Katt Williams and Wanda Smith: The $7.99 Joke That Sparked a Feud
The world of comedy is often full of quick-witted barbs, but sometimes those jokes can go too far, as seen in the ongoing feud between comedian Katt Williams and Atlanta radio personality Wanda Smith. It all started when Katt Williams, known for his unapologetically sharp humor, made a remark during a live radio interview, joking that Wanda Smith's jewelry was worth only "$7.99 with a free car wash." What might have been taken as a harmless dig ignited a multi-year feud that would soon have Atlanta buzzing with drama.
The beef escalated beyond the comedy stage when Wanda’s husband, LaMorris Sellers, reportedly confronted Katt outside the Atlanta Comedy Club following the interview. Armed with a gun, LaMorris attempted to defend his wife’s honor, turning the situation from a comedic exchange to a real-life conflict. Fortunately, no physical altercation occurred, but the confrontation added fuel to the fire, intensifying the public rivalry between Katt and Wanda.
