Mo’Nique wants you to boycott Netflix

[DCAllAfrican]

She doesn't have the star power the others have.

Now, CAN we say it is because we value female comics to a less valued than male comics, that is another discussion.

But there is no DEMAND for her special. 500K, might be more than enough honestly. She isn't even BIG anymore, so half of her content is gone.

So yea, Non Issue

Yeah she has no buzz like that. Probably thinking how Kat can comeback, but people were anticipating his. Probably some merit to her point though on the back end, we've seen it enough, she just doesn't have much to go on here.

She feels so entitled. I hate people like that. Just take what you can get and shut your trap

Was Amy schumer entitled when she also made a fuss about not getting the same as chappelle and rock and got paid more? No they applauded her. Hm...

Who is "they?"

She also got called entitled by MANY.

Which is why she looped back and said, "I know I am not on their level.......blah blah blah."

 

[Meangene45]

WHO?

 

[dirty]

Honestly it was a fair offer. Who the hell is gonna sit through a hour and a half of her

 

[dmbrhs]

Who the **** wants to watch a Monique comedy special.

Amy Schumer getting 11 million is crazy to me too.

All of this. Schumer getting away with robbery these days. First, it was the jokes, now it's the money.

 

[s-blaze]

I don't think you'll get it, but I'm rooting for you beloved.

 

[stuntman mike]

the funniest thing she ever been in was this

should've played her liberal bonafides against her and call out her "white privilege" to shut her up

 

[debso]

I'll bite.

The first sentence, "academy award winner" already ended this discussion IMHO.
She's funnier than amy. Im not saying her buzz is up there with Amy's or even that she should make as much money as Amy but I am saying I think she's worth more than 500k.
She has no buzz because she is being blackballed.
Half of the people commenting on IG and other sites haven't ever even negotiated their own salary and undervalue themselves and are trying to tell this lady what she should do with her life and her career.
If she takes that offer then other companies will cite that and undervalue her as well. They will continue to lowball her.
The offer is insulting given her resume.
White ppl in general are overpaid and nobody raises a fuss like this over them asking for and taking even more than they already had.
Keep it 100, if she were white or a man or both she would not have her name all over social media with ppl calling her entitled.

Again, people called Amy entitled and a fool when she put her name in the same sentence as Rock/Chappelle.

 

[mr z]

Nobody wants to watch Monique...fat or skinny
There will be no boycott...she is not being brave

 

[macbk]

Boycott Netflix?

 

[Mark Antony]

Some of y'all are being way too extra towards her for no reason.

 

[blakep267]

I mean people like So’more, Monique, Tiffany haddish etc appeal to the urban woman demo for comedy which isn’t even remotely being touched upon by Netflix. So it’s not as if there isn’t a market that can be tapped. That’s why they gave her an offer in the first place

The Dave Chappelle and rock stuff was just using leverage. She’s not expecting to get anywhere near them. But I’d be interested in seeing what they paid people like Allie Wong or Jo Koy to tap into the Asian market

 

[lobcity]

Anybody turning down $500k to tell some jokes got real life problems.

 

[alchemist iq]

Boycott Netflix and chill nah ain’t happening. This isn’t the 1st time she complained about her pay grade. She was cnn about her gettin shafted. She needs to get a better agent to do better movies and films. She knows her worth but damm mama you gotta show it first.

Jo Koy paid for his own special and then sold it to Netflix because no one was giving him a chance, I believe he also tried to sell it to Comedy Central since he was with them first://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/comedian-jo-koy-makes-statement-self-produced-netflix-special-n751436

that's her own fault, her contemporaries have said she's extremely difficult to work with.

 

[HEATHEN]

Nah.

 

[Mr.Guy]

How much did Netflix give KATT Williams for his special?

 

[Arthur Shelby]

No love for Mo'Nique i see

 

[lamekilla]

While I do feel Mo’nique is a little salty that offer is insulting compared to Amy Shummer. Something between 2 and 5 mil and she wouldn’t have made a fuss
