A fierce protector of her dancers and the people in her world, Goldie isn’t afraid to take care of business, no matter the cost.
In an interview with Variety Mo’Nique says about her character:
“You know what I love about Goldie? She’s the community’s hero, but the government’s villain. What I love about Goldie is she loves her community. She loves those girls. She loves the people around her, but she may not be what’s considered an upstanding person in the Christian community. She’s unapologetic about who she is.”
