Mo'Nique won an Oscar, and Netflix offered her $500,000 for a stand-up special. Amy Schumer got $11 million for the same thing.

When she asked why, Netflix told her, "We don't go off of resumes."

In the video below, she tells the whole conversation herself.

Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle got $20 million a special, she says. Schumer went back and got $2 million more. Mo'Nique had won the Oscar in 2010 for Precious, a role she says paid her $50,000.

Netflix's explanation, in her words: Schumer had sold out Madison Square Garden twice and had a big movie that summer. And by the way, "we believe Mo'Nique is a legend too."

She asked her fans to cancel Netflix in January 2018. Most of the internet laughed.

Netflix said its opening offer was fair. In 2019 she sued for race and gender discrimination. A federal judge let the case go ahead, and it settled in 2022.

In April 2023, Netflix released her special, My Name Is Mo'Nique. Five years after "we don't go off of resumes."

Was Mo'Nique worth more than $500,000, or was Netflix paying for ticket sales, not trophies?

Every day: a famous name, the real offer, and who got paid more.

Today, I’m honored to share that President Obama is supporting our campaign for the U.S. Senate.

President @BarackObama & I both started as organizers in our communities, because we immediately understood that real changes come from regular folks joining the fight.
