Yes, she is. I know she will be vindicated - if not her, her children will be. I pray it does not take that long. I pray that Christ Jesus gives her career and herself victory over the dark forces that have conspired against her. Having said that, Monique and hubby need to apologise to Tyler Perry for releasing audio of a provate conversation - without his knowledge or permission. That was wrong. I understand she needed to show the world she had been wronged but that was not a kind thing to do.
She is difficult. And personalizes and over thinks everything. In today’s time the only thing holding her back. Herself. This race nonsense needs to stop. There is nothing keeping poc from achieving anything they want.
Had she got the right amount of money for roles after she won the Oscar and got the right amount of money from Netflix, she wouldn’t be complaining. She wasn’t thinking about the little girls coming behind her when the checks was coming in.
@@brandenmcghee I agree, her whole rant campaign is about money. If her husband is so good at negotiating deals for her, why isn't she working in films now? His way of doing things has ruined her career but she will never admit that.
If she really felt that way she wouldn't be complaining and trying to sue Netflix over money. 500k ain't good enough money to her, she wants more. She's just saying all that stuff because she's not getting what she thinks shes worth, but it's not up to her to tell people what she wants to be paid. If they had felt she was worth more, they would have offered her more. She's not a big draw in comedy and her latest projects have proved that.
Mon inque , is too “individual “, too honest and down to earth... The lateral violence is real and white feminism Oprah and whoopi aspire to has a very set, limiting narrative, they approve of Meghan Markle, Reese Witherspoon, nicole Kidman because they serve a deepak chopra law of attraction NLP PROGRAMING GASLIGHTING NARRATIVE... Mom inque is too “real”, not in the fantasy privileged world of Tyler and Oprah... Oprah has empathy deficiency due to her now long term privilege and surrounding sycophants and enablers
@@umchinagirard1800 not really... Monique is a terrible business person. All talk no power. The problem with some of us black people we see white as evil. There is nothing wrong with all the people that you have called out. If monique wants to be successful she needs to play the game. You can't call out victim when you like to sit on the sidelines and complain. Every single person knows that Hollywood is a toxic place... but its were you want to go to be successful or you could do what the indie artists do... Tyler and Oprah and Whoopi have told her what they did from their experiences. She rejects the advice but then complains about it. How is she expecting this to end? They are going to change their minds and suddenly give her money. You either play their game and win or start your own thing and be successful. For every complaining Monique there are Viola Davis or Octavia Spencer or Wanda Sykes who are making their own path. All i see is a complaining woman with no vision.
Monique didn't allow those monsters to separate her from her husband. That's the first thing abusers and abusive systems do, separate people from a supportive, strong support group.
I don't think they want to separate them as husband and wife. It's just that he can only take her so far. I feel that was all Whoopi was trying to tell her. It's no different than an Olympian hiring a new trainer after high school or college. It's no different than a client hiring the BEST lawyer they can hire. It's called making a business decision. It's not personal. And they have intertwined their personal lives with business. It never mixes. That's why counselors who have their own marriage problems don't counsel themselves...
Monique needs to move on she did what she had to do she's not going to be the first person who was blackballed in Hollywood God has made another outlet for her to make money through UA-cam there are other topics to talk about so just get over it! Her husband and her need to do is open up some kind of business for people who had this kind of problem turn something negative into something positive! I understand she's hurt who haven't lost their job who haven't got fired because of the color of your skin what black person have not ran into another black person because they're in the position treat them like crap it happens all the time ! But she like a family member still talkin about something that happened to them and 1992 and we in 2020 get over it
@@CHILDPLEASE.6466 I beg to differ and I 100% disagree. If anyone is willing to pay $500,000.00 to make this go away and that is declined, it not just about the money. Please let that sink in. While it's sinking in...Integrity has to matter otherwise we, get nothing because capitalism wins when we become bought as it (white folks) know they can continues business as usual because they know that massar has a "Fiddler" available that can influence the outcome for massar's best interest. This is much bigger than this! If you get it? If not, then you too are part of the ongoing problem. Until we work through and move forward which includes doing the hard work and NOT giving in to capitalism which is the root of this problem, we have nothing but superficial, assimilationist, non-substance "progress". So spare me and mine with that "get over it" bullshit. Thank you very kindly.
Maybe Monique's legacy is not what we think. Yes she is a dynamic actress and deserves Oscars. But what if that is not her purpose here on earth. Maybe her legacy is shining light on the injustices African American actors/actresses have to go through. Maybe her legacy is to break the chains that bind minority actors/ actresses in Hollywood. She seems strong, happy, solidified on her platform and focused. Maybe she has a different purpose in this life that is a much bigger picture than being a Hollywood star.
Hi Smith! I would love if the right hands and eyes will forward this to her. This is well-stated. Their is a difference between careers and your purpose.
@@QueenAnitaSoul1 Whoopi mentioned to her viewers what she told Mo'Nique. Also at the time, Mo'Nique never once said that Whoopi told her to divorce her husband. At the time Mo'Nique said that Whoopi told her that Sidney may be the problem as her manager (not as her husband). Big difference.

And that’s true, all money not good money, but really if I was a star in a movie, I would try and promote it rather or not if I was getting paid for it or not. She’s really fucking up her career being with that man she’s calling daddy , that shit is so stupid

I love Monique! You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything. Stand in your truth Mo. Keep supporting your wife Sidney. Thank you for the interview Claudia.
@@rondaallen7211 How? Please explain that to me. Other black entertainers are speaking out, they are just not doing things the way she did them. And with some, people have come to their aid and spoke up for them in some instances so they would get paid more money. The way Monique is going about things, is not going to get her nothing. As you can see, the people whose attention she is trying to get are not paying her any attention and they are not supporting her. So who is it that going to benefit from the way she has went about doing things? If anything they are learning a lesson in what not to do.
Monique, you have the Power within you, no one can blacklist you, they can do what they did, as you see it. Buuuuuttt, Monique you can do more for you and yours, than they could ever do. I Love you, and have always been a fan. You are great, and wonderful, do it for you. I know you can.
One thing about Monique, her story has never changed. She’s too talented for what has happened to her. I saw her in the Bessie movie playing Ma Rainey and i personally feel like she stole the movie as she always does. She really could be like a viola Davis type of actress if given the opportunity.
I believe I she sabotages her opportunities bcz of her mouth. She doesn’t have enough money to go against conglomerates like Oprah & Tyler. She’s very aggressive (passionate) when she speaks. One thing I pay attention to folks with money don’t speak negatively against others. She’s trying to change the narrative but doesn’t have the power. Sidney looks sweet as pie! How you doin!
ABSOLUTELY 💯 💯 💯 💯 ABSOLUTELY TRUE EVERY WORD U WROTE FAM!!! Bc Mo has a gift from the Gods! She has a natural talent from comedy acting hosting everything she is what they call a triple threat but for her there's no # she jus a problem out here for the others bc they can't get touch or ding her talent & skills!!!
Keep your money just clear my name. That's how you know it was never about the money. It's a shame Tyler Perry tried to pay her to just shut up. Listening to her talk about the Whoopi incident really hurt my heart. "Cause I'm the little girl comming behind you."

They have a choice just as she had a choice, not to work in that industry. She knew these things existed in the industry going in. It not a new revelation to her.
Great interview Claudia. People will look back in decades to come and realise that Monique was right. The problem is heros are never celebrated when they are here...
Hollywood is just mad because she wouldn't kiss the ring or their butts. Her career has suffered since the movie Precious, which is sad because Monique is such a talent. smh
No, she mad cuz, Hollywood won't put up with her and her husband's bullshit. I've heard too many stories from friends in the biz. Whoopi gave her some great advice...her man is bringing her down. She better get wise quick...she's not getting any younger and we know how Hollywood treats its Actresses, especially the Black ones.
Its crazy ppl that the average person has to deal with in the regular world working regular jobs...CAN U IMAGINE WHAT ITS LIKE DEALING WITH POWERFUL HOLLYWOOD PPL WHO CAN CONTROL UR CAREER AND MAKE U A STAR OR MAKE U AN UBER DRIVER
You don’t enter any industry if you are not willing to follow at least certain industry rules to some extent. Monique has been around long enough to know how things work.
@Roderick McKinney Monique has busted her butt to get where she is, so miss with that bull. Do you work in the industry? If not, take that arrogant attitude out of your comment and do better.
Every time I hear this or see an interview about this I am heartbroken. It’s such a tragedy this happened to her but she’s NOT the first. She’s just the FIRST to speak out about it. Terrible. But I am honestly proud of Mo and Sidney for taking a stance and fighting for what is right. Keep speaking Sista.
They're ALLL SELLOUTS make no mistake. There are no moral righteous people in that world. You can't be and have the success she's had. She just thought she was more than what she was in HOLLYWOOD. And to turn down 500 thousand? And the bigger question is why would Tyler perry, which is probably the MOST destructive force EVER to black people in hollywood, even offer her that at all? It's a lot of spaces between the words of this storyline.
What is done in the dark, always comes to light. I admire someone who goes against the grain rather than going along with the crowd. Too many people will compromise their morals and values for money and to fit in.

I love my wife always stand up for her and support her, but I never interfere in her career, even when I'm absolutely angry with those in it.

Thank god all women don't have one of these kind of men, they would all be ruined. *I know some will say he was her manager, but he shouldn't of been. That's a conflict of interest and has always caused issues in the career of a mate. Plus he don't understand the business like she does, he was and is "green".
She tried to help or do a service for Lee Daniels ($50,000 isn’t shit for her performance in Precious), and look what he did to her. And Tyler Perry and Oprah could have cleared her name too. I wouldn’t let it go myself knowing that wealth is being stolen from my children.

Uhmmm how much did Ice Cube pay John Witherspoon and Chris Tucker for their roles in the cult classic Friday? She won an actual Oscar how come her manager failed to turn that 50k into a milli?
precious started out as a small low budget independent film. No one knew it would become larger than life. I don't think anyone in the film got paid a lot. When actors are in independent films they usually do it because they love the the script. Keanu reeves does independent films and he knows he's not gonna get paid like he's playing John Wick or the matrix The money isn't there.

They did it to the late Eartha Kitt decades ago. I hope people can see how unimaginably evil the people that run showbiz are. The motto of showbiz is "The Show Must Go On" and you bet they'll do anything in their power to make it happen.
Damn first people say let the man lead she does and she’s punished. I’ve been following Monique for a very long time. Her husband has been her best friend for years before they got married. I don’t see or believe he’s jealous of his wife.
Right, black people need to stop going for the cheese in the mouse trap, do you really think that brother is about the fame and money, look, anyone who has dealt with them devils in hollywood, would rather have a normal simple life,which offer the benefits of peace, a decent night if sleep, a peace and acceptance of God for not selling your soul to the devil, need I say more?
Man leads is a social construct by patriarchy. It not biblical. The passage that support male leadership in the households few lines down shows how the woman leadership is vital as well. God preachings togetherness in the household that’s why submission (to each other based on word is important . Leadership doesn’t mean men are in control and that what most men see it as. It’s called Vanity what most men lead in. If men truly seen their wives as equals (helpmate) women leadership wouldn’t be a problem. You become one aka togetherness not i am Man you are woman so know your place. It violates the Free Will God has given to humans.
As a black man, I have watched those two for years. They are a blessed couple{ power couple}. It's a beautiful thing to watch. Y'all are awesome. Much Love
Monique I am so proud of you for taking a stand for what’s right ...and I was at your comedy show when you call out every person that hurt you ...I felt your pain .❤️❤️❤️
So Hollywood fears Sidney?? First, Monique has NEVER been a part of Hollywood, ONLY BlackHollywood! 'The Parkers" on CW or UPN; her talk show was BET; 'Precious' was exec produced by Oprah, TylerP, directed by Lee Daniels. Her other movie projects were ALL BlackHollywood. Why would a multi-billion dollar industry fear Sidney, the manager for 1 client, his wife? The problem, Sidney tries to prove his worth to Monique by making dumb, outrageous requests in negotiations he is NOT qualified to be in! So she has nothing now..no movie or TV projects, she owns no income generating content, she's not doing stand-up comedy...and your conclusion, Sidney is brilliant??
He comes across as a very smart man, HOWEVER, that doesn't mean he is equipped to be an EFFECTIVE manager. Everyone has their lane. This may not be his. I've been a great driver for 40 plus years. That doesn't mean I should drive a bus if I'm not equipped to....
@freedom300 they too damn lazy to put in the leg work. they want everything to be handled to them. people is getting damn tire of her the same damn story.
Sidney has no job outside of "managing" Mo'nique! He used to live with Mo'nique and her last husband because he had nowhere to stay! Now that's a bum for real!
What Monique isn't telling us is the box office money she gets and the residual checks she will get.....The more she promotes her movie the more money she would have made. I hate it when people try to come off as victims and expect everyone to bend over backwards for them yet they refuse to bend forward for anyone.
Two comments. First off this Claudia lady is beautiful and has amazing interview skills. Second I wish Monique and Katt Williams would go on tour together and call it the "Black Ball Tour "

@@brittney5563, let's see we we can have an intelligent conversation without the name calling. If you've never had a man love you enough to stand by you, then it's hard to understand.
The irony of it all Monique was right the whole time and never changed her story. If you look at her last interview she did on UA-cam she spoke on the closed door meeting of the sisters of Hollywood (let’s say icons who are still a major deal in the industry) and Oprah Monique schooled Oprah and she said those women in that room AGREED with Monique.....so you would think black Hollywood would change the narrative the ride the system to get along when you have numerous entertainers who was abused and blackballed by the same treatment were now seeing today. This isn’t new....most of our entertainers are slaved by that system and if we don’t change it....more people trying to come into that system will continue to be abused and used up and thrown away and possibly dying trying to stay famous in that evil Hollywood system
They hate black women having a strong black man by their side, and quiet honestly the mainstream hate strong black families. God Bless you and Sidney!! Continue to stand in your truth.
Monique is so right. She named several female celebrities that died alone, with no family, and in despair. Recently, I watched a documentary on the late Dorothy Dandridge. Sadly, she died exactly that way. Monique chose her husband and children over Hollywood. She definitely made the right choice. All that glitters ain't gold.
I respect her for choosing her family over, Hollywood but I don't think she has genuinely let iy go. Otherwise 4 years later, we wouldn't still be hearing this same story over and over and over again. Put this to rest and move on in your peace and happiness....
@@f-luva-luva I agree. If she chose family. Go on with your life and leave all this stuff alone, but she hasn't. Some how she believes that what she's doing is going to make a difference. But its not. And that's already obvious. Now she's only doing podcast shows which are like gossip columns. The people interviewing her are not famous but people who need stories like hers to get new subscribers and attention.
she thinks she will make a change for those to come after her.. as Whoopi did not ..Aunty Mo' thinks she will help in some sort of way n she will ! even if it's only to one person, one future exc, one future comedian, one producer...u get me!?. Granny doesn't know everything but Granny knows she's on the right track as long as her heart and intentions stay pure she'll always have her integrity.
Imagine in a world where Whoopi tells Tom Hanks to divorce his wife for his career. Monique would be really stupid if she was to cut off her(other half). #MakeBlackMarraigeGreatAgain
But its not Monique..its US. Why cant they accept US as we are..without US having to conform to their level of acceptability in order to achieve success.
This is just Great! I mean my ex fiancé/ idiot asked for his ring back after our break up. I looked him eye to eye and said for the 12 years I gave to you stayed with you , even prayed with you no charge, allowed you to even play me no charge,.

@@dominiquesmith8057 they were treated very bad, how could they move on against the popularity??? It's like a team of people feel the same and one person feel different, then they wrong. It's not fair to treat them bad like that
She's talked about repeatedly turning a cheeck regarding him cheating, and she calls him Daddy in a weird way..... as long as they're happy, great. But I can't call them role models.
She agreed to 50K and ahe gets residual checks from the movie. She agreed to that so nobody forced her to take that so I find it kind of backhanded for her to say that when she agreed to that nobody put a gun to her head and then on top of that she didn’t even want to do press like she thought she was better than everybody else because she has an Axademy award everybody else had too. Will Smith has to press but not Monique right?!
@@Katlady001 She didn't have the Academy Award at that time. She's come out and said she's made about a total of 65k for the movie including residuals. She's not complaining about the 50k rather she contractually fulfilled her press obligations at that time. What LionsGate did is comparable to a job asking you to fly overseas and work, they'll cover the plane ticket and airfare, expect you to work as normal without paying you.
Personally I love my husband too much to involve him as a manager. It just ruins the relationship when you mix business with pleasure. Probably have him look over things without being the manager. Consult with him if needed but not be a manager
But both are saying things separately and its not blowing anything. Some of the stuff Jaquar is saying is based on past gossip people already knew about or people she doesn't even know personally. At least Monique had personal experiences with the people she's talking about
*It’s so nice that they were allowed to just SPEAK without interrupting. This was an excellent interview. Also, Cube didn’t speak with the President but he did speak with someone on his team. He did what was right though. He did what is mature. He spoke as a voice for the black community.*
I agree with one of the comments "One thing about Mo"Nique her story has NOT change." I would say, the same for her husband. He appears very sincere, and has a great knowledge and understanding of the business. I think it was bold and very smart for Claudia to do this interview. Moreover, actually a lot stuff Mo'Nique talk about back when all this first started has come to light, as we all know. I never knew who Claudia was, nevertheless, I like her interviewing skills, I like her vibe. Blessings to you all.
Monique started telling her truth and it got her black balled in Hollywood. When that happens, your friends are few to none... Now, you have to figure out how you will continue to make a living...
I really hate that she’s going through this because she’s so talented but what’s the end game here....if any of us trash our companies we’ll be penalized 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
Reality is many of the ppl that complain about Hollyweird why do they choose to linger in the toxicity....???use the money they make and move forward to explore other goals....ppl move forward wen they are fired with nothing so they can do the same
I really like Monique & Sidney but make no mistake she is not poor. That being said, she should still be able to participate in her craft and make as much money as others in the industry with the same talent and recognition as she. I feel bothered by her situation and I hope that she starts getting good positive roles.
I'm a white man and proud to see people to stand up like Mo'que and Sidney. These are strong black people that has a mind of their own and I'm glad to see this happening.
I'm seeing in the comments that folks think Monique and her husband should "let it go", however unless you personally know what it's like to attempted to have your character diminished, then you will never understand where they are coming from. Character traits are those adjectives that describes who you are as a person and to have that diminished, will ruin your career as well as your life.
The people they are talking about are not saying anything about them publicly. Monique and sidney are the ones doing all the mud slinging. These people are not even responding to them so everybody is only going by what they are saying. Nobody else is saying anything but them. So they are the ones that are trying to assassinate the character of people.
They are only getting back lash from people in general because they are doing all that talking on line. But Whoopi goldberg, Tyler Perry ( who tried to talk to her in private and she put their conversation out) Oprah, Lee Daniels, will packer (said he refused to comment about her) are not saying anything publicly about her. She tried to call them out and provoke them to respond to her, but none of them have. . So all the talk is coming from her and all the criticism shes getting is coming from people on social media who are reading that stuff she's saying. It's not coming from any of them.
@@cbeyond1957 the people that you named may not be saying anything publicly where the average person, such as you and I, can hear them, but apparently they’re saying or have said a lot in the world of Hollywood. On the other hand, even if they aren’t or haven’t, their very silence speaks volumes, too. That’s just my opinion. 🤷🏾♀️
Monique is brilliant, bold, and blessed despite the nefarious attempts made against her by those who have sold out. I respect Monique more than those aforementioned because she stands for what is right while others sell out and blacklist their souls. Monique should start her own platform i.e. podcasts, virtual talk shows, etc. I will support her.
Why is Monique still not being heard?! Im tired of her repeating herself. She needs to be heard and action needs to be taken seriously. Time is ticking!
im happy that claudia has a successful show and im happy she's interviewing the legend Monique along with her incredible husband. Monique nor her husband deserve the treatment they have received the industry and i hope things continue to climb for them both.

Monique did a radio interview for my college radio station. She was so kind and generous to us hosting the show. This woman so down to earth. I definitely believe her about TP and Oprah.
If you're reading this I know its hard right now I may not know you but I'm praying for you continue to have faith and patience please dont give up on GOD because he won’t give up on you...Amen🇧🇸 🙏🏾 2020 Beyond By Marcia.
I have so much respect for MoNique for standing firm and living the integrity most people only give lip service to. With everything she has been through she still shows love for those who abandoned, mistreated and lied about her. Now some of them are apologizing because they've now going through rough periods. She has even stood by some of them during their rough periods under the magnifying glass of public opinion.
I’m white and I have utmost respect for Monique. Hadn’t heard of her or watched her shows until she stood up for herself. And now I’m on UA-cam watching anything I can find :)
Replaying the victim narrative is never empowering. It's like holding on to resentment and anger. Drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die. Too talented for this.
I've been paying attention to Monique's interviews and I've learned that Monique's respect to her husband is so humbling. Monique is a good example of how a woman should be as a partner and the husband also respect her in the same regard. I was taken aback when she apologized for interrupting Sidney of which she has done in most of her interviews...it's humbling. She doesn't let her success or ego overpower Sidney and doesn't interrupt or talk over him even though she's a star. It's no surprise they make a good team because they have mastered basic skills needed in a marriage, respect, communication and loyalty. I just had to acknowledge that. Hollywood can take away her spotlight but her husband/marriage is all she needs.
I love Monique! I never tire of hearing her and Sydney telling their truth - their stories have never changed. People fear the strong black woman; what do you think they feel about that strong black woman who has her black man fighting with her?
I can’t imagine the pain she felt hearing ppl Tell her to leave her husband who helped her more than anyone.... especially a rare good helpful black man.
But Whoopi of all persons to tell that her husband/manager was a liability and should be discarded. Perhaps she was a bit envious of Mo since she didn't have a strong black man by her side fighting for her. 😏😏
@@mariastewart8810 nobody was telling her to leave her husband, she was told to hire a manager who is not her husband. He maybe the best husband in the world, but he probably was the worst manager for Monique, who knows. Sometimes it is wise to separate family from the business. She should have looked for producers who were willing to work with her manager, instead of complaining for whole decade.
So the beef is that OW, TP and LD have not publicly come forward to say what's been said in private? I'm all for standing for what you believe in. The issue seems that this is costing her emotional peace more than the financial part. I can feel it as she speaks now and in the past. Our energy does not lie. When we no longer allow the actions of others to affect us, that is where our true POWER is.
Scapegoating Dysfunctional Bitchy narcissistic people Lateral violence is a term that describes the way people in positions of powerlessness, covertly or overtly direct their dissatisfaction inward toward each other, toward themselves, and toward those less powerful than themselves. Victims of bullying and lateral violence feel depressed and alone.
I'm extremely critical and skeptical of so many things, including Monique when I first heard of this so many years ago. But I'm not critical for critics sake. I need to be in order to then fully attempt to break down my own bias and debunk my own beliefs on a topic. With Monique's situation, it didn't take very long for me to see just how right she was. Monique is a better, wiser leader than 99% of "leaders" validated by the masses. Just look at what all of her elders have told her. They have tried to lead her astray, to devalue herself and compromise her beliefs. I pray that her and her husband are seeing that you don't need to dance with these devils at all. In fact, there's a spiritual clamoring for exactly what they're bringing to the table. Really and truly, I have so much respect for her as a human being.
Thats exactly the problem, these women giving their unemployed husbands a job that they are not qualified for. Many people told her that her husband was incompetent. You still need to play the game or leave the game.
For the record... Whoopi never told Monique to leave her marriage. 😂 Whoopi told Monique that ppl don’t like her husband, and her husband was having a negative impact on her career. (Fact) Whoopi said he should be fired as her manager. Whoopi is not the first person to say this. No one in Monique’s life likes Sydney. No one. Not even her oldest son. If my friend had a man in her life that fractures several important relationships, and runs her career into the ground...i would warn her to look at the common denominator too. 😒 wouldn’t you?😑 Whoopi did nothing wrong.
@@marciarandolph9659 No one likes Sydney but Monique. He is controlling, emotionally abusive, and a misogynist. Sydney is the type of man who thinks women should predicate their womanhood on having a husband, and if the woman doesn’t have a husband, then she has failed, or has no value. You can tell by how he (and Monique) insult women who don’t have husband or try to use Whoopi & Oprah being unmarried as a “read”. Example; “all the women telling me to fire my husband don’t have one...” 😒 So? 😩😂 As if both Oprah & Whoopi can’t go get a bum ass nigga like Sydney to marry them, and pay all his bills.😂 Husbands like Sydney are NOT a prize or an accomplishment. Husbands like Sydney are not hard to find! 🙄 Husbands like Barack Obama, Lebron James, etc. Those are alpha male, masculine husbands who are providers and LOVED by their wives friends,families and colleagues. That’s a prize. This Nikka BOZO. 🤡
It's possible that Sydney loves the position he placed Monique in. There are some men who are quite insecure when their spouses or significant others out-earn them and are more visible than they are. I think Sydney doesn't really want Monique to succeed. He probably delights in the difficulty he's created for her. I don't see a supportive spouse in Sydney. I see an insecure, manipulative, puppet master.

@@jesco6952 they just wouldn’t consider enough to respect who wanted to speak first, someone would’ve just stepped in most times the guy would take the lead. Monique is Incredibly respectful and so is her husband
If nothing else, Monique is honest.
Yes, she is. I know she will be vindicated - if not her, her children will be. I pray it does not take that long. I pray that Christ Jesus gives her career and herself victory over the dark forces that have conspired against her. Having said that, Monique and hubby need to apologise to Tyler Perry for releasing audio of a provate conversation - without his knowledge or permission. That was wrong. I understand she needed to show the world she had been wronged but that was not a kind thing to do.
She is difficult. And personalizes and over thinks everything. In today’s time the only thing holding her back. Herself. This race nonsense needs to stop. There is nothing keeping poc from achieving anything they want.
That's right Mo'nique. All money, ain't good money and everything that glitters, ain't gold.

💯💯TRUTH
Had she got the right amount of money for roles after she won the Oscar and got the right amount of money from Netflix, she wouldn’t be complaining. She wasn’t thinking about the little girls coming behind her when the checks was coming in.

I agree, her whole rant campaign is about money. If her husband is so good at negotiating deals for her, why isn't she working in films now? His way of doing things has ruined her career but she will never admit that.
If she really felt that way she wouldn't be complaining and trying to sue Netflix over money. 500k ain't good enough money to her, she wants more. She's just saying all that stuff because she's not getting what she thinks shes worth, but it's not up to her to tell people what she wants to be paid. If they had felt she was worth more, they would have offered her more. She's not a big draw in comedy and her latest projects have proved that.
Monique has integrity and she has a Black man supporting her. Not what they want to see. Stay true to yourself and your purpose Monique.
Amen and amen.
Love that 🥰
Yep divide and conquer is what they want to accomplish
Mon inque , is too “individual “, too honest and down to earth... The lateral violence is real and white feminism Oprah and whoopi aspire to has a very set, limiting narrative, they approve of Meghan Markle, Reese Witherspoon, nicole Kidman because they serve a deepak chopra law of attraction NLP PROGRAMING GASLIGHTING NARRATIVE... Mom inque is too “real”, not in the fantasy privileged world of Tyler and Oprah... Oprah has empathy deficiency due to her now long term privilege and surrounding sycophants and enablers
@@umchinagirard1800 not really... Monique is a terrible business person. All talk no power. The problem with some of us black people we see white as evil. There is nothing wrong with all the people that you have called out. If monique wants to be successful she needs to play the game. You can't call out victim when you like to sit on the sidelines and complain.
Every single person knows that Hollywood is a toxic place... but its were you want to go to be successful or you could do what the indie artists do... Tyler and Oprah and Whoopi have told her what they did from their experiences. She rejects the advice but then complains about it.
How is she expecting this to end? They are going to change their minds and suddenly give her money.
You either play their game and win or start your own thing and be successful.
For every complaining Monique there are Viola Davis or Octavia Spencer or Wanda Sykes who are making their own path.
All i see is a complaining woman with no vision.
Monique didn't allow those monsters to separate her from her husband. That's the first thing abusers and abusive systems do, separate people from a supportive, strong support group.
Great point.
Exactly! The want you alone !
I don't think they want to separate them as husband and wife. It's just that he can only take her so far. I feel that was all Whoopi was trying to tell her. It's no different than an Olympian hiring a new trainer after high school or college. It's no different than a client hiring the BEST lawyer they can hire. It's called making a business decision. It's not personal. And they have intertwined their personal lives with business. It never mixes. That's why counselors who have their own marriage problems don't counsel themselves...
Yes!!
Exactly! It just reminds me of all that black women's divestment push. Nothing about it sat right with my soul.
The saying goes: If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.
That Husband is on! Keep going!
She took a stand and it cost her everything.
Monique needs to move on she did what she had to do she's not going to be the first person who was blackballed in Hollywood God has made another outlet for her to make money through UA-cam there are other topics to talk about so just get over it! Her husband and her need to do is open up some kind of business for people who had this kind of problem turn something negative into something positive! I understand she's hurt who haven't lost their job who haven't got fired because of the color of your skin what black person have not ran into another black person because they're in the position treat them like crap it happens all the time ! But she like a family member still talkin about something that happened to them and 1992 and we in 2020 get over it
Mom told me this early.
@@CHILDPLEASE.6466 I beg to differ and I 100% disagree. If anyone is willing to pay $500,000.00 to make this go away and that is declined, it not just about the money. Please let that sink in. While it's sinking in...Integrity has to matter otherwise we, get nothing because capitalism wins when we become bought as it (white folks) know they can continues business as usual because they know that massar has a "Fiddler" available that can influence the outcome for massar's best interest. This is much bigger than this! If you get it? If not, then you too are part of the ongoing problem. Until we work through and move forward which includes doing the hard work and NOT giving in to capitalism which is the root of this problem, we have nothing but superficial, assimilationist, non-substance "progress". So spare me and mine with that "get over it" bullshit. Thank you very kindly.
Maybe Monique's legacy is not what we think. Yes she is a dynamic actress and deserves Oscars. But what if that is not her purpose here on earth. Maybe her legacy is shining light on the injustices African American actors/actresses have to go through. Maybe her legacy is to break the chains that bind minority actors/ actresses in Hollywood. She seems strong, happy, solidified on her platform and focused. Maybe she has a different purpose in this life that is a much bigger picture than being a Hollywood star.
excellent comment
This is a very interesting, and for me, a very fresh look at this situation. While watching this I totally get it.
Hi Smith! I would love if the right hands and eyes will forward this to her. This is well-stated. Their is a difference between careers and your purpose.
Best comment ever‼
Yes. It dont switch from African Americans to minorities. Nobody is standing for her in these so called minority groups. We are all we got.
Legally Monique is right, that is why no one pursued any litigation against her.
Her career is over, she has nothing left but do this online interviews.
No movies, no tv shows, no comedy tours no nothing.

How? Please explain that to me.
Other black entertainers are speaking out, they are just not doing things the way she did them. And with some, people have come to their aid and spoke up for them in some instances so they would get paid more money. The way Monique is going about things, is not going to get her nothing. As you can see, the people whose attention she is trying to get are not paying her any attention and they are not supporting her. So who is it that going to benefit from the way she has went about doing things? If anything they are learning a lesson in what not to do.
Monique, you have the Power within you, no one can blacklist you, they can do what they did, as you see it. Buuuuuttt, Monique you can do more for you and yours, than they could ever do. I Love you, and have always been a fan. You are great, and wonderful, do it for you. I know you can.

One thing about Monique, her story has never changed. She’s too talented for what has happened to her. I saw her in the Bessie movie playing Ma Rainey and i personally feel like she stole the movie as she always does. She really could be like a viola Davis type of actress if given the opportunity.
I believe I she sabotages her opportunities bcz of her mouth. She doesn’t have enough money to go against conglomerates like Oprah & Tyler. She’s very aggressive (passionate) when she speaks. One thing I pay attention to folks with money don’t speak negatively against others. She’s trying to change the narrative but doesn’t have the power.
Sidney looks sweet as pie! How you doin!
Stories only change when a person telling a lie
ABSOLUTELY 💯 💯 💯 💯 ABSOLUTELY TRUE EVERY WORD U WROTE FAM!!! Bc Mo has a gift from the Gods! She has a natural talent from comedy acting hosting everything she is what they call a triple threat but for her there's no # she jus a problem out here for the others bc they can't get touch or ding her talent & skills!!!
Keep your money just clear my name. That's how you know it was never about the money. It's a shame Tyler Perry tried to pay her to just shut up. Listening to her talk about the Whoopi incident really hurt my heart. "Cause I'm the little girl comming behind you."

Every time I hear this or see an interview about this I am heartbroken. It’s such a tragedy this happened to her but she’s NOT the first. She’s just the FIRST to speak out about it. Terrible.

And to turn down 500 thousand? And the bigger question is why would Tyler perry, which is probably the MOST destructive force EVER to black people in hollywood, even offer her that at all? It's a lot of spaces between the words of this storyline.
I see why they black balled Mo she's one smart black woman whose not gonna let anybody in this business sctew her around.

Keanu reeves does independent films and he knows he's not gonna get paid like he's playing John Wick or the matrix The money isn't there.
We have seen them do that to black female Entertainers
Short but profound statement!
Like see told Steve Harvey, he choose money over integrity.

They did it to the late Eartha Kitt decades ago. I hope people can see how unimaginably evil the people that run showbiz are. The motto of showbiz is "The Show Must Go On" and you bet they'll do anything in their power to make it happen.
Damn first people say let the man lead she does and she’s punished. I’ve been following Monique for a very long time. Her husband has been her best friend for years before they got married. I don’t see or believe he’s jealous of his wife.
no one is paying to see him, ppl want to hear from her.... we understand supporting your wife, but come on
Right, black people need to stop going for the cheese in the mouse trap, do you really think that brother is about the fame and money, look, anyone who has dealt with them devils in hollywood, would rather have a normal simple life,which offer the benefits of peace, a decent night if sleep, a peace and acceptance of God for not selling your soul to the devil, need I say more?
Man leads is a social construct by patriarchy. It not biblical. The passage that support male leadership in the households few lines down shows how the woman leadership is vital as well. God preachings togetherness in the household that’s why submission (to each other based on word is important . Leadership doesn’t mean men are in control and that what most men see it as. It’s called Vanity what most men lead in. If men truly seen their wives as equals (helpmate) women leadership wouldn’t be a problem. You become one aka togetherness not i am Man you are woman so know your place. It violates the Free Will God has given to humans.
EXACTLY!
@@2KGrind09 You sound stupid, he wasn't "seen" dude just did was husbands do and they hated it...smh

Monique I am so proud of you for taking a stand for what’s right ...and I was at your comedy show when you call out every person that hurt you ...I felt your pain .❤️❤️❤️
I'm only 5 minutes in and this is the best interview Monique and her husband have done so far. Claudia Jordan is a fantastic interviewer/host
Agree!
THANK YOUOUUUUUUU!
I agree. Claudia asks great questions and it shows she does her homework. Her delivery is good too. Go Claudia!
Sidney is a brilliant man. Really. I can see why Hollywood would fear the both of them but especially him. His brilliance makes him no push over.
So Hollywood fears Sidney?? First, Monique has NEVER been a part of Hollywood, ONLY BlackHollywood! 'The Parkers" on CW or UPN; her talk show was BET; 'Precious' was exec produced by Oprah, TylerP, directed by Lee Daniels. Her other movie projects were ALL BlackHollywood.
Why would a multi-billion dollar industry fear Sidney, the manager for 1 client, his wife? The problem, Sidney tries to prove his worth to Monique by making dumb, outrageous requests in negotiations he is NOT qualified to be in! So she has nothing now..no movie or TV projects, she owns no income generating content, she's not doing stand-up comedy...and your conclusion, Sidney is brilliant??
He comes across as a very smart man, HOWEVER, that doesn't mean he is equipped to be an EFFECTIVE manager. Everyone has their lane. This may not be his. I've been a great driver for 40 plus years. That doesn't mean I should drive a bus if I'm not equipped to....
@freedom300 they too damn lazy to put in the leg work. they want everything to be handled to them. people is getting damn tire of her the same damn story.
Sidney has no job outside of "managing" Mo'nique! He used to live with Mo'nique and her last husband because he had nowhere to stay! Now that's a bum for real!
@@tonym1323
You are right on that. And don't leave out that none of these were multi-million dollar projects.
Its disappointing Mo only got 50k for her amazing performance in Precious.
She agreed to it.
What Monique isn't telling us is the box office money she gets and the residual checks she will get.....The more she promotes her movie the more money she would have made. I hate it when people try to come off as victims and expect everyone to bend over backwards for them yet they refuse to bend forward for anyone.
At some point, she has to move on.

Nothing, but love for you and yours Monique. You are a great example of a sister. Be well.
"you can't fight the system" is a common quote but the system only gets changed when people fight it. Thank God for the courageous people that do.
The industry is very DANGEROUS to our existence in the business.
Yet people want to be part of it 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
Yes it is.
The irony of it all Monique was right the whole time and never changed her story. If you look at her last interview she did on UA-cam she spoke on the closed door meeting of the sisters of Hollywood (let’s say icons who are still a major deal in the industry) and Oprah Monique schooled Oprah and she said those women in that room AGREED with Monique.....so you would think black Hollywood would change the narrative the ride the system to get along when you have numerous entertainers who was abused and blackballed by the same treatment were now seeing today. This isn’t new....most of our entertainers are slaved by that system and if we don’t change it....more people trying to come into that system will continue to be abused and used up and thrown away and possibly dying trying to stay famous in that evil Hollywood system
It is
Sure is!!! Go to my page to watch Krayzie bone read the secret Hollywood letter to confirm what u just said. It's a sick n twisted place!!
They hate black women having a strong black man by their side, and quiet honestly the mainstream hate strong black families. God Bless you and Sidney!! Continue to stand in your truth.
They hate "black" period!
Please..... no one gives a shit
This is epic bc new and young artists need to hear this truth!!! So thank you Monique & Hubby and Claudia for the interview💖💖💖
Monique is so right. She named several female celebrities that died alone, with no family, and in despair. Recently, I watched a documentary on the late Dorothy Dandridge. Sadly, she died exactly that way. Monique chose her husband and children over Hollywood. She definitely made the right choice. All that glitters ain't gold.
I respect her for choosing her family over, Hollywood but I don't think she has genuinely let iy go. Otherwise 4 years later, we wouldn't still be hearing this same story over and over and over again. Put this to rest and move on in your peace and happiness....
@@f-luva-luva
I agree. If she chose family. Go on with your life and leave all this stuff alone, but she hasn't. Some how she believes that what she's doing is going to make a difference. But its not. And that's already obvious. Now she's only doing podcast shows which are like gossip columns. The people interviewing her are not famous but people who need stories like hers to get new subscribers and attention.

For real though. The thought that they even feel they can say something like that is insane.
Nah, he needs his kiddie diddling parter in crime always by his side.

I don’t understand why Monique can’t be accepted as she is!
Because it makes ppl uncomfortable
But its not Monique..its US. Why cant they accept US as we are..without US having to conform to their level of acceptability in order to achieve success.
Because she too strong..she can't be tamed...

50k and thats it! That was a crime too! I applaud you for your honesty and integrity. Truth is a lonely thing and a forgotten virtue!
She agreed to 50K and ahe gets residual checks from the movie. She agreed to that so nobody forced her to take that so I find it kind of backhanded for her to say that when she agreed to that nobody put a gun to her head and then on top of that she didn’t even want to do press like she thought she was better than everybody else because she has an Axademy award everybody else had too. Will Smith has to press but not Monique right?!
@@Katlady001 She didn't have the Academy Award at that time. She's come out and said she's made about a total of 65k for the movie including residuals. She's not complaining about the 50k rather she contractually fulfilled her press obligations at that time. What LionsGate did is comparable to a job asking you to fly overseas and work, they'll cover the plane ticket and airfare, expect you to work as normal without paying you.
Personally I love my husband too much to involve him as a manager. It just ruins the relationship when you mix business with pleasure. Probably have him look over things without being the manager. Consult with him if needed but not be a manager
@Vibe 11 stop making me laugh. if he such a good manager we should be seeing monique in more movies than we do if he such a good manager.
@Vibe 11 😂😂😂 Her husband needs to get a job he managed her right out of a career.
Monique & Jaguar should start a podcast and blow the whole entertainment industry...
Yasssss
I was thinking the same thing.
But both are saying things separately and its not blowing anything. Some of the stuff Jaquar is saying is based on past gossip people already knew about or people she doesn't even know personally. At least Monique had personal experiences with the people she's talking about
She already has one. But not a lot of viewers or subscribers.
True Aha Moment like Oprah Winfrey? Never Looked at it like that.
*It’s so nice that they were allowed to just SPEAK without interrupting. This was an excellent interview. Also, Cube didn’t speak with the President but he did speak with someone on his team. He did what was right though. He did what is mature. He spoke as a voice for the black community.*
I luv that he stands by her side and she does it for him. I'm so ecstatic over how he protects her♥️💙♥️💙♥️💙♥️💛💛💛
I agree with one of the comments "One thing about Mo"Nique her story has NOT change." I would say, the same for her husband. He appears very sincere, and has a great knowledge and understanding of the business. I think it was bold and very smart for Claudia to do this interview. Moreover, actually a lot stuff Mo'Nique talk about back when all this first started has come to light, as we all know. I never knew who Claudia was, nevertheless, I like her interviewing skills, I like her vibe. Blessings to you all.
Monique started telling her truth and it got her black balled in Hollywood. When that happens, your friends are few to none... Now, you have to figure out how you will continue to make a living...
I really hate that she’s going through this because she’s so talented but what’s the end game here....if any of us trash our companies we’ll be penalized 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
Reality is many of the ppl that complain about Hollyweird why do they choose to linger in the toxicity....???use the money they make and move forward to explore other goals....ppl move forward wen they are fired with nothing so they can do the same
I really like Monique & Sidney but make no mistake she is not poor. That being said, she should still be able to participate in her craft and make as much money as others in the industry with the same talent and recognition as she. I feel bothered by her situation and I hope that she starts getting good positive roles.
I'm a white man and proud to see people to stand up like Mo'que and Sidney. These are strong black people that has a mind of their own and I'm glad to see this happening.
Why do you have to introduce your race? Do you think it would make your validation better? Dont use color, just be human and treat us as such.
I'm seeing in the comments that folks think Monique and her husband should "let it go", however unless you personally know what it's like to attempted to have your character diminished, then you will never understand where they are coming from. Character traits are those adjectives that describes who you are as a person and to have that diminished, will ruin your career as well as your life.
The people they are talking about are not saying anything about them publicly. Monique and sidney are the ones doing all the mud slinging. These people are not even responding to them so everybody is only going by what they are saying. Nobody else is saying anything but them. So they are the ones that are trying to assassinate the character of people.
They are only getting back lash from people in general because they are doing all that talking on line. But Whoopi goldberg, Tyler Perry ( who tried to talk to her in private and she put their conversation out) Oprah, Lee Daniels, will packer (said he refused to comment about her) are not saying anything publicly about her. She tried to call them out and provoke them to respond to her, but none of them have. . So all the talk is coming from her and all the criticism shes getting is coming from people on social media who are reading that stuff she's saying. It's not coming from any of them.
@@cbeyond1957 the people that you named may not be saying anything publicly where the average person, such as you and I, can hear them, but apparently they’re saying or have said a lot in the world of Hollywood. On the other hand, even if they aren’t or haven’t, their very silence speaks volumes, too. That’s just my opinion. 🤷🏾♀️

I have so much respect for MoNique for standing firm and living the integrity most people only give lip service to. With everything she has been through she still shows love for those who abandoned, mistreated and lied about her. Now some of them are apologizing because they've now going through rough periods. She has even stood by some of them during their rough periods under the magnifying glass of public opinion.
I’m white and I have utmost respect for Monique. Hadn’t heard of her or watched her shows until she stood up for herself. And now I’m on UA-cam watching anything I can find :)
This was a good interview....Shed a whole lot of light! I got your back Mo'
Monique is a good storyteller. Claudia ' colorist 'Jordan was cringing with her side jokes
Replaying the victim narrative is never empowering. It's like holding on to resentment and anger. Drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die. Too talented for this.
Deep
Claudia is a thoughtful, talented and thorough interviewer. Good job!!!!
I've been paying attention to Monique's interviews and I've learned that Monique's respect to her husband is so humbling. Monique is a good example of how a woman should be as a partner and the husband also respect her in the same regard. I was taken aback when she apologized for interrupting Sidney of which she has done in most of her interviews...it's humbling. She doesn't let her success or ego overpower Sidney and doesn't interrupt or talk over him even though she's a star. It's no surprise they make a good team because they have mastered basic skills needed in a marriage, respect, communication and loyalty. I just had to acknowledge that. Hollywood can take away her spotlight but her husband/marriage is all she needs.
I love Monique! I never tire of hearing her and Sydney telling their truth - their stories have never changed. People fear the strong black woman; what do you think they feel about that strong black woman who has her black man fighting with her?
The truth will always stand
It's the same story though. I feel for her
I strongly agree with you too. Keep telling people about what happened don't let it be forgot.
I can’t imagine the pain she felt hearing ppl
Tell her to leave her husband who helped her more than anyone.... especially a rare good helpful black man.
❣️💌❣️
The Love and Friendship that this couple shares is PRICELESS 👍🏽
But Whoopi of all persons to tell that her husband/manager was a liability and should be discarded. Perhaps she was a bit envious of Mo since she didn't have a strong black man by her side fighting for her. 😏😏
@@mariastewart8810 nobody was telling her to leave her husband, she was told to hire a manager who is not her husband.
He maybe the best husband in the world, but he probably was the worst manager for Monique, who knows.
Sometimes it is wise to separate family from the business.
She should have looked for producers who were willing to work with her manager, instead of complaining for whole decade.
Rare black man ?
So the beef is that OW, TP and LD have not publicly come forward to say what's been said in private? I'm all for standing for what you believe in. The issue seems that this is costing her emotional peace more than the financial part. I can feel it as she speaks now and in the past. Our energy does not lie. When we no longer allow the actions of others to affect us, that is where our true POWER is.

I'm extremely critical and skeptical of so many things, including Monique when I first heard of this so many years ago.
But I'm not critical for critics sake. I need to be in order to then fully attempt to break down my own bias and debunk my own beliefs on a topic.
With Monique's situation, it didn't take very long for me to see just how right she was. Monique is a better, wiser leader than 99% of "leaders" validated by the masses. Just look at what all of her elders have told her. They have tried to lead her astray, to devalue herself and compromise her beliefs.
I pray that her and her husband are seeing that you don't need to dance with these devils at all. In fact, there's a spiritual clamoring for exactly what they're bringing to the table.
Really and truly, I have so much respect for her as a human being.
If he's her manager, what gigs have he's been booking for her? She should be on the road consistently by now

Thats exactly the problem, these women giving their unemployed husbands a job that they are not qualified for. Many people told her that her husband was incompetent. You still need to play the game or leave the game.
For the record... Whoopi never told Monique to leave her marriage. 😂 Whoopi told Monique that ppl don’t like her husband, and her husband was having a negative impact on her career. (Fact) Whoopi said he should be fired as her manager.
Whoopi is not the first person to say this. No one in Monique’s life likes Sydney. No one.
Not even her oldest son. If my friend had a man in her life that fractures several important relationships, and runs her career into the ground...i would warn her to look at the common denominator too. 😒 wouldn’t you?😑 Whoopi did nothing wrong.
I've been hearing from other interviews that people don't like her husband.
@@marciarandolph9659 No one likes Sydney but Monique.
He is controlling, emotionally abusive, and a misogynist.
Sydney is the type of man who thinks women should predicate their womanhood on having a husband, and if the woman doesn’t have a husband, then she has failed, or has no value.
You can tell by how he (and Monique) insult women who don’t have husband or try to use Whoopi & Oprah being unmarried as a “read”. Example; “all the women telling me to fire my husband don’t have one...” 😒 So? 😩😂
As if both Oprah & Whoopi can’t go get a bum ass nigga like Sydney to marry them, and pay all his bills.😂 Husbands like Sydney are NOT a prize or an accomplishment. Husbands like Sydney are not hard to find! 🙄 Husbands like Barack Obama, Lebron James, etc. Those are alpha male, masculine husbands who are providers and LOVED by their wives friends,families and colleagues. That’s a prize. This Nikka BOZO. 🤡
It's possible that Sydney loves the position he placed Monique in. There are some men who are quite insecure when their spouses or significant others out-earn them and are more visible than they are. I think Sydney doesn't really want Monique to succeed. He probably delights in the difficulty he's created for her.
I don't see a supportive spouse in Sydney. I see an insecure, manipulative, puppet master.

I love Mo’nique! Ever since I was a kid. I adore her and am so proud of her.

I believe that, 😳
Claudia... You sipping on your beverage when Monique's husband talked about Whoopi sitting by Ted Danson when they were smashing, in Black face and writing the jokes for him to belittle her was hilarious!!!! Bish I hollered! He was very on point with his break down of things.
"You wanna speak first?" "No. You go ahead." That's a marriage. A good one.
