ship up fencing.

food chain, see your fortunes in.

14
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:51,119
Speaker 3: T That's My Name.

15
00:00:52,799 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 4: W is podcast club Shashae has been straight up buzzing

16
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,040
ever since that Cat Williams interview dropped. He's been lighting

17
00:01:05,079 --> 00:01:07,519
it up with some seriously wild conversations and let's just

18
00:01:07,599 --> 00:01:09,760
say a few big names in the industry are probably

19
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,680
sweating right now. The gossip is flown like crazy, especially

20
00:01:12,719 --> 00:01:14,959
when it comes to Oprah and Tyler Perry. Given that

21
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,159
Shannon had been rumored to have a rocky history with

22
00:01:17,239 --> 00:01:20,040
both Oprah and Tyler, it's no shock er that fans

23
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:21,879
are convinced that they're out to get him.

24
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,599
Speaker 2: And y'all want to guess who's right in the middle

25
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,120
of this, Monique. That's who.

26
00:01:25,519 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 4: See Monique dragged Oprah and Tyler into this mess when

27
00:01:28,079 --> 00:01:30,719
she went on Club Sha Shay and Homegirl dragged them

28
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,760
for Phil. And now that to have been set up

29
00:01:33,799 --> 00:01:36,760
with this SA lawsuit, all fingers are pointing straight at

30
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:39,799
Oprah and Tyler. So what exactly did Monique say about

31
00:01:39,879 --> 00:01:42,719
them in the podcast? Let's break it down. Shannon Sharp's

32
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,799
lawsuit has been a hot topic in the past couple

33
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,439
of days, and baby, when I tell you that he's

34
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,280
been getting dragged, he's been getting dragged for Phil. He

35
00:01:50,439 --> 00:01:53,120
even had to step down temporarily from his duty at

36
00:01:53,359 --> 00:01:55,760
ESPN and there are rumors that it might become a

37
00:01:55,879 --> 00:01:58,680
permanent exit. Oh and that one hundred million dollar deal

38
00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:01,120
he was about to sign for Club Well, let's just

39
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,079
say that it's pending at the moment because sponsors don't

40
00:02:04,079 --> 00:02:06,079
want to get mixed up in this kind of drama.

41
00:02:06,359 --> 00:02:09,039
At this point, people are as Shannon was set up,

42
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,280
and it didn't take long for Oprah and Tyler Perry's

43
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,719
names to pop up. Even though there's no hard evidence

44
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,919
to suggest that they had anything to do with it.

45
00:02:16,199 --> 00:02:19,520
Kat William's interview on Club Shashay was messy, but things

46
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:21,800
really hit the fan with Monique pulled up to and

47
00:02:21,879 --> 00:02:24,240
went all the way in on Oprah and Tyler Perry.

48
00:02:24,599 --> 00:02:27,639
That interview has more than fifteen million views, So you know,

49
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,479
Oprah and Tyler probably solid and let's real pat them

50
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,759
in the best light now if you're not up to speed.

51
00:02:33,879 --> 00:02:36,439
Monique's been beefing with them for years. The drama goes

52
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,759
back to when Tyler Perry asks her to promote the

53
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:42,439
movie Precious for free. Monique refused, and who can blame her?

54
00:02:42,599 --> 00:02:45,240
Nobody wants to work for exposure, But instead of respecting

55
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,120
her decision or cutting her check, Tyler and Oprah allegedly

56
00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:51,439
started spreading rumors labeling her as difficult, which ended up

57
00:02:51,439 --> 00:02:54,560
getting her blacklisted. When someone like Tyler or Oprah starts

58
00:02:54,599 --> 00:02:57,039
calling you difficult, that kind of label can seriously mess

59
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,520
up your career. And that's exactly what happened to Monique

60
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,080
because people when the industry started avoiding her like she

61
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,479
was a liability. Now, Tyler has always denied having anything

62
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,439
to do with it. He said more than once that

63
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,080
her career problems weren't his fault and that she's just

64
00:03:10,159 --> 00:03:12,520
trying to shift the blame by bringing his name into it.

65
00:03:12,759 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 2: But Monique has him back down.

66
00:03:14,479 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 4: She stood by her claims that both Tyler and Oprah

67
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,080
had a hand in damaging her career, and when she

68
00:03:19,159 --> 00:03:21,599
sat down with Shannon on Club Shasha, she laid it

69
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,360
all out, accusing Tyler of blackballing her and then lying

70
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,479
to her face about it like nothing ever happened, right, And.

71
00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:31,199
Speaker 5: He said, I can see the pain in you, and

72
00:03:31,319 --> 00:03:33,159
I can hear it, and I want to let you

73
00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:36,039
know that I would never do nothing to hurt you.

74
00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:40,120
But the conversation kept going on, only for Tyler Perry

75
00:03:40,199 --> 00:03:43,120
to admit he did start a rumor that I was

76
00:03:43,159 --> 00:03:46,759
difficult to work with. He lied, only for Tyler Perry

77
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,879
to admit I was wrong, and when my movie Boot

78
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:50,319
come out.

79
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 4: She also claimed that Tyler promised that he was going

80
00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:55,599
to fix the situation and get people off her back,

81
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:56,280
but he never.

82
00:03:56,199 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 5: Did, only for Tyler Perry to admit I was wrong,

83
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,479
and when my movie Boot come out, I'm gonna say that.

84
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,319
Speaker 4: She then claimed that she had an audio recording of

85
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,680
Taler Perry where he admitted to starting the rumor that

86
00:04:08,759 --> 00:04:11,120
got her black ball and admitted that it wasn't a

87
00:04:11,159 --> 00:04:12,080
fair thing for him to do.

88
00:04:12,759 --> 00:04:16,639
Speaker 5: Well, we sent you the audio of Tyler Perry. I

89
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,959
don't want you to take me at my word. I

90
00:04:19,079 --> 00:04:20,439
want you to hear his words.

91
00:04:20,879 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 3: And what did you hear that man saying? What did

92
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,319
you hear that man saying? He said it? What did

93
00:04:27,399 --> 00:04:27,720
he say?

94
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:30,519
Speaker 1: Is that.

95
00:04:32,399 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 3: Moteney?

96
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 6: You know you're not supposed to be recording people.

97
00:04:35,519 --> 00:04:39,319
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, let me back up. Everything we

98
00:04:39,439 --> 00:04:40,240
did was legal.

99
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 5: And here's where a black woman really gets the kick

100
00:04:43,879 --> 00:04:48,199
in that had I not recorded Tyler Perry, then it

101
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,920
would have been my word against his, and then on

102
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,399
top of that, it would have been he's so powerful.

103
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,720
We can't even pay no attention to that. Well, now

104
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,279
I have him on audio, which is legal to do

105
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,879
where we live, right, Okay, we have him on audio,

106
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:05,279
and do you know what?

107
00:05:05,399 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 3: Some people then said, why would you record him?

108
00:05:09,959 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 5: Just like you said there and said, you know what's

109
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,480
illegal to But did you hear what the man said?

110
00:05:15,639 --> 00:05:18,480
I a violated you, I mistreated you.

111
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 4: According to fans, she really said what needed to be said.

112
00:05:22,199 --> 00:05:25,079
For years, people have been calling Monique Liar a troublemaker

113
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,759
and pretty much dragging her name through the mud. So

114
00:05:27,879 --> 00:05:29,879
the fact that she got tirled to admit everything on

115
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,399
tape Genie's move and like she mentioned, it's not illegal

116
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,240
to record someone where she lives, a lot of fans

117
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,519
feel like if Tyler had known he was being recorded,

118
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,000
he never would have owned up to spread in those rumors.

119
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,040
She also got rid about how much damage it did

120
00:05:43,079 --> 00:05:45,680
to her and her family. According to Monique, she lost

121
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,000
out on a round ten million dollars worth of work

122
00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:50,800
because of all the behind the scenes sabotage.

123
00:05:50,639 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 3: Over a lie and a rumor.

124
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,439
Speaker 6: Is he gonna is he gonna make a call? He's

125
00:05:54,439 --> 00:05:55,519
gonna compensate you for that?

126
00:05:55,639 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 3: I want you to look in your camera.

127
00:05:57,079 --> 00:05:59,199
Speaker 5: Yes, and I want you to talk to Tyler Perry

128
00:05:59,399 --> 00:06:02,120
because you heard what that man said, So ask him.

129
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 3: Will he compensate my family for that? Tyler?

130
00:06:04,879 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 6: Will you come on club Shayshay and let's have a

131
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,839
conversation about the fair compensation for what transpired between you

132
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,079
and Monique. You can sit right here, and she's sitting

133
00:06:14,199 --> 00:06:16,319
right here, and you and I can have a conversation

134
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,079
and we'll do you one.

135
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: Better and give me five on that, baby.

136
00:06:20,199 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 2: But it gets even messier.

137
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,439
Speaker 4: According to Monique, there were a few folks in the

138
00:06:23,519 --> 00:06:25,800
industry who actually tried to go to bat for her.

139
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 2: They reached out to Tyler's to help smooth things over.

140
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,319
Speaker 4: At first it seemed like they had her back, but

141
00:06:30,439 --> 00:06:33,920
then they suddenly went radio silence, just disappeared. Monique says.

142
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,439
They stopped returning her calls and completely goes.

143
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,639
Speaker 3: To her, which only mean even more shady with this

144
00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:40,560
whole situation.

145
00:06:41,319 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 5: And some of the people that Kat talked about, ironically,

146
00:06:44,319 --> 00:06:49,319
I have issues with those same people. There were people

147
00:06:49,439 --> 00:06:52,920
that reached out to Tyler Perry on my behalf, okay,

148
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:54,439
and I was grateful for that.

149
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,959
Speaker 3: Okay. There was Al Sharpton, the Reverend Al Sharpton, civil

150
00:07:00,079 --> 00:07:04,160
rights leader. I sent him that audio. He listened to it.

151
00:07:04,879 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 5: He said, baby, what that man did to you is wrong,

152
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,319
and you're like my daughter, and we're gonna have to

153
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,120
get him to fix that.

154
00:07:10,639 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 6: Right.

155
00:07:12,439 --> 00:07:14,519
Speaker 3: We didn't hear from l. Sharpton for six months.

156
00:07:15,319 --> 00:07:17,279
Speaker 5: The next time we saw Al Sharpton, he was on

157
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,319
a podium talking about we don't need to fly commercial

158
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,959
because we can fly Tyler Perry's private jet.

159
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,759
Speaker 3: I said, that's why maybe I'm not hearing back from him. Okay.

160
00:07:28,439 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 5: Then we had our beautiful sister, Stephanie Mills. Yes, okay,

161
00:07:32,439 --> 00:07:33,800
who is she?

162
00:07:33,959 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 3: Don't play? Yes right?

163
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,759
Speaker 5: I told her what happened since her to audio. Now

164
00:07:37,839 --> 00:07:39,560
don't know if she listened to that audio or not.

165
00:07:40,079 --> 00:07:43,639
But however, she called Tyler Perry. She said, Monique, Tyler

166
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,319
Perry does not want to revisit this. Okay, fine, While

167
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:51,399
we're on the phone, Tyler Perry calls her back and says,

168
00:07:51,839 --> 00:07:55,120
I will meet with Monique, but not with her husband.

169
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 3: Then you ready for this?

170
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 5: And now Monique has to apologize publicly to say Oprah

171
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,079
I had nothing to do, was messing up her career.

172
00:08:05,399 --> 00:08:07,959
Speaker 2: So, from the way it looks, Tyler wasn't just spreading rumors.

173
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 4: He was also allegedly flipping people who were actually in

174
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,879
Monique's corner, Folks who were ready to speak up for

175
00:08:12,959 --> 00:08:15,519
her suddenly went quiet after talking to him. And if

176
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,439
that wasn't enough, he had the nerve to ask her

177
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,680
to apologize to him, like, sir, you're the one who

178
00:08:19,759 --> 00:08:20,399
blackballed her.

179
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,319
Speaker 2: Girl, the audacity is off the charge.

180
00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 4: But Tyler wasn't the only one catching heat because Oprah

181
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,759
got it even worse. Monique's interview just so happened to

182
00:08:27,839 --> 00:08:30,560
drop right when Oprah was already getting dragged online for

183
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,120
low balling Taraji p Henson. That time was brutal because

184
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,559
fans took that as a green light to start digging

185
00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:39,279
up older Oprah probably thought was long forgotten.

186
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 2: See, right around the.

187
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 4: Time that Monique was being black balled, Oprah shaded Monique

188
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,840
for having negative energy, saying, it's a law that if

189
00:08:45,879 --> 00:08:48,000
you meet negative when negative, you would just have a

190
00:08:48,159 --> 00:08:51,759
combustive negative force of energy. You can't meet negative energy

191
00:08:51,799 --> 00:08:53,759
where it is. You have to rise above it. You

192
00:08:53,919 --> 00:08:56,159
have to transcend it. I would never stoop to try

193
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,759
to meet somebody where they are negatively, don't care who

194
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,720
they are. After everything went down, Monique pretty much got

195
00:09:01,919 --> 00:09:04,519
iced out. People in the industry started avoiding her, not

196
00:09:04,639 --> 00:09:06,600
because they had a problem with her, but because they

197
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,679
didn't want to risk upsetting Tyler or Oprah. When heavyweights

198
00:09:09,879 --> 00:09:12,200
like that turn against you, it makes people think twice

199
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,080
about working with you. But credit where it's due. Monique

200
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,159
didn't stay quiet. As soon as she realized she was

201
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,759
being blackballed. She started speaking out and calling people out directly.

202
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,200
She wasn't about to let it slide or pretend everything

203
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,720
was cool when it clearly wasn't.

204
00:09:24,879 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 2: Here's the wild part.

205
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 4: Monique told Shannon that after all the back and forth,

206
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,240
she only ended up getting paid.

207
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 2: Fifty thousand dollars for Precious Now.

208
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,399
Speaker 4: Sure to everyday folks like us, that might sound like

209
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,759
a lot of money, but in Hollywood that's barely enough

210
00:09:36,799 --> 00:09:39,440
to cover her hair, makeup, glam teams, and everything else

211
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,720
that comes with being in the spotlight. Then ad being

212
00:09:41,759 --> 00:09:43,919
expected to promote the movie for free on top of

213
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,039
all of that, and you start to see monique side

214
00:09:46,039 --> 00:09:48,840
of the story. Actors Robin Lee even broke it down once,

215
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,559
saying that about eighty percent of what actors makes go

216
00:09:51,759 --> 00:09:53,720
straight to taxes, agents.

217
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,879
Speaker 2: Lawyers, managers, you name it.

218
00:09:55,039 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 4: So when you do the math, Monique probably walked away

219
00:09:57,159 --> 00:09:59,879
with something like tenk. And it may Oprah look really bad.

220
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,240
And if there's one thing we know about Oprah, it's

221
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,679
that she does not like looking bad. Well, fast forward

222
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,320
to Shannon's essay lawsuit and fans are now wondering if

223
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,279
Oprah and Tyler Perry has something to do with it,

224
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,159
and given how embarrassing. Monique's interview was for them. It

225
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,679
explains why fans feel like they might have something to

226
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,279
do with Shannon's legal troubles. Chow, This is a lot,

227
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,039
but do y'all believe that Shannon was set up? Or

228
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:20,799
do y'all think he really did what he was being

229
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,840
accused of. Drop your thoughts in a comments, then check
