Mo’Nique’s Three Year Hobo Tour: Part 1- Empire
Mo’Nique has established herself as an important marker in the entertainment industry as a comedian and an actress; having made great strides: breaking barriers for women, African Americans, and plus size people.
She initially became well-known from her hit show The Parkers. She went on to host her late night talk show The Monique Show in 2009 to 2011. She earned an Oscar for her role in Precious and was nominated for an Emmy in Bessie.
After her Precious and Bessie roles we did not see as much as Mo’ as we should have, for an Oscar awardee. She came out about four years ago to tell her story.
Watch Lovelyti’s first video on the situation: Mo’Nique says EMPIRE creator Lee Daniels told her she was “Blackballed” after her Oscar win.
Mo’ continued to defend herself against the allegations of a nasty attitude. To shed light on Lee Daniels character, Mo’ alleged that Daniels once called Halle Berry a B***ch “[out of nervousness]”:
Around the same time, Mo’nique says she was supposed to play Cookie on Empire. The co-creator of Empire, Danny Strong, said that was not true, and Cookie has always been Taraji’s role:
Lee Daniels allegedly claimed Mo’Nique was never considered for the role of Cookie, and the show’s co-creator Danny Strong insisted that she’s never been offered the part. In response, during her interview on Sway in the Morning, Mo’Nique brought along proof that she was offered the role of Cookie, in the form of a printed email chain between her and Daniels’ team.
This was around April of 2015. Mo’ later came back onto the radar in May of 2017 when a clip of her comedy show went viral, in which she blasted Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry.
“[They] could suck my d*** if I had one.
Mo’ continued her tour in January of 2018 at Netflix headquarters.
Tiffany Haddish Says She Wants To Tell Jokes In Lingerie On ‘73 Questions’
Home girl you talk too much!
The best advice: “Never trust nobody,” the “Girls Trip” star says in the Vogue video.
Tiffany Haddish admits she’s “a hot mess from time to time” and always wanted to tell jokes on stage wearing lingerie in the latest “73 Questions” video with Vogue magazine.
The “Girls Trip” star, living up to her hilarious reputation, tells Condé Nast’s Joe Sabia that some of the best advice she’s received is “never trust nobody,” and explains how she tricks the universe into giving her what she wants.
“I get in the mirror and go, ’Baby daddy, baby daddy, baby daddy, baby daddy, baby daddy, baby daddy, child support, child support, child support, child support, child support.′ Basically, I say all the things I don’t want really fast to trick the universe into giving me what I do want,” she says.

You Have a Friend In Me’ Mo’Nique Jumps to Roseanne’s Defense Calls Controversial Tweet a ‘Mistake’
I want to know did the Monique defend The Talks Sheryl Underwood when she made that joke about natural hair? Because we all know Sheryl got drug on social media for that. Monique is such a hypocrite. She defends white people but she won’t defend comedians that look like her. Get a clue Monique Roseanne is a racist and has always been that way. Lovelyti goin’ to give her commentary on this. You know she’s about to go in . GET HER TI TI!!
Oscar-winning actress Mo’Nique went to bat for Roseanne Barr this week, urging folks not to give up on the embattled comedienne in the wake of her racist tweet.
Mo’nique’s comments came during an interview on KTLA’s Morning News on Friday, where she recalled the support she received from Barr early in her career when others refused to help her.
“I remember when I had the ‘Mo’Nique Show,’ and there was big, major Black superstar talent that had white representatives and they told their talent, …’That show is too Black and we really don’t want you to go on there,’” she told reporter Sam Rubin. ”
“But there was a white woman named Roseanne Barr that showed up for me,” she added. “…And they didn’t hear the conversation when the cameras weren’t rolling. … That woman was giving me some beautiful words.”
Mo’Nique, who’s faced her own struggles in Hollywood, called Barr her “sister in comedy” and said the controversial tweet that led to her show being cancelled was just a mistake.
“My sister made a mistake and she said something I know she wishes she could take back,” Mo’Nique said, adding that she wouldn’t put Barr on “the racist list.” “But what I would ask is we don’t throw her away.”
Barr’s namesake show was canceled almost immediately after the actress posted an outwardly racist tweet attacking former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett. Barr has issued several backhanded apologies since the controversy unfolded and begged ABC not to punish the entire show’s cast for her mistake.
The actress set the Internet abuzz last week with the emergence of a disturbing video of her shouting, “I thought the b—h was white!” in reference to her tweet about Jarrett. Her recent antics have done little to smooth things over. Last week, the network confirmed a ” “Roseanne” spin-off excluding Barr called “The Connors” will air this fall.

Trump’s Hollywood Walk Of Fame Star Has Been Obliterated
NOBODY LIKES YOU! Do you GAF? Yes and no.
A man vandalized President Donald Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame with a pickax on Wednesday, leaving only the star’s outline in the broken sidewalk. He later surrendered to police.
Witnesses told police a man carrying the tool in a guitar case attacked the star on Hollywood Boulevard around 3:30 a.m., according to NBC Los Angeles.

Witnesses told police a man carrying the tool in a guitar case attacked the star on Hollywood Boulevard around 3:30 a.m., according to NBC Los Angeles.
The vandal dropped the pickax at the scene, according to pictures taken by passersby. Soon afterward, the man surrendered to Los Angeles police. Details of the arrest weren’t immediately available.
Trump received the star in 2007, long before his presidency. He was the host of NBC’s “The Apprentice” at the time, but the Walk of Fame star honors his role as producer for his Miss Universe shows.
Trump’s star has been attacked before, but not quite so spectacularly. It was smashed by a man in 2016 shortly after the “Access Hollywood” recording of Trump bragging about sexual assault surfaced.
In that case, the vandal used a pickax and a sledgehammer. The attacker later pleaded no contest to one felony count of vandalism. The star was later restored.

#FlagrantFreddy: White Man Calls Police After Hard Foul in Pickup Basketball Game
So racist fragile white boy man named #flagrentfreddy couldn’t jump so his fragile racist white boy ass calls the police because he couldn’t stand to get knocked down during a scrimmage basketball game. WOW SMDH
In what might be the most egregious display of Trump’s American punkishness, which includes calling the cops on people doing the most to live their best lives, cops in Virginia were actually called by a grown, white man after another player reportedly knocked him to the floor with an “aggressive screen.” The man who called police has not been identified, but I will make up names for him throughout the story.
According to the New York Post, the man who has now been named #FlagrantFreddy by social media, was playing in a pickup game at an LA Fitness in Sterling, Va., when the evil black man wearing two arm sleeves reportedly laid a hard screen on Bjorn, who left the court and called the po-po.
“Today for the first time in my life … I experienced someone call the police because they got fouled hard in basketball,” the witness tweeted. “Everyone at the gym and dude in the black with hands folded falls from a hard pick. He gets up tells everyone he’s going to call the police and walks out leaving everyone in the gym confused.”

Shit this must have been a really hard foul! DAYUM SON!
The witness, told local station WTTG that he initially thought the Nordis, the white man, was joking but that was the witness’s first mistake.
“I thought he was being extra,” the witness, identified only as Aaron, told the station.
Aaron should know that in today’s America, white people call the police for anything. See, #SwimmingSheriffSusie, #PermitPatty and #CouponCarl.
Hans reportedly left the court after the Black Panther-esque screen and walked to the front desk where he called the police.
“When the cops came, he was like, ‘Why are you wasting my time?” Aaron told WTTG.
Unfortunately, video footage of the incident is not available as the gym’s basketball courts don’t have video surveillance. No one was recording the game at the time of the incident because it was a fucking pickup game of basketball. Other players watched as Abraham left the court and then continued playing.
Here’s actual video of the man returning to the court after he called the police. I don’t know where this man is from, but after you call the police for an “aggressive screen,” you generally have to leave the court or eat 1,300 hot wings without stopping or fight everyone in the gym to regain your manhood.

9ll IS NOT 411 CUSTOMER SERVICE HOTLINE! 9ll is for police when a true crime like robbery is committed. Fire or medical. I’m so thankful that these black men got to live that day.

Trevor Noah under fire as offensive joke about Aboriginal women resurfaces
Remember when Trevor Noah had Tomato Lozenge on his show and he treated her like a delicate flower and not like the trash racist she is? Well, Twitter never forgets and Twitter digs deep. This is what they have found since.
South African comedian Trevor Noah is facing heavy criticism after a video of a stand-up routine from 2013 where he made a joke about Australia’s Aboriginal women resurfaced online.
LaVonne Bobongie@_LaVonne_Well this is horrible. I’m surrounded by countless beautiful Aboriginal women @Trevornoah #boycotttrevornoahinoz https://youtu.be/rzrnPZNSoqw
Dr Anita Heiss✔@AnitaHeiss
I am so disgusted and appalled by the comments by @Trevornoah and his attempted humour that denigrates Aboriginal women I hope Australians boycott his shows in #Brisbane #Sydney #Melbourne #Perth #Australia That kind of ‘humour’ is not funny and does damage! #racismitstopswithme
Joe Williams – TEW@joewilliams_tewHey @Trevornoah, your comments about Aboriginal @IndigenousX in this clip are utterly unacceptable!

@joewilliams_tew you’re right. After visiting Australia’s Bunjilaka museum and learning about aboriginal history first hand I vowed never to make a joke like that again. And I haven’t. I’ll make sure the clip from 2013 is not promoted in any way.
Joe Williams – TEW@joewilliams_tewThe @Trevornoah clip has been taken down but here is a story on the incident. Still waiting for reply to see if he’ll let me take him to community for some cultural awareness & front and apologise to our staunch and beautifully caring women. Over to you brother @IndigenousX

Replying to @petstarrThat clip has now been taken down, so here’s the story on it. For someone who has made something of a career doing thoughtful comedy about issues of race, this is extra disappointing.https://thebrag.com/trevor-noah-controversial-remarks-indigenous-women/ …

Hit Musical Featuring Cotton-Picking White People Singing Slave Songs Closes Amid Protests
LMBFAO SOME Ignorant bigoted racists are so entertaining. Really?? Did they call each other Nigg[ER]? Did they have a whipping scene? I wonder why it was such a hit? I wonder why would any white production even attempt this type of musical. In this case this woman was just ignorant and did not think about the consequences of why she should not produce something like this. Her heart was in the right place but….
Live and learn I guess
The world’s biggest jazz festival was forced to end the run of one of its most popular shows after protesters objected to the musical that featured white people picking cotton while a white woman warbled organic, gluten-free, kale-wrapped negro spirituals. Ain’t that good news?
Scheduled for five shows, the musical SLĀV was such a surprise runaway hit at Canada’s Montreal Jazz Festival that producers of the festival added 11 additional shows due to overwhelming demand for the $60-90 tickets. Produced by acclaimed white man Robert Lepage, the theatrical extravaganza featured the dingo-like vocal stylings of Betty Bonifassi performing “many eras of black music including slave songs, work songs, railroad songs, field songs, prisoners’ songs, laments and lullabies.”

Produced by acclaimed white man Robert Lepage, the theatrical extravaganza featured the dingo-like vocal stylings of Betty Bonifassi performing “many eras of black music including slave songs, work songs, railroad songs, field songs, prisoners’ songs, laments and lullabies.”
As further proof that the gentrifying instinct of caucasity knows no bounds, a new theater…
After protesters showed up on opening night to instruct the mildewed marshmallow singing soulless versions of freedom songs where to follow the drinking gourd to, Bonifassi and Lepage took to Facebook to let the protesters know they ain’t gon’ let nobody turn them around, writing: “Do we have the right to tell these stories? Audience members will have the opportunity to decide after having seen the show.”
Well, it looks like they decided.
Reports say Mary could be seen weeping and apparently, no one even informed Martha that she shouldn’t moan. According to the New York Times, an audience member even held up a sign that said: “Is there nothing y’all won’t steal? White culture is theft.”
Even though the Montreal Jazz Festival had sold more than 8,000 tickets, the festival closed the show on Wednesday after only two performances. Organizers said they were “shaken” by the intensity of the response and decided to lay their burdens down by the riverside and study whiteness no more.
“We would like to apologize to those who were hurt,” festival producers said in a statement. “It was not our intention at all.”
As a descendant of enslaved people, I offer the following response to the Montreal Jazz Festival’s apology:
If you weren’t aware that stealing the most painful part of an entire group of a people’s past, whitewashing it and then allowing the people who benefitted from the historical mass kidnapping, rape and genocide to double back and profit from that theft could possibly be a bad thing, then the audacity of whiteness must be the most insipidly evil thing that ever existed on the face of the earth.
But then again, your entire festival is based on jazz, out of which you sucked the soul and pain so you can sell it to Birkenstock-wearing festival goers to writhe around as they bathe in the gifts stolen from the negro hearts and gentrified by crooked caucasian fingers who have historically plucked out our eyes because our blindness makes them feel like they can see better. Fuck your apology, white people.
And if you’re white but you’re not racist, this doesn’t apply to you. However, if you feel hurt by my previous statement…
I apologize. That was not my intention.
See how it feels?

BLAC CHYNA SPLITS WITH BOYFRIEND YBN ALMIGHTY JAY
Who thought this was gonna last? (I mean that sarcastically )
Blac Chyna and her significantly younger boyfriend, YBN Almighty Jay, are no more … at least according to YBN.
The 18-year-old just announced he and 30-year-old Chyna are no longer together after several months of dating. YBN doesn’t get into specifics, but it’s been a couple weeks since we’ve seen the two hanging out.
As we reported — the two started officially dating back in March — and enjoyed some pretty PG date nights … including one at the bowling alley.
