South Africa has declared 10 April 2021 "Wendy Williams Day". Social media users have flooded the internet with posts honouring the US talk show host.

“Do you know what April 10th is?” she asked her audience. “I just found out myself. April 10th is Wendy Williams Day in South Africa — I am not lying.”
The reason for her declaring the "new national holiday" was due to the fact that her biopic Wendy Willams: Hot Topic and her documentary Wendy Williams: What a mess would be broadcast in South Africa on that day on the Lifetime channel on DSTV.
Briefly News took a look at what Mzansi had to say about the amazing Wendy Williams:
@CollinsMduduzi:
"It’s a Wendy Williams day but no one knows what must happen now."
@Kuda32713496:

Earlier, Briefly.co.za reported that TV and radio personality Anele Mdoda took to social media to excitedly share that she interviewed US talk show host Wendy Williams recently.

“I am probably embargoed but Tsek Kubo!!! Miss Wendy Williams.”
