Mo'Nique didn't shave her legs as she walked down the Oscar red carpet in an electric blue silk Tadashi Shoji gown.
The 42-year-old Best Supporting Actress winner recently told Barbara Walters that she never shaves her legs because it is painful and her husband Sidney Hicks prefers hairy legs.
See Oscar night's biggest red carpet hits!
Asked if she stands by that statement, the Precious star told UsMagazine.com at Sunday's show: "I stand by that, mama! And my husband stands by it!"
Check out the biggest Oscar fashion faux pas of all time!
At Friday's Spirit Awards - where Mo'Nique also picked up an award - she told Us she wasn't upset that people have made a big deal about her hairy legs.
Flashback! See what Mo'Nique and other stars wore to this year's Golden Globes!
"Hey baby, they talk about Jesus! What makes me think they won't talk about me?" she told Us. "I think that people are entitled to their opinion. Baby, I love the hair on my legs -- and so does my man!"

50YOUR ALSO RIGHT BAJE1984
OMG!!! THAT IS NOT CUTE. WAIT A MINUTE WHO WHAT HAVE KNOWN HER GOWN WAS LIKE EXTRA LONGGG.
Wait...i read this right?? All ah wunna bout hey talkin bout she hairy legs fuh true? HAHA I want the ladies out there to know shaving your legs doesn't matter anywhere except the US..stupes. Hairy or not I'm glad for her. She was fantastic and very deserving. Get y'all heads out your @sses and breathe some FRESH air.
Open marriage or not! People are going to cheat either way. At least she knows about it most people don't! I wouldn't allow it, but whatever floats your boat Mo! Like she said..people are going to talk anyway, why should she worry herself about something she has no control over. Enjoy your award girl! LOL
She can't shave cuz she cant reach her damm legs...LMAO fat a$$ along with a BIG mouth..no wonder why he geys it from elsewhere
Wake up...he doesnt like ur hairy a$$ legs dummy, he just wants yo money
Ya I saw her interview with Barbara Walters. Her saying they are in an "open marriage". What a joke! He is likely doing some young gal with nice smooth legs! After seeing her interview I really don't like her much!
To Tonyaj: I hear what you are saying for real! she need to shut up already!
She's fooling herself if she thinks her husband likes hairy legs--if he's having sex outside the marriage, it's likely because he's not attracted to her. 100 to one, anyone he's having sex with has the opposite body type to hers...she could try electric razors, which shouldn't hurt.
If your man likes hairy legs then he must secretly like men. Thats all I'm saying!
Monique was trying to convey a point here. She was merely stating that their are more important things in life than smiling and profiling, winking and drinking. Also, that can win an Oscar based on talent not politics. Her acting skills won this Oscar not popularity. Most people do show emotions on their faces when they speak. She meant what she said, and tried her best to prove a point here. Where were you at that moment that you couldn't pick up on that MESSAGE!!
who cares???I was more disappointed in her angry in your face acceptance speech.
In elementary school, I had a teacher who had hairy legs under her hosiery. I used to think it was so pretty. Then I grew up and found out that people actually shaved their legs. I feel like it's a choice...Mo'nique has a lot of hair to be shaving, too. ha ha Congratulations!! Mo'nique. You may have hairy legs but you acted the heck outta that part. Loved it!
All I have to say is lighten up and get your head out of the gutters. This has nothing to do with us. AND we shouldnt be talkin about it on here anyway. Why the hell did someone ask her that? Its like asking how good someones sex life is. This is about as dumb as when Jennifer Love Hewitt shared her vajazzaling tips.
HAIRY LEGS MAY LOOK GROSS ON YOU!!!! NOT EVERY WOMAN'S LEG HAIR TURNS OUT TO BE THICK AND LONG YOU IDIOT!! SOME WOMEN'S LEG HAIR TURNS OUT TO BE THIN AND FINE LOOKING. AND NOT ALL FAT PEOPLE ARE GROSS EITHER. I'D RATHER BE FAT THAN TO LOOK LIKE I'M DYING... THE ONLY THING THAT WANTS A BONE IS A DOG.. AND THEY BURY THOSE IN THE YARD. I'D RATHER HAVE SOMETHING TO HOLD ONTO THAN TO GET MY EYE PUT OUT TRYING TO HUG IT!!!! AS FAR AS HER OPEN MARRIAGE THAT'S NOT HOW GOD INTENDED MARRIAGE TO BE. AND FOR THAT SHE WILL HAVE TO ANSWER TO GOD FOR. ALL OF YOU WHO ARE JUDGING HER, NEED TO CHECK YOUR OWN YARD BEFORE YOU SPEAK ON SOMEONE ELSE. GOD JUDGES THOSE WHO JUDGE OTHERS. WATCH YOURSELF.
its not an attack on her race people, why do you always make it out to be that? calm down. hairy legs ARE gross, no matter who you are. and on a side note..I think the marriage is open cause he plans to do whatever he wants anyway...and she cant stop him.
She has an open marriage because she is fat and gross and knows hes going to cheat anyway. He is with her for her money. And unshaven legs are just so gross and manly, huh, then again maybe they have an open marriage because he is gay and is still in the closet and he doesnt sleep with her anyway so why would she care if he strays, maybe thats why he likes hairy stems
Congrats!! I'm so Happy for YOU!!! If anyone deserves it, it's Monique. I don't blame her for not shaving her legs. I don't shave my legs either. If you man isn't complaining about or if he finds it SEXY like mine does KEEP IT!!!! YOU ARE FINE THE WAY YOU ARE.... DON'T PLEASE ANYONE BUT YOU MAN AND KIDS.... TO HECK WITH WHAT OTHERS THINK.... YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT...
I am glad that Mo'nique won; but if I can go one more day without her hearing her hairy legs and her open marriage, I will be truly blessed!
It hurts to shave her legs because she admitted-She ONLY did it 1 time in her life!!!!!!!! Her man ONLY likes her hairy legs-Because he's frigion GAY and it makes him feel like he's with another man!!!!!! Many GAY men will be with a fat woman..WHY????? Because they are so DESPERATE to have a man, they will do anything to keep one!!!!!!! You can be a fat woman and STILL have some d@mn PRIDE!!!!!!!!! Her OPEN marriage is just 1 FACT of what I am saying..DEAL WITH IT-TRUTH HURTS!!!!!!!
