I read that earlier today. I think there's a lot of truth to it but I also think Mo'Nique hasn't stopped being her worst enemy for years. But in this day and age, who am I to say? And she is absolutely right about the white comediennes who don't ever have to work again, and the black ones who do. It's complicated.

I definitely think she’s telling a lot of truth (anyone who has followed Whoopi’s career know Mo’Nique’s comments cut DEEP), but, damn, incinerate those bridges, girl.

I actually don't think that's entirely fair to Whoopi. God knows Whoopi has done and said some dumb, dumb shít in the last 20 years, but she didn't spend the height of her career playing the help.

I'm not much of a Whoopi fan in recent years, but I do think she gave Mo'Nique good advice. 

 

Mo'Nique has had unfair treatment, but I wonder how much of that is down to her husband, who rubs people the wrong way. She also seems to have much harsher words for people who tried to help (like Tyler Perry) than for the likes of Roseanne.

 

Still, she's a very talented comedienne and I'm glad she has found her feet, even if I think as long as she's with that husband she's never really going to be happy.

Mo’Nique and Steve Harvey had a heated debate on his show:
