    Monique is a true inspiration to me as a black woman with a teenage daughter. I highly respect what she stands for and respresents. She has a strong foundation which is needed in her industry. hide show

    On my God!!! What a powerful, wonderful woman that has taken her place in this industry. I am definitely a true fan because Monique demonstrates what being black, beautiful, and full figured respresents. As I sat and watched the conclusion of Charm School, I cried because my heart went out to Monique and how see handled the situation with Larissa. I applauded how she embraced that young lady and displayed love and respect to Larissa and her mother. God is definitely in her life. I just wanted to say having a 17 year old daughter, I appreciated how she dealt with that situation because it could have taken a 360 turn but Monique turned a potentially disasterous situation into devoting her energy to making sure we(black women) embrace, respect, and love one another, not disrespect each other. Monique, I just wanted to say from woman to woman, as long as you keep God 1st in your life you have not yet begun to see the wondeful blessings he has instore for you!!! God bless you my beautiful black sister.

    I met Mo' at the pageant here in STL. She is pro black and not afraid to speak up. I told her I gave my spouse a kidney and I am starting a live organ donor organization for African Americans. she was interested I hope her assis. gave her my e-mails. hide show

    After the show in STL at the pageant MO'nique came into the audience and took pictures with the fans. She is a great person. I spoke with her about giving my husband a kidney. MO' invited us back to her dressing room. We told MO' our love story and how we were a perfect match, and GOD blessed me to be able give my husband a kidney. I told her that I was starting an organization for african americans and low income live organ donors. She was very interested in my vision. I hope that someday we cross paths again. Mo'nique is a lady and she loves her people, but I know when you are a celebrity you have to be sceptical of people. Over all MO' is real on every level. She is funny and always has a come back for somebody in the audience trying to be the comedian. She never has a moment of silence while on the stage. When she comes, she comes hard and I swear my jaws and stomach was sore when I left the comedy show. Mo'nique is about real talk. Mo' also has a way to make you believe you can do anything. That is why she is successful. Mo' is full of life and laughter. Do not let the purse fool you she wil throw down if she needs to. She is all the way live. Yes, she is a lady , but she is not to be messed with. Oh, and have you seen her crew, they ain't playing with you. I wish her much success and many more years of luaghter. Keep it up Mo' and 'FORGET EM' you know what I'm talking about!! Love and Peace, ELAINE and KENYATTA from the STL!!!!

    This rising star made her acting debut on the hit sitcom "The Parkers" alongside Countess Vaughn. She has since made a new movie called "Phat Girlz" and has had a beautiful set of twins. hide show

    I absolutely looove this actress because she acts with such conviction and passion. I have to give the girl her props. Because she loves who she is and is not afraid to say "Big is Beautiful". I understand where she is coming from because society says that the only acceptable actresses in Hollywood have to be skinny. That's not true everyone comes in all shapes and sizes. So she inspires myself because I'm not exactly "skinny". Anyway, she has been blessed with two beautiful twins. She did a great job in "Two Can Play That Game". I haven't got around to see "Phat Girlz" and I plan to see it. But she has done an equally great job in "Soul Plane" also alongside Kevin Hart and etc. She has been blessed with a great talent and ability. Well it's more of a skill.

    Mo'Nique is a very good actress and is an inspiration to women everywhere. hide show

    Mo'Nique is one of the greatest actresses of all time. She is comfortable in her own skin and not afraid to tell it like it is. She inspires people of all shapes and sizes to love themselves for what god made them and not what society says that they should be. From the beginning I took to her comedic talents and knew that she would be one of the ones to make it big. I took to her also because we were from the same neighborhood. I Congratulate Mo'Nique on her 2 new sons and know that she will continue to be a great mother and also a great wife. Congratulations Nikki and keep doing what you are doing becasue you are truly an inspiration to me!
