According to Deadline, Mo’Nique accuses the defendants of not sharing “The Parkers” sitcom revenue with performers. “Today we filed a lawsuit to make sure that we are fairly paid [the] money that we are owed for The Parkers,” wrote Mo’Nique on Instagram.
“Actors rely on the good faith of Hollywood companies to honor their profit participation agreements. The Parkers was a huge success and continues to be a source of revenue through syndication and streaming channels.” Mo’Nique continued saying,“The executive producers of The Parkers took legal action for the same concerns that I have, and they’ve already settled.”
She added, “To further make my point, the Executive Producers of ‘The Parkers’ took legal action for the same concerns that I have, and they’ve already settled. Unfortunately, all too often, talent gets kept in the dark. We’re looking forward to shedding some light on the subject! I LOVE US 4REAL!!”
Her comedy special Mo’Nique: My Name Is Mo’Nique is available on Netflix.
