ILOSM family…in case y’all haven’t yet heard, Mo’Nique has just caused quite a stir on these social media streets again. In the latest chapter of their long-standing beef, Mo’Nique has once again thrown verbal jabs at media moguls, Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry. During a recent performance (see video below) on Katt Williams’ tour, Mo’Nique let loose with a cuss-word-laced tirade, branding Winfrey and Perry as “coon mothaf*****s”.
Mo’Nique made her feelings abundantly clear, shouting, “F*** YOU OPRAH WINFREY, F*** YOU TYLER PERRY!!!” The crowd echoed her sentiments, adding a crude twist. But not everyone seemed eager to join the onslaught, with some audience members displaying hesitation. Mo’Nique wasted no time in calling out an Oprah fan, even encouraging him to “bring O back to Black” by engaging in intimate activities with her, if you catch my drift.
But Mo’ didn’t stop there. Amidst her barrage of bashing, Mo’Nique sarcastically expressed her love for Oprah while simultaneously referring to her as “simple-minded” and a “raggedy bit*h”. She then went on to question the nature of Oprah’s relationship with Gayle King, hinting at a romantic connection between the two.
Mo’Nique then proceeded to stir up the longstanding rumor that has followed Gayle King and Oprah Winfrey for most of their careers, by suggesting Gayle and Oprah are friends with benefits so to speak.
To solidify her points overall, Mo’Nique offered an explanation for her statements to the audience, stating “I’m too mothaf***in’ old to be scared of this bit*h. I’m too old to be intimidated by this bit*h. I’m too old to hold the mothaf***in’ truth.”
This ongoing feud between Mo’Nique, Oprah, and Tyler Perry traces back to Mo’Nique’s allegations of being “blackballed” in Hollywood after she refused to participate in certain press events for the film “Precious”, which Winfrey and Perry produced. Over the years, Mo’Nique has repeatedly accused both stars of actively sabotaging her career.
Notably, Mo’Nique previously appeared on Shannon Sharpe’s “Club Shay Shay” podcast, claiming to possess a recording of Tyler Perry bad-mouthing her, an allegation that Perry vehemently denied.
The animosity between Mo’Nique and these Hollywood powerhouses has persisted for over a decade, and it doesn’t show any signs of slowing down one bit. Despite the controversy surrounding their beef, Mo’Nique remains resolute, refusing to apologize for her remarks during her recent set. And based on Tyler’s and Oprah’s repeated public silence regarding Mo’Nique’s accusations throughout the years, it seems they refuse to apologize for any alleged wrongdoing toward her as well. So, I suppose…the saga continues.
