This all may be true but by the sound of your post, you don't sound like you are far from it yourself. Or perhaps you are just lacking a few grammer classes! You might want to proofread before pressing submit particularly when you are trying to put someone on blast!

Don't blame Mo'Nique for the way she speaks. It's obvious that years of fried food, along with sweet & salty snacks has clogged the arteries in her brain. Soo lets just be happy she can speak at all!! If she does win an Oscar, chances are she will batter it with Gold Medal flour, fry it, and eat it!

I LIKE THE MONQUE SHOW I LOVE THE END WHEN SHE TELLS YOU TO HUG YOURSELF BUT, I DO HAVE TO ADMIT THAT YOU CAN GET YOUR POINT ACROSS WITHOUT ALOT OF CUSSING, BUT MONIQUE IS A COMEDIAN AND THEY DO ALOT OF CURSING, BUT THERE IS ALSO A MESSAGE AT THE END. I JUST WANNA SAY THAT WE AL ARE STILL LEARNING THE LESSON OF LIFE, SO MONIQUE I JUST WANNA SAY THAT I AM SO PROUD OF YOU, YOU HAVE COME A LONG WAY AND HAVE STEP THROUGH MANY OBSTACLES AND I LUV YOU FOR YOUR STRENGHTH AND YOUR BEAUTY AND I WISH YOU MORE SUCCESS AND I HOPE YOU READ THIS.

I THINK MONIQUE IS A VERY TALENTED, BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. I TOO DON'T LIKE THE PROFANITY, BUT I GUESS THAT'S WHY MOMS MABLEY, BILL COSBY,AND SINBAD ARE MY KIND OF COMMEDIANS. IF SHE IS PLEASING HER AUDIENCE THEN LET HER BE!

I am very glad that Obama is our president. I am very sad that because he is president, our country is promoting the worst of the African American race. Monique is a joke. I can't even describe how sad I feel every time she opens her mouth. The whole Chris Brown, Michael Vick, Tiger Woods things were so over blown. Their individual stories stayed in the media wayyyyyyyyyyyy too long. There was much more important news but the media made sure everybody knew just how terrible the Black man can be. And we all know that know white men committed any crimes during this time. Monique please go somewhere. Close your mouth and enjoy what money you have made. Just go!

yall act like every word that comes out of her mouth is a cuss word which is not the case,her whole persona is about keeping it real because that's who she is,when she was 250 plus pounds she was the same confidant big beautiful black woman in every sense of the word with a lil hoodness that told BBW everywhere that you can do anything,be anything and be proud of the way you look so just because she lost a lil weight and has a talk show why should she compromise who she is because being herself is what has gotten her to this point and it's going to take her a lot further then being fake would in my opinion.if she stop using profanity and lost the hoodness she would be just another talkshow hostand if you are worried about the image that she is projecting she has won multiple NAACP image awards and i firmly believe they came partly due to the selfesteem that she has given BBW but don't get it twisted i understand yall point but sometimes you have to realise that you can't please everybody,you just have to keep movin' forward and DO YOU!!!

I PRAY MOST TIMES BEFORE I READ ANY COMMENTS ANYWHERE IN CYPER SPACE!!!!!!!!!!
WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE ANYONE. WE LIVE IN A WORLD THAT ALL RACES DISPISE US AND WE CAN'T EVEN RESPECT ONE ANOTHER WHEN WE MOVE FORWARD.
CHANGE WILL COME IN TIME FOR WHATEVER FLAWS MONIQUE MAY HAVE, HAVE YOU SEEN YOUR FLAWS HAVE YOU CHANGED THEM.
MONIQUE IS WHERE SHE IS BY A POWER GREATER THAN YOUR SMALL MINDS. IF SHE CAN GROW DON'T STOP PROGRESS WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY, LET OUR CHILDREN BE ALL, WITH PRIDE, ENCOURGEMENT, LOVE & IF YOU LIVE BY RESPECT YOUR COMMUNITY WILL LIVE BY IT AS WELL.
TO OUR GOD BE HIS GLORY !!!!!!!!!!!!
THE POWER OF ONE
I LOVE U ALL AND THERE ISN'T A THING YOU CAN DO ABOUT

There is no need to cuss on tv; at all, it seems that for most Black entertainers that come after Oprah,are made, to be indignant on tv shows. The only people that will appreciate a lot of cussin will be mostly the new generation of disrespectful "intelligent" people, that think this is the way the world is nurtured. Monique knows better than that. She has children too, with her fine azz self. keep cussin in the bed room(Low Toned) and on a private blog on the internet lol.
