Talk show host Wendy Williams fired a major shade shot at superstar Beyoncé by claiming the singer-actress “can’t talk” and “sounds like she has a 5th grade education.” Now, we know Beyoncé got past the fifth grade (right?) and we don’t necessarily think she’s dumb. But sometimes she does sound a little … well, you know.

Here are 10 quotes from Mrs. Shawn Carter that may have you wondering if Wendy was on to something. –stereo williams

I’m sorry but you are seriously reaching. Nothing that she said in the above statements sounding dumb or slow. I guess that makes me slow as well for not picking up on where she sounds like an adult with a 5th grade education. Sorry..must be that college education.

I see nothing wrong with a young woman speaking plainly!! The writer of this article needs to
stand down. I wasted 10 click throughs on this sorry write-up!

Excuse me? Some of these statements don’t even reach 5th grade education, wow… Also, her voice is completely overrated, very good though, but not that fabulous. Maybe it’s my college education, but I agree with the writer…

Wow, great compilation. I always knew she was not bright but did not realize she is “special”. Part of her problem is trying to sound deep and modest, which she hopes will differentiate her from other pop tarts. Sorry, she sounds even dumber than most. And she came out with a song about her ego? Pity that Obama refers to this as being a role model. Great job, Wendy. You are the only one to point out the emperor is naked.

Loved the article and, Beyonce fans need to lighten up, even Bush has some strange and funny quotes. Everything does not have to be serious, all the time. Peace

She’s way past dumb.

To be fair, she’s been around a good 15+ years now and was in the mainstream at 17 or 18 years old. If someone compiled a list of all of our own dumbest quotes from that age and over that span of time I’m pretty sure we wouldn’t sound much better.

Still this was cool for a good laugh or two, especially the one about ‘better than talking to a bunch of kids.’ haahhahaha

she just needs to stick to what she does best….look pretty….good for her for making a good life for herself, but that doesn’t mask the fact that she’s “simple” (if you know what I mean), Wendy Williams is not at fault, she is just doing what SHE does best…..stating the obvious, and saying what other people are thinking, but afraid to say. Proof is in the pudding people, stop being so sensitive….sheesh!!!!!

Wendy Williams looks like a man and is very unsophisticated? She isn’t very articulate to me so she needs to stop talking about people!

Beyonce can always learn to speak properly. She is a performer and she does what she does very well. I think Wendy was wrong for calling her out like that out of no where she comes with that.Beyonce may want to improve her communication skills better but if she doesn’t she will always be rich. Wendy gets paid to talk about people but I think sometimes she runs her mouth like she is so perfect. How would she like it if someone said she looks mannish and her husband cheated and got her sued for sexual harrassement.
