she never compared herself to chappelle in any way... I'M saying that when celebrities' have a dispute they go to theyre fanbase for support. That means they either go on stage or send out a video on social media to their fans and say hey guys some bullshit went down and I need your support. Thats what dave chappelle did and thats what amy shumer did...hell Pirnce has done it...michael jackson has done it and rappers are constantly doing it... thats what ANY celeb has done particularly in the social media era since theyre able to reach theyre fanbase more directly than before. Why people are acting like she's wrong for doing that is what I'm pointing out.
She compared herself to Chappelle Rock and that White girl and was insulted because they offered her 500k and they got millions
I dont know what monique has made as a stand up. But she values her time and talent at more than that and thats what she stands on.
Then she should produce her own shit and pay herself because she doesn't define the market the mofokrs who are paying do
The KOC vs the QOC is like the nba vs the wnba but the stars in the wnba are still stars and they stand on that too what do you want them to do..act like their not good at what they do??
Until the WNBA generates the type of money as the NBA there is no comparison. Overseas Women's basketball generates more money and they get paid more.
The oscar speaks to her body of work in general. But she had a fairly popular sitcom and a talk show and she's worked alot considering most people here dont think she's much of a talent.
The Oscar does not speak to a body of work It speaks to one movie role period and it has nothing to do with standup comedy and what you are worth there
one question no one has answered so far.....BEFORE PRECIOUS..WHEN WAS MONIQUE CALLED OUT AS DIFFICULT?? Hell since precious, she's done a vegas residency that ran for a year and worked on a few movies and a tv show... have you heard any issues from them??
Before Monique did Precious and won an Oscar for it she was unknown in most circles. She was small time How many mofoks watched Phat Girls ? She did an unfunny comedy show in a women's prison that did nothing to make her sought after.....In fact, when it come to black female comics she was always behind Adele Givens and Sommore..
And yes I have heard she is difficult and was because I have a niece that works in the industry... But her head got big because of the Oscar
Ask yourself the same question before Precious was she calling mofokrs out ?
All she did after Precious and what in that list screams Star?
