Why is Wendy Williams’ Conservatorship Not Receiving the Same Attention as Britney Spears?

In the last few decades, outspoken and confrontational Wendy Williams has been a defining voice in popular culture, with clips and gifs of her talk show The Wendy Williams Show popping up on every social media site. However, that all changed when Williams was placed under guardianship. The queen of hot topics and her family have fought for her voice to be heard. Unlike Britney Spears, who made headlines with the #FreeBritney movement, Williams has not received the same attention as Spears. Racial bias, stigma around age, and being isolated have made it so that Williams does not have the same traction as Spears. There are a lot of similarities between Williams and Spears' situation with conservators, but the differences are what has stood in the way of getting Williams the help she needs.
