You’ll always have me Tuning in, as long as you Keep it Real Don!!! And Lord knows I’m your Biggest Fan! As I Love ❤️ your Transparency & Honesty!!!👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻👍🏻By the Wayyyyyyyy, D. Lemon, You don’t Look 👀 A Day Over Fabulous!! Happy 😊 Belated 58th Blessed 😇 Birthday 🎂 🥳
Monique - Ask ur son to forgive you, what you have done to ur son is absolutely WRONG!!! You kept talking about Oprah and Tyler for this long because they hurt ur feelings, what about ur son feelings? The fact that you responded to ur son on media by itself makes it easy to see ur son’s point. He was responding to u but u let his step-dad respond- come on, that is just wrong!!!
@Ninasee19. @@user-nu5uc4gm8q. Monique is narcissistic and manipulative. She’s looking to friends to resolve her conflictS⁉️ The very fact that she tries to make a 14 year old issue a test of friendship tells you everything you need to know. She needs to move on. No one needs relationship ‘advice’ from her. That was a backhanded swipe at Oprah. Not every woman wants a daddy for a spouse and THAT should be respected. But what should inform us about her character more than anything is the public way she and her enabler Daddy mistreated her son. That’s the relationship she should be trying to fix. And, calling grown folks baby is a put down, a way of softening her harsh, hostile tone🛑 I wish you well Don🤗❤️. Thank you for doing what you do🙌. Protect your energy. These social media screets can be draining.
I thank Mo'Nique for being unapologetically herself, and standing up for what is right. Sometimes it can be a lonely road, but you're not alone. Good interview, Don. I'm enjoying you on this platform. 💜💜💜
May be a lonely road for her, but it’s the road she herself, chose. And that’s the core accountability issue I think Monique struggles with. In her mind she believed that because she was justified, after declining to promote Precious for free at Cannes, momma believed that things were automatically going to go back to business as usual for her career wise. I can’t for the life of me figure out why the hell neither Tyler nor Oprah offered to compensate her just for the sake of promoting the movie, but her refusal to promote embarrassed both Monique and Tyler. And that’s why they made her pay. People don’t seem to understand that justification doesn’t absolve one of inherent responsibility. We all know it’s the principle with Monique. You won an Oscar and so just like everyone else who won one before you, you were obligated to the exact same expectations & respectability politics and everyone else, even if that meant you temporarily had to work for free. Just because you’re right when you piss off other people it doesn’t guarantee that there won’t still be consequences waiting for you. 🙋🏾♂️My $.02
Mo’Nique= Respect 👏 As a child protection social worker of 18 years who was raised in foster care for 18 years I can tell you first hand that Monique’s portrayal of Precious’ mother was a gift from the goddess’s. Other than this role I don’t know any of her work, but I can tell you that the honesty and passion with which she talks is a conviction from the soul. She is real and she is raw and her crime is that whilst those sisters and brothers who sold her out also lost something of themselves along their journey to being,Mo’Nique clearly refuses to - for the sake of posterity. Bless her and her hubby. An entertainer of the highest calibre 🙏.
First of all, it's still all lies.If Mo'nique had a case, she would have filed a lawsuit, and the only reason they have not responded... They don't need to respond to lies.
It takes people like Mo'nique to kindle a conversation that will break any stereotype and culture that’s been prevailing and flourishing for years. The struggle continues, the feminist movement is not done yet. Ill treatment of women in this industry has to come to a stop, and Mo'nique is fantastic and needs our support especially men.
It’s the system of WS which want/need Negros/Freedmen/Foundation Black Americans girls, young ladies and women to join the system of WS feminists movement to keep trying to divide the Black Men & Black Women apart !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sometimes you have to let things go just for the sake of your own peace of mind Monique. You have to choose peace of mind over being right!! When we do to each other the other people sit back and tea it and laugh
Mo'Nique, people are uncomfortable around opinionated and vocal women. It doesn't matter if we are 100% correct. You are so talented, but powerful people have big egos. It is suffocating sister. I love how you speak out for black women. Love you. Love your talent in "The Reading". My prayers to you in yours.🙏🏾
That was a kind way to point out that she’s obviously wrong. I was struggling to find a way to say it politely that she’s totally wrong and should rethink her entire philosophy on life. May god bless your warm heart ❤️
Does she speak for black women though? The reason why Taraji's statement found resonance was cos she made it about the industry versus black women, I only recall Monique making it all about her and her perceived wrongs about her.
MoNique doesn't need to apologize for being outspoken, our community need more people who love themselves, the color of her skin! Be Black First and f$$$ who doesn't like it 😮

Absolutely !!!!!!!!!!!!! Black First ( B1 ) We all we got and all we need for the Negros/Freedmen/Foundation Black Americans families, fu*k that WS feminists movement this is a tactic to divide the Black Men & Black Women apart !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love Monique because I love real, genuine & relatable. I could never work in Hollywood. I wouldn't make any money. Monique keep speaking the truth. It always prevails and wins.

I'm with you on that. To think they got mad at him for telling truths. Nikki Haley called Trump unhinged in February. Fast forward five months later she announced she is voting for unhinged to be president. That for sure sounds like the brain of someone not in their prime.
😢Jesus!!!!! This interview overwhelmed my heart because Monique, is literally begging Our Black Men to stand up for her, and make this right!😢 She's saying; hey guys,🙋I need not only my husband to protect me, but, I need for y'all to protect "US Black Women", in this industry! Stand up for us, let them know we will not take less of anything!🙅🤨 Thank you, Mr. Lemon, for your Kind gestures to all who are involved. I still have hope that they all will come to the table and give us closure for OUR culture. 🥹❤️🙏
You mean the black woman that only blasts other black men and Oprah in the industry? She wants other black men to back her up on taken down other black men? Stop
I hope they don't sit down and have a conversation because she's the problem. She recorded Tyler and Tyler didn't know her and her daddy were doing that. That was slimy. Her husband needs a Job. Also that's Don Lemon podcast. She would answer some questions directly.
@@rhondadaniels3325 why can’t she do one single interview without him? It’s crazy. How are we supposed to see her as an independent fighter when she has her man sitting next to her, answering for her and just making things worse.
Monique’s agents and attorneys should have negotiated the Precious contract. THAT is the problem. Monique should NOT be dealing with these producers or production companies. Period.
Are you slow or something. She stated multiple times she honored her contract and they later wanted her to work for free outside her contract. Whew chile smh 😊
It is old. But i have autism. I like repetition. Sets me at ease. I haven't watched it yet but I already know what she's gonna say and how she's gonna say it😂.
@@roddo1955 IM SCREAMING. im autistic too and i have lived for this story for the past 10 years, i will never tire of her and "daddy" talking about their ops

Hey everybody I am a 77year old mother,grandmother and a child of God. I always tell one who i belong to. Praise His Holy Name. It's Saturday morning at 3:40am and the day after Good Friday. I am so glad to see and hear you again Mr. Lemons!!!!!!! I really enjoyed this program and I will continue to watch you. Thank you for giving Monique and her husband a platform to have their say. I think you were very fair the way you conducted your program. Ok
The misconception is that it's one sided. It's not. What can be said about the other side can be said about this side. We've gotten support as well as mistreatment from the other side and the same can be said amongst the group itself. We ignore and overlook people when we paint them all with the same brush and that is what keeps the pot stirring. Some people do right by you and some do wrong to you and they can be from either/or.

The game they wanted her to play Don was to promote the movie and all that it entailed for free. They wanted her to continue with promotions as if she was still in contract. The question is why they didn't offer her something to do further promotions? Why did they assume she would have done it? She did what she had to do, like most actors and actresses. Great Show and Welcome Back. So good to see you. Keep up the Great work!❤
They assumed she would do it so she can get further success in Hollywood but she wasn’t willing to play the game! It’s her loss that she has to deal with
You don't know what you are talking about. In the film industry, actors get all their expenses paid so they are not out of pocket for anything, but they don't get a salary for promoting the project. Oprah, Tyler, Lee, Whoopi, Will Smith, The Rock, and countless others tried to tell Mo this, but she refused to listen. That was her choice to make...but 15 years later she is still whining about the consequences of, essentially, trying to extort money from Oprah, Tyler, and Lionsgate. She was the star of the film and figured they would cave to her demands. We see what happened.
Don, the first five minutes where you explain why this platform is gonna be different from cable news... Thats gonna be your bread and butter for these interviews, videos etc. youve got all the time now. Now all you have to do is get everyone WE want to hear from. Heck at this point go head to head with Candace. She is looking for attention.
I don’t understand why she and her husband keeps comparing her contract dispute with TP to slavery. That’s annoying. I also thinks it’s unfair that she expects other ppl to talk to TP about their issue. No 1 has to get involved with their beef. Even if Don Lemon calls TP, what makes her believe it will make any difference. If TP owes her why doesn’t she sue?
Quit trying to obligate others to contact Tyler & Oprah for your benefit. If they don't want to speak on you, or to you then there is nothing anyone can do.
You wouldn’t say that if these same people fucked up your money and career. They say “we don’t care until it gets close to home.” If you ve never been wronged like that. Please don’t speak on it because you have no idea of how devastating this is to someone emotionally, mentally and financially. Instead show some empathy and support. I swear people nowadays!!!
You don’t know what the FUCK I would do!!! This is my Fucking opinion and will speak on what the hell I want - just like you. Whether wronged or not! Quit acting like your way or their way is the right way. I said what the hell I said and IDGAF what you say!!! Yeah- people now days!!!!!!!
Monique just wants to hear herself bitch about things. DL Hughley did not air that radio segment, but she conveniently leaves that out. However, she does not say that she brought up the trauma of DL's daughter, unsolicited. Monique is trash and her Netflix special was trash.
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯 THANK YOU on behalf of us truth tellers! It’s been utterly exhausting and heartbreaking what we’ve been through! Workplace bullying and being retaliated against instead of holding the bullies accountable for their harmful behavior - words and actions is A HELL OF A LOT to deal with. Far too many EXTREMELY talented and upstanding individuals experience this, sometimes throughout their whole careers…someone always intimidated by our light, exceptionalism, confidence, good character/ integrity. 😩
I love you for your understanding and wisdom. ♥️ Thank you for checking that heartless individual. ✅ MUCH respect 🫡 to you from Renée in San Francisco. ♥️🌉💫
I agree with what Monique said. You seemed cold and brushed her off, you didn't treat your sister right, but I'm glad you came and fixed that. Thank you and love you both.
Wow. This is a great interview. I never really knew what happened with Monique until now. This is very sad and disappointing. Just because she stands up for what matters to her doesn't make her a difficult person. Why are people so intimidated by those who speak up?
CNN has not been the same since Don Lemon. I always look forward to hearing his voice, points of view, leading political ltopics etc... on that show. He is missed.
Moniques face after Lemmon completely side stepped the situation regarding holding your friends accountable is priceless!!!! She was real and vulnerable and he completely failed in being genuine. Just something to keep in mind when Don keeps representing himself as a honest man of integrity or being a "real bkackman".
@da1kid101 I did watch the whole interview,his weak commitment to calling them in no way addresses the question she asked him earlier on how he could not hold his friends accountable, how he could still be friends with people who acted by throwing people under the bus, and how he or anyone else, could not openly call then out for lying on her after admiting they were wrong. He's not new to what's been happening to her, and it wasn't his first time hearing those Tyler tapes, again, him saying that he's going to call them is in my opinion, him still completely avoiding accountability.
I honor what you stand for my dear, Mrs Monique. Our ancestors died and went through a lot for us to have better than history today and yes there's still a lot that has to better and you are playing that role so that our tomorrows will be better than today😢❤ You are one of our heroes!
I haven’t even watch the video but newsflash Monique Oprah , Tyler perry and whoever else u been beefing with, don’t care … get over it ! Let your success be your vengeance !
Why should she have to get over it? Why are black people always supposed to get over it and let horrible shit go!?! They fucked in her career. That is insane. These powerful people lied on her and it cost her money and jobs….wtf.
@@lrcluv3588Yeah. Oprah is never going to apologize to her. Maybe there is hope with Tyler Perry. But she better just focus on being successful because she is incredibly talented.
Agreed. They tagged team him and continuously asked vague questions. They also misconstrue and exaggerated what Tyler said. Also, isn’t it peculiar that they happen to record this phone conversation and then only share part of the conversation, and I’m assuming Tyler wasn’t aware he was being recorded

Why does she think someone supposed to run up on another for her interactions with these people....she has lost her damn mind. She coming after people and disrespecting them because she wants these people to confront some shit that they can't clarify. She needs a slap of respect and resolve her own fame family that she been running with for years
Don it’s not your responsibility to call Tyler and get into it! Let Monique deal with her mess like an adult by calling them herself instead of keep talking about it
It’s now beginning to sound condescending when she uses the word “baby” to describe a person….almost like saying a person doesn’t know no better and needs guidance or something…..grown people🤦🏾♀️🫤
Thank you, Mr. Lemon. I loved this dialogue. Mo'Nique is a firebrand of truth about the ugly side of the entertainment industry for black entertainers, especially black women. You and Mo'Nique are very, very courageous and I am here for that. Tell the truth and I thank you for it.
Monique is very talented, but I’m sorry, all I see is a woman who creates conflicts when she doesn’t get the answer she wants. And she goes out of her way to make It public. She has made a brand out of all These beefs. That’s what she is now, a beef brand.
Don, I appreciate your interviewing style. Guest just can't throw out statements without going into detail about what they mean on your show. People may feel one way, but that's just excellent journalism skills. I have a degree in Mass Communications, and I recognize your thorough questions. Keep up the great content!❤
Been a fan of yours for a long time. Thank you for your fairness in interviews, and definitely thank you for sharing this on Mo’nique, she stands for us who like to stand up for ourselves.
Monique is a brilliant actress. I love and miss seeing her in movies. I pray that she will get to a better place concerning this matter. It almost appears that she is begging for them to make it right. She is above all of that and some. I love the beautiful queen that she is and will always be.🙏🏽🙏🏽😊😊

WOW 😮 What a Most Blessed 😇 Awesome Interview with Monique & Sidney! They are So Amazing & I Love ❤️ ❤their Love 💕 for one another & Their Realness!! Well it doesn’t Get Any Better Then That!!! Thankyou Don Lemon for making my Tuesday March 25th 2024. So Incredible by having them on your Show!! This Genre is Wayyyyyyyy Better then any!! As I Love ❤️ The Talk, back & Forth between you & them!!! I have So Much Respect & Admiration for Monique & Sidney!!!!! Don One ☝🏼 Word: Mesmerizing!!!!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻
I absolutely love Monique!❤ she absolutely says what most everyone else in Hollywood is deathly afraid of. Thank God for voices of principal like hers.
Superb interview that made me get more clearer answers to Mo’Nique standing her ground; yet still one of the best that’s still killing it in the game!!
Monique makes a point but she is not completely being honest. Her being fat and black did not stop her from getting roles, have we forgotten that she was all over TV, in so maby movies, even had a talk show. She started talking about Oprah,Tyler,and several others who had the "MONEY" to produce shows and movies that she COULD have been in, ahe was being difficult. She was asked to do something, she declined. They have a right nor to want to qork with her anymore. All of us at sime point have had a boss and ate asked to do things beyond our job descriptions and if we say "NO" its gonna be a problem. She affected her own career. She assumes his words affected her but she worked after that and fell out with other producers
Really? She can't find one thing that she may have contributed to this situation........denial, please just move on and stop forcing folks to jump into your drama👎🏽

26:18 the Better question is what is your responsibility to your own success? Don Lemon is a living testimony of being able to keep moving and create your own lane.
@@robertbrown7051 👍Exactly‼️ Monique seems mired in grievance and that’s not a place that facilitates growth. The issue is not Tyler or Oprah or D. L. Hugely or Kevin Hart or Charlemagne or Tiffany Haddish or Steve Harvey or Cynthia Lee or Don in the CNN interview or her son Shalon or this person or that person and the list goes on. She needs to look within. Who do we know who’s had this many public beefs⁉️She gives angry, argumentative, unreasonable and, yes, difficult to work with. She slings racist and other nasty insults. I wouldn’t dignify her claims with a response.
@@robertbrown7051 YET Monique's insistance got Lee Daniels to PUBLICLY APOLOGIZE to her plus work with her and produce a successful movie. Not my type of genre but there were good reviews. Some people like Mo and Sydney realize life is about holding on to your principles NOT about taking the easy road. They need to be like Katt and create their own productions.... Unfortunately they don't seem to know HOW to create their own lane. For me this goes back to when she lost her show on BET
@@robertbrown7051Y'all are so slow....SHE WAS BLACKBALLED!! Omg the lady kept saying that she lost many opportunities, and now she's working! Also, Don invited her just like Shay Shay they're asking these questions! Y'all are some weak ass men...uggghhh
Why are they gaslighting. Please move on!! Everybody can not be wrong. All parties involved bares some responsibility. They have moved on. Why cant they. It is sooo insulting to compare a celebrity to slavery! Are you fricken serious! ???
Its really sad. Lee daniels is the person who did her wrong thats why he apologised . Tyler saying she was difficult to work with isnt enough to black ball her.oprah apologized as well.
If y’all are…She talks about standing up for one other so Taraji P Henderson wouldn’t be going through what she going through we as a people are very sad
If I were Tyler and Oprah, hell would freeze over before I would accept a phone call, do an interview or have a conversation with or about Monique and her husband/Uncle Daddy. Monique has been talking about the same subject for over 20 years! She needs to let it go. Besides the fact that she records your conversations! She and uncle daddy are not to be trusted. Professional, whiners, kick rocks. 😏
Why Monique need people to talk to Tyler Perry and Oprah for her. I don’t like Monique’s attitudes towards Tyler and Oprah! The phone call was rude and honestly if I was Tyler and Oprah I would call her difficult too. The way she talked to Tyler Perry was rude. I wouldn’t give her no opportunities. Make your hubby u call daddy get you opportunities as your Netflix was a flop and you’re not funny at all. You don’t talk to your son, family, mom and dad! That tells you something about yourself that u can’t keep relationships. Tell your daddy to get a job and stop messing your connections in Hollywood. Instead of forcing relationships with Oprah and Tyler try to reconnect with your eldest son and mother! U only bothering Oprah and Tyler because they have money and opportunities!
@@DianC-yn4eiI watched a couple of clips! Lovely Ti said she went to watch the Katt Williams show and Monique opened and that it was cringe. All the cussing and vulgarities that after a few minutes it’s boring
When you’re a victim of racism/discrimination it’s horrible situations to be in and you can’t do anything about it but watched them laughs at your face . What we needs is stand together and fight to change for the better and we are not going backwards
@@ericmckinney4607Yup! She was just talking crap about him a couple days ago and about Chelsea Handler about a joke she made. She thought they where talk about her because she did not listen to the entire joke and just a clip. She is so problematic and doesn’t listen

I really don't like when Mo'Nique leverages people's friendships with Tyler and Oprah to stand for her issues with them. Every interview she does that with the host! I believe she deserves whatever she supposed to get from them but STOP bringing the host's friendship in it!
Lee Daniels may have worded that wrong, but had she gone and did that one interview, it would have changed her career. I will say, she wasn't wrong for not doing it. However, running her mouth publicly about over and over again is wrong. This energy is not going to resolve nothing.
They told her how it would adversely impact her career if she didn't go to Cannes. She said ok and hung up the phone. What she doesn't understand is that it was Lionsgate who wanted her to go to Cannes not Tyler or Oprah. She turned down a major studio's request and that's why her career has been soggy since.
