Jess Hilarious confronts 'Breakfast Club' co-hosts on-air over maternity leave fallout

Jess is bringing the mess.

Jessica Moore, also known as Jess Hilarious, had a conversation with her fellow hosts on the “Breakfast Club” show. She talked openly with DJ Envy, Charlamagne tha God, and Loren LoRosa about feeling taken aback by some of the changes that had occurred at the station while she was on maternity leave.

“When I came back, it was weird,” she told them on Wednesday’s show.

The former “Wild ‘N Out” comedian said she initially wasn’t “too fond” of LoRosa, who stepped in for Moore when she was out on maternity leave last year and has still been at the job after she returned.

“We had a whole plan … how I pick her to fill in for me, right? I come back, she ain’t never leave,” Moore — who hosts “Jess With the Mess,” a recurring segment about daily news — said.

“Aight, cool that she [doesn’t] leave. But she’s on only during my segment. If she was meant to be a full-time host, move her in another way. Why she gotta be moved in on — ’cause nobody had a problem with ‘Jess With the Mess’ until she started reading right, until she started reporting,” she added.

“I wasn’t hired as a reporter, I was hired as ‘Jess With the Mess.’”

Moore, 33, said it wasn’t until LoRosa, who previously worked as a senior news reporter with TMZ, started “reading and delivering details” that her news segment on the radio show “wasn’t good enough” anymore.

The “Rel” alum slammed her co-hosts for continuing to make her look like the “villain” to fans.

However, Charlamagne, born Lenard McKelvey, advised Moore to “stop listening to the internet” and not to let people “trick you out [of] your position.”

Envy, whose real name is Raashaun Casey, chimed in, asking Moore: “If you had an issue, a problem, a situation or something that you felt, why you ain’t bring it to the team?”

“We have your back! … You are great at what you do,” the disc jockey, 47, added.

LoRosa, who later joined her co-hosts during the show, then attempted to hash out her issues with Moore, saying that she felt disrespected by her telling her to “shut up” and “hush” on air.

However, Moore told LoRosa that she continuously “overtalks” her during the radio show.

The on-air drama came a day after Moore went on Instagram Live to share her frustrations with fan speculation surrounding LoRosa’s continued presence after she returned from maternity leave last November.

“We supposed to be a team up that bitch. Not one person comes to my defense at all,” she vented Tuesday night.

“With this online s–t. I feel played with, so I’m gonna play with gas. I’ve been quiet a lot,” Moore added.

Moore joined “The Breakfast Club” with Charlamagne, 46, and Envy in January 2024 following Angela Yee’s departure.

At the time, the comedian said she was “looking forward to joining forces with one of the largest media platforms.”

“I’m confident that taking the third seat at ‘The Breakfast Club’ will show people that Jess Hilarious is not just comedy, but culture,” she added.
