Monique's Brother Apologises for Molestation

On Monday 19th April, Mo'nique's brother Gerald Imes appeared on Oprah Winfrey's show to apologise for molesting her as a child. Monique revealed this shocking truth two years ago.

Upon watching this clip what struck me was how mechanical and robotic he came across. It begs the question - Is he really sorry? Or is he just looking for fame and money? - especially as Mo'nique recently won an Oscar for her performance in Precious. The film storyline, ironically, is based on the eponymous character who suffers molestation by an older male family member.

Is he sorry? Or is there a hidden agenda? Wanna hear your thoughts..

  1. first things first... i ADORE mo'nique =D

    he doesn't seem sorry at all. he doesn't seem to even acknowledge what he's done. i found the whole thing disturbing

    what i found more disturbing is that oprah had him on her show. what was she thinking?
