- Not only is Mo'Nique riding high on winning the Washington, DC, Boston, Los Angeles and New York Film Critics' Awards, a SAG Award and a Golden Globe Award, having a top-rated late night talk show on BET and now an Academy Award, the highest honor an actor can achieve, but she is also readying herself to embark upon a highly anticipated comedy tour-Spread the Love Tour 2010. Joining Mo'Nique on this year's Spread The Love Tour will be her BET late night talk show counterpart comedian and actor Rodney Perry, comedian Tone- X, who will serve as the resident Man on the Street for the tour, and DJ Ant. Fresh off her historic Oscar win and becoming only the 5th African-American woman in history to win an Academy Award, Mo'Nique is wasting no time continuing to take the world by storm and tickling funny bones all at the same time.
"On this tour people can expect the kind of laughter that makes the bottom of their stomach hurt," said Mo'Nique. "And the type of love you'll never forget."
As it makes its trek across the country, Mo'Nique's Spread the Love Tour will hit 20 cities during its run. The tour will kick off in New Orleans, LA at UNO Lakefront Arena on Friday, March 19th and will conclude in Bridgeport, Connecticut in May. The show is being presented across the country by AEG Live with tickets on sale now in select cities.
