It is hilarious. What I'm.seeing is a a lot of black dudes who know black women as a whole are emotional (which isn't wrong)...and guess what it is used against us. It's a catastrophe. I wish Monique would of handle the situation with Oprah, Lee and Tyler differently but she didn't but I totally get it. As much as I have upheld my black brothers I'm disgusted by there messiness. I'm disgusted that they talk and gossip MORE than women. I'm disgusted Lenard don't even know what He is doing. I'm disgusted that this radio show dogs people out and calls them donkeys. The girl in this video is a slave to Lenard because if she disagrees with Lenard she will be a donkey too. And how can someone out of all people be on CNN after being on a straight up put down GOSSSIP show. And I'm loving Monique and her husband. She is still one of the Queens of comedy. I haven't forgot that and many others haven't either. Young punks in that room hiding behind microphones slashing our people with the wicked tongue. Karma is gonna attach this mess. Leonard with his sassy mouth trying to get where Monique has been and maybe if he/them didn't know EVERYTHING then they could learn something. Breakfast club needs to be the Messy club. This is messsssy
Dee T it was childish.. and you can tell she has a nasty attitude. Its all good though cause she is digging her own grave and nobody is gonna wanna do business with her.
Ana I’ll say this at first I couldn’t get where she was coming from but then I started to see her side more clearly I’ve been mistreated and hurt badly and I remember speaking out against someone powerful and they tried to close every door possible and nobody believed me until years later. I feel her pain
kim ** nah. its more wicked than that....... She sold. her soul""" to the Devil,, Illuminati .... all those end up in Hell only have themselves to blame. the poor are God's chosen people . ( Bible ) James 2:5 Listen my beloved brethren has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in #faith. and heirs to the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him. 2:6 But you have dishonored the poor man do not the rich oppress u and drag u into the courts. ** the Bible is the Truth, Jesus is the way, this world trust in Oppression, the word says do not trust in Oppression , nor vainly hope in robbery if riches increase do not set your heart on them. amen .
Netflix thought she was due $500k. If she didn't like it, the smart thing woulda been to keep shopping your special to HBO, Showtime, etc. Not whining about gender/racial bias.
Mark Bizzle Dayum right she is one of the vets in the game in our generation that has been successful besides Somore and rest of the ladies who were in Queens of comedy I guess Mo is on everyone shit list because she spoke up good for why settle when u know your worth more that’s like having low self worth and Being ok with it
She got him right on together then used his government name. One thing about Monique is shes well spoken rather you agree with her or not she very well spoken
In real time we are watching a a true couragous Queen in Monique.. I have never been soo proud. I feel that down the line when things are changed it can be owed to Her and People like her.. what is disgusting in black men and women allowing themselves to be weaponized against a Queen that is righteous in this matter.. This is embarressing . But to Monique My Queen Sister I am soo Proud of you... and THANK YOU. Thank you soo much for your Inetgrity , Honor, Dedication, COurage and fortiitude. #ISTANDUPWITHANDSUPPORTMONIQUE
You are silly. You say she is the reason for what. Please tell me when the Oscars had their show and all celebrities wore black where was she "home". When the black celebrities spoke out on racial inequality in hollywood where was she "home" but you want to give her props because now since she was not given money she felt she deserved she is a spokesperson. Fuck Monique and the boat she floated over on. She had no fight in the battle until now. She did not care about the fight until now. She is being offered what she deserves. That is why no one wants to deal with her because now she wants to rant and rave well she still does not have a deal and it is not about black people not standing together. We don't have to support dumb shit. I am a true advocate for what is right and just and since she felt no need to stand with all those when they were fighting I will not stand with her.
No, she's really not. She's saying the same nonsensical shit (that same tired Rick and Bubba line) and making no sense. She makes herself look petty and defensive. She sorta validates the "hard to work with" rumors.
I hate the way they treated Mo'Nique in this interview. I can relate to what Mo'Nique is going through. I pray that she gets her reward at the end of the battle. I can just imagine the tears this woman sheds to her husband or maybe alone because she tries to make change for the better of not only herself but for others who are being wronged in the workplace. This interview made me cry😢
Tee Money How calling him by his name is making her look petty? Let me say this as blacks we have to fight harder because our own will make us fight them and the white man.
Margaret Wilson she tries to big him up by telling a story about how she met him and how his mom and grandma raised him right then keeps condescendingly calling him by his government name. That’s passive aggressive petty bullshit.
Tee Money Okay, On my job people are called by nicknames but, If I call them by their Government name they say I’m the one with the attitude lol but, it’s their name. I wonder what csi gave Larry Fishburne to be on their show now that would say a lot because we know He’s a legend
kim yes, I remember when he used to cower and quake when he was working for Wendy Williams back in the day. She punked his ass all day, everyday. He was the pussy of the day then!
Why is she still explaining. Move on already. Mo'nique I have your back but most blacks are not going to support you. Your like me. Your Too real for most people. I've learned long time ago us blacks just don't stand together anymore. PERIOD.
I dont understand why people do not see why she got the off she got. Its business they need to be able to make their money back. Plenty of black shows get top dollars on Netflix. Hell Aertha franklin a legend but she not getting paid what Beyonce paid, And the Snatched movie Made over 60million js
Sad to say but u right and her husband her thinking and her fans that want even buy what she selling not helping her case Netflix's only putting out what the can flip and make a profit from
Wow. What is wrong with Charlamagne? He admits he didn't read all the information Mo'Nique released, but still wants to challenge her about what happened. He keeps talking about "counteroffers" when they've already produced the receipts from Netflix saying the $500,000 was a take-it-or-leave-it deal. He also keeps talking about selling out arenas as if Monique hasn't been blackballed since after she won the Oscar. Who knows how many arenas she would have been able to sell out based on the momentum of Precious had she not been blackballed and badmouthed by some of the most powerful black people in Hollywood? Neither Chris Rock nor Dave Chappelle were outright blackballed or low-balled for the better part of a decade. Charlamagne doesn't have enough information to be arguing in favor of Netflix. He also apparently doesn't understand the illogical criticism of expecting a black woman who's been blackballed for 8 years to also have sold out large arenas. I think Charlamagne wants to win the argument so much that he's not listen to what she's saying. I also think if Monique had sold out huge arenas, he'd come up with some other excuse to justify Netflix's low-ball offer. If she sold out arenas, he'd be arguing that she hasn't been in any blockbuster movies. If she was in blockbuster movies, he'd be arguing that she hasn't done enough comedy specials. The goal post would always be moving so he can have a place from which to challenge and argue against her.
whisperwatch It’s simple. She is not hot. She is not on Dave not Chris level. She is just not. Name a Monique special that was great? Not one. She was never ever known for standup. She should have took the check, points number on the board, then when the next time came around, hit them in the head.
All of that is based solely on your opinion. I think Amy Schumer's comedy is sh!t, but I can't tell Netflix what not to pay her nor will I go to bat for a billion dollar company. Dave Chapelle fell off the face of the earth for a decade, so the 'hot' argument is ridiculous, imo. I wasn't waiting on him nor have I watched his special, but I'll cuss anybody out if they say he shouldn't have gotten $20M. If you don't like Monique's comedy and you prefer Chappelle and Rock, that's fine. What you don't have to do is publicly argue against her by caping for Netflix. There is no 'next time'. Monique already accepted $50,000 for 'Precious' with that 'next time' in mind. That time never comes and she said she continued to get low offers, even before this whole Lee Daniels/Oprah/Tyler Perry thing jumped off. Netflix was supposed to be her 'next time' and look how that turned out. I'll say this too: What I'm not EVER gonna do is to talk money up out of a black woman's pocket, especially when she hasn't done anything wrong outside of asking to be paid at a rate comparable to her resume. I'm not EVER going to cape for a billion dollar company who's planned to spend $8BILLION on content. I think black people should get as much of that money as possible if Netflix is going to spend it anyway. If they can get away with paying the Oscar winning comedian (very rare) that amount of money, they don't really have to give a sh!t about anyone that's coming up behind her, and they'll use the low amount of money they paid her to argue against any other black female comedian negotiating for more money. What this boils down to is people want to tell Monique what she deserves by comparing her recent activities to the activities of people who haven't been blackballed, even though she won an Oscar and was nominated for an Emmy in 2015 for 'Bessie'. I think that's ridiculous. Any number of non-black comedians can go sit their a$ses down somewhere for years and come right back and be paid exactly what they want. So I guess we're not going to agree on this issue.
I am so disappointed in The Breakfast Club. They really have allowed this man to be reckless with his mouth, and speak on things that he clearly have not researched! And he is unable to truly understand because he has to be right. It's childish and annoying!
Charlamagne is exactly like the dark skinned brothers who cut deals with the romans in past time to undermind the Israelites, so its nothing new under the sun....Keep standing up my beautiful sister!!!!
You're a joke if you take C the god serious. He is really not that bright. Only people who lack imagination sees him in that lens. Shout out to Monique, you're a real one
and you must be one of those people who just call folks names when you get out smarted. must suck to have such a low iq and not understand basic logic. monique has never been in a movie thats made more than 100 mil.
What are you talking about? What specifically did you out smart me on, we barely had a dialogue? What does her never being in a Movie that made more than 100 mil has to do with her argument?
I thought she was crazy, but she dropped too many points to disregard. She politely destroyed CTG for making her donkey of the day....Her granny glasses and that daddy bs is still off putting though.
prettymochame last time I checked, Monique didn't need anyone defending her. Her husband a.k.a daddy has fulfilled that position. How about you move on.
Ali Best we're discussing a serious issue and you're talking about looks and her relationship. People like you and Charlamagne should move on or go watch Netflix, it's her check.
Too Much very wise and they can’t stand it and what makes it so bad is that it’s our ppl fighting her asking her why she thinks she deserves her pay no other color but our own this is why other races don’t have to come after us because we as a ppl destroy each other
Too Much “Wise” is not going public with a private negotiation and simply going next door to HBO and getting a better deal. Her taking a national radio tour and getting into cat fights with black people who can’t put her on a streaming platform is stupid. Hollywood is officially done with her after this. Black media is all she has left. She seems intent on obliterating that.
Y’all talk about she hasn’t done anything in awhile but we forget Dave Chapelle just got back from living in Africa!!! We haven’t seen this man do comedy in years! Chris Rock hasn’t done anything in years! Monique has had a few projects here and there and is the most recent of all of them.
Simplii Deedee And Dave Chapelle “crossover”, it’s not his fault that White People love the hell outta him. They dont love the hell outta Monique like that. Not even close. And thats who is issuing out the checks at Netflix. Dave is cemented his place in Whitefolks hearts and minds. Monique didnt. It aint nobody fault, its just is what it is. So in their mind, is she viewable by all these “white” subscribers? Hell no. So what can she do? Go on the road and show them dummies or sit and complain and call for a boycott. How come its been a month and change since she called for the boycott, but I havent heard a show date for her doing shows? Stop complaining to these white folks, and just go get it yourself. Monique has a very slave like mentality. We as a ppl, dont sit around and talk about it, we do it. Put your money up, do your shows, and show these idiots. But she’d rather talk about it
Stop asking her if she's sold out these arenas! Has she been given the opportunity to sell out arenas...NO! Now answer this question...WHY? Racial and gender bias!
you get the opportunity to sell out arenas by having enough fans to fill one. no one can stop you from doing an arena tour except yourself. Who do you guys think she got blackballed by? Jesus??
Promoters don't bring shows to arenas unless there's demand. It has nothing to do with "opportunity". It's all about what the market dictates. The market spoke, and it says Mo'Nique can't fill an arena. That's why she's currently touring IMPROVS in each city. She can't even fill an auditorium anymore. That ain't got shit to do with racial bias. It's about buzz. Dane Cook used to fill BASEBALL STADIUMS. Dane Cook can't fill an auditorium now because Dane Cook is washed, just like Mo'Nique is. Is that bias against a white man?
kcshipp80 OMG y'all believe Whoopi is the best, nobody cares about awards just like we don't care about Monique's Oscar. Whoopi is not even in the conversation of comedienne, can't stand that uncle Tom, have you heard of Moms Mabley...ijs
I'm with Mo' nique all day❤. I believe every word. Black woman are not getting what there worth...There's no equality in the world when it comes to black women. And Mo'nique don't accept that...#iammoniqueallday #blackwomanallday #ilovemonique #moniqueisthebest #moniqueschoulgetmorefromnetflix
stefano mendes What they’re worth to White Companies? Look at those words. Why are we complaining about black women getting paid from White Companies? Ya’ll folk got a slave mentality. Want white ppl approval. Want white ppl to see where we coming from, see how they are “doing” us wrong. They dont care. Get out and do it on your own. 2018 Slaves.
Marc Regal I agree with you on that but it is unfair that CTG and other bad rumors that ppl are spreading around about her...and I'm sure that she would like to do it her own, but she is A BLACK WOMAN...and you've to realize that a black women has even last power than any other minority groups in the world. And a influencional radio talk show like TBC given her a donkey of the day is not helping that at all. And the bottom line is that we BLACK ppl don't like helping each other...but we like to do the upside.
If ya'll really love Mo'Nique and wanna support her, do it the right way: spend $40 to see her at your local Improv. She's on tour right now. Don't ride with her on this comically flawed emotional argument about her market value.
Leonard is a liar and he clowns ppl who he thinks won't call him out on his shit. Monique sonned tf out of him with the truth and instead of owning his shit or admitting he was wrong he had to have an answer for everything even when they didn't make sense. That's why this interview isn't posted on their TH-cam channel yet
Tori Madison lmao nicki Minaj and cardi b have put in the same amount of work? Cardi doesn’t even have as many songs as nicki how does that make sense g.
Why do he keep bringing up Tiffany Haddish? What has Tiffany Haddish done to deserve the money Monique didn't get? Did she sell out Madison Square Garden or any other large arena? Tiffany Hadish was funny in the movie Girl's Trip but her standup ain't all that and she damn shole ain't as funny as Monique in or out of a movie
Why does Charlamagne keep challenging her but admits she's a legend. I used this example on another platform; Do you think Netflix would treat Eddie Murphy the same just because he hadn't sold out an arena in a while, NO because he's a legend! So regardless of how the industry has blackballed her or don't like her attitude, if we and Netflix is going to call her a legend she should be paid as such. and stop using Tiffany Haddish as an example Charlamagne, she is popping now, yes, but she is not as funny as Monique stand up wise. ijs.
Monique used Tiffany Haddish as an example. Eddie Murphy is a legend, and the mere fact that he hasn't done standup in 30 years would garner enough buzz to set off a bidding war. He'd get Chris Rock money because HE'S a legend AND because people would be anticipating it. Meanwhile, MoNique is currently touring Improvs (seating capacity 300) nationwide. Apples and oranges....
Bonita Brigante Eddie Murphy has done way more than Monique. Not in the same stratesphere. Monique is not on Dave Chapelle, Chris Rock or Tucker’s level. Its nobody’s fault. She just isnt. Them folk “crossedover”. No denying that. She crossedover once, Precious. None of her “comedy” ever crossedover. Its as simple as that. And thats why Netflix wanted to give her what they gave her. Hollywood is who they are. Either you have the juice or yiu dont. And she doesnt have it. Eddie is a legend on a higher level, as well as Chapelle and Rock and Tucker for that matter. Just is what it is.
Marc Regal also: Netflix negotiates everything based on data. They have 2-3 old Monique specials on right now. They surely look at who is viewing those, how often, when they pressed rewind, stopped playing, how long they watched for, etc. They used that data and made what they deemed a fair offer. MoNique coulda just said no and gone to HBO. She done merked her whole career because NOBODY is gonna wanna work with her after this.
Let's get this clear. I personally don't think Monique is a "legend" keeping it 100, I personally don't think Dave Chapelle or Chris Rock are "legends" either. ijs. People use that word too loosely. My point was merely if Charlamagne and Netflix are going to label her as such, and she thinks that about herself then she should be paid as such, and I understood her point. I used Eddie Murphy as an example because Charlamagne kept challenging her about not being popping right in this moment, belittling her and dismissing her truth.. HER TRUTH! I was not comparing her to Eddie talent wise. I was however comparing her to Tiffany Haddish!!
She is saying to me that ok if you don't want to pay me 13 million because I'm not trending right now but your not even going to offer 1 or 2 or 3 million to Monique she is a Legend.
I think it's justified... Not only does she get donkey of the day, she gets donkey of the year because she's going on with this gender and racial bias trying to play the victim when she's bending the truth and dismissing facts... She tried to change what Charlemagne said on 3 or 4 different occasions and he caught her... She's being black balled and will continue to get that treatment because of how she is dragging this situation and. She will be lucky if she gets any offer from anywhere. I love my black women but this women and her husband (who honestly shouldn't even be her manager) are digging their own grave.
Melvin Banks yep. He nailed her about using Snatched instead of Trainwreck to justify her getting more. She stuttered and went back to insulting his mother.
How can anyone not stand with Mo'Nique? I mean, really? Especially, our black community. It hurts when your own shame you; your own kind will hurt you more than the opposer. And at times the opposer is more accepting than your own. Hurtful! She is prominent in comedy and acting. 500k would be offered to Tiffany Haddish, not Mo'Nique. In my opinion. Mo have put in WORK! How can anyone fix there mouth agreeing with that amount?Mo'Nique is legendary. I'm 27 years old and I've seen her rose from the concrete to the endless heavens, and so have everyone else. But, however, when there's a black cult that has power like God, there will be a hard and long struggle to the end of the resolution. When you have OPRAH, LEE DANIELS, and TYLER PERRY against you...You will win Mo, I know you will!
Marc Regal Mo'Nique has never exemplified any behavior, nor has never stated or commented on anything that shone negativity on the black community. In her stand-ups, Mo'Nique has always supported and uprooted our black men and women. Mo'Nique's audience is the black community; what significant facts upholds your opinions?
Anthony Davis She a front runner because we dont hear about her issues unless she feel she is wronged by ppl. she is always playing the victim. Always. I dont disagree with her on certain things, but she is ALL about herself, to me. She tries to come across and nice and loving and trying to play like the Angel, nah, you are not an angel. Stop with the act. Stop acting like you havent been bashing Oprah, those two director dudes. Same thing she did with Empire. Why complain about not getting the Cookie role. Shows change actors all the time for different roles bc they feel like someone is better. She complains complains and complains. Her complaining has shadowed her output of work. She is one who wants everyone to feel sorry for her while still tearing other black ppl down. Her husband and her are both dillusional
Marc Regal Mo'Nique has always had a private life until her open relationship podcast with her husband. A celebrity needs a private life and everything shouldn't be to the public. She had brought up more issues than those pertaining to herself. She had a late night talk show on BET where she addressed various black topics. How many times have she played victim? I don't know Mo'Nique personally, maybe you do I'm not sure, but from the time I've know her work, seen her interviews, and watched her host the BET Awards, she has always seem like a nice woman. I've seen her stand-ups and know she's a "real" woman from Baltimore...Oprah?! You would blast and/or do more if someone brings your family on a tv show which primarily relates to horrific childhood misbehavior...I can't believe our people...
Tori Madison Facts....Monique published her video on Thursday the 22nd..& the breakfast club didn’t come out with there’s until Friday the 23rd..that’s why I asked this question
Donkey of the day was appropriate, because when she did the video asking people to boycott Netflix due to gender and racial bias then went on to mention two black men and a woman with multi million dollar deals from Netflix, it didn’t make any sense. N lets be honest most of y’all are not watching a Monique special. She’s a great actress, I won’t take anything from her.
Thank you. People are missing the point. You cannot call something racist and gender and then site both. Plus she did not support the movement but now she wants everyone to support her. I can't remember any comedy except when she used to call all skinny girls bitches. Nothing since then. I think that turned a lot of people off but then she lot weight and dropped that line.
She is speaking up for herself.. nobody walks in her shoes... she knows her worth... if Monique feels her worth is more then what she was offered why can’t she say so. Everybody else has something to say but you to would not except anything if you felt this way also. We only know what we here on social media we on the outside looking in. I am proud of her if you don’t stand for anything you will fall for everything
It got creepy when she said he’s raising her.. that’s totally left field.. you wanna call your man daddy.. cool beans.. I’ve done it, but your parents raise you.. not your husband
It's creepy, but worse is having your husband represent you when she doesn't understand basic facts and timelines (keeps bringing up Snatched, as if Trainwreck wasn't the movie Schumer used to negotiate her Netflix deal).
This is sooooo exhausting. Fact of the matter is., we birthed this ENTIRE planet and are the most underappreciated humans in the world. We have inherited the keys to the kingdom. Thank God. We will be and are alright.
She spoke essentially the same thing Chappelle did just recently...years ago...and we rallied with him but not her...notice how she said she has things on Netflix that has been on there’s for years but she never made a deal with them.
celeste kirksey soooo, Tiffani Haddish is a slave? Cause she’s seems to be getting paid her worth. So is Viola Davis. So is Ocatavia Spencer. Are they slaves too.
If you are not selling out stadiums and arenas you are not going to get paid like those who do. Why is that a mystery? Why is that up for debate? Why does race and gender matter?
"I'm gon need you to know the history of us before you make a donkey of us".... nicely said. This interview shed some light on some false news I heard about Mo'Nique situation too. New respect for Mo'Nique. bklyn
I am so glad you address that shit because when I heard the comment, I thought the man was crazy!!! I could not believe Charlemagne would fix his mouth to make such a disrespectful and disloyal comment... What side is he on? TY's? He'll learn. Enough said!
Charlemagne the " Dog" is a makeshift, pseudo, superficial imitation of the original " shock jock radio personality, Howard Stern. He epitomizes his own rhetoric as if his views are beyond reproach, detracts attention from the issues to avoid critique, and disguises his malice through bogus humor and complicit statements to justify himself. Monique is the complete opposite... Let's stand for those who now deserve the due process on the same path that was paved by those who became our path founders for success in the entertainment industry.
8:31 mark is the telling moment in this video. Charlemange informs them that Schumer got that deal off Trainwreck. Sidney (with his dumb ass) rebutts him by saying "netflix made that offer because she had a big movie coming out (Snatched, the one that tanked). Charlemagne says "coming out", which is correct, and completely obliterates Mo'Nique's argument that she shoulda gotten more because the ensemble comedy she starred in was more profitable that Schumer's SECOND movie that tanked. Confronted with that obvious flaw in her certain argument, Mo'Nique changes the topic to Charlemagne's mother and grandmother and why it was wrong that she was donkey of the day. Folks, if you can't see Mo'Nique is playing you by making a basic argument about market value/negotiations into an emotional argument about race/gender then you WANT to be played.
This woman did sj improv for 2 days this hole in the wall club holds 100 people she probably made about 4k for the whole weekend , if she believes she worth millions why not sell out one of the many arenas we have here in the bay🤔
Thats what they said but she feels she should not have to. Comedy is current and she is not. Chris Rock just left London. Hell Gary Owens booked a club here in London and sold it out for two shows last year. She could do the same but I guess she is too big for that.
Those aren't Netflix specials, those are shows Netflix bought the rights to that Mo"Nique filmed years ago. But they likely ARE using the viewing data for those to formulate their offer to her.
If she and her "fans" think she worth 20 million, why doesn't she put her OWN money into it or why doesn't her "fans" do a kick stater or go fund me... Prove people wrong!!!! Y'all can say y'all on board with Monique and she's standing up for inequality but nobody on here is boycotting Netflix. BOTTOM LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #LETSARGUE
Drek Mitch you know they take a percentage of that money right? Even if she did go that route she would have to hope that by the time she reached her goal for production, that she would still receive the same quote. She would make her money back, yes but that route will take years she would have to keep changing and adding jokes to stand up to keep up current events. It usually takes about 6 months to get a good stand up perfected before a tour can start
Mea Morena I knew they took a percent, didn't know how much. Thank you for enlighten me on all the work it takes and maybe i was reaching when i said her fans should raise 20m, but she's the most "decorated" comedian alive, according to her; she's a legend, she's seasoned, so maybe she should match whatever her "fans" put in... Or is this still not the route to take, or maybe I really don't understand how it works. Basically what I'm saying is PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS!!
prettymochame so I'm and everyone else are uncle Toms because we will not boycott Netflix because someone is throwing a fit? I'm sure Netflix will not miss your subscription, I mean they are a BILLION DOLLAR company...as a matter of fact take your money and start a gofundme for Monique
Dang Charlamagne made her donkey of the day but she made him look like a ASS for the day with her words articualy and intelligently like a strong black woman she is👍🏾❤️
From what I see when I see them together or in this case, him on the phone meaning even if not physically, his presence is still felt.....the way she pays attention and looks with sincerity when he speaks is pretty dope...and looks at others who are listening with the same sincerity to make sure they are actually listening as well...the way he manages and navigates her without controlling her is equally dope. Reciprocity.
I can't mess with the Breakfast Club anymore. Can't do it! Mo'Nique calling out Leonard in front of his Mother and his Grandmother! lmmfao Thanksgiving is going to be Awkward as f**k for him!
The problem is "Daddy". She needs to woman up and fire her husband. He isn't good at his job, and you're only as good as your representation. He obviously isn't willing to fight for her in negotiations, and gives her misinformation. Whether it's to protect her feelings, or deflect from his ineptitude, it falls on him for stirring her up.
There's a huge disconnect with women explaining to men of a certain consciousness what inequity and sexism is. Mo'Nique wasn't going to convince them, nor was she going to convince an audience who isn't familiar with doing business on this level. It's convenient for Lenard to refuse to concede to her point of view because at his core he's a pretty messy person and is hoping to create radio/internet gold like that the Birdman confrontation. We have so many opportunities to do better and support each other to raise up our community, but or programming is preventing this from happening.
And she could not concede to his where it relates to what has she done lately "comedy" wise to suggest she should receive that type of money. Its business and thats all besides in all her running around correcting everyone she just proves everyone right about her attitude and disposition and no one wants to deal with that.
I look at these comments and see that my opinion is way different then others. Charlamgna challenge monique instead of kissing her ass. And he isnt my favorite. Mo can't handle an opinion that's different then hers. I believe there is a race issue in this world...but in this case I feel that monique not getting certain jobs because she isn't funny.
Monique needs too keep up the good fight that all us sisters face daily, at the end of the day as a community we should be supported each other like other s do and build our own up. Ctha god if thiz was your plight you would say the same thing as monique. People only suppprt what is relevant too them.... They say they love you but secrectly dispise you #blackmendobetter
this is fab go Mo'Nique and hubby: they did this to Lil Kim a couple of years ago: and she told breakfast club 'show some respect and do your homework too ' :)
Monique isn't nearly as crazy as I once thought. She owned this interview. Hats off to her.
THE WAY SHE DRAGGED HIM SO POLITE.
Cashsus Clay I kno wasn't she though Polite and articulate all while dragging him.. LOL 😅😅🤣🤣😂
Cashsus Clay that was not a drag AT all.
She dragged him humbly😅
Charlamagne never misses a chance to disrespect a Black woman. He is just like his mentor Wendy Williams.
R Red You definitely right about that!!!!!!!!!! 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
It's so funny how different they speak when someone is actually in the room with them
Hakim Nelson-Wilder RIGHT
It is hilarious. What I'm.seeing is a a lot of black dudes who know black women as a whole are emotional (which isn't wrong)...and guess what it is used against us. It's a catastrophe.
I wish Monique would of handle the situation with Oprah, Lee and Tyler differently but she didn't but I totally get it. As much as I have upheld my black brothers I'm disgusted by there messiness. I'm disgusted that they talk and gossip MORE than women. I'm disgusted Lenard don't even know what He is doing. I'm disgusted that this radio show dogs people out and calls them donkeys. The girl in this video is a slave to Lenard because if she disagrees with Lenard she will be a donkey too. And how can someone out of all people be on CNN after being on a straight up put down GOSSSIP show.
And I'm loving Monique and her husband. She is still one of the Queens of comedy. I haven't forgot that and many others haven't either. Young punks in that room hiding behind microphones slashing our people with the wicked tongue. Karma is gonna attach this mess.
Leonard with his sassy mouth trying to get where Monique has been and maybe if he/them didn't know EVERYTHING then they could learn something. Breakfast club needs to be the Messy club. This is messsssy
I love how she made them all feel like kids 😂
Dee T nah she just made herself look like one.
Silent the f out of them. Shut up when momma speaks. Lol
Dee T it was childish.. and you can tell she has a nasty attitude. Its all good though cause she is digging her own grave and nobody is gonna wanna do business with her.
Ana I’ll say this at first I couldn’t get where she was coming from but then I started to see her side more clearly I’ve been mistreated and hurt badly and I remember speaking out against someone powerful and they tried to close every door possible and nobody believed me until years later. I feel her pain
@@bria4561She seems to be doing ok five years later
He is rude, he doesnt listen and he is full of it.
kim he's bias af
Agreed.
okay, stan. Delete your Netflix account so the stream doesn't crash. Free up that space, queen hotep
kim ** nah. its more wicked than that....... She sold. her soul""" to the Devil,, Illuminati .... all those end up in Hell only have themselves to blame. the poor are God's chosen people . ( Bible ) James 2:5 Listen my beloved brethren has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in #faith. and heirs to the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him. 2:6 But you have dishonored the poor man do not the rich oppress u and drag u into the courts. ** the Bible is the Truth, Jesus is the way, this world trust in Oppression, the word says do not trust in Oppression , nor vainly hope in robbery if riches increase do not set your heart on them. amen .
Team Monique, don't let anyone tell you how to stand up for yourself and others. Charlemagne is of no consequence.
Charlemagne is a joke.
TrinaGettinTight Aight Fact!!
The Don Aye Aye Ron no, she's not a donkey. You might be tho.
if im a donkey im only here to support my donkey ass friends aka MO MO. aka Monique, aka boycott Monique.
TrinaGettinTight Aight he get paid to be a ass
It’s time to give this woman what’s due to her point blank kudos Mo ❤️❤️❤️
Netflix thought she was due $500k. If she didn't like it, the smart thing woulda been to keep shopping your special to HBO, Showtime, etc. Not whining about gender/racial bias.
danielle carter so y’all just gon make Netflix pay this woman?
danielle carter : And just what is she owed? No one makes her take the offers she gets for her shows.
Mark Bizzle Dayum right she is one of the vets in the game in our generation that has been successful besides Somore and rest of the ladies who were in Queens of comedy I guess Mo is on everyone shit list because she spoke up good for why settle when u know your worth more that’s like having low self worth and Being ok with it
cynthia Ingraham a lot because remember we watch her on tv and movies and shows she don’t watch u or I honey so like I said render to Ceaser
She got him right on together then used his government name. One thing about Monique is shes well spoken rather you agree with her or not she very well spoken
In real time we are watching a a true couragous Queen in Monique.. I have never been soo proud. I feel that down the line when things are changed it can be owed to Her and People like her.. what is disgusting in black men and women allowing themselves to be weaponized against a Queen that is righteous in this matter.. This is embarressing . But to Monique My Queen Sister I am soo Proud of you... and THANK YOU. Thank you soo much for your Inetgrity , Honor, Dedication, COurage and fortiitude. #ISTANDUPWITHANDSUPPORTMONIQUE
You are silly. You say she is the reason for what. Please tell me when the Oscars had their show and all celebrities wore black where was she "home". When the black celebrities spoke out on racial inequality in hollywood where was she "home" but you want to give her props because now since she was not given money she felt she deserved she is a spokesperson. Fuck Monique and the boat she floated over on. She had no fight in the battle until now. She did not care about the fight until now. She is being offered what she deserves. That is why no one wants to deal with her because now she wants to rant and rave well she still does not have a deal and it is not about black people not standing together. We don't have to support dumb shit. I am a true advocate for what is right and just and since she felt no need to stand with all those when they were fighting I will not stand with her.
You are exactly what I am talking about ..
Mo'Nique is checking the s*** out of them
Claudia Pierre yaaas!
#facts
No, she's really not. She's saying the same nonsensical shit (that same tired Rick and Bubba line) and making no sense. She makes herself look petty and defensive. She sorta validates the "hard to work with" rumors.
Exactly Tee Money
Claudia Pierre okayyy
Rocking with Monique for calling out white supremacy while the regular everyday back is willing to not stand up for themselves
I hate the way they treated Mo'Nique in this interview. I can relate to what Mo'Nique is going through. I pray that she gets her reward at the end of the battle. I can just imagine the tears this woman sheds to her husband or maybe alone because she tries to make change for the better of not only herself but for others who are being wronged in the workplace. This interview made me cry😢
It’s hilarious that she kept calling him Lenard! That’s right bring him back down to 🌏!
Nah, it just made her look small and petty.
Yup pretty much
Tee Money How calling him by his name is making her look petty? Let me say this as blacks we have to fight harder because our own will make us fight them and the white man.
Margaret Wilson she tries to big him
up by telling a story about how she met him and how his mom and grandma raised him right then keeps condescendingly calling him by his government name. That’s passive aggressive petty bullshit.
Tee Money Okay, On my job people are called by nicknames but, If I call them by their Government name they say I’m the one with the attitude lol but, it’s their name.
I wonder what csi gave Larry Fishburne to be on their show now that would say a lot because we know He’s a legend
I was DYING everytime she gave Charlamagne the stone cold Steve Austin stare or started lookin around the studio lmfao!!!!
PrittyBrownie lookin like she wanted kick his tail...lol
Hilarious indeed
Na its everytime the glasses came off 😂😂😂😂
Charlemagne been on some B.S.
kim Yup
He's an agent the whole show don't speak for black people
kim yes, I remember when he used to cower and quake when he was working for Wendy Williams back in the day. She punked his ass all day, everyday. He was the pussy of the day then!
Why is she still explaining. Move on already. Mo'nique I have your back but most blacks are not going to support you. Your like me. Your Too real for most people. I've learned long time ago us blacks just don't stand together anymore. PERIOD.
sami sadler I agree that's why black people will never have any real power.
Get a real cause and folks will stand with you. She can't get her perceived value so the folks have to boycott? Get better management
I hate to admit it, but you are right! Very disheartening
I dont understand why people do not see why she got the off she got. Its business they need to be able to make their money back. Plenty of black shows get top dollars on Netflix. Hell Aertha franklin a legend but she not getting paid what Beyonce paid, And the Snatched movie Made over 60million js
Sad to say but u right and her husband her thinking and her fans that want even buy what she selling not helping her case Netflix's only putting out what the can flip and make a profit from
Wow. What is wrong with Charlamagne? He admits he didn't read all the information Mo'Nique released, but still wants to challenge her about what happened. He keeps talking about "counteroffers" when they've already produced the receipts from Netflix saying the $500,000 was a take-it-or-leave-it deal.
He also keeps talking about selling out arenas as if Monique hasn't been blackballed since after she won the Oscar. Who knows how many arenas she would have been able to sell out based on the momentum of Precious had she not been blackballed and badmouthed by some of the most powerful black people in Hollywood? Neither Chris Rock nor Dave Chappelle were outright blackballed or low-balled for the better part of a decade.
Charlamagne doesn't have enough information to be arguing in favor of Netflix. He also apparently doesn't understand the illogical criticism of expecting a black woman who's been blackballed for 8 years to also have sold out large arenas.
I think Charlamagne wants to win the argument so much that he's not listen to what she's saying. I also think if Monique had sold out huge arenas, he'd come up with some other excuse to justify Netflix's low-ball offer. If she sold out arenas, he'd be arguing that she hasn't been in any blockbuster movies. If she was in blockbuster movies, he'd be arguing that she hasn't done enough comedy specials. The goal post would always be moving so he can have a place from which to challenge and argue against her.
whisperwatch my sentiment exactly!
You said that frfr!
Listening to respond n not to comprehend 😞
whisperwatch It’s simple. She is not hot. She is not on Dave not Chris level. She is just not. Name a Monique special that was great? Not one. She was never ever known for standup. She should have took the check, points number on the board, then when the next time came around, hit them in the head.
All of that is based solely on your opinion. I think Amy Schumer's comedy is sh!t, but I can't tell Netflix what not to pay her nor will I go to bat for a billion dollar company. Dave Chapelle fell off the face of the earth for a decade, so the 'hot' argument is ridiculous, imo. I wasn't waiting on him nor have I watched his special, but I'll cuss anybody out if they say he shouldn't have gotten $20M. If you don't like Monique's comedy and you prefer Chappelle and Rock, that's fine. What you don't have to do is publicly argue against her by caping for Netflix.
There is no 'next time'. Monique already accepted $50,000 for 'Precious' with that 'next time' in mind. That time never comes and she said she continued to get low offers, even before this whole Lee Daniels/Oprah/Tyler Perry thing jumped off. Netflix was supposed to be her 'next time' and look how that turned out. I'll say this too: What I'm not EVER gonna do is to talk money up out of a black woman's pocket, especially when she hasn't done anything wrong outside of asking to be paid at a rate comparable to her resume. I'm not EVER going to cape for a billion dollar company who's planned to spend $8BILLION on content. I think black people should get as much of that money as possible if Netflix is going to spend it anyway.
If they can get away with paying the Oscar winning comedian (very rare) that amount of money, they don't really have to give a sh!t about anyone that's coming up behind her, and they'll use the low amount of money they paid her to argue against any other black female comedian negotiating for more money.
What this boils down to is people want to tell Monique what she deserves by comparing her recent activities to the activities of people who haven't been blackballed, even though she won an Oscar and was nominated for an Emmy in 2015 for 'Bessie'. I think that's ridiculous. Any number of non-black comedians can go sit their a$ses down somewhere for years and come right back and be paid exactly what they want. So I guess we're not going to agree on this issue.
I am so disappointed in The Breakfast Club. They really have allowed this man to be reckless with his mouth, and speak on things that he clearly have not researched! And he is unable to truly understand because he has to be right. It's childish and annoying!
Angela Norfleet like monique said he trying to the the racial guru for everybody....Lenard is a donkey.
It’s sad that a black woman got go through this just to get to support
Very very sad. It honestly makes me sad, black people are too far gone and it makes me wonder as a black women will I ever be respected by anyone
Nah Monique funny as hell she is the funniest one out of all of them as far as the females even on Queens of Comedy she had all of them beat
Yet failed to build bridges so she could demand millions with her clout. How many arenas has she sold out in the last 10 years?
Monique funny no doubt. BUT Wanda Sykes waaaaaaaaaaay funnier
Charlamagne is exactly like the dark skinned brothers who cut deals with the romans in past time to undermind the Israelites, so its nothing new under the sun....Keep standing up my beautiful sister!!!!
You're a joke if you take C the god serious. He is really not that bright. Only people who lack imagination sees him in that lens. Shout out to Monique, you're a real one
"lack imagination" lmao, yeah cause thats the only place Monique is gonna sell out arenas
You must be one of the simps who thinks this guy is intelligent. You also must be a high school dropout.
and you must be one of those people who just call folks names when you get out smarted. must suck to have such a low iq and not understand basic logic. monique has never been in a movie thats made more than 100 mil.
What are you talking about? What specifically did you out smart me on, we barely had a dialogue? What does her never being in a Movie that made more than 100 mil has to do with her argument?
Mugabe because everyone she’s comparing herself to does big box office numbers. She doesn’t. That’s where the $100 mill comment comes from.
Monique is A legend ,who paved the way for All women comedians ! Respectfully
Fatima West who she paved the way for?
Fatima West No she didnt. Stop that foolishness
She was not the first many came before her. Please do not disregard those that made the way for her
paved the way for who?
I thought she was crazy, but she dropped too many points to disregard. She politely destroyed CTG for making her donkey of the day....Her granny glasses and that daddy bs is still off putting though.
Ali Best you're not her husband so move on
prettymochame last time I checked, Monique didn't need anyone defending her. Her husband a.k.a daddy has fulfilled that position. How about you move on.
Ali Best we're discussing a serious issue and you're talking about looks and her relationship. People like you and Charlamagne should move on or go watch Netflix, it's her check.
prettymochame just T ....YES!!!
Ali Best 😀
Though they didn't walk away in agreement,
I respect that fact that they were able to commune with one another.
Today, I became a Monique fan!
I Can't Hate .....Monique is VERY WISE 💯
Too Much exactly what is Monique wise about please inform us all, what is this wisdom that she holds it and what is it referring to curious.
Too Much Girl says who? Because she got gray hair and reading glasses..stop! She's full of shit.
Jax lol
Too Much very wise and they can’t stand it and what makes it so bad is that it’s our ppl fighting her asking her why she thinks she deserves her pay no other color but our own this is why other races don’t have to come after us because we as a ppl destroy each other
Too Much “Wise” is not going public with a private negotiation and simply going next door to HBO and getting a better deal.
Her taking a national radio tour and getting into cat fights with black people who can’t put her on a streaming platform is stupid. Hollywood is officially done with her after this. Black media is all she has left. She seems intent on obliterating that.
This interview is a mess...Charlemagne is on some serious BS
No he is telling the hard to hear truth
+hand pump ctg be lookin stupid out here...Monique face to face...ctg loss
As always. Idk people at like he some sort of reputable journalist. FOH. He a trend following, band wagon, house nigga
Diamond storm his not on bull shit his on people shit!!
Mo' and Daddy be doing the most. Mo' was checking them azz tho.
Patricia Thomas They don't do the most. They be speaking the most facts! 💪💪
patricio come on now miss monique was keeping it real come on now bruh
Mo’Nique was talking her shit !! Yessssss I love her & I love what she stands for ♥️ CTG was just talking🙄 and running numbers
The reading and comprehension from Ms Mo to Lennard was too real...she kept it so calm though. Love it 😏
Y’all talk about she hasn’t done anything in awhile but we forget Dave Chapelle just got back from living in Africa!!! We haven’t seen this man do comedy in years! Chris Rock hasn’t done anything in years! Monique has had a few projects here and there and is the most recent of all of them.
The did wold wide tours that sold aout in arenas. Something she has not done. Sold out comedy clubs but not arenas.
Simplii Deedee And Dave Chapelle “crossover”, it’s not his fault that White People love the hell outta him. They dont love the hell outta Monique like that. Not even close. And thats who is issuing out the checks at Netflix. Dave is cemented his place in Whitefolks hearts and minds. Monique didnt. It aint nobody fault, its just is what it is. So in their mind, is she viewable by all these “white” subscribers? Hell no. So what can she do? Go on the road and show them dummies or sit and complain and call for a boycott. How come its been a month and change since she called for the boycott, but I havent heard a show date for her doing shows? Stop complaining to these white folks, and just go get it yourself. Monique has a very slave like mentality. We as a ppl, dont sit around and talk about it, we do it. Put your money up, do your shows, and show these idiots. But she’d rather talk about it
Simplii Deedee I AGREE
Chris Rock just completed a world tour and most recently toured in the UK.
but they went out on top
Stop asking her if she's sold out these arenas! Has she been given the opportunity to sell out arenas...NO! Now answer this question...WHY? Racial and gender bias!
you get the opportunity to sell out arenas by having enough fans to fill one. no one can stop you from doing an arena tour except yourself. Who do you guys think she got blackballed by? Jesus??
You're stupid and don't understand how arena gigs work
Promoters don't bring shows to arenas unless there's demand.
It has nothing to do with "opportunity". It's all about what the market dictates.
The market spoke, and it says Mo'Nique can't fill an arena. That's why she's currently touring IMPROVS in each city. She can't even fill an auditorium anymore.
That ain't got shit to do with racial bias. It's about buzz.
Dane Cook used to fill BASEBALL STADIUMS. Dane Cook can't fill an auditorium now because Dane Cook is washed, just like Mo'Nique is.
Is that bias against a white man?
the reason she has not been givin the opertunity is because she cant sell out arenas
+Raythell Jordan she can sell our arenas, she just don't kids ass or be phony like Lenard
I thought Whoppi was the most decorated comedian alive? She's only one in 12 people who has an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar,Tony Awards)
kcshipp80 #facts
kcshipp80 OMG y'all believe Whoopi is the best, nobody cares about awards just like we don't care about Monique's Oscar. Whoopi is not even in the conversation of comedienne, can't stand that uncle Tom, have you heard of Moms Mabley...ijs
js.. an whoopi basi told her its business move on
Facts don’t matter.
Whoppi doesn’t brand herself as a comedian. None of her movies were even comedy lol she doesn’t do stand up, I mean I can go on..
Tell em Monique
I'm with Mo' nique all day❤. I believe every word. Black woman are not getting what there worth...There's no equality in the world when it comes to black women. And Mo'nique don't accept that...#iammoniqueallday #blackwomanallday #ilovemonique #moniqueisthebest #moniqueschoulgetmorefromnetflix
stefano mendes What they’re worth to White Companies? Look at those words. Why are we complaining about black women getting paid from White Companies? Ya’ll folk got a slave mentality. Want white ppl approval. Want white ppl to see where we coming from, see how they are “doing” us wrong. They dont care. Get out and do it on your own. 2018 Slaves.
Marc Regal I agree with you on that but it is unfair that CTG and other bad rumors that ppl are spreading around about her...and I'm sure that she would like to do it her own, but she is A BLACK WOMAN...and you've to realize that a black women has even last power than any other minority groups in the world. And a influencional radio talk show like TBC given her a donkey of the day is not helping that at all. And the bottom line is that we BLACK ppl don't like helping each other...but we like to do the upside.
I love u Monique 💜💙💙❤️
If ya'll really love Mo'Nique and wanna support her, do it the right way: spend $40 to see her at your local Improv. She's on tour right now.
Don't ride with her on this comically flawed emotional argument about her market value.
Tee Money I do !!!
2024 Shoutout to Monique "Mo Mo "❤❤❤❤❤ Keep talking yo shit and Keep yo feet on their necks 🧣
Leonard is a liar and he clowns ppl who he thinks won't call him out on his shit. Monique sonned tf out of him with the truth and instead of owning his shit or admitting he was wrong he had to have an answer for everything even when they didn't make sense. That's why this interview isn't posted on their TH-cam channel yet
Mo wasn't the only person on almost Christmas tho.... Lol it was Hella people on that
darronrobinson187 and Amy wasn't the only person in her movie... what's your point
Amy not claiming she made that movie. Shit I didn't even see Amy movie because I don't think she funny either. Mo had big timers in that movie
Jack Singleton but Amy was the main character. Almost Christmas had more than 6 popular actors/actress.
Monique keeps talking like shes never had a flop lmao
Personally, her character made the movie watchable to me. She was hilarious.
Charlamagnes whole argument is like saying cardi b should get payed more for a tour over nicki Mikaj because she did more last year
No they actually put in the same amount of work. LOL
Tori Madison lmao nicki Minaj and cardi b have put in the same amount of work? Cardi doesn’t even have as many songs as nicki how does that make sense g.
Why do he keep bringing up Tiffany Haddish? What has Tiffany Haddish done to deserve the money Monique didn't get? Did she sell out Madison Square Garden or any other large arena? Tiffany Hadish was funny in the movie Girl's Trip but her standup ain't all that and she damn shole ain't as funny as Monique in or out of a movie
Mari McRae her standup was DRY‼️‼️‼️‼️
hey why isnt this interview on their official page?
thats your opinion. The fact is Tiffany is hot right now. Heat always beats talent in this industry.
She really wasn’t even funny in Girls Trip. She was just vulgar
Yall keep forgetting that Netflix doesnt care who is funnier or not. They care about who has the most fans
Why does Charlamagne keep challenging her but admits she's a legend. I used this example on another platform; Do you think Netflix would treat Eddie Murphy the same just because he hadn't sold out an arena in a while, NO because he's a legend! So regardless of how the industry has blackballed her or don't like her attitude, if we and Netflix is going to call her a legend she should be paid as such. and stop using Tiffany Haddish as an example Charlamagne, she is popping now, yes, but she is not as funny as Monique stand up wise. ijs.
Monique used Tiffany Haddish as an example.
Eddie Murphy is a legend, and the mere fact that he hasn't done standup in 30 years would garner enough buzz to set off a bidding war. He'd get Chris Rock money because HE'S a legend AND because people would be anticipating it.
Meanwhile, MoNique is currently touring Improvs (seating capacity 300) nationwide.
Apples and oranges....
Bonita Brigante Eddie Murphy has done way more than Monique. Not in the same stratesphere. Monique is not on Dave Chapelle, Chris Rock or Tucker’s level. Its nobody’s fault. She just isnt. Them folk “crossedover”. No denying that. She crossedover once, Precious. None of her “comedy” ever crossedover. Its as simple as that. And thats why Netflix wanted to give her what they gave her. Hollywood is who they are. Either you have the juice or yiu dont. And she doesnt have it. Eddie is a legend on a higher level, as well as Chapelle and Rock and Tucker for that matter. Just is what it is.
Marc Regal also: Netflix negotiates everything based on data. They have 2-3 old Monique specials on right now. They surely look at who is viewing those, how often, when they pressed rewind, stopped playing, how long they watched for, etc.
They used that data and made what they deemed a fair offer. MoNique coulda just said no and gone to HBO.
She done merked her whole career because NOBODY is gonna wanna work with her after this.
Let's get this clear. I personally don't think Monique is a "legend" keeping it 100, I personally don't think Dave Chapelle or Chris Rock are "legends" either. ijs. People use that word too loosely. My point was merely if Charlamagne and Netflix are going to label her as such, and she thinks that about herself then she should be paid as such, and I understood her point. I used Eddie Murphy as an example because Charlamagne kept challenging her about not being popping right in this moment, belittling her and dismissing her truth.. HER TRUTH! I was not comparing her to Eddie talent wise. I was however comparing her to Tiffany Haddish!!
Tee Money stopcommenting in everyone's comment you psycho!! Damn what did Monique do to you!!
LeNard has been exposed........he acting real catty on this.......man gotta REACH for everything lol.........
Monique keep fighting for what's right!
She is saying to me that ok if you don't want to pay me 13 million because I'm not trending right now but your not even going to offer 1 or 2 or 3 million to Monique she is a Legend.
Y’all are nuts if y’all don’t understand how her
elijha grey 💯
“How Her?” 🥴🥴🙃
Donkey of day was too far!! He did violate and should be called out
FACTZ
I think it's justified... Not only does she get donkey of the day, she gets donkey of the year because she's going on with this gender and racial bias trying to play the victim when she's bending the truth and dismissing facts... She tried to change what Charlemagne said on 3 or 4 different occasions and he caught her... She's being black balled and will continue to get that treatment because of how she is dragging this situation and. She will be lucky if she gets any offer from anywhere. I love my black women but this women and her husband (who honestly shouldn't even be her manager) are digging their own grave.
Melvin Banks yep. He nailed her about using Snatched instead of Trainwreck to justify her getting more. She stuttered and went back to insulting his mother.
Man they got the Big Sis OG Monique fkd up keep exposing they bs sis
I love Monique💜
How can anyone not stand with Mo'Nique? I mean, really? Especially, our black community. It hurts when your own shame you; your own kind will hurt you more than the opposer. And at times the opposer is more accepting than your own. Hurtful! She is prominent in comedy and acting. 500k would be offered to Tiffany Haddish, not Mo'Nique. In my opinion. Mo have put in WORK! How can anyone fix there mouth agreeing with that amount?Mo'Nique is legendary. I'm 27 years old and I've seen her rose from the concrete to the endless heavens, and so have everyone else. But, however, when there's a black cult that has power like God, there will be a hard and long struggle to the end of the resolution. When you have OPRAH, LEE DANIELS, and TYLER PERRY against you...You will win Mo, I know you will!
They need to be able to make their money back.
Anthony Davis im not going to stand with someone as selfish as Monique. She dont care about us. She’s a front runner.
Marc Regal Mo'Nique has never exemplified any behavior, nor has never stated or commented on anything that shone negativity on the black community. In her stand-ups, Mo'Nique has always supported and uprooted our black men and women. Mo'Nique's audience is the black community; what significant facts upholds your opinions?
Anthony Davis She a front runner because we dont hear about her issues unless she feel she is wronged by ppl. she is always playing the victim. Always. I dont disagree with her on certain things, but she is ALL about herself, to me. She tries to come across and nice and loving and trying to play like the Angel, nah, you are not an angel. Stop with the act. Stop acting like you havent been bashing Oprah, those two director dudes. Same thing she did with Empire. Why complain about not getting the Cookie role. Shows change actors all the time for different roles bc they feel like someone is better. She complains complains and complains. Her complaining has shadowed her output of work. She is one who wants everyone to feel sorry for her while still tearing other black ppl down. Her husband and her are both dillusional
Marc Regal Mo'Nique has always had a private life until her open relationship podcast with her husband. A celebrity needs a private life and everything shouldn't be to the public. She had brought up more issues than those pertaining to herself. She had a late night talk show on BET where she addressed various black topics. How many times have she played victim? I don't know Mo'Nique personally, maybe you do I'm not sure, but from the time I've know her work, seen her interviews, and watched her host the BET Awards, she has always seem like a nice woman. I've seen her stand-ups and know she's a "real" woman from Baltimore...Oprah?! You would blast and/or do more if someone brings your family on a tv show which primarily relates to horrific childhood misbehavior...I can't believe our people...
Why hasn’t the breakfast club published this interview yet??
It has been out there since the interview. I saw it first on their site ???
Tori Madison
Facts....Monique published her video on Thursday the 22nd..& the breakfast club didn’t come out with there’s until Friday the 23rd..that’s why I asked this question
Listen LEONARD 😂
Leonard got read down!!!
Donkey of the day was appropriate, because when she did the video asking people to boycott Netflix due to gender and racial bias then went on to mention two black men and a woman with multi million dollar deals from Netflix, it didn’t make any sense. N lets be honest most of y’all are not watching a Monique special. She’s a great actress, I won’t take anything from her.
Thank you. People are missing the point. You cannot call something racist and gender and then site both. Plus she did not support the movement but now she wants everyone to support her. I can't remember any comedy except when she used to call all skinny girls bitches. Nothing since then. I think that turned a lot of people off but then she lot weight and dropped that line.
She is speaking up for herself.. nobody walks in her shoes... she knows her worth... if Monique feels her worth is more then what she was offered why can’t she say so. Everybody else has something to say but you to would not except anything if you felt this way also. We only know what we here on social media we on the outside looking in. I am proud of her if you don’t stand for anything you will fall for everything
The Daddy thing is creepy.
It got creepy when she said he’s raising her.. that’s totally left field.. you wanna call your man daddy.. cool beans.. I’ve done it, but your parents raise you.. not your husband
April real creepy 😂😂
It's creepy, but worse is having your husband represent you when she doesn't understand basic facts and timelines (keeps bringing up Snatched, as if Trainwreck wasn't the movie Schumer used to negotiate her Netflix deal).
Tiffany Chase exactly. That SOME LATINAS say it don’t mean it ain’t creepy.
yessssss its very creepy
She deserves respect, not hate, or excuses. I understand her and respect her. She is NOT “donkey of the day, “she is a hard working black woman.
I challenge anyone...tell me ONE joke of hers!!!
This is sooooo exhausting. Fact of the matter is., we birthed this ENTIRE planet and are the most underappreciated humans in the world. We have inherited the keys to the kingdom. Thank God. We will be and are alright.
Monique is the TRUTH!
She spoke essentially the same thing Chappelle did just recently...years ago...and we rallied with him but not her...notice how she said she has things on Netflix that has been on there’s for years but she never made a deal with them.
That's probably what she was going to do to Khia.
Rosalind Dixon yep
it's like sister Harriet Tubman said long ago...I could have saved more if they only knew they were slaves! I love you MONIQUE keep up the good fight!
celeste kirksey soooo, Tiffani Haddish is a slave? Cause she’s seems to be getting paid her worth. So is Viola Davis. So is Ocatavia Spencer. Are they slaves too.
Tee Money you must have misunderstood who the slaves are...not the free but the bondmen and bond women..do your research!
celeste kirksey what kinda Hotep shit it that?!?🤔
Tee Money that' proves you are truly ignorant.
Tori Madison why would she boycott the Oscar's?? they have been foul DUMMY! wake up or shut up!
Movies, Talk Show, Sitcom, Comedienne and GROWN. I think people forget how many things she does.
past tense.
Now, this is how you read an UNCLE TOM.
If you are not selling out stadiums and arenas you are not going to get paid like those who do. Why is that a mystery? Why is that up for debate? Why does race and gender matter?
thats the real question.
She was offered 3m at first if she give them a rough run. She said no so they gave her 500k.
Even she's saying that isn't true. I don't think they ever offered her $3M either.
Because she dont want to think negative !! She have faith in herself
ToniWz no one has offered her arenas so of course she is not selling them. That comment made no sense...
ToniWz the amount she wanted was never disclosed. 500 grand is a joke for 2 years of her work.
Oh shit, go Monique. ❤💋
PEFA - People Everywhere For Action I know not to mess with her..
Monique YU have talent ALOT OF IT💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽.. please stop 🛑 the 😭.. An go independent an show them better then YU can tell them..
I love you Monique ✊🏾
"I'm gon need you to know the history of us before you make a donkey of us".... nicely said.
This interview shed some light on some false news I heard about Mo'Nique situation too.
New respect for Mo'Nique. bklyn
I am so glad you address that shit because when I heard the comment, I thought the man was crazy!!! I could not believe Charlemagne would fix his mouth to make such a disrespectful and disloyal comment... What side is he on? TY's? He'll learn. Enough said!
Call the black panther and Wakonda, they can help.
Charlemagne the " Dog" is a makeshift, pseudo, superficial imitation of the original " shock jock radio personality, Howard Stern. He epitomizes his own rhetoric as if his views are beyond reproach, detracts attention from the issues to avoid critique, and disguises his malice through bogus humor and complicit statements to justify himself. Monique is the complete opposite... Let's stand for those who now deserve the due process on the same path that was paved by those who became our path founders for success in the entertainment industry.
Literally everything you said described monique
Timothy Blount thank you
Timothy thankyou
8:31 mark is the telling moment in this video. Charlemange informs them that Schumer got that deal off Trainwreck. Sidney (with his dumb ass) rebutts him by saying "netflix made that offer because she had a big movie coming out (Snatched, the one that tanked). Charlemagne says "coming out", which is correct, and completely obliterates Mo'Nique's argument that she shoulda gotten more because the ensemble comedy she starred in was more profitable that Schumer's SECOND movie that tanked.
Confronted with that obvious flaw in her certain argument, Mo'Nique changes the topic to Charlemagne's mother and grandmother and why it was wrong that she was donkey of the day.
Folks, if you can't see Mo'Nique is playing you by making a basic argument about market value/negotiations into an emotional argument about race/gender then you WANT to be played.
This woman did sj improv for 2 days this hole in the wall club holds 100 people she probably made about 4k for the whole weekend , if she believes she worth millions why not sell out one of the many arenas we have here in the bay🤔
Thats what they said but she feels she should not have to. Comedy is current and she is not. Chris Rock just left London. Hell Gary Owens booked a club here in London and sold it out for two shows last year. She could do the same but I guess she is too big for that.
Monique has a Netflix special already and is featured in another Netflix special. Obviously, Netflix knows SOMETHING. Just saying.
Those aren't Netflix specials, those are shows Netflix bought the rights to that Mo"Nique filmed years ago. But they likely ARE using the viewing data for those to formulate their offer to her.
Tee Money YOU DONT WHAT THEYRE DOING AT NETFLIX OMG YOURE SO CRAZY JUST STOP IT!!😂😂
If she and her "fans" think she worth 20 million, why doesn't she put her OWN money into it or why doesn't her "fans" do a kick stater or go fund me... Prove people wrong!!!! Y'all can say y'all on board with Monique and she's standing up for inequality but nobody on here is boycotting Netflix.
BOTTOM LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#LETSARGUE
Drek Mitch you know they take a percentage of that money right? Even if she did go that route she would have to hope that by the time she reached her goal for production, that she would still receive the same quote. She would make her money back, yes but that route will take years she would have to keep changing and adding jokes to stand up to keep up current events. It usually takes about 6 months to get a good stand up perfected before a tour can start
You are a stupid nigga straight up
Mea Morena I knew they took a percent, didn't know how much. Thank you for enlighten me on all the work it takes and maybe i was reaching when i said her fans should raise 20m, but she's the most "decorated" comedian alive, according to her; she's a legend, she's seasoned, so maybe she should match whatever her "fans" put in... Or is this still not the route to take, or maybe I really don't understand how it works. Basically what I'm saying is PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS!!
Drek Mitch I am, Netflix sucks anyway so speak for the rest of you uncle Tom.
prettymochame so I'm and everyone else are uncle Toms because we will not boycott Netflix because someone is throwing a fit? I'm sure Netflix will not miss your subscription, I mean they are a BILLION DOLLAR company...as a matter of fact take your money and start a gofundme for Monique
Dang Charlamagne made her donkey of the day but she made him look like a ASS for the day with her words articualy and intelligently like a strong black woman she is👍🏾❤️
Monique has such a soft comfortable voice 💚
Charlamagne lost me with this one, I can’t be a fan no more 🤦🏾♀️
Lenerd!
Sharon Hart 😂😂
MiAmoreNoir lmao 😂
Lol I died
From what I see when I see them together or in this case, him on the phone meaning even if not physically, his presence is still felt.....the way she pays attention and looks with sincerity when he speaks is pretty dope...and looks at others who are listening with the same sincerity to make sure they are actually listening as well...the way he manages and navigates her without controlling her is equally dope. Reciprocity.
I have to second that. I love you, Monique!
I can't mess with the Breakfast Club anymore. Can't do it! Mo'Nique calling out Leonard in front of his Mother and his Grandmother! lmmfao Thanksgiving is going to be Awkward as f**k for him!
The problem is "Daddy". She needs to woman up and fire her husband. He isn't good at his job, and you're only as good as your representation. He obviously isn't willing to fight for her in negotiations, and gives her misinformation. Whether it's to protect her feelings, or deflect from his ineptitude, it falls on him for stirring her up.
Charlemagne the ever-loving lasting goddess 😂😂😂😂😂
Monique is a beast and she has proven she will not tolerate disrespect.
She didn't read shit she avoided his question
But is Monique even a comedian anymore??? It’s always so deep and sooo Mother Love...no shade..but
Dynez Dennis she's a quadruple threat and Precious is 1 thing of many although I hated that movie anyway.
Dynez Dennis why when people throw shade they say no shade
correction Grammy Award Winning Comedian.
She does, but you clearly ain't a fan to know. So keep the shade to yourself.
Quadruple whet? She does comedy and acts. What's the other two?
i loved the way monique speak very elegant
There's a huge disconnect with women explaining to men of a certain consciousness what inequity and sexism is. Mo'Nique wasn't going to convince them, nor was she going to convince an audience who isn't familiar with doing business on this level. It's convenient for Lenard to refuse to concede to her point of view because at his core he's a pretty messy person and is hoping to create radio/internet gold like that the Birdman confrontation. We have so many opportunities to do better and support each other to raise up our community, but or programming is preventing this from happening.
And she could not concede to his where it relates to what has she done lately "comedy" wise to suggest she should receive that type of money. Its business and thats all besides in all her running around correcting everyone she just proves everyone right about her attitude and disposition and no one wants to deal with that.
My bitch call me daddy too S/O to Monique for knowing her role to her dude
I look at these comments and see that my opinion is way different then others. Charlamgna challenge monique instead of kissing her ass. And he isnt my favorite. Mo can't handle an opinion that's different then hers. I believe there is a race issue in this world...but in this case I feel that monique not getting certain jobs because she isn't funny.
Monique needs too keep up the good fight that all us sisters face daily, at the end of the day as a community we should be supported each other like other s do and build our own up. Ctha god if thiz was your plight you would say the same thing as monique.
People only suppprt what is relevant too them.... They say they love you but secrectly dispise you #blackmendobetter
this is fab go Mo'Nique and hubby: they did this to Lil Kim a couple of years ago: and she told breakfast club 'show some respect and do your homework too ' :)
I respect the way this interview went. Mo' throw tons of shade, but they both respected each other to be professional/adult about the situation.
‘Lenard’ or ‘Leonard’ … rotflmao
