In case you’re a lil’ tardy for the party, the other day comedian/actress, Mo’Nique, has pissed off a few of her fellow comedians recently, after she blasted several of them on Shannon Sharpe’s, “Club Shay Shay” podcast. Not all of them have responded, but one we knew good n’ hell well would is comedian/radio host, DL Hughley… and he clapped back with a vengeance at Mo’Nique and her husband with (who have since responded, but we’ll get to that in a sec’).

During her “Club Shay Shay” interview, Mo’Nique accused Hughley of allowing his co-radio show hosts to disrespect her and dismiss her complaints.

She also touched on a conflict between them stemming from confusion over a 2022 event, when Hughley refused to perform if Mo’Nique closed the stand-up special, claiming that he was listed as the headliner in the event memo. However, according to Mo’Nique, her contract stated otherwise. At the time of the 2022 event, their feud took an ugly turn with personal attacks when Mo’Nique brought up the sensitive topic of Hughley’s daughter, Ryan Shepard, a sexual assault survivor. Mo’Nique questioned why Hughley had spoken negatively about others but “won’t call out the name of the person that violated his daughter.”

As y’all can imagine, DL wasted no time in firing back. He took to Instagram to vehemently deny Mo’Nique’s claims, calling her a liar. He criticized her for constantly tearing people down and then attempting to always soften the blow with endearing terms like “Brotha,” “Sista,” or “Sweet baby,” stating that it’s far from “love,” as she claims it to be:

DL- “The reason lies and false narratives continue to go on and circulate is because they go unchecked. What you’re not gonna do is call me out my name and not get checked. Mo’Nique is a liar!”

He continued:

“She is constantly throwing the rock and hiding the hand. You don’t get to tear people down and then soften the blow by calling them ‘Brotha,’ ‘Sista,’ or ‘Sweet baby.’ That’s not love, far from it.”

DL then touched on Mo’Nique’s statements about his daughter having been sexually assaulted:

“Mo’Nique brought that sh*t up and told the world that I allowed my daughter to be raped in front of me. The lying motherf****r.”

After DL’s response to Mo’Nique, she and her husband-manager, Sidney Hicks — whom Mo’Nique refers to as “Daddy”, which DL referenced in his video– have responded with an announcement:

“D.L. Hughley, that’s your conscience talking to you, brother; I never said that. And I want to be clear about something else. Never would I try to do anything to harm any of your babies because we got babies, too. However, what I was saying to your daughter — and to the other daughters out there — I know what it’s like for your daddy to know you’ve been touched and he not protect you.”

And the saga between these two comedic heavyweights continues…because it doesn’t look like neither one of them will be tappin’ outta this beef any time soon.
