Since going viral with her ‘Club Shay Shay‘ interview, Oscar Award-winning actress and comedian Mo’Nique has issued a unique apology to Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry after hearing critical comments from Greg Mathis and Stephen A. Smith.
As we all know, Mo’Nique has had a longstanding feud with Oprah and Tyler P since filming her Oscar Award-winning role in the 2009 movie ‘Precious.’ For years, Mo’Nique has claimed that she contractually fulfilled all of her promotional obligations with the movie’s director and producer Lee Daniels.
However, when the independent movie was picked up by Oprah and Tyler P, they had Daniels, Mo’s close friend, ask her to complete additional promotional tasks, which the actress and comic claimed she respectfully declined, noting how she already completed her paid duties. Following her rejection, Mo’Nique alleged Perry went on to call her “difficult to work with,” which subsequently negatively affected her career, allegedly costing her tons of jobs and millions of dollars throughout the years.

Mo’Nique has continued to air out Oprah for wronging her in the past with her family, as well as with their ‘Precious‘ incident, also including Tyler Perry. Eventually, Mo’Nique and Lee Daniels rekindled their friendship and working relationship after he apologized publicly in April 2022. Since then, Mo’Nique has joined Shannon Sharpe on his ‘Club Shay Shay‘ podcast, where she followed in the steps of fellow comedian Katt Williams and aired out everybody who has wronged her.
The interview caught major views and with it criticism from fellow celebrities and those close to Mo’Nique and those she spoke out against. Those who spoke out included Greg Mathis and Stephen A. Smith. After going viral with her interview, Mo’Nique soon revealed that she was going on tour with Katt Williams, and during a recent tour stop, she noted that she heard the comments from Mathis and Smith and offered a special apology to those who’ve wronged her.
In a clip going viral from her recent performance, Mo’Nique ran across the stage and said, “You got to run to the apology, n***a. You got to run to it. I got to give one. I listened to Brother Greg Mathis. I heard you, Brother Greg Mathis. I heard you, Stephen A. Smith. I want y’all to understand something about me. When I have communicated something wrong, I’m a b*tch who’s going to say, ‘I’m sorry.’ I’m a b*tch who’s going to own what the f**k I said. I’m a b*tch who’s going to walk in what the f**k I said. And I owe two motherf***ers an apology because I communicated some sh*t wrong to them some years ago.”
Mo’Nique continued, “Tyler Perry said I have to give him and Oprah Winfrey a public apology and I’m going to give it right now, tonight, in front of you n***as in Albany, New York. Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry, I want to apologize for telling y’all to ‘Suck my d**k.'” The crowd immediately began to cheer and roar in laughter and applause.
