I don't know what she thought but I don't know anybody that would think DL would open for her.
DL HUGHLEY: Come on down!! It's Your Turn to Get Shit on By MONIQUE......SMH
- Thread starter Deezz
- Start date
Most of us support Black women so that it the issue and really shouldn’t have been brought up.
Katt Williams even said Netflix bases their offers on tickets sales. Amy Shumer was hot in these streets when Netflix paid her, Mo’Nique wasn’t.
She went on the rant after she was told she was blackballed.
Do you agree with her on the NETFLIX situation?
I don’t agree with her telling everyone to boycott Netflix.
But it was stated by other Black female comedians that Netflix did in fact lowball them too. I think she should’ve shot her own special, shopped it around and moved on because Netflix isn’t the only platform.
But in short, no I don’t.
^^^^^
I'm a little bit surprised by the hate for her.
Especially when lee Daniel's apologized and even the other 2 apparently want to make peace after the 50 Cent " intervention "
She’s fat, loud and aggressive so they have an issue with her.
They also believe she has a huge ego and a sales sense of self.
I’m basing that off of what I’ve read.
I agree with your overall point.
Especially when it was proven TRUE.
And Haddish and Shumer specifically benefitted hugely from Monique taking the big hit by calling for the boycott.
We have seen many publicly suddenly try to rewrite history and give Mo more credit about all that mess
when they were laughing in her face back when it first happened.
That is everything I've ever heard about her too.
But she ain't the only one and it's used as an excuse for never believing her. Especially after the Oscar.
But it's crazy how we heard about Cosby hidden proclivities from way way way back and it never hurt him till Hannibal. It was just ignored.
Funny how that works.
The only reason people are tired of her is because she thinks she's worth more than what she is.
She is worth what the market demands for her! Not anyone else.
She thinks just because of past performances, she should get top billing and top rates all the time, but that's just not life.
The only reason a few people have apologized to her is because of public pressure.
She is a fat, loud, aggressive, DELUSIONAL and EXTEMELY NARCISSICTIC person that you can't talk reason with.
She should have accepted the half milly, then negotiate for more had her special been successful. To compare her offer to Amy's was ignorant

Another bridge burned by this fat unfunny bitch, dl is a comedy mainstay, this bitch couldn't kill a fly let alone a room at the store but wants to headline over dl? Lmao if she was workingba crowd where no one knew about her drama she would just be thought to be a deranged lunatic lmao this bitch needs to sit down and stfu before she ends up make my movies with Gina Carano and Ben Shapiro, anybody could have played her role in precious (not hard to seem evil throwing babies and molesting kids) she's not unique or special, just bitter and full of cholesterol.

Name a female black comedian(or any female comedian really) that the public is clamoring for their special lmao Netflix only gives a fuck about dollars and cents. Dave gets the bag but Netflix is racist? Lmfao gtfoh
Go through the thread.
No body is in the right Monique is difficult. Lee Daniels has deep issues with Black people and it comes out in his movies.
I was just saying that in this thread. We've heard about Cosby drugging women for YEARS.
If everyone has their own faults and demons it's crazy how folk choose such hard and fast sides to defend no matter what.
Without any REAL inside knowledge of these situations
That contract didn't work like that.
When was she difficult before precious?
When was the last bgol agreed with or supported a black woman who spoke up for herself??
She may have been right in the past but she wrong if she think DL should open for her. And i don't like neither of the 2.
Now if I remember correctly Steve Harvey closed the Kings of Comedy and by no stretch was he funnier than DL, Cedric or Bernie Mac. I say that to say closing the show doesn't necessarily mean anything. I would have been pissed if I went to that show and she went on an unfunny tirade like this.
I agree wholeheartedly, she’s worth what the market demands and that’s what I said when it came to her Netflix offer.
I agree, either accept the offer or move on.
She should’ve consulted with other Black female comedians or female comedians I general to see if Netflix was lowballing all of them.
But to compare herself to Amy’s offer was wrong.
I believe another issue she had with Amy’s contract negotiation is that with her the came back with a different offer.
With her they said have a nice day and that was it. They didn’t come back with any other offer and she had an issue with that.
I don’t know, I’d have to look and think.
I don’t think it’s an issue with us or them not supporting Black women.
Yeah.. that nigga hates black men...hard.. HARD AS FUCK. 90% of his black men characters are so fucking sick, its not even funny. I peep this bullshit awhile ago. why his hollywood peers give him props is beyond me.
Maybe. That's just it, we don't know. I'm not assuming she's totally guilty but I also don't assume she's completely innocent.
I will say that a lot of people don't like working with her husband who's her manager.
Working in advertising you learn that a lot of people that are "loved" turn out to be assholes. Aaron Sanchez was a HUGE asshole on set cause he was always high.
Rachel Ray is also extremely difficult to work with. Kraft hated working with her when she was working with them on Nabisco. She wouldn't agree to scripts for spots until the day of the shoot which is always problematic.
That's what I'm saying. Amy was making noise in the comedy circuit, her unfunny ass sold out MSG which is why NF gave her millions. Monique wasn't ringing bells like that in stand up. I follow a lot of comedians and podcasts, I rarely if never see her name in show lineups. She funny though
So she couldn't negotiate?
About 14 years ago I was assigned as her bodyguard for the a visit in Chicago. It was the worst assignment I ever had. She filed a complaint with my company about me because I told her she wasn't funny. She tried to belittle me and it didn't work. They ended dropping her as a client because of her actions.
