In her Oscar speech Monique thanked the Academy for basing her award on her work, rather than the number of dinners she attended or pictures she took.
And, once she got in the press room, Monique broke protocol by not allowing the moderator to choose who got to ask her questions. They say your girl only took questions from journalists who she says, 'came to her when no one would', blatantly ignoring writers chosen by the moderator who'd been throwing shade all award season!
