Terrell Owens appeared on The Wendy Williams Show, where he opened up about his financial problems and ending his longtime friendship with Kita and Monique from VH1’s The T.O. Show. “I’m not a frivolous guy,” Owens said, “I do take responsibility because I should have been on top of my finances.” Despite earning almost $80 million over the course of his fifteen season-long career, Owens reveals he’s “broke” in this month’s GQ cover story. The Huffington Post reports:

Terrell Owens has fallen on hard times. Unable to find a job in the NFL during the 2011 season, Owens revealed in GQ’s February cover-story that he’s broke and alone after making nearly $80 million over the course of his football career. The flamboyant former wide receiver told the “The Wendy Williams Show” (weekdays on Fox) that he’s estranged from his former best friends Kita Williams and Monique Jackson, who starred alongside him on his VH1 reality show “The T.O. Show.”
