‘If you had a husband like mine you may not have two DUIs’ – Monique clapbacks Tiffany Haddish be so mature and full of wisdom
“If you had a husband like mine, you may not have two DUIs. If you had a husband like mine, you may not be caught up in what looks like you could’ve been grooming a chɪld… If you had one like mine, you may not sit in these positions that you can’t explain the next day.”
Mo’Nique was not holding back during her interview with Shannon Sharpe on Club Shay Shay. The interview, which was released today (Feb. 7), saw The Parkers alum sharing some choice words for Tiffany Haddish.
“If you had a husband like mine, you may not have two DUI’s,” Mo’Nique said, referencing Haddish’s recent legal mishap. “If you had a husband like mine, you may not be caught up in what looks like you could’ve been grooming a chɪld.”
Sharpe responded: “She don’t even have a husband, let alone yours.”
Mo’Nique’s criticism of the actress follows comments Haddish made about her during her 2018 GQ interview.
“My business run different than her business. I don’t live her life. I don’t have that husband of hers,” Haddish said to the publication at the time.
Haddish’s comments were in reference to Mo’Nique slamming Netflix for allegedly lowballing her with a $500,000 offer for a comedy special back in 2017. Netflix’s alleged offer to Mo’Nique failed in comparison to other comedians. Chris Rock reportedly made $40 million for two specials, Dave Chappelle inked a $60 million deal for three specials, and Amy Schumer racked up $11 million for one of hers. After withdrawing the offer, Mo’Nique boycotted the streamer until, in 2023, she closed a deal with Netflix for her comedy special My Name Is Mo’Nique for an undisclosed amount.
Mo’Nique Blasts Tyler Perry and Oprah
Haddish wasn’t the only person Mo’Nique targeted during her interview with Sharpe. She didn’t hold her tongue on how Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey have allegedly treated her over the years.
Mo’Nique accused Perry and Oprah of blackballing her in Hollywood and says that she has audio proof of the “Diary of a Mad Black Woman” star allegedly admitting to it. Sharpe seemingly acknowledges that it’s something he has heard off-camera. Perry has not spoken out about the alleged audio.
