Mo’Nique Denies Being “Donkey Of The Day”

Mo’Nique appeared on “The Breakfast Club” this week to once again explain her anti-Netflix crusade for their gender and racial bias against her.

The comedienne who JUST went head to head with Whoopi Goldberg on “The View”, sat down with Charlamagne, DJ Envy, and Angela Yee and laid into Charlamagne whose real name is Lenard for making her “Donkey Of The Day.”

Not only that, she had her husband/manager Sidney Hicks call in to back her up.

Mo’Nique: “This is why again Lenard, you’ve got to be careful with your words because you called your sister Donkey Of The Day but you didn’t your research. Now as we sit here you have to almost backtrack your words.”

Charlemagne: “I’m not backtracking anything.”

Mo’Nique: “You poured this poison out into the community without fully doing your research. When you ask the question, ‘Did you counteroffer?’ We put the information out there. See we did and they said, “There’s no negotiation, take it or leave it.”

Sidney Hicks: “We didn’t actually counteroffer, what we said in the midst of our conversation was 1/2 a million dollars was a strong enough number. They were gonna go back and reflect on what we wanted to discuss.”

That’s not all, however, Mo asked Charlamagne if he would dare call his mama and grandma a “donkey” and he said “no.”

“What happens is, when you’re basing off of what you’re assuming,” said Mo. “And then you give me a title of Donkey of the Day … Is your mother still alive? … And you’re from what city in South Carolina? … Moncks Corner, South Carolina. And if I was to call your mother or your grandmother would they tell me stories of inequality that they had to deal with? … So would your mother be a donkey? Would your grandmother be a donkey?”

“What that says is that you don’t know the history of the business that you’re in, and you sit behind this microphone and you try to be the guru of Black culture. I’m gonna need you to know the history of us before you begin to label us. And once you know the history, you know I’m not saying anything unique, brother.”

Oh Mo…

Whose side are you on? Mo’Nique’s or Lenard’s???

Hit the flip for more.

After the show finished taping Mo’Nique compared Charlamagne to a slave in the movie “Birth Of A Nation” who gave his wife to their slave master.

WELL DAMN!

Things got especially interesting when Mo’Nique tried to compare Will Packer who she feuded with on the set of “Almost Christmas” to Harvey Weinstein.

According to Mo she’s the only one in Hollywood publicly blasting Will Packer because people are afraid of the repercussions, like the actresses who stayed silent before the #MeToo movement.

Mo’Nique:”You know the guy Harvey Weinstein, he was able to do that for how many years? Do you think this is a unique situation? Do you think people are fearful to speak out when they’re mistreated.”

Charlamagne: “There’s a difference between mistreatment and sexual assault Mo’Nique. You can’t put out false equivalencies about people.”

Sidney Hicks: “Wait a minute Charlemagne, you’re absolutely right but mistreatment is mistreatment.”

Charlamagne: “You can’t paint Will with the same brush as Harvey Weinstein.”
