It seems like the Lee Daniels, Mo’Nique drama is letting up anytime soon. After comparing her struggle to be treated fairly in Hollywood to MLK’s fight for civil rights, The Precious star continued her personal press tour on TMZ.

If you’ve been keeping up with the back and forth nonsense, you know the story. Lee Daniels told Mo’Nique she was blackballed. Mo’Nique doesn’t know why she was blackballed….

During her appearance on TMZ Live, Mo was asked is she thinks Daniels is mad she didn’t thank him at the Oscars when she won “Best Actress” to which she responded, “We had a conversation after the Oscars and he was heated. He said how could you not say my name at the Oscars?”

Listen to her response, below:
