Mo’Nique is still seeking a sitdown with “Precious” director Tyler Perry and billionaire media maven Oprah Winfrey, years after their spectacular fallout.
Mo’Nique has always maintained that Perry and Winfrey blackballed her from the industry after she refused to take part in the promotional tour for the 2009 movie.
“I’m still waiting for Tyler Perry, still waiting for Oprah Winfrey to say, ‘Let’s have this public open conversation.’ Don’t run. Don’t run. Because that may be able to heal our community just like my son and I,” she said on The 85 South Show.
Mo’Nique also addressed rumors that she is difficult to work with.
“Well, for the people that said I’m hard to work with, they’ve not worked with me. So I can’t even entertain it. Because they’ve not worked with me,” she added. “Because they’ve not worked with me. But when you have a man named Tyler Perry saying, ‘She’s difficult to work with,’ and you’ve never worked with me, and that cost me twelve years of my career.”
