If you understand she's getting low balled, then she's doing the right thing, while also checking other venues
I don't understand many of you, Amy complained publicly for more money basing her argument on double standards between men and women, but let a Black woman/Blackman do the same thing, then they wrong and should've done something different?

I get what your saying, but my point is at some point Mo’s brand has taken a hit. All I’m saying is I’d prefer to see more of her doing what she does best, using as many media platforms that are available. I don’t hear about her that much anymore, unless it’s some industry beef. I want her to win, Ive been going to see her live when given the chance for over 20 years, but the game has evolved. I understand tho it about respect, and if this the route she’s chose so be it.

Exactly. Even when she was poppin, she was always known for The Parkers fame:manny:. I remember when I was listening to a Snap cd where comedians were doing "ya mama" jokes, she was like lowest common denominator on that album:huhldup:. Monique was not really a good comedian, she was just a character to be honest:ld:

You’ve never even heard anyone say what I said in that post, talking about a “talking point”. The only thing that you’ve exposed is the fact that you’re a passive aggressive bytch. I’m not in the mood to do the trolling back n forth thing so you’re just going to kick you out of my coli-experience. Good luck.
lol this clown nikka. The only troll is you trolling yourself thinking that "Blackwoman throwing Blackman under the bus" is new and enlightening claim
Such a claim has no relevance in this thread, but leave it to a dap-fishing Blackwoman hater to force a correlation, while believing you're deep. th th theColi.com

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, maybe you haven't heard about the claims of her being blackballed by Lee Daniels and Oprah, so you may not have factored that in why she hasn't been in the spotlight for sometime.
I did factor that into my reasoning and I think that Netflix and other execs for upcoming projects knows about the blackballing, so they trying to get her at dirt cheap rates

I'm assuming she just ended negotiations, so I'm not sure enough time has passed for the "at some point" argument
Her resume and talent only demands a better offer, regardless of race

Then she wonders why shes blackballed :picard:

1 Director she worked with said they would LOVE to work with her again...if she just shut the fukk up. He basically said shes blackballing herself by constantly saying shes blackballed :ehh:

She'd have a point if this we just after Precious. She should've tried to talk them to a mill; might've gotten 750k, if she was lucky. If her special did well, maybe they give her a mill for a 2nd one.

Has anybody ever confirmed that she was blacklisted? Like a producer or anyone?

This was not the correct play.

Gender bias and color bias are real for sure.

Of course they would pay the black woman less.. but +2000% less? She’s just not as popular currently as the other 3..

I am personally surprised she was approached by Netflix.

With the special she could have raised her stock and relevance, she would have the ability to get more shows and tour and make more money AND renegotiate for a second show with Netflix and make more money.

Now she is just the Instagram post of the day...

I wonder if she knows how many people watch netflix and how many people she would need to make an impact. Amy Schmuer is a terrible comedian but at the end of the day is the only female popping comedian who stars in block buster movies. Monique ain't relevant like that, not saying she ain't funny (bc she is) but the last film people talked about starred that heavy set girl YEARS ago.

:snoop: Aren't Chris and Dan black?

Isn't Amy a woman?

One, we taking boycotting too far. I boycotted the NFL because they systemically destroyed Kaepernick's career and made a mockery of his protest for a very real issue.

Netflix doesn't want to hire Monique for what ever reason. I can't say she's being black balled because they just don't wanna pay her $10 million plus.

That said; it is wack that black actresses don't stand up for one of their own. I thought she deserved support during the Lee Daniels/Oprah beef.

She’s nuts and delusional. I see why she hasn’t found any type of work since precious
