CONQUERING AFTER THE NETFLIX CONTROVERSY

Mo’Nique’s highly anticipated Las Vegas residency comes months after she was in the middle of a controversy for calling her fans to boycott Netflix, accusing the company of operating under gender and racial bias.

Her anger esteemed from the fact that Netflix offered her $500,000 to make a comedy special, a sum she thought was low in comparison to Amy Schumer’s $11 million deal and Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle’s $20 million deals.

At the time, Mo’Nique received the support of many of her fans but was also slammed on social media by people who thought she was asking for money she didn’t deserve.

However, she didn’t let that stop her, and to this day, she doesn’t regret anything about the situation, as she recently told Vulture, “I’ve had absolutely no regrets whatsoever. If I had to do it all over again, I would do it the same way.”

Mo’Nique also explained to Essence that earning her Las Vegas residency doesn’t feel like a revenge plot to prove wrong all of those who doubted her or her career.

“It doesn’t feel like revenge because I’m not out to get anyone,” she said.

“This is a part of what I do. I never stopped. Because people didn’t see me, they thought I had stopped, but I’ve never stopped being a standup comedian. Through all of this, I was still traveling the country, going to this city, this city, this city, this city because that’s my passion. That’s my baby. That’s my love.”

And continued:

“When the residency came, my husband and [comedy club owner] Tommy Thomas, they worked out the deal. It just felt right because the universe was saying, ‘See, baby? You kept going. We were just getting you ready.'”

A STAND-UP SHOW THAT FEELS LIKE THERAPY

Mo’Nique’s show has been receiving positive reviews from avid fans and curious people that have attended since it started on January 11.

“It’s something different because people laugh. People cry. People listen. People are shocked,” she said, adding that the show also contains a few R-rated jokes.

She also stated that standing on the stage with a microphone to share her truth, feels like a version of therapy “because it allows you a freedom that most people never get.”

“When I’m on that stage, I feel like I’m in the living room and we’re just talking. We’re going to laugh out loud. We might cry a little bit. We might even get real up in each other’s face, but that’s what it is for me,” she concluded.
