To the chagrin of the many detractors who continue to write her off, Mo’Nique has rebounded in a big way.
The Academy Award, Golden Globe and NAACP Image Award-winning funny woman will host her first stand-up special in almost 10 years.
On Friday, Showtime announced that Mo’Nique & Friends: Live from Atlanta will air Feb. 7 at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

Filmed at the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta, the hour-long special—executive produced with her husband/manager Sidney Hicks—features a variety of talented newcomers including Prince T-Dub, Just Nesh, Tone-X and Correy Bell alongside veteran comedian Donnell Rawlings (of Chappelle’s Show fame).
This is great news for diehard fans of the once super-sized comedienne who had a white-hot career during the early to mid-aughts with a hit TV show, best-selling books, sold-out comedy tours and films that were successful at the box office.
