Before Wendy left the stage, she did “Ask Wendy” which is another one of the favorite segments on her show where she gets asked a crazy question from an audience member. Wendy gracefully left the stage and said good night. I have included below a recap of the night so you can enjoy if you did not make it to a tour stop. I hope you all enjoy!
