Doesn’t Monique just glow in this picture? Her speech for her Golden Globe win set the tone for the evening, and showed everyone that there are many sides to her. (My favorite part? When she said, "I’m shaking when I tell y’all I’m in the midst of my dream. Just beautiful!)
I used to question being funny. I felt that being funny in my writing wasn’t enough. But I’ve learned that being funny is not only natural for me, it is a gift. I gift I plan on using wisely.
I say all that to say—we all know Monique is funny. That’s how she started out. But who knew she would be a trailblazer, (The first African-American woman to host her own late-night talk show. Take that Jay Leno!), and had the courage and guts to play this role so well?
I didn’t. But she showed people wrong, and continues everyday to show people that she is more than just a joke-teller. This woman has many sides.
Thank you Monique and Congrats on your success!
