The internet beef between MoNique and D.L. Hughley is boiling over.

On Saturday night, MoNique hit the stage at The Comedy Explosion show at the Fox Theater in Detroit and said that Hughley refused to appear at the event if she were the headliner.

Yall dont understand the fight a bitch had to go through to stand in front of yall tonight, The Parkers star said at the beginning of a profanity-filled monologue, as captured on a fan video posted on YouTube .

Yall dont understand I was getting ready to walk the fuck up out of here, but I said, I cant let the people down, she added. Im 30-plus years in this motherfucking business and I dont open for no goddamn body. The contract said the headliner.

MoNique insisted that Hughley crossed the line, citing their history as comedians in the industry. She also claimed Hughley criticized her in the past while on one of his tours.

You fucked with the wrong one, MoNique said as the crowd erupted in cheers.

The Precious star, who confessed her energy is a little different because of the behind-the-scenes contract dispute, said that she never made it a point to start no shit with anyone throughout her career.

She went on to reference her public feuds with some big names, including Oprah Winfrey, Steve Harvey and Tyler Perry, before declaring that she doesnt bully anyone, but will stand up for herself.

After speaking her mind in a nearly 10-minute rant, she then said, Now lets start the motherfucking show. I feel better.

Hughley issued a fiery response to the criticism on Instagram Sunday alongside a photo of MoNique in the critically acclaimed film Precious.
