And we’re gonna f—ing do it again!"
This reunion between Daniels and Mo’Nique follows a long period of tension between the two.
In 2015, the comediantoldThe Hollywood Reporterthatshe was “blackballed"after winning her Best Supporting Actress Oscar.
“And he said to me, ‘Mo’Nique, you’ve been blackballed.’
And I said, ‘I’ve been blackballed?
Why have I been blackballed?’
And he said, ‘Because you didn’t play the game.’
And I said, ‘Well, what game is that?’
And he gave me no response.”
In a statement toTHR, Daniels said, “Mo’Nique is a creative force to be reckoned with.
Her demands throughPreciouswere not always in line with the campaign.
This soured her relationship with the Hollywood community.
I consider her a friend.
I have and will always think of her for parts that we can collaborate on.
In 2018, Daniels toldTMZ, “It breaks my heart that she feels that we blackballed her.
No one blackballed her.
Mo’Nique blackballed her.”
Now, however, it seems they have put the bad blood behind them.
Both Daniels and Mo’Nique shared photos to their respective Instagram pages Friday night confirming their beef has been squashed.
