I agree. I had hoped that she would just take the money then use her skills in Africa. Especially on some Nigerian and Ghanaian films. Part of her black balling was that she was upset about her not being promoted across the world for her movie Precious and al of that which came along with it. My opinion is that her adulterous husband doesn't know everything but is her major advisor. 🤔. We must do what we have to do to get what we want. And as I was typing this you spoke about her husband wow. Great minds do think alike. 👍🏽.
Monique made an unwise decision. NETFLIX is big 'shark' in the industry and given that she isn't an A-lister, asking for more isn't wise. This is simply a platform to re-launch to the alpha list. People should hire strategist at this level, so as not to shoot themselves in the foot. Welldone Phrank!, maybe she should hire you as a strategist.
Very true I have also had that thought
This is about an inability to negotiate properly. Tyler Perry, Kevin Hart and Oprah are exceptional businesspeople and the last time I checked, all of them are black so how did they do it ? Don't look for excuses. Provide value and you will be paid what you think you are worth. And apart from that, I'm not boycotting Netflix for a soul!
Why has Monique not received the Blueprint to be successful. Oprah, Kevin Hart, Tyler Perry, Kerry Washington, Shonda Rhymes, Queen Latifah, Steve Harvey, Jay Z, Lebron , Puff Daddy all own their own production or production companies……Why is Monique asking for someone to pay her when she should be producing her own. She is not a good business woman and with her resume she should own her own Production company and not beg Netflix for money.
Life lesson # 1 for Monique: The Key to Success.. is to know your limits!
Life lesson # 2 for Monique: You're as good as your recent results!
Has anyone seen Mrs Hicks working on new material at small comedy clubs like we see other comics doing including Chris Rock, Dave Chapelle? Or I she on a “Ban Netflix Tour”. Work on your craft and make us laugh and we’ll watch it. Simple
Please give this commentary again to Mo'Nique and maybe s h e might listen, but guess what I don't think so, Mo'Nique thinks to much of herself, how selfish is that to ask everyone to blackball Netflix because she couldn't get paid, nope I don't think so, she should have taken the money and in time had her own special
Monique went to Netflix not the other way around. I bet Netflix didn't have Monique on their radar until she went to them. She already had a bad rep regardless if it's true or not and by her handling the situation the way she did just cements that issue. It's too bad because she is talented. Her bringing up her Oscar is not relevant because it was for drama not comedy. At this time she's not relevant and at the end of the day numbers count, as far as Netflix is concerned she is a risk. Until she makes enough like Oprah, Tyler Perry she has to play by the rules. Once she surpasses that she can make her own but she can't go to a company demand what she thinks she ought to be paid and then when she gets a low offer complain. It's in every persons right to demand what they think they are worth doesn't mean they'll get it. She should have auditioned taken the 3 million did a fantastic job and came back for more. Now no one is going to work with her and it's said. IMO she needs to get rid of "Daddy" and hire a professional team to negotiate. He obviously doesn't know what he's doing. God bless your journey.😀
Netflix is clearly not racist, at least you cannot affirm it from that incident, she is probably just a bad negotiator because they proposed initially 3 millions. However the discussions went, in the end it’s simply. business don’t pull out the racism card it’s not that big of a deal. As you said she’ll get a better deal with a different company maybe
TIFFANY HADDISH HAS A NETFIX SHOW : Tiffany Haddish to Star in Netflix Animated Series ‘Tuca and Bertie’ From ‘BoJack Horseman’. Haddish will play Tuca in addition to executive producing. And she didn't have to boycott, get vulgar or tell someone to "suck her d**k"
Stop making sense!
There's an Article which said Mo'Nique lied about Her 500k Offer. NETFLIX Originally Offered 3 Million Dollars under the Condition that She Audition for Their Execs, and She Declined Their Offer. Afterwards, NETFLIX offered Her a 500k Flat-Out Deal, and She Still Declined Their Offers.
She already said she had the top agent, was with the top agency in Hollywood and had the best lawyers and they kept telling her that they would address her salary in the next one and the next one and she got tired of it. Smh!!
Will Smith only went on Instagram coz Ellen made him and set it up for him. He hardly posts anything smh!!!
FINALLY,Someone with snap!! I said the same thing about crying wolf. You try and call out anything you THINK is racist & when real shit happens to real people "WE'RE COMPLAINING".
I am boycotting them. Thank God she is speaking up for Blacks. Always someone to say Blacks should shut up and they are Black. Sad. Go for it Mo'Nique. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Right On Brother Man From The MotherLand Of Africa…… I Personally Feel This Was The Final Blow……..Never Say Never I Could Be Wrong, Yet From My Observation And Her Professionalism….. IDK 😐
Dogs, will take anything, and will eating anything…like, when, I saw a dog with a used bloody Kotex in his mouth, while running down the streets, we just laughed as brothers…..(Case and Point…….She's "Monique" or "Wanda" not a dogs! This is no laughing matter)….Unless, someone like Monique and Wanda, exposed the unfairness and wage gap, and put themselves on the line….Still you're completely correct and on the real. But these so called black consciousness sisters and brothers, who love their Netflix, so much. they wouldn't give (us a chance to fight for each other case…….If they was really smart, their social media, responses should have been; I will boycott, and still keep watching, who knows any way (watching or not) its the unity that scares most!…But, the so called black consciousness sisters and brothers, who love their Netflix, so much, they've put their stupidity before their wisdom and black suaveness. Then have the mordacity and audacity to mock and clown her. Maybe that's why some call us monkeys, "A BARREL OF MONKEYS"…I WONDER DO MONKEYS, TAKE PEANUTS?, BEACUASE IT APPEARS THE MASS OF THEM WOULDA ON SOCIAL MEDIA. MAYBE THEY NEVER HAD ANYTHING, WORTH THE FIGHT FOR. "WE THE PEOPLE", and this isn't a black thing, but a fair and right thing to do!I hope your turn come around, when you get lesser, than your personal expectations, and when you come up short after years, don't cry move on…and leave the years you sacrificed for
It's now come out that Netflix originally offered her 3 million but wanted her to do a show case for the hire-ups. She refused that offer, so Netflix then offered her 500k sight unseen flat fee for a one time special and when she tried to get more than the 500k Netflix said no thanks. I don't think her argument for race holds water, nor do I believe her argument for gender holds water. Case in point, before this hold thing happened with Mo'Nique Netflix signed content creator Shonda Rhimes to a 4 year deal for something like 100 million.
Good perspective on this topic.
Gallagher, Louie Anderson, and Andrew Dice Clay waiting for their Netflix specials too. Ijs. I bet they'd take that $500k in a heartbeat and make great comebacks. Well…maybe not Gallagher 😏
You know what ,I think Monique needs to chill. I agree with you. I think she should have taken the money to give her a fresh start. Her image has been so negative lately and what she is doing now will not make it better. Franklin, as usual, you are on it!!!
dont mind Monique ! her mouth is killing her..she could have taken the money or a bit more and use the opportunity to come back full force….so sad because i really like her ….i stand with her while im watching Netflix thou..unsubscribing Netflix ??? ko jo rara LOL
Why would any company want to invest in Mo'Nique when her twitter is only 150,000? Amy Schumer twitter is 4.8 million!!!! Funny or not my money will go to Amy not boring ass Monique. Mo'Nique is the one that's racist and she's arrogant as well as her husband.
I have watched a lot of videos on this subject. This was by far the best breakdown and logic I have seen. Salute brova.
Netflix probably started at 500k but Mo'Nique wanted that Amy Schumer money and they couldn't come to an agreement and Netflix decided it was not worth it and moved on,I bet she could've got a few Mill but she was aiming to like high between 10 to 20 Million
Did you hear Mo'nique run down her resume? She is an oscar winner. She was in a 2016 film that grossed more than Amt S. Amy S. is not on her level at all.
Racism is serious and prevalent. When people say oh race card, race card…..Like Paul Mooney said, "How did the race card get in the deck???"
Yes, this is all because she didn't go on some international interview tour to promote the film she won the oscar for and then she spoke up about Oprah and Tyler Perry. She has been black balled.
I'm with Mo'nique. If people were silent we'd still be in slavery, Jim Crow, and black people wouldn't have upper echelon positions or make ALMOST equal pay as white counterparts.
Most people who aren’t able to get the offer they want would more on to another network, company, etc that will offer more. I feel as though NO ONE was offering but Netflix. She burnt yet another dang bridge. That probably was the final straw she’ll get from Hollywood too… 🤦🏽♀️
I personally use pureflix but not because of her.
Ain’t nobody boycotting shit sis take yo check and go 💀
She saying "they didnt give me enough so we should all help hold her grudge" , my response : No.
