“Can’t get”????
This ain’t about what Netflix can afford to pay her. Surely they could afford to pay her more. Just like they could afford to pay the stage hands more. As long as they aren’t paying the black or female stage hands less than they’re paying the white and male stage hands then there’s no basis in claiming Netflix is being racist or sexist with their compensation. Ditto for Mo’Nique. If she’s going to make these claims, she’s going to need to present a case where Netflix negotiated more fairly with a comparable talent.
1M is clearly not BIG money. Especially after taxes.Not enough for her to get big money.
We have to agree to disagree. Cause there is not other comparable talent to compare her with. Who would you say?
Netflix signs deal with comedian Russell Peters for original comedy special and documentary
Judd Apatow on Returning to Stand-Up Comedy After 25 Years
This is important whos to say Netflix is even getting 500k in return, on their investment i highly doubt monique is selling that many tickets shes supposed to perform in NY today atBreh Netflix is about making money, they don't give a fukk. Them giving her a show in first place can't be a punishment, it's not like everyone are getting their specials at Netflix . Who else that's a retired part-time comedian, doing love and hiphop, never had any main role, cancelled shows, tv-show cameo is even getting Netflix Specials?
If they are giving her a show in first place, we've already cleared any blackballing accusations. Then the price, they are most likely going by the market price. How many shows has she sold out lately, how many of Netflix demographics are fans of her, is she getting any primetime series, is she starring as main actress in any big movie and on? Rhetorical questions.
She got an Oscar for supporting, not for main and it wasn't a comedy.
It's like Cece Winans blaming Live Nation for racism and sexism cause she isn't getting what Kendrick gets for a show.
Not to mention Netflix CEO held fundraisers for Obama and is married to one of Obamas people, a black woman who quit her day job as ambassador to be a full-time activist.
Funny thing about racism too is that the two men that got those astronomical sums were Dave Chapelle and Chris Rock, ain't a drip of cac blood in those brehs .
On the real though, this shyt is irritating and evil. Just giving white cats and c00ns a reason to not pay attention to the wild degree of racism out there.
Let's be real though that whole boycott is bullshyt just because she didn't get what she wanted. I'm just saying she should command at least a MIL or 3I knew about the promo shyt but i really need the issue to be larger and not just some petty shyt that could have been discussed behind closed doors and squashed..
