Mo’Nique’s Husband Got Her Blackballed

Mo' Nique Husband Blackballed

Former BET employee, Sian Pierre, said in a recent interview that, the husband of the actress Mo’Nique, Sidney Hicks, is the reason why the Oscar winner is currently blackballed in Hollywood.

Sian Pierre, who’s also the creator of Swagger New York, went on to say that, Mo’Nique’s husband/manager, Sidney Hicks, was asking film studios for money. So, his client/wife, Mo’Nique, would show up to red carpet events.

Here’s what Sian Pierre revealed:

“Mo’Nique and her long-time husband/manager, Sidney Hicks, were becoming the talk of the industry because they allegedly asked for money to show up on carpets to support Precious. While she was not contractually obliged to show up to many of these carpets, most nominated actors kissed the ring to sweeten their hopes of a win, if not to continue hype around their nominated movie. But Mo’Nique and Sidney didn’t want to play the game. They wanted to get paid to play the game.”

Here’s a phone conversation Pierre said he had with Hicks:

“Hi, this is Sidney. Who am I speaking with?’ I had no idea who Sidney could be, I had no friends or work associates with the name. Before I could even finish my name, he began screaming and immediately it clicked. ‘ARE YOU THE ONE WHO TRIED TO SHOW MO’NIQUE’S F***** OSCAR DRESS ON TV?! ARE YOU THE PRODUCER?! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? I WILL GET YOU FIRED WHEN I TALK TO YOUR F**** BOSS.’

I took a breath and responded with something like ‘First of all, Sidney. Don’t scream at me. Tom and I never planned on actually shooting the dress, as the story isn’t about your wife, it’s about the designers who are dressing her.’ After a five minute back and forth, which was part-shouting match part macho ball-grabbing on his part, I was over dealing with Sidney, Mo’Nique’s nasty, mean husband.”

  1. I believe it she is a fool – she let her husband manage her career only to destroy it. Monique knows the game but she tried to change the game and that was her downfall.

  2. The same thing happened to Suzanne Sommers from Three’s Company. Her career never ever recovered.

    • Wow, I like Monique and hate to hear that. Maybe she can start over and do standup again. She has a lot to talk about. Especially how her unemployed husband F’d up her career. I know you love me but get another manager and tell him to get a job and stay out of your business.

  3. Damn, and she let this fool ruin her career and they are both in the marriage only part-time??

    People don’t unnerstand… If you don’t wanna play da game, don’t get into da game.

    Their house, their rules…

  4. Monique has never struck me as a very smart woman. From what I’ve read BOTH of them are rude and hard to work with. They let the hype blow their heads up.

  5. She tried to say that it was because she didn’t include something in a speech, is the reason she was black balled. Now no one wants to deal with them at all. It was their choice.

      • mo’nique should of been smart about it. hiring her personal/private dick should of been a walk in park
        but this dumbot f*cked up her career.

        she should of treated him like dog. only reward men with sex when they earned it!!
        men are like dogs if they done something nice you should suck them off or smoke on their pipe!!!

        men = dog

  6. What an uneducated move!!! She should have had a profesional agent/manager thats been in the game to direct her moves. Theres no way i get two shows, a talk show and an oscar then screw myself in the foot and damage my money flow. Her husband will jump off the bandwagon when the money has been depleted.

  7. Mo’Nique has always had a nasty attitude that I know for a fact. I doubt it was just her husband’s behavior that prompted them to blackball her.

    • yeah @soulfulbeauty. her f8cked up attitude is the reason why no one in hollyweird no longer wants to work with her. she’s too difficult, behind the scenes they say, to deal with – with all her uncause-fr demands, and just her entire messed-up personality as a whole.

  8. women always do this dumb shit, let their husbands control their careers and ruin it. toni braxton, mary j blige, monique low self esteem behind.

  9. that’s a sissy for yah huney. his entire aura screams gay. with their open-marriage-having asses. girl please. next. and damn a Monique…huge body ho. serves her ass right…and for talking badly about skinny women all these years, the sh*t has come back to hunt her.

  10. welp…guess big momma gotta rely soley on those “The Parkers” residual checks, while her sweet tart of a gay hubby go out and get a regular 9-5 clock-in job at the bank as a Bank Teller..since that seems to be the perfect job for a guy like him who looks like he hates to get his hands dirty.

  11. all.the sissy.comedians are taking the mammy jobs so no need for Monique to be one.

  12. I don’t believe this. Need more people. Blame the black man. I don’t believe everything I read without concrete proof. I don’t believe in hearsay. There is more to this and the truth already been stated yet many would believe this .bs.

  13. O well..I hope he dosen’t try to leave her next. Look at the luxery gift bags they give out..there worth at least 100 thousand dollars or more..one of the gifts included a years worth of free rentals for two of the latest versions of the lastest car models. (Cant remeber which one.) all kinds of goodies they can either afford or dont even need. Its rediculuos. Isn’t that payment enough..futher more this is what you do to keep yourself popular in this industry you choose to be in. Designers giving you your free clothes to were..they are both fools.

  15. Ok if ur blackballed dont that mean they’re gonna say whatever to make that person look bad? Monique wasnt getting much work before her husband came into the picture. Monique didn want to go the level it takes to get all the rolls. Why was her show cancelled? Her show was waaaay better than Wendy Williams but she’s around goin from nighttime show to daytime. I dont believe it one minute. Whose not a bitch in hollywood Jay n B kill ppl steal ppl shit they still around. Only when u dont get down with the get down they ruin ur rep career n finances. So i wont join the rest of yal in down talkn her. She went on record many times sayin if u dont follow the rules u dont make it to the next level. This site should be ashamed for tryna help ruin her by reporting these shameful lies.

    • I meant roles. Oops. Also whoever running this site is being bought. This site use to be believable now its like ur bought n tellin bullshit cuz u used to be a truth tellin site now u too are gettin in bed wit massa unlcetom ass nigga bringn down ur own kind sleep wellf*cker.

  16. You do make a good point especially about Jay z and Beyonce and I respect it. I guess you would have considered me one of those bashers. But I must be honest with you..I care much for her for her approach..I found her to be to load at times. She can act for sure and I did like her acting in The Parkers

    • I heard that! why everything bad have to be black? Mo’nique has been WHITEBALLED!

  17. Back to the chitlin circuit for Monique. She better brush up on those stand up comedy routines!

  18. Comedians that have worked with Mo’Nique all complain about her “diva” attitude. From getting onstage and going 1 hour OVER her time..before introducing the headliner…to performing said headliners jokes before they come onstage…Mo’Nique is NO angel.
    How is she demanding that her “glam squad” fly first class???
    For me, that Oscar win of hers was a travesty. How hard was it for her to play an angry, mentally ill, abrasive black woman?? How was THAT a stretch??
