Mo’Nique Slams Oprah, Tiffany Haddish, Kevin Hart, D.L. Hughley And More In Explosive Interview

After an explosive interview with Katt Williams last month on Shannon Sharpe‘s Club Shay Shay podcast, Oscar-winning actress and comedian Mo’Nique has now started her own blaze.

On the podcast’s most recent episode, The Parkers star sat with Sharpe for a candid conversation regarding her upbringing, disparities and betrayal in Hollywood, and the industry peers that have wronged her.

She also mentioned that she spoke on the same topic that Taraji P. Henson raised regarding Hollywood’s inadequate pay a decade ago — but no one stood behind her like they did for The Color Purple star due to her habit of naming names.

During the conversation, Monique “Mo’Nique” Hicks, voiced her past and present frustrations with people like Tiffany Haddish, Kevin Hart, D.L. Hughley, Will Packer, Tyler Perry, The President of Lionsgate and more.

No holds barred, the 56-year-old addressed Haddish speaking on her husband publicly, Perry stirring up a detrimental rumor about her, Packer once asserting that he was “The Head Ni**a In Charge” on a set, Oprah disrespecting her family, Hart doubling back on his promises, Hughley allowing an inappropriate question to be asked about her husband, and much more.

“When I saw that, it’s like, Tiffany, if you had a husband like mine, you may not have two DUIs,” she said about Haddish claiming to not want a husband like Sidney Hicks. “If you had a husband like mine, you may not be caught up in what looks like you could have been grooming a child.”

As far as Hughley, she admitted, “I never knew D.L. Hughley had a problem with me. [He said] I was bitter. I was dangerous with what I was doing … my husband didn’t know what he was doing.’ This went on through the years. ‘I was unloved.’ All of these things and I said to myself, ‘I’m a see you.’”

She also mentioned going on a show of Hughley’s where she was asked to play the questions game, “Would You Rather?”

Instead of the game being fun, she was asked a question that insinuated confusion about her husband’s sexuality.

Perry and Winfrey also got plenty smoke, as Mo’Nique claimed that both movie and TV moguls had her blackballed from Hollywood. The Baltimore-native shared the time that Winfrey called her to give her a heads up that only her brother would be coming on her talk show to discuss molesting the comedian when she was younger.

According to the NAACP Image award-recipient, Perry has admitted on audio to spreading the rumor that she was “difficult to work with,” which Sharpe also confirmed. For Mo’Nique, she expressed that she was hurt that many of the people who could have stood up for her did not, including Winfrey.

“Let me be clear: I love those people. We love those people, my husband and I love [them],” she spoke of those she mentioned. “They’re our brothers and sisters and as my husband always says, ‘Momma, we ain’t calling nobody out, we’re simply calling them up to say, listen let’s make our community better by making it right, not running and hiding by what you consider is your power.”

Additionally, the mother-of-two explained how she feels she was used as an example for what happens when Black women speak up, despite her successful track record. “If I was a white woman, my name would be Melissa McCarthy,” she said. “Same track record. Five-year sitcom in syndication. Same track record. The opportunities are not the same.”
