So how you doin’?

Wendy Williams is doin' just fine, celebrating her 10th season in syndication with a 10-city tour where she'll dish live to fans from across the country, coming to Buckhead Theatre August 16.

The show sold out soon after it was announced on Tuesday for the 1,800-seat venue in Buckhead. There is a wait list but who knows how long that is.

UPDATE on Tuesday, August 14: An unknown number of new tickets were made available here.

For those lucky enough to get seats, she will do versions of her “Hot Topics” and “Ask Wendy” segments. There will also be selfie stations and on-site glam squad professionals who can do your hair, nails, or make-up.

The show airs at 10 a.m. weekdays in Atlanta on Fox 5, where it pulls in very strong ratings. It’s no surprise Williams would select Atlanta as one of her ten cities.
