Mo’Nique Says Being Painted as a “Big, Fat, Black Woman” Was the Difference in the Response to Taraji P. Henson’s Pay Drama

Mo’Nique is speaking up and out in the wake of Taraji P. Henson‘s viral interview about unequal pay as a Black actress.

As reported, ‘The Color Purple’ star broke down in tears when relaying the struggles she’s encountered receiving equal parity.

Many made an alignment between Henson’s sentiments and those Mo’Nique articulated during her public beef with the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Lee Daniels, and Tyler Perry relating to ‘Precious’ and the fallout that followed.

Sitting down for an interview with Shannon Sharpe on Club Shay Shay today (February 7), addressed the comparisons folk have been making.

Full story below…

Sharing that watching Henson’s emotion was “painful,” Mo’Nique suggested her complaints were dismissed by many because of her appearance.

She said:

“It was the messenger. I should just be grateful I got invited to the party. You’re a big, fat Black woman. How dare you?”
