You don't win an Oscar and get the boot right away for just being a jerk. It's naive to think Jew producers weren't having with a BLACK women standing up for what she believed in

Why not? Again, Randy Quad went from being nominated for academy awards and golden globes in 2005 then was off the Hollywood train once he started to be difficult and weird on set.

It's not naive to think that there is a possibility she was really difficult when she said so herself. You can play the 'fight the power' all you want but the last director to work with her was black.

:what: In what way? What rumors and incidents have you heard of her going off on people or "acting like a diva". Read the article again. They're labeling her as "tacky" and "difficult" because she didn't kiss ass and campaign for her little gold statue. That's a far cry from being a bytchy diva.

That's her story breh. Im not going to sit and argue with you as if you know how she was on or off set. She said herself she was difficult.

As far as not putting in work to promote a movie, Kevin Hart did the same thing and still is getting movies. If you make them money they deal with it. If they don't, they don't have to. It's just like any other job.

During the promo season for "Precious," Monique refused to do interviews and had big demands for the studio financing the movie.

Host of her own BET talk show, ‘The Mo’Nique Show,’ the comedian took some heat during the promotion of ‘Precious’ for reportedly refusing to help promote the film without being paid. In a February interview with the Associated Press, Mo’Nique explains:
“Well, when they say Mo’Nique was worried about money, I wasn’t worried about money. Mo’Nique has a talk show that comes on five nights a week and she tapes six times a week for that talk show. And yes, when I leave my home, I leave my home and get paid to leave my home, so I wasn’t worried about money. They simply said, “You know, well Mo’Nique we can’t pay you to do that.” … We said, “OK, baby. Well, then, that’s not something we can do.” Because, when I leave out, why ever would I go do something for free when I can go and do something and bring money back home to my family?”


How much is that BET talk show paying you now? :usure:

I mean this is what EVERY smart entertainer does though. They get PAID for damn near everything they do in regards to movies or events. They got pissed at Kevin Hart in those leaked Sony emails for the same thing. It's just good business.

The fact that she openly admits to her faults shows that she has a critical sense of self-awareness that most people lack --- especially in hollywood. When you hear most people self assess themselves (especially when discussing a personal conflict with other persons or an entity), they'll never admit a fault, and always blame and deflect on to others. Being a lil rough around the edges and not being a push over might not be the best for your career, but she's clearly standing on firm moral ground.

Thats not good. She doesnt have the capital to do that coming from the parkers and her since cancelled BET talk show. Oscar win or not

No actor should have to promote a movie for free. Sony tried to pull the same shyt with Hart. fukk that noise, if you want them to go out and promote then they should be compensated. Its asinine to think otherwise IMO.

hollywood doesnt care about this. Plenty of black comedians make fun of white ppl in their act and still have great careers.

It's really about how you treat ppl on sets and off-camera. Are you being a diva and making other ppl's lives more difficult? Are you costing them money? She said she was told she's "tactless, tacky, difficult", and she didn't deny it, but blamed it on being from Bmore

They'll go out of their way to work w/ you to get a project done, they'll bend over backwards to cater to your demands....but while you're thinking you got the juice now, they're putting you on the blacklist. Soon as that project is done, they're not gonna fool w/ you anymore.

"The game" in Hollywood is different for Black talent. But IMO, whether you're black or white, you should just be happy to be there.

You'd have to be psychopath to be "happy" in Hollyweird:demonic:

Right but they make tons of money for the studio so they put up with it. It's no different than the all star who is an a$$hole but drops 30 a game. a$$holes who don't produce get waived, like Josh Smith. a$$holes who do produce, like Kobe, don't.

There is also plenty of white actors that don't get work anymore because of it as well. Randy Quad became difficult and weird on set so they let ol boy ride off into the sunset for the same reason.

Now Bill Cosby is getting black balled because people are all making sure he doesn't get work even if they don't know the allegations are all true. MoNique being a pain and people not calling her is all her doing.

Collin Farrell movies are bomb after bomb, he's a noted a$$hole but STAY getting work, hell his next big payday is the next season of True Detective on HBO :heh:

It's race, period, stop trying to cape for cacs

Asking for money to help promote.a.film that you've been nominated for is ridiculous. It would be like players demanding salaries for coming to a combine. The Oscar is so u can get that real money.
I believe the studi0 ed, but Lee Daniels gay ass was playin chess. This fool let the studio ride on Monique so he could get a cl0ser partnership with.Oprah and that Harpo money. He coulda fought for Mo and straightened her out before the next movie on protocol, but I know this fukk nikka was mad cuz Mo probably was makin him look stupid not campaigning. That phone call was a test to see if she was gon keep her mouth shut. I know he probably was hopin Mo was gon fukk it up so he could get Harpo down with his faggy teama. Mo waited a few months probably thinking she was gon get another shot and when the role went to Oprah again for Pryor's grandma, she said fukk It and spoke out and failed the test.

Note how Daniels said they could still collabo on future roles but teh "powers" ain't feelin her. bytch nikka just showed his hand right there that this blackballing is coming from him, even if it meant not speaking up for her when he could've to let whitey and/or Oprah refuse financing. I wouldn't be surprised if Monique was cast just to bring Oprah to the table and let her think she was makin a b0ss move by takin Mo's roles by force. Flattered that old mammy into 3 flicks and a damn primetime show like a pimp.


It's also possible the whole thing was a set-up from jump to front like Monique was gon be the next Oprah with a breakout role and a talk show, so Harpo could feel threatened and then they could welcome her and her money with open arms and kick Mo to the bushes. shyt, I figure that's why they made Latifah finally come out the cl0set after Will and Jada got her that show. Mammy ain't bout to lose her top c00n spot in Hollywood. I would salute Daniels for pimpery and strategy, but fukk that faggy c00n.:stopitslime:
