Remember when Mo’nique claimed she was offered the role to play Cookie in ‘Empire’? Remember when no one believed her? Whoops! Turns out it was actually true. Mo’nique headed to Sway in the Morning and literally proved us wrong by reading the email exchanges.
One of the emails read:
“Good Afternoon, Lee Daniels had a conversation with Mo’Nique about his new television pilot for Imagine Tv/Fox called “Empire.” We would like to screen test her for the role of ‘Cookie.’ Please contact us with her television quotes, so that we can start a test, option, deal. We are tentatively looking at Monday, Feb 24 for the screen test.”
