Last weekend, an interview with comedy star Katt Williams went off the rails and ended with an exchange of insults. A few days later, Atlanta’s V-103 FM co-host Wanda Smith was back in the news after claims that her husband LaMorris Sellers brandished a gun when Williams attempted to confront Smith at the Atlanta Comedy Theater.
Williams stopped by the show to help his comedy mentee Red Grant promote an upcoming performance. Williams and Smith clashed on air.
Smith claims that Williams attempted to bring the beef into the streets when he saw her at the show, where she was also slated to perform.
“He saw me, made a b-line to where I was and was like, ‘I told you, [expletive] with me will make you go viral,’” Smith said as she recapped the incident on her radio show. “My husband said, ‘find something else to do dog.’ He told my husband ‘I’ll jump on you.’”
Smith said she couldn’t talk about what happened following the exchange “for legal reasons,” but said Williams told her, “I’ll jump on your big [expletive].”
Surveillance footage later showed Williams approach Smith and pivot towards Sellers. Sellers appeared to lift his shirt, after which Williams is seen turning and walking in the opposite direction. “This situation made me look like the weakest, lamest person in the world,” Sellers later told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “It made me look like I got mad because my wife got roasted by Katt Williams on the air. It had nothing to do with what was on the air. That’s what comedians do. When he came to the club, he targeted my wife. As a man, I’m not built like that. I couldn’t possibly let that happen. I have to protect my wife. I wasn’t looking for conflict. I just wanted him to keep it moving. He chose to do different.”
