  1. I cannot believe anyone like you could get a show.
    You have no talent and you push close to being a racist. As soon as your show comes on , off goes TV. I had rather watch paint drip then to hear your big mouth. There must be better talent in the US then you.

  3. I think that the comment that was made about Gabbi was horrible and insentive. This young lady got nominated for an Oscar or first time ever acting. What does her weight have to do with anything? Robin should know the struggles of being a big women because she admitted that she struggled with weight. I hate when people try to target someone for their weight.That really makes me angry.

  4. It’s a problem with people. People tend to forget that when your saying public statements about someone. It generally doesn’t help them. They began to tune you out. Let someone who Gabby is close to give her guidance. Hearing it from two people with Negitive written all over their foreheads aren’t going to help at all. Its crazy because we tend to criticize others like as if were perfect. When you feel like you have to give comments in the public eye. Makesure your body is where it needs to be. WORDS FROM BROOKE…..

  5. Robin is a sad excuse for a sister, way before she made fun of this young lady, I agree that gabby should come down to a healthy weight but there’s nothing like hearing it over and over again on national tv, and the radio over and over again. Wendy I have grown to like you and your show, do all of us a favor, don’t let one sister tear another one down on your stage, you are in control. You knew robin was just ridin howards coat tail and really making fun of gabby.

  6. Why so much fuss about Gabby and her getting parts…There is and has been other men and women in the entertainment world who were considered “obese” and found part…We all have a opinion, however what gives your guest {Robin} and her employer the right to decide what to happens to Gabby’s career…..But by the grace of GOD go you……

  7. Why does everyone want to deny that this Gabby girl is morbidly OBESE???
    It is one of the biggest problems in America and we can no longer afford to just pretend like it does not kill people….

    I don’t know what has everybody so up in arms on here but you can see the truth, the girl has a problem.

    I would say the same thing if it were obviously drugs or alcohol but it is weight & food and it can kill you too.

    How many people here actually listen to or heard this episode of the howard stern show?
    i’ve listened for 15 years and robin’s discription was 100% accurate!!!

  8. In my opinion” Robin and Howard are people who suffers from low self esteem.
    Their comments about Gabby were rude and disrespectful. When someone has to talk down about someone it appears you are the ones with the problem.

    Their comments did not appear to be comments of concern but of disgust.

    Robin,its people with attitudes like you and Howard that disturb me. Behaving like two silly monkeys. Such self righteous attitudes.

    Then Robin appears on the Wendy show and was not ( woman enough) to own up to her negative comments towards Gabby. Too me Robin you are a (PHONY).

    Gabby is a talented and gifted actress.First time acting and her work is recongized by the best in the business.

    Rock on Gabby!

  9. Hey Robin that was a good cover up for your stupid comment about Gabby How can you talk and you disgrace every Black woman on the planet earth Do you get a thrill out of looking at naked women on Howard Stern Come on How can you even be on that show after that comment . Get a life and get to know Jesus because you need him in your life right now. Try him and get away from that thing you call a show. Nobody has anything good to say about you and thats sad.

  10. I know that this may be a hard pill for most to swallow, but the reality is that people are shallow, and people do want the stars to look a certain way. It does not matter for people like Robin & Howard to look that good because they are in radio and it’s their voice that matters. However, in an industry (film) where looks brings in part of the attraction, people do want just that. They do not necessarily have to look thin, but at least what people consider “appealing” to the eye. The same goes for us “regular” people; we are judged by the way we look for things such as jobs even though people are too afraid to admit it. I know people who have been overlooked for a job that they were more qualified for just because they didn’t “look the part”. This unfortunately is the reality that we deal with and we just have to try and learn to be comfortable with ourselves and not worry about what other people think.

  11. i saw G. Sidibe on saturday night live and laughed so hard. maybe i will start watching this show every saturday night, its crazy lol. thanks for the heads up! on a critical note: she kept forgetting her lines a lot throughout the night, but i imagine she was under a lot of pressure there to begin with. they seem to have an astute bunch at saturday night live to cover all such topics like the government worker they had Sidibe and that dude play lol, wow. its hardball comedy fo sho. and Sidibe held her own. i especially enjoyed the opening skit where she play-sang her intro to the tune of “The Shoop Shoop Song (It’s In His Kiss)” lol lol lol.

    again folks, thanks for the heads up.

  12. Well Wendy, please tell me when was the last time
    Robin has been out from behind a mic and
    being interviewed no less??? The only reason
    she is talking period is because she has
    lost weight and decided she is halfway happy
    with the way she looks to comment about
    someone whom she used to look like! I think
    she is upset because when she was a struggling
    nobody and OBESE Hollywood didn’t accept her!
    It’s a new day Robin! Have the class to
    recongize talent!! Maybe if you had a lil drive
    and self confidence you would be in Hollywood
    and not some pet monkey for a pig such as
    Howard Stern!!! On to the next Wendy!!!!

  13. wow, i never heeard of robin quvier but it seem like nobody likes her. i wonder how she became a guest in the first place.

  14. LOL @ “you must look good enough to be appealing to the eye. It’s just human nature for us to pick eachother apart for whatever so lets not give this any more news, if Gabbi wants to remain Obese and continue to add to the epidemic, so be it.”

    *GOOD POINT*

  15. It’s nice that she made her comments sound so caring, but somehow talking about Gabby and her weight still is rude. I’m not sure when it happened, but all of a sudden it’s okay to just walk up to people and tell them how awful their life will be if they don’t (insert thing here), because no one will accept them because of it. I don’t care how fat someone is, unless they’re coming to me for help with their weight, it’s still not my place to tell them how they will never achieve anything until they lose weight. It’s supposed to come off as “well meaning” and “caring” but it isn’t; it’s rude, thoughtless and I’m frankly tired of hearing how she’s “not a part of Hollywood” because she’s fat…she was nominated for an Oscar. How much more Hollywood can that be? Does Robin Quivers have an Oscar nomination?

  16. Wendy I disagree with Robin first of all she is a fake sell out, secondly who is she to tell gaby that in order to be successful she has to loose wieght? she is already successful, possibly more successful that Robin Quviers will ever be, what gives her the right to judge, if gaby is happy at her weight (by her own admission she is) and she successful I think ppl should accept that and quit trying to make everyone in Hollywood a size 2, I think Gaby is great just the way she is!

  17. Wendy has had some questionable guest on her show but this takes the cake. What in the world made you have the side kick monster on your show? This woman could care less about Gabby’s weight she just wanted to make fun of her. I don’t see how Robin can make fun of anyone looks have she looked in the mirror lately. She’s not picture perfect herself.

  18. who is this nothing of a woman gaborey is beautiful and a very talented the size of your body has nothing to do with your talent if it wasn’t for howard stern she wouldn’t even have a job and while were at it lets do something about that stringy mess of hair and the too small dress she had on . lol wendy.

  19. Robin,

    You did not own up to your BIG mouth!!! You and Howard were not concerned about Gabby’s health. You only wanted to put her down. It is so sad to see self hatred. Robin, you were once Gabby’s size dear.. Do you remember?? Also, YOU (ROBIN) are not Hollywood’s view of fit either. American movie goers determine who they want to see at the box office and thank God it is not you!!

    Get a grip and a life Robin!!!

  20. Well its no ones business what this young woman does because she beleives shes fine and doing something different HOWEVER, I don’t see Nikki Blonski, Rikki Lake ( although she has lost some weight), America Ferrer or even Kirstie Alley with her nasty ass (her reality show sucks) getting regular roles anywhere so it has everything to do with how one looks. Even Jennifer Hudson lost MORE weight after her oscar win and her career has blossomed, so the FAT fact is that Skinny may not be in but you must look good enough to be appealing to the eye. It’s just human nature for us to pick eachother apart for whatever so lets not give this any more news, if Gabbi wants to remain Obese and continue to add to the epidemic, so be it.
