Wendy Williams took a series of cognitive tests this week ... and, a new report states that the results back up her original diagnosis.

The former talk show host's official test results have not been released ... but, People reports Wendy was again diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and aphasia. She was first diagnosed with both diseases in 2023.

We told you about the legal filing made by Williams' court-appointed guardian, Sabrina E. Morrissey, earlier this month in which her lawyers wrote, "Medical specialists have formed an opinion concerning [Wendy's] current neurological condition and diagnosis, including whether she has the ability to make decisions."

Danielle Spencer -- famous for playing Dee Thomas on the hit ’70s sitcom "What’s Happening!!" -- spent her final days in a hospital bed ... where she had to get food and medicine through an IV.

What's more, we're told Danielle had pneumonia in both lungs ... and she was losing weight and her gastric cancer was kicking up.

Jerry Jones just revealed he was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma over a decade and a half ago ... but he beat it with the help of an experimental drug.

Jones told the outlet he immediately turned to the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston for treatment ... and a short time later, he began PD-1 therapy to get healthy.

Wendy Williams' medical evaluation is complete -- but her court-appointed guardian Sabrina E. Morrissey is asking to pause the ongoing litigation with A&E over their 2024 documentary to let the guardianship court make a call on whether, or how, the guardianship will continue.

In an August 5 filing, obtained by TMZ ... Morrissey says the evaluation is complete and "medical specialists have formed an opinion concerning [Wendy's] current neurological condition and diagnosis, including whether she has the ability to make decisions" about the A&E litigation over the network's doc, "Where Is Wendy Williams?"

Morrissey says the opinion was cemented following a significant number of medical and neuropsychological test and scans, which included brain imaging.

Yella began the interview with a fairly full bottle of Crown Royal, but by the 2-hour mark, the bottle had dwindled down to a few swigs remaining.

Mississippi’s going through a bumpy time lately, and it’s not because of the heat -- turns out, the state is facing a major STD outbreak!

The Southern state, already struggling with sky-high rates of gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV, has just dropped a jaw-dropping stat -- roughly 1,200 cases per 100,000 people. To put that into perspective, that’s at least one person in a room of 100 Mississippians walking around with a sexually transmitted disease or infection. Yikes.

The latest Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report is now officially raising red flags -- specifically, Mississippi’s congenital syphilis rate is spiraling so wildly out of control, it’s officially been declared an epidemic.
