Monique - lets boycott Netflix for Racism and Sexism

[ManxOfxThexYear]

Monique has put in YEARS of work -- sitcom, films, specials -- and yes -- she has an Oscar. That should mean something.

What does Amy Schumer have over her besides being White?

Monique should have gotten at least 1M (after taxes). So, about 1.5 million should have been the offer.

 

[xoxodede]

why would they give her that much when nobody is checking for her like that ?

How you figure nobody checking for her? How does one even measure that? IG fame?

Monique has been doing comedy shows/tours and they have been sold out. I remember seeing snippets last year during the Oprah issue.

She knows her worth.

 

[Uncle Hotep]

Amy Schumer got 13 mill and y'all cool wit the sister getting 500k?

 

[xoxodede]

Literally NOBODY was clamoring for a Monique Comedy special. You really trying to put her on the same level as Whoopie or some shyt. Now if Whoopie was offered 500k I could get outraged. Monique, lol fukk no.

Did I say Whoopie? Does Whoopie even do comedy specials? Does Whoopie even have a Black following like that? Nah.

The point is Monique deserves more that 500K from Netflix. White people who NOBODY knows gets that.

 

[King Sun]

Nah ... Cedric>>>Monique

I'm not talking about skill. Just from a business standpoint

 

[xoxodede]

That's a good point. If I could see what comedians in her tier are offered I could have an informed opinion.

What Black comedians - Black women comedians/actresses out there beside Sommore? And have been for a long time. Don't name Tiffany H. please.

Monique is in her own tier.

Y’all just pulling numbers out of your ass

The only way to gauge if she was unfairly lowballed is if Netflix was offering a comparable man or comparable white women more money. What they offered Chappelle, Chris Rock, and Amy Schumer is irrelevant.

I don't know what you don't get about this. Sold out doesn't really mean shyt. He'll John Henton sold out the Stardome Comedy Club here in Birmingham

And he ain't getting 500k for a netflix special.

There are no comparisons for her. She really is in her own lane.

 

[chowism]

Monique was hot in the 90s with Moesha and Queens of Comedy

The Parker's bruh

 

[Dameon Farrow]

Man getting blackballed is really the kiss of death out there. Yikes.

 

[Uncle Hotep]

Alabama doesn't even count. She has done major cities as well.

All in all, I just want Black people to be paid what we are worth. Stop co-signing or questioning someone who has been in the game longer than many of us has been in the world.

So then you admit you just pulled that $1M figure out of your ass?

(And there are comparisons. We’re not talking about comparing her content or even her ability. We’re talking about comparing her popularity, her draw, her bank-ability)
