The Oscar-winning actress claims Fox didn't want her for the job because she was too difficult. But co-creator Danny Strong says she was never offered a role on the show. Mo'Nique says, however, that Lee Daniels "offered me the part of Cookie, and I have the emails and the sides to go along with it, and what he said was, 'I'm new to this TV thing. This is just a technicality… you have the role.' Okay. I have the emails. Well, four days have gone by because I didn't receive a phone call or another email for the location of where I was supposed to go to do this screen test."
