Wendy Williams chastised NFL star Odell Beckham Jr for laying hands on another man’s butt over the weekend.
The incident occurred during a post-game celebration in LSU’s locker room after winning the national title at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in Louisiana on Monday night. The Louisiana native is an LSU alumni.
When Beckham spotted an officer bending over, he stared intently at the cop’s buttocks before delivering a hard slap on the cop’s butt.
The New Orleans Police Department issued an arrest warrant for Beckham for “simple assault” on Thursday.
“You should’ve known better,” said Williams, 55, on Friday’s episode of her daytime talk show.
“Odell at 27 years old, you’re old enough to understand political correctness in the time we live in now. You can’t just slap people on the booty. He probably knows it’s not right for a man to a woman or a woman to a man, but you can’t even do that locker room thing. That cop wasn’t playing that.”
Wendy continued: “You’re lucky you only got battery. What if he filed for sexual assault? … Odell, come on, you can’t play that clown mess!”
Nola.com reports that a judge declined to approve an initial warrant because it was for misdemeanor sexual battery. The judge later approved an amended warrant for simple battery.
