Club Shay Shay·EntertainmentMonique Reacts To Mojo Brookzz Working With Tyler Perry I CLUB SHAY SHAY
TL;DR
Mojo Brookzz shares how Mo'Nique mentored him, separated personal beefs from his career, and congratulated him on his Tyler Perry show.
Key Points
- 1.Mo'Nique kept her personal beef with Tyler Perry separate from Mojo's career. Despite her known issues with TP, she called Mojo to congratulate him when he did the Miss Governor show directed and produced by Tyler Perry, saying she was watching it that night.
- 2.Mo'Nique's core mentorship philosophy is 'my fight ain't your fight.' She advised Mojo that regardless of her feelings about Oprah or others, he should take those opportunities — and recently texted him asking 'Baby, how does fame feel?' to check in.
- 3.Mojo's older sister Shannon made him promise to 'do something' from her hospice bathtub. Shannon, 32, had survived multiple gunshot wounds but died after a boyfriend shot her — the emergency surgery opened her up, causing her cancer to spread rapidly.
- 4.Mojo started comedy four months after his sister's death in 2013. His very first show had only four people — his mom, cousins, and two strangers — making it a deeply personal rather than professional debut.
- 5.A brutal bombing in front of 300 people with someone yelling 'get your ass off stage' hardened Mojo's resolve. He sat through every comedian mocking his performance, and when the girl he was with asked 'you okay?' driving home, he knew exactly how bad it had gone.
