Judge Mathis’ remarks come on the heels of Mo’Nique and D.L. Hughley renewing their grievances with each other after her scathing “Club Shay Shay” interview.

In an impassioned plea, Judge Greg Mathis has urged Black entertainers to cease public feuds, branding them an affront to Black culture. Mathis, who didn’t explicitly name Katt Williams and Mo’Nique, referenced their recent high-profile disputes that have ignited widespread social media debate.
Mathis accused Hollywood executives of covertly relishing the spectacle, expressing his disappointment with the industry’s complicity. He emphasized that such public altercations are not the norm in other cultures, implying a double standard.
Acknowledging his own occasional courtroom outbursts, Mathis clarified that these moments are carefully edited and used for entertainment in his TV shows. Yet, he underscored the importance of resolving personal issues privately, highlighting the negative impact of public feuds on Black culture and society.
Mathis’ call to action implores celebrities to lead by example, upholding dignity and unity. His message serves as a reminder that public figures carry a significant responsibility, influencing societal norms and attitudes.
As the echoes of Mathis’ words resonate, it’s evident that the ramifications of public feuds transcend mere entertainment. They shape perceptions, foster stereotypes, and influence the cultural narrative. By advocating for private resolutions, Judge Greg Mathis is championing a cause that extends beyond the realm of celebrity—it’s a call for respect, unity, and the preservation of Black culture’s dignity.
I don't understand why is it that whenever men like Katt Williams spill industry tea all you hear it's crickets. However when women like Mo'Nique speak their truth about how they're treated they are seen as problematic and s**t starters.
If people in the black community were using their powers for good we wouldn't need people like Mo'Nique and Katt spilling tea about some of these messy figures who a lot of people love to put on this high pedestal, such as Oprah, Tyler, Kevin Hart, etc.
It seems to me that Judge Mathis, who last I remembered read Wendy Williams down to the ground on her own show years ago is more concerned about how spilling kitchen table talk on social media makes black people look in the eyes of white folks, instead of dealing with the real issue - which is black people in Hollywood running around with this crab in a barrel mentality and sabotaging other people's careers for their own personal gain.
