Show executives of “The Wendy Williams Show” have allegedly come up with a backup plan as season 13 has continued to be delayed multiple times. However, execs have their eyes on listing Nick Cannon as Williams’ replacement for the time being due to his popularity and platform.
“It would not be a far stretch for Nick to take her time slot…Debmar-Mercury [which produces both shows] is really pushing to make Nick Canon’s show a huge success,” the source added. “He already has a major platform, and a huge fanbase, so it is an easy win. So, if Wendy’s show ends up being a no-go, their backup plan is already set,’ a close source told Page Six.
