As the story unfolds with Lee Daniels and Dame Dash disagreement continues to unfold, Dash’s accusations against Daniels began to sound vaguely familiar. In fact, fans drew comparisons between the complaints of the legendary businessman and blackballed comedian, Mo’Nique. 

Despite the comparisons though, Daniels said the situations are completely different. In fact, he says the only person responsible for Mo’Nique getting blackballed from Hollywood is Mo’Nique. 

Daniels had an interview with Raq Rants where he addressed the comedian’s claim that he, Tyler Perry and Oprah shut her out of the movie business after her Oscar-winning performance in “Precious.” He says, “Mo’Nique – I fought hard for her to get that job. I wanted her to get that job and she was paid her money,” he said, as he referenced her disrespect in last year’s stand up. “She was paid the money for the budget that we had. And for her to bad mouth myself and Tyler and Oprah is disrespectful and it’s wrong. She’s wrong, she’s out of pocket.”
