Today we got bombarded with a lot of news about comedian Sheryl Underwood, and to be honest, as of this writing there is still so much going around we can’t sift through all of it.
But this much is certain; Underwood is no longer apart of the nationally syndicated Tom Joyner Morning Show.
Now we have heard reports that Underwood just quit abruptly and there have been reports that she left after giving Joyner the appropriate amount of time before she resigned.
Maybe the folks at the Tom Joyner Morning Show are just upset because it seems that Underwood has joined the competition- The Steve Harvey Morning Show, which airs in 64 markets and has more than 7 million listeners. One thing is for certain and that’s with her move, she’s made quite a few people upset.
According to several outlets, she has forever burned her bridge with the Tom Joyner Morning Show, Radio One and all of its affiliate companies. Plus there was the supposed bashing of Tom on Steve’s show, and all of the other so-called comments.
Although folks are saying she did a dirty deed, Underwood denies that she did anything wrong.“I was just on Steve’s show to promote the clubs I was in various cities,” she added. “Even though I am no longer a contributor to TJMS I will continue to support Tom Joyner’s Take A Loved One To The Doctor, The Virtual College Tour and HBCU’s 100%…I said as much to Oscar Joyner in a very warm phone call. This new work with Steve,” she noted, “allows me the opportunity to expand my brand into different avenues. It’s the chance of a lifetime. It was an offer that I couldn’t refuse.”
Underwood will be missed and may be hated on while she transitions. Despite hurt feelings and sad faces, she is glad she made the move.
