Catfight on the tube: Wendy Williams sparred with reality Tv show villain Omarosa on Monday in a spat that turned physical.

Omarosa was appearing on Fox's "The Wendy Williams Show" to promote her upcoming book but instead of the standard book-chat, the talk turned nasty. "I wanted to throw her off the set," Williams later told The Associated Press.

Things got uglier when Williams grabbed Omarosa's book cover to hold it up to the camera, and Omarosa snatched it back out of Williams' hand.

"Omarosa wished her career was my career," Williams told the AP. "Omarosa is a delusional, D-list, pathetic woman."

In the end, Omarosa attacked Williams' appearance, asking the talk show host whether she had had a nose job and suggesting she shouldn't wear wigs.

But Williams didn't stay silent throughout the heated interview. She called Omarosa "a typical angry black woman" and suggested cosmetic injections could fix her wrinkles.

Will there be a rematch?

"I have no reason to invite Omarosa back to the show," said Williams. "That's done. She had her moment." An after-hours telephone message and e-mail to Omarosa's publicist were not immediately returned Monday.
