Remember Us? Stars Blackballed After Their Oscars Speak Out
Mo’Nique
Mo’Nique says that Sometimes being blackballed is about standing up for yourself and refusing to be underestimated or devalued by less-than-Oscar-wothy roles. She told CNN Tonight,
“It wasn’t that I was blackballed like Mr. Daniels said… the phone was ringing and the scripts were coming but the offers that were associated with them made me say ‘I can’t accept that. If we continue to accept these low offers, how do we make a change?”
