\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tWhoopi Goldberg has made headlines for her controversial remarks just as often as she has for her storied, EGOT-winning career. The View cohost found herself in hot water throughout 2022 after making antisemitic comments about the Holocaust that led to a two-week suspension from the long-running ABC talk show in February. The Ghost star, who [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cI was also intrigued to learn that in 1993 there was an attempt to sue you regarding [the 1995 movie] Theodore Rex<\/em> because it was alleged that you had made a verbal commitment to the film. Your defense was that you never actually committed,\u201d she continued. \u201cYou can imagine how confused I was when I discovered this, especially since when I explained that my only contractual obligation was to [Precious<\/em> director] Lee Daniels<\/strong>, it didn\u2019t sway your opinion enough to stop you from saying you could have \u2018schooled\u2019 me on doing what they expected from me.\u201d<\/p>\nWhile Mo\u2019Nique won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for Precious<\/em> in 2010, she later alleged that she was \u201cblackballed\u201d in Hollywood following the movie. She claimed during her 2018 appearance on The View<\/em> that her career declined in part because of Daniels, studio Lionsgate and producers Tyler Perry<\/strong> and Oprah Winfrey<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\u201cEven though Tyler Perry privately admitted on audio that he was wrong for saying I was difficult to work with, to this day he has not publicly corrected it,\u201d she wrote on Monday. \u201cPeople like Tyler Perry refused to take responsibility, while I had to take responsibility for refusing to sign up for an act of slavery against my will.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe worst part is that another woman chastised me on a platform meant to empower women,\u201d Mo\u2019Nique continued.<\/p>\n
She added, \u201cBut what is interesting is hearing you now speak about the importance of standing up for what\u2019s right. My question is: is your stance truly about standing up against wrong, or is it about standing with the \u2018right people?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll await your reply about whether you still feel you schooled me correctly,\u201d Mo\u2019Nique continued. \u201cBut I caution you: if you admit you were wrong, you know you\u2019d be going against all the \u2018right people.\u2019 So, are you willing to do what\u2019s right for the little girls coming behind us, or is your position still \u2018F\u2019 the little girl coming behind us? I look forward to finding out. Because I was the little girl coming behind you.\u201d<\/p>\n
