Monica is pushing back against Ray J after he campaigned for a joint tour between her and Brandy.
On Wednesday, March 20, the veteran R&B singer called out Brandy's brother in a lengthy message she posted to her Instagram Story. She responded to comments Ray J made during his interview with The Breakfast Club. In response to Charlamagne Tha God's question, the reality TV star said he's still pushing for Brandy and Monica's long-awaited joint tour and claimed "The Boy Is Mine" singers could bring in $100 million each.
“I’ve been repeatedly contacted about interviews ect where my name and tour possibilities are being discussed!" Monica began.

“I’ve not received any contracts or calls about said tour," she continued. "@rayj I’m kindly asking you to stop speaking on me in public! A private conversation would both be necessary and respectful! Brandy is a LEGEND! She’s one with an extensive back catalog that I deeply respect & a voice sent from heaven. The conversation being had without she and I is beginning to muddy the waters severely! She and I are both consummate professionals that share a massive recording as well as an entire era! Please allow this to remain positive and beautiful! Neither should open, we should give someone else that opportunity and co-headline a massive shared stage if this is to ever happen. Any further convo should be private!”
The response came after the clip from Ray J's interview on The Breakfast Club went viral. Prior to his appearance on the show, Ray J tried to fuel hype for the idea by leaving an enticing message in the comment section of her recent Instagram Live.
“Brandy/Monica tour – please let’s make history, one run for the fans – 100m plus for the both of you," he wrote.
Later on, Ray J extended an apology to Monica for speaking on the subject. Watch Ray J's interviews with The Breakfast Club and Way Up With Angela Yee below.
