starting point is 00:07:27 and kind of, there's been videos coming out of her, Suzanne just like talking and preparing for The View, so I'm excited about that as well too. All right. Random observation, Tory Lane's album Slam, crazy. You weren't here that day when we was talking about it. No, absolutely wasn't. Yes.
Starting point is 00:07:41 It's tough, huh? The album is crazy, crazy. Just like they start Peterson album, the album that he did before this one No, no, it was another range drop even dropping albums in jail because they dropped another one. This is his second or third Like the Canadian dude story album is good, but don't it sound like you're doing Drake karaoke It's like Drake reference tracks sometimes. He likes having a connection. Well, he actually, he sound like a lot of different people.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Cause he sound like The Weeknd in some of the songs from Daystar, Peterson. He can morph into anybody. That's something unique about him. He's very talented. But I don't know if it's a Toronto thing or if he's actually just doing Drake weekend karaoke. But a lot of them all sound the same.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Yeah, it might just be an area thing. You're talking about the different songs, but I know the album is not. He be Sample King anyway, but like he just the production too. I was like, oh, it's amazing. That's what you're doing back there. That wasn't on no phone. That was some equipment that that guy had in jail. I mean, in prison.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Don't get the cell ring into the thing. I don't know. That wasn't on no jail. I mean in prison. Don't get it right. The salary. I don't know. That wasn't on the phone. I said it was over the phone. Don't be singing to no man's equipment in prison. Jesus Christ. All right. All right.
