Angela Yee addresses the backlash she received after making comments about her time at “The Breakfast Club.”

Angela Yee recently discussed the time she worked with DJ Envy and Charlamagne tha God at “The Breakfast Club.” The media personality told Tamron Hall that working with the company was difficult because she was the “only woman” on set.

“I was the only woman who worked there, too. When it came to producers, camera people – and it wasn’t an easy room for me to be in,” Yee explained. “I feel like I did need more like backup.”

Following the interview, Yee’s former cohost DJ Envy and past guests on the show, responded to her claims with their opinions. In particular, Erica Mena and Lil Mama commented on how Yee is equally as harsh as her male colleagues, who have been notorious for making women cry with their remarks.

“That’s just not true,” he wrote in The Shade Room‘s Instagram comment section. “There are plenty of women that work behind the scenes on @breakfastclubam. It was her, Charlamagne and myself, so she was the only woman on air. But behind the scenes, I mean, our boss . The actual person that pays our bills and pays our checks and hires us, is Thea Mitchem, who’s a woman. I think she misspoke, I think the words were taken out of I guess technicality. I’m sure she would clean it up, but there’s a lot of women who work on that show.”

Nevertheless, Yee clarified her statements and addressed the criticism.

“Usually I don’t comment or go back and forth with people, but there’s too much spinning,” she began. “‘In the room’ referred to the people in the studio: the producer, board op, videographer, and hosts. Yes, they are men.”

She continued, “That doesn’t mean that there aren’t amazing women who are execs, salespeople, interns, and in other departments. I’ve said it on many occasions: that it can be hard when your viewpoint is different based on your experience. I didn’t anticipate that this would cause such a firestorm.”
