‘Who is loving Oprah and Gayle King? Each other. But we can’t say that s*** out loud,’ she added.
The tirade concluded with Mo’Nique telling the audience, ‘I’m too motherf***ing old to be scared of this bitch. I’m too old to be intimidated by this bitch. I’m too old to hold the motherf***ing truth.’
DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for Winfrey and Perry for comment.
Mo’Nique’s ongoing feud with Oprah and Tyler started when she claimed they blackballed her in Hollywood after she refused to attend certain press events for their 2009 film Precious.
She also previously claimed that omitting Oprah, Tyler and director Lee Daniels from her 2010 Oscars speech resulted in her being ‘blacklisted.’
In a recent development, Mo’Nique made an appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s “Club Shay Shay” podcast, alleging to possess a recording of Tyler confessing to speaking negatively about her, a claim he has strongly refuted.
Sharpe verified that he personally listened to the purported audio, although it wasn’t aired during the podcast. Mo’Nique maintains that the method she used to record her conversation with Perry was ‘legal.’
Regarding Oprah, Mo’Nique contended on the podcast that the esteemed celebrity frequently overstepped boundaries over the years, particularly when Oprah featured Mo’Nique’s brother Gerald on her daytime talk show.
Mo’Nique disclosed in 2008 that Gerald 𝓈ℯ𝓍ually abused her between the ages of 7 and 11.

This incident occurred shortly after Mo’Nique won the Oscar for Precious, during the onset of their behind-the-scenes conflict, and involved not only Gerald but also her parents and another brother.
Mo’Nique asserts that Oprah informed her beforehand about Gerald’s desire to appear on the show to ‘apologize’ and discuss child protection from predators.
Allegedly, Oprah offered Mo’Nique the opportunity to participate, but she declined, wishing to avoid any involvement with Gerald.
She said Oprah told her that if she didn’t want her brother to be on the show, she would cancel the show entirely, and Mo’Nique said she respected her for that.
However she started seeing commercials for the show and learned that not only Gerald would be on the show, but also her mother, father and other brother.
She also proceeded to raise doubts about Oprah’s relationship with Gayle King , hinting at a romantic involvement between the two; Oprah and Gayle in 2023

She claimed that Oprah never said they were going to be on the show, and the actress was in a ‘bad place’ with her mother.
Mo’Nique then went on to accuse Oprah of seemingly stealing two film roles from her after the Precious fallout.
She claimed that she was originally asked to play the role of Gloria Ganyes in Lee Daniels’ The Butler (2013) as well as Richard Pryor’s grandmother in Daniels’ yet-to-be-made biopic on the late standup star. Both roles ended up going to Oprah.
She speculated that the TV icon’s status as a billionaire has made it easier for her to get what she asks for from film studios.
