Monique was always right. She just came off unlikeable sometimes which made it hard for folks to empathize with her. One thing about it tho. she always stands 10 toes.

The big executives know everybody not stupid. They count on backlash and negative publicity towards those who speak up for themselves to get out of paying people.

I been trying to get Monique out my mind ever since I was reading today that Kym Whitley said the bed broke when she had a 3X with Gerald Lavert and Monique. Now this.

Except for Girlfriends, Moesha, and maybe Half and Half, did any of those UPN sitcoms make that kind of money before the CW takeover?

Funny how people like her always get a wild hair up the a$$ and do something out of the ordinary and everybody who stands aside and watches hollerin "NO COMMENT" while its going on ends up benefitting and praising people like her later for their bravery blah blah blah its a canned speech. She and Gabby Union and The Me-too movement is a long over due enema the entertainment industry needs hope there is more to come.
