  • Mo’Nique paid $50K for PRECIOUS, was blackballed, and Whoopi Goldberg, Oprah, & Tyler Perry wanted her to do more:
    “I never complained about the $50K. I did everything I was supposed to do. It is when they started asking me to become a slave. It is when Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey started asking me to work for free."

    They paid her 50k and probably had very little cash left after taxes and agent fees. Then they want her to do a promo tour for free that could last from a few weeks to a few months with no pay is crazy. That’s lost time and money

Therefore she had every right to get compensated… and how in the world are you going to compare the lady from Wonder Woman and Monique. Monique clearly stated that she was paid 50k and the lady from Wonder Woman got paid 350k. Not to mention her doing the promo run may have been part of her contract. Do you see the contract???

      Janet has said she and her husband were having problems and her husband was unemployed while she was on Fresh Prince. Monique's "daddy" husband works for her and Monique said they borrowed money from Kevin Harr. Why are other men being totally blamed for their downfall? I believe Will gave Janet money which is why she really stopped complaining. Netflix paid Monique to put an end to the whole discussion. Everyone isn't meant to be a big star. People have to accept some of the blame for what happens in their lives.
      Janet has admitted negotiations with Fresh Prince broke down and producers stopped communicating with her which is why she wasn't on the show anymore. Monique has said she and her husband spoke with men from Lionsgate studio who offered to pay for expenses to promote Precious. She should say their names. Monique didn't work for Oprah and Tyler on Precious. Now she's saying she's been mad with Oprah over the interview with her family. White people whose names have not been outed quietly made money

    When she wants more money, she expects people to give it to her and "do what's right" based on relationships.

Well, they paid you what they were contractually obligated to pay you, so yall should be good.

    Let's get it the story straight, the movie had a budget of $10M, yes Mo was paid $50k, however, Gabby was paid $30k and she was the main character. A $10M budget goes fast when you have to pay taxes, staff, equipment, city fees, state fees, filming fees, ordinance fees, filing fees, etc. Not to mention paying high vis celebrities to be in the movie to draw attention to the film in hopes people will come see it. Mariah Carey was reportedly paid $2mil, then there's Lenny Kravitz, Paula Patton, even Jamie Foxx whose character was removed but was still paid. All of them promoted the movie and not paid to do it. Lenny Kravitz minimum to appear in anything is $750k. Imagine Paula Patton and Jamie Foxx. The known and marketable performers will always be paid more because companies bank on them to bring the crowd. Mo wasn't and still isn't that. She's now more known for her beefs than her actual skill, which somehow has helped her in getting attention.

      @@nn-xm8lz every word, doesn't change the fact that "SHE" and others keep bringing it up, and to add to the point, it's common practice for actors to promote the film wherever they go. It benefits them in the long run. Every other person in that film promoted it with no issues without being paid except her. If she wanted to be paid for it, or have them pay for it if asked to, then she should've had her manager negotiate it. He however had no experience dealing with things like these as to why she missed out on so many other opportunities prior to that film and after. Some of the blame for her lack of gigs is on her, and her husband. Not just companies and O.

    So if she's about contracts she can't complain about the money she made for Precious, You signed the contract for $50k that you didn't have to. You did your marketing of the movie. If the movie makes billions she can't come back later and say she was underpaid and is not entitled to a share of the profits. They offered to take care of her accommodations which means she wouldn't have been out of pocket. The movie game is not for her because she's not willing to do what needs to be done. She's a short term thinker not look at the big picture thinker. She should've went there where all the best directors and producers of the world definitely were promoting their movies, It's called networking. Might've gotten and offer or offers for more movies. She hasn't done anything any of us can think of since Prescious. I wonder why

The studios are there to gage reactions and if they like, they buy the movie from Lee. Once Lee gets paid , the studios push and promote to the rest of us.

    No matter how many times she tells this story the facts are the same. She made a choice not to go to Canne for a few days to promote an independent film that was picking up momentum. She decided she didn't want to promote this leg of the promotional tour. Fine. To then go to blame the producers, who came in later to support the film, because Daniels didn't have the budget to do that, is the definition of someone hard to work with. After this and the experience that Will Packer had with her on Next Christmas no wonder it's tough for her to find work in the movies or on the TV machine.

As I’ve said from the first time of her complaint Monique needs to create her own production company. Obviously the people/players in the current industry are all bought and paid for and will be of no benefit because of whom and what they serve.

      Exactly. I hate when people try to project it as she was upset about the amount she was fully aware fully knowledgeable about what she signed up for. She just didn't feel like she should have been out there promoting the movie for free, which is a separate job. Why should she promote the movie for free? And it wasn't even part of her contract and since they paid her so little what she was cool with. Why can't they just pay another $50,000 to advertise it if she agreed to $50,000 to play a whole lead role in a movie? I'm sure for $50,000 more she would have had no problem promoting it! They want us to believe that Lee Daniels Oprah Winfrey whoever didn't have $50,000 to give this woman for advertising. There are people right now sitting in regular everyday 9 to 5:00 marketing jobs making more than $50,000 a year right now, so Monique couldn't get an extra 50,000 at least for promoting the movie this is really bad math
