Comedian Luenell is not too proud to run after Netflix for a comedy special.

She posted to her Instagram a short and sweet elevator pitch about the kind of comedian she is saying, “Hey @netflix why not take a chance on me! Actually, you wouldn’t be taking a chance at All because humbly…I’m a Sure THING baby!”

But she was careful to not step on some heads on her way to the top she began her post with, “No shade at All but…”

 

A reference to comedian and actress Mo’Nique who has boycotted the streaming service after she claims they lowballed her for a comedy special and did not take her career as ,”the most decorated comedian,” into consideration.

Mo’Nique believes that Netflix is gender and race bias because fellow comedians Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle and Amy Schumer received over $10 million dollars for their special but Mo’Nique received and offer of $500,000 for hers.

The comedian even came onto the Tom Joyner Morning Show to explain the reasons for her boycott and what she plans on doing. During that interview, she took questions from the morning show audience who were curious to find out for themselves what she wanted out of the boycott.

 

Mo’Nique may be the, “the most decorated” but Luenell believes she’s, “The Original Bad Girl Of Comedy,” according to her Instagram post.

Well Luenell is definitely hustling, but what do you think? She should she get hers or back off?
