Even while co-headlining the long-awaited “The Boy Is Mine Tour” with back-to-back performances, singer Monica still finds time to discuss personal matters, including her children. Specifically, she’s revealing one rule she’s enacted that other parents online seem to agree with. But trust us when we say, this is just the beginning of this interesting topic.

For context, the “Angel of Mine” singer’s comments come amid a viral debate that was kicked off by a recent parenting video. In it, one single father, who goes by the name Mark Anthony Django, expressed how he wanted to host a sleepover for his young daughter with her friends at his house. When he approached one of the mothers to tell her about it in an attempt to get her to rally all the other moms, she abruptly stopped him mid-conversation and told him her daughter wouldn’t be coming because she wasn’t comfortable doing that.
“It just hurt my feelings to know that me as a man, I get labeled as that. And like I would never do nothing like that… to kids,” the man explained.
He then went on to share how he experienced a sexual incident with an adult woman when he attended a sleepover as a child and that made him more intentional about having a safe slumber party for his own child.
Yet and still, his explanation wasn’t enough to persuade other users once they started watching his video. And Monica in particular was one of the most notable faces to speak out in defense of the women.
Explaining how she doesn’t allow her own children to go to slumber parties, the “Everything to Me” singer revealed, “We don’t do sleepovers…My mother didn’t, I don’t either and that applied to my sons & daughter !” She added: “In his case inviting some moms to be there overnight to chaperone may work but that would be a no for me as well.”
Other women also backed up Monica, with one user writing on Instagram: “It’s 2025 folks ain’t letting no kids sleepover at friends anymore. Too much going on. Don’t take it personal.”
Another woman added, “sir please….millennials been canceled sleepovers…our kids ain’t going nowhere lmao.”
Even fellow dads chimed in on Instagram: “As a father, I’m completely against that idea. I didn’t even allow slumber parties when my daughters’ mother was home. All it takes is for one kid to go home and say something that gets twisted or misunderstood, and your whole life can get flipped upside down.”
He concluded: “In today’s world, it’s just not worth the risk. You can still make your kids feel special without putting yourself in a situation that could be taken the wrong way.”
However, this where this story takes a bit of a turn. Amid all the discourse, some users began looking into Anthony’s online history and found his mugshot stemming from a previous criminal record where he was initially facing charges of domestic abuse, battery, and child endangerment. Other users also found his OnlyFans account and X/Twitter account where he allegedly posts some “spicy” and sexual videos and cited that as further reasons why other parents wouldn’t want their kids around him specifically.
“To be fair he does sexual content on twitter, imagine a parent coming across that and you’re asking for my child to sleepover? And secondly with the world we live in it’s simply not ideal,” one user wrote on Instagram.
Said another on TikTok: “Mark Anthony literally has explicit adult content of his self on the Internet, spreading it and busting it wide open for the world to see, and he’s upset. No one wants their children at his house.”
Over on X/Twitter, one user expressed their feelings in the most blunt way possible.
“There’s a guy on TikTok whose also has a only fans and porn page on here, voiced his frustrations that his daughter is not able to have/ host a sleepover because he’s a single dad…. NIGGA ARE U GOOD? And you finding an issue about it making shit even more weird,” they said.
All the chatter eventually prompted Anthony Django to responded to the criticism in several videos on TikTok where he doubled down on his initial feelings and called other people out for trying to paint a “false narrative” of him.
