Sherri Shepherd has huge dreams for her upcoming talk show, “Sherri,” which will replace “The Wendy Williams Show.” Her dream guest list is a veritable who’s who in show business and beyond. “For the first week, I am wondering what Oprah is doing? I want to know what Idris Elba is doing and if his wife could part with him for one hot minute,” she told Deadline. “Come on, Regé-Jean Page. Hey, Method Man! I want him to come on. ‘Michelle Obama, we’re both from Chicago. Are you and your husband doing anything that week?'”
As for the possibility of Wendy Williams appearing as a guest on “Sherri”? Shepherd said, “of course,” she’d love to have her, even though they haven’t really spoken about it. Page Six revealed that William’s representative issued a statement that said the ailing talk show host understands that her time slot can’t be held indefinitely due to the realities of syndicated television. Should Williams’ health allow it, there is the possibility of her show returning in some capacity.
