Mo’Nique isn’t going to let something like being nominated for an Academy Award stop her from doing what she loves: stand up!!
The actress/comedienne, who has already won a Golden Globe, SAG Award, and BAFTA for her unbelievable performance as an abusive mother in Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire, recently talked about her recent whirlwind success and her upcoming comedy tour, Spread the Love!!
AP: In the middle of this busy awards season, you’re planning a comedy tour?
Standup is my first baby. Like, I’ll be doing standup, sugar, when I’m like 97 years old. I hope to God I can still make it happen.
AP: You’ve won so many awards. Will you take them on the road with you?
(Laughs) Hell no! No, baby, that’s too much.
AP: Has anyone, after watching the movie, come up to you and opened up about the past?
It’s been quite a few. But one, it was this Asian brother at the DGA (Directors Guild of America) screening, and he came up to me and he had been crying, and he said, “Mo’Nique, what I’m getting ready to say to you is gonna sound weird. But I am Mary Jones, and I was Mary Jones to my brother and my sister.” And we hugged and we were crying, and I said, “Congratulations for saying it out loud, and go get you some help.”
AP: How does that make you feel?
When you hear that you say, “We’ve already won.” So when people say, “Mo’Nique, are you excited about the Oscars and are you excited about the (NAACP) Image awards, are you excited?” I’m excited anytime somebody wants to say, “You know what, we appreciate what you did.” But when you get that, that’s priceless.
