WATCH: Wendy Williams passes out on live television

Wendy Williams passed out during the Halloween episode of her talk show on Tuesday morning.

The 53-year-old host was dressed in costume as the Statue of Liberty and as she was speaking to the audience her speech started slowing down and she stumbled before falling to the ground.

Video shows members of her staff running to her aid.

After a commercial break, she told the audience: “That was not a stunt. I overheated in my costume. I passed out.”

“I’m a champ and I’m back,” she continued, according to a video posted by a viewer.

The FDNY responded to a call for a medical episode around 10: 30 a.m. at 221 W. 26th St. The address is the same location as the “Wendy” studio, but authorities would not confirm to the Daily News if the call was in response to the host’s on-air medical scare.

She seemed to have recovered in the episode as she was dancing around with fans who were also dressed in Halloween costumes.

Ronn Torossian, a spokesperson for Williams, confirmed to The News that she fainted on-air due to dehydration.

“(She is) on her way home for a good day and ofnite (sic)sleep. She has been examined by medical professionals and is well. She is ok and will continue as shows as planned. She will address this on-air tomorrow,” Torossian said. “She has never missed a day of work and is looking forward on November 13th to her 1500th show.”

“The Wendy Williams Show” airs weekdays on My 9.
