In 2019, she sued Netflix for gender and racial discrimination after the streaming service offered her $500,000 for a 2018 comedy special, a relatively small amount compared to the massive payments comics like Amy Schumer, Dave Chappelle, and Chris Rock received for their Netflix specials.

Mo’Nique countersued, saying that she wanted out of her lease because the home smelled like dog feces and urine and had an overflowing septic tank and a mold problem. The lawsuits were settled for an undisclosed sum in 2012.
