At around the 6:30 mark Mo'Nique starts to give details and refer to what happens to people that don't go to the hotel room in reference to how Lee Daniels "Empire" and "The Butler", Tyler Perry, Oprah Winfrey and Lion Gates Film have financially ruined her in the 8 years since winning an Oscar for "Precious".

IMO, the Netflix part and the Lee Daniels part are unrelated.
As far as the Netflix part, it's difficult to compare without more concrete numbers. I understand what she's saying but Mo'Nique can't compare what she was offered to any of the comics she mentioned. Apples and oranges. There's no good point of reference there.
Personally, I find her to be a better actress than a comedian so I hope someone gives her another opportunity. But to be shocked that people that asked you to do extra press to push the movie that you were in didn't hire you again when you declined is a bit odd. I don't know enough about that business to know whether that's normal or not. But Whoopi sure didn't seem surprised that that was the case. She seemed more surprised that Mo'Nique chose not to do the press.
