Mo’Nique Defends Roseanne Barr For Racist Tweet 

You every just have to shake your head in disappointment at someone? Well thats how a lot of people are feeling towards Mo’Nique

Mo’Nique decided to defend Roseanne Barr’s racist tweets about former White House advisor, Valerie Jarrett, which led to the cancelation of her show ‘Roseanne’.

“We’ve all said and done things baby that we wish we could take back and swallow and say, ‘Oh.’ But when you’re in the public eye, you can’t and it’s out there..But to put the title of ‘racist’ on her…” said Mo’nique.”

Mo’Nique felt the need to stick up for her “sister” because at one point in time Roseanne supported her when nobody else did.

“I remember when I had the ‘Mo’Nique Show,’ and there were big, major black superstar talent that had white representatives and they told their talent, ‘That show is too black and we really don’t want you to go on there,’“ Mo’Nique said. “But there was a white woman named Roseanne Barr that showed up for me. … And they didn’t hear the conversation when the cameras wasn’t rolling. … That woman was giving me some beautiful words.”

Roseanne has taken to several different platforms to “apologize” for her tweet, each time coming off crazier and less sincere than the time before.
