MeToya Monroe of ‘Sorority Sisters’: Delta Sent Me Casting Info! Denies Mona Scott-Young’s Involvement In Show [INTERVIEW]
Metoya: Yes ma’am. 2 years ago I think June 13th.
theJasmineBRAND.com: Do you think that you were edited fairly?
Metoya: I do, I’m real real. I don’t like the blame and editing. I don’t personally so I feel like I was edited the way that Metoya is and I don’t even have anything bad to say about it.
theJasmineBRAND.com: What surprised you most about the entire process?
Metoya: Filming, I just had to get used to the stop and go and the unexpected. I think for me, because I’ve never done reality TV before, the thing that I think is in every reality tv show is that element of surprise. That part is where you get the real reaction.
theJasmineBRAND.com: Did the network tell you why they decided to abruptly end the show?
Metoya: Yeah, they did. It was mainly because people were judging the book on the first chapter instead of reading the whole book. So they thought that it would be best if they put the entire product out while they could. Which I appreciated that instead of actually just cancelling it. You know, just dump the rest of the story. I appreciated them for allowing our whole story to be seen by the world.
theJasmineBRAND.com: Did VH1 say it was because of the controversy or was it because advertisements pulled out?
Metoya: I think it was more of the backlash that they wanted people to see the whole product. We didn’t have a problem with the ratings. Everybody knows that right now. The ratings was never an issue. With the backlash this was their way of wanting to show the world that this is what we’ve done. This is the final product. It isn’t really as bad as you’re all thinking.
theJasmineBRAND.com: Were you surprised at the backlash about the show?
Metoya: Yes, I was. From the first episode it was like attack-vill. Instead of it being received like any other show, we’re going to start out with a problem. You’re going to see the clash in the beginning and see how you work through that the rest of the show. It was like immediate attack.
theJasmineBRAND.com: What do you think the public’s biggest issue was with the show?
Metoya: The misconception of representing an organization on a show because of a name. What people fail to realize is that is what brought us all together. What else did we all have in common? Yes, we are all business owners but how else would we meet.
theJasmineBRAND.com: Did you all receive death threats?
Metoya: That is very true. Some of them were other greeks. Mostly they were greeks, people who were non-greeks didn’t really get why people were so upset.
theJasmineBRAND.com: Before or during the filming of the show did you contact your chapter or headquarters to say you were doing the show?
Metoya: No, I did not contact nationals or headquarters. I did inform a few members of my chapter other than my line sisters. A few of them considered it but I’m sure they’ll never tell you guys that or the public.
theJasmineBRAND.com: Were you surprised that you were expelled?

I find it ironic that Delta actually sent her info about them casting for the show. But when things got controversial, they threw her under the bus.
Yes that is, but she didn’t actually show the letter. It could have been informing her about the show and letting her know the consequences of participating. I had read about that show some time ago myself. I was like they (the greeks) are going to shut that down. They may have had high ratings, but without the advertisers support, the funding was not there which is likely why the show got cancelled.
She stated that her chapter sent her the email, not the National body. The only person who can speak for Delta is the National President or someone she appoints. From what I understand their chapter has a mass email list. More than likely the email was sent out with very little thought.
Metoya hasn’t been a part of that Chapter since somewhere around ’01-03. Once you are no longer in a chapter, you don’t get official chapter mail. Maybe an undergraduate Soror sent an email on her own to a list of former alums, but she definitely didn’t receive anything official. You can’t remain a member of your undergraduate Chapter once you are no longer enrolled at the University. Also, we don’t know what the email said, but I can assure you it wasn’t an endorsement by Delta Sigma Theta. At worst, it may have been an email from one of the young undergrads telling that they heard somebody was casting a show about the Sororities. I can see how that could possibly appeal to a naive 19 or 20 y/o.
She got the email from her chapter not the National HQ which is who is ultimately responsible for any disciplinary action. As a grown up you seek opportunities and bear the brunt of those decisions. When the original casting call went out quite some time ago nothing official had to come out from any of the organizations featured. Those of us that were active and attending meetings knew any participation in said show would more than likely get you punished in some form or fashion. Heck you can’t use our letters for background folks on tv shows without permission–that’s part of what slowed up Stomp the Yard because it never got permission to use any of the organizations who are members of the NPHC. From the outside looking it all of this may look very arbitrary but trust me when I say this shouldn’t have shocked a single person who took part in the show. The fact that it has is what I find slightly amazing.
I lost a whole lot of respect for the Greeks. I find them fake !!! How can you stand up when it comes to a show that you feel makes your organization look bad, but wont Stand up against other shows like Love and Hip Hop, Housewives etc? What this tells me is that some letters are more important. Please fake fake fake. The truth of the matter is people are going to people no matter what. I went to school with people who acted just like that. Half of the Greeks that was against this show watch Love and Hip Hop etc .
I totally agree with you. Love and hip a hop featured a ratchet delta. Yet, they love her so much they’ve given her her own show. Sorority sisters was far classier than the aforementioned.
HERE IS THE REAL REASON…This entire ordeal was about money and jealousy. Wonya Lucas President of TVOne and AKA member wanted Sorority Sisters for the TVOne network. However the plans fell through when VH1 outbid them for the show. That’s when Roland Martin host of NewsOne and ??? member, along with the help of his ??? brothers Lawrence Ross and Reynoir Lewis took to Twitter to trash the show. That’s how the footage was leaked to the internet. TVOne had access to it. So Roland and his brothers proceeded to slander the Ladies and rile up the Greeks. After Roland Martin got the Greeks riled up Lawrence Ross told the Greeks don’t watch we will watch and let you know what advertisers to target. That in itself was a move of deception, because he knew if the Greeks watched the show they would find that the members of ??? Roland Martin, Lawrence Ross, and Reynoir Lewis were lying; And just like the Jim Jones Cult the Greeks obeyed and let these lying member of ??? use them to do their bidding. Then when you ask the Greeks why they didn’t watch it, they repeat the speaking points they heard from the 3 lying ??? members. You know…the same tactics Republicans use against President Obama. HOW CAN A BUNCH OF ADULTS ALLOW SOMEONE TO GIVE THEM THEIR OPINION. THAT HASN’T HAPPEN SINCE THE SLAVE MASTER. SOME OF THESE GREEKS ARE PROGRAMMED WITH THE WILLIE LYNCH LETTER SYNDROME. They ended a show that displayed real disputes, relationships, triumphs, failures, parenting, business, entrepreneurship, community service, and culminated with SISTERHOOD.

The title of this article is misleading. When did she deny Mona Scott-Young’s involvement during the interview???
If you listen to the full interview, we ask her about reports that Mona was involved in the show and she comments on it.
