50 Cent says he’s ready to write Mo’Nique into one of his scripts as he called out cancel culture and the industry blackballing her more than ten years ago.
Mo’Nique won an Oscar award for her performance in the movie Precious but her failure to thank and acknowledge the director, Lee Daniels, led to an industrywide boycott, she claims.
Now, almost a decade later the release of Precious, it seems that the gifted comedian and actress might be getting another shot at things as rapper 50 Cent has expressed interest in hiring her for one of his current shows.
The rapper has taken on executive producing and writing several shows for Starz, including the successful show ‘Power’ and later spinoffs Raising Kanan and a separate show called Black Mafia Family.
The shows have ranked the most-watched in black households for 2021, and rightly so, as each show and its storyline is gripping and relatable for many. Among those 50 Cent casts are Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, and a slew of other famous celebrities.
Now, the rapper is ready to add Mo’Nique to the list. In a series of posts made on his Instagram account on Friday, 50 Cent called out cancel culture for depriving the actress of opportunities.
