The Shady Side of Tyler Perry

It seems like nothing will stop Tyler Perry. Even if the critics don’t love his movies, his loyal audiences certainly do - with or without his famous Madea character. However, the filmmaker and actor has dealt with controversy from day one, and some would say the way he has responded to said controversy has only made things worse.
From feuds with fellow directors to even an alleged one with Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry isn’t afraid to stand up for what he believes in - even though a lot of people don’t like what he’s standing up for. Let’s take a look at the shady side of Tyler Perry.

Furthermore, lumping our individuality into a small box. It’s great we have our own network but FUCK if you’re talking about stereotypes in the entertainment industry please talk about that first.

I have learned many things from his plays and shows. So I’m not seeing where it makes people look bad. I have aunts and uncles that act like some of the older characters in his shows. I have seen a lot of the drama that does be in his shows in my own family. We ain’t perfect we have our kinks, but like in his plays, we learn how to come together and overcome our problems as a family.

Roosevelt ware right. I’m like i don’t see how people are quick to attack his stuff, but continue to support shows like Love and Hip Hop and Black Ink that represent us horribly. Yes i believe we should be represented better in the media. However, that does not mean we should be sugar coated, and depicted as if we do not have no flaws and we’re just so perfect. No we have kinks, we have imperfections, we struggle, and we fuss and fight as well. We have crazy grannies lol or aunts. We have, or may have known, or even know people dealing with some of the issues he addresses in his play. Those things do happen and we shouldn’t hide those things or pretend they do not exist. We should address them. Like Tyler does. He evens takes it a step forward and shows people how we overcome those problems

[@rooseveltware8651]

Charnice LaGrone I was just talking about that the other day I can't see how people would want to watch drama and false character on TV and then when there is someone that's all about truth and does movies that talks about everyday life struggles that we go through and and coming together as Gods people then and like you said it best people want to be about support drama TV shows SMH

He also needs to learn how to take corrective criticism. It doesn't hurt to listen even when you think you have all the answers.

This is no shade..., since I, too, work behind the sets in the industry. But in saying that, why not give the "average" man and the "average" woman an opportunity to take home a check also, being that more than half of those usually casted by Mr. Perry are already financially set? This comes with the deepest respect to Mr. Perry and is criticism yes. (but constructive criticism); Ironically, I did not go searching for this video. It was on my news feed upon logging on.

I like Oprah, but let’s be real...she is merely a person, like you and me, who happens to have done well professionally and has a great amount of money. And, all of that boils down to the fact that none of that makes her any better than you and I, and yes, even Tyler Perry. Last I heard, Jesus is the only one who is perfect, so if Tyler disagreed with Oprah on something, it was perfectly acceptable to bring it to Oprah’s attention. {On a side note}: As far as that “toe to toe” part, I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that because SO much in Hollywood is clearly exaggerated or even fabricated, I think I’ll just put this in the “yeah, whatever”🙄 category...

Nicki Swift your info on Tyler Perry's treatment of Mo'nique omitted quite a bit of the story. He and Oprah were not responsible for the downfall of Mo'nique. In point of fact the one to blame is her hubby/manager and Mo'nique herself. In the years that followed her Oscar win she had repeatedly demonstrated a "Diva" like behavior. For more info to back up my statement watch "The View" episode where she talks with Whoopie on her so called "blackbalding" and pay particular attention to Whoopie's reaction to Mo'nique's claim to being a victim of the Hollywood machine. Also look up Jawn Murray's video on his KZbin page where he criticizes her actions while on the set of a Christmas movie special,(he backs up his comments with a letter written by the producer of that movie), she made in I think 2014. I could also advise to simply google Mo'nique and there you will get even more details on her relationship with Netflix and much more. It's a real pity because Mo'nique could have been a power to reckon with if not for her hubby's poor management of her career.

Smh! Everytime always got something negative to say when someone is on top!!!! Let's keep it 💯 THIS MAN PUTS PEOPLE TO WORK!!!!! folks you hadn't seen in 10 years!!! End up in a Tyler Perry film!!! I know they say Spike Lea did it first...but Mr Perry has past Spike!!!! I'm not a big fan of Spike Lee in my opinion some of his movies just don't make no sense to me...anyways I respect anyone who puts our people to work! And some are doing very well...I think he makes good movies..if you really watch there's a message in everyone one of them.... Then you have these idiots saying he's only in it for the money damn right he's in it for the money...duhhhhh don't you work for a pay check! Smh...

[@kaylagaloretv8139]

Sanders if the actor already has a name he pays them big but actors he find himself barely makes anything. His movies are based on black pain. It’s 2020, it’s time to change it up

[@fairlyliterary4771]

The fact he gives Black actors & crew work is fantastic but you don't want just any old thing put out there especially if it's not a good look for us. Nobody's hating they just want him to do better.

[@fergusondemetrius]

He's employing black people but at the expense of black integrity if that makes sense

[@daveinwright643]

word I don't understand I think it's the dress aspect people can't get over eddie Murphy and Martin did nobody said shit and like you all said he could do a lot better sometime I feel he goes overboard but for the most part when he makes the plays and tv shows people keep saying stereotype I don't think so I think he hit a lot of stuff on the money some movies have to do with a mother who was sick and had ungrateful children who didn't realize what they had till it was gone "big happy family"

[@daveinwright643]

he also tapped on old people not being able to collect their retirement income after years of hard work where black people through a rent party "laugh to keep from crying" one where a woman put all her trust in a man for him to divorce her and kick her out of their house "diary of a mad black woman" "a fall from grace"a lonely old woman falls for a con artist duo mom and son stealing her house and leaving her broke the list goes on he OD sometime but he has true messages it's not stereotypes it's real life shit he touches on now the oval and sistas he needs to revamp bad

[@Swypaworld77]

[@DrArthurCGarp]

Spike Lee has some stereotypes but Tyler Perry portrays all dark skin men as bad and light skin women as sneaky. If the black man isn't bad then he either needs a black woman to keep him honest or he becomes a bad black man. Both are successful but I think Tyler Perry makes movies for black women that hate black men.

[@deetheefoodie]

Spike is the GOAT.... Tyler should take note!

[@jackiecoleman8007]

No! He is only human. Empowerment and employment is done from his heart. My Madea made us happy and kept us laughing. I feel no shame... I feel elated to introduce to the world the the endearment of MADEA. He introduces concept we can embrace through character education. I thank Tyler!

I am proud of Tyler Perry and will continue to support him. I know when I watch his movies, I am not going to hear cursing , not going to see nudity,do you know how refreshing that is, usually when most of the càst is black there are big drug deals going on. His movies are not about DRUGS !

The man is a gifted writer, owns his own company and is wealthy....As long as its legal he can do what he wants, write what he wants, produce what he wants and give money to what he wants. The only thing shady here is people want to force their will on Tyler Perry. Oh and I hate unions too so I dont fault him there.

[@jerrytaylor821]

Don't hate the player hate the game. It's obvious Tyler Perry made a business move by letting the writers go. Hollywood considers Tyler Perry Studios a direct threat to their position in the entertainment industry. So they do what they do spin lies.

Tyler Perry is a truly gifted man to write the movies and the characters... I admit I have laughed so hard watching his movies that I almost p'd my pants, BUT I also have cried with the characters. I'm a born again Christian... I truly believe that Tyler is able to bring blacks/whites together in a believable manner that touches those who are NOT racist... and brings Christianity, love, pain, humanity, real life events, drugs, etc and he shows how God, Jesus, and you can help save yourself... I don't like plays... but I've watched and purchased every movie.... I would love to meet Tyler and thank him for sharing his gift that God gave him.... he's definitely touched my life. May God continue to bless us all with Tyler Perry movies.... he could do my life, I have the old timers no racial mixing, being molested by family, having a mixed child that part of the family don't want, depression, and much more that is all true.

[@tgrice601]

Nothing went down with Own him and Oprah are still great friends

[@Closedbyaisha]

They did have a dispute about the directing of his movies. Oprah had suggested to him that he shouldn't direct everything himself, try letting someone else do it for you, but Tyler Perry wasn't having that, as mentioned in this video, directs everything himself. Now as far as him and Oprah not being friends, I don't think that is true. It's just a Veteran (Oprah) giving advice to a friend (Tyler Perry). Oprah was trying to suggest using some of her producer and directors, and he said NO.

You know, I don't mind that he parodies his life and the life of characters. It's just not done very well. There's a reason he plays those characters himself. He doesn't trust anyone else to play those characters and he's a fucking egomaniac. Makes complete sense. He wants to be a trailblazer. He just doesn't know how to do it well. Maybe he should hang out with Dave Chapelle. He could give Tyler Perry a few tips on how to execute this style of comedy and how to do it well.

Hi

[@Larry11181]

I don't care for Perry's work but it seems like the most of the people complaining about him are women. Black women at that. To me it validates my theory that black women just cannot be happy. Sometimes well enough is well enough. Perry makes all these movies and plays that glorify women so you would think black women would be happy with that and they were for about 10+ years. Now they have turned on him and scrutinize his every move looking to pounce on anything. They want him to tell his stories their way rather than them creating a platform to tell their own stories.

[@traneawilson6024]

Plz I loved Temptation...it was a wake up call for married people that catersrophic things can happen when you are unfaithful. It encourages ones to work things out and savior your marriage if at all possible. Beware when dealing so close to the opposite sex that you know don't respect your VOWS. We all know that the movies he makes he was to really hit hard to bring the message home and in today's society you have to go hard to make this point. It was very important message!

A person can do a thousand awesome things but it's that one thing that is questionable which the person finds themselves judged by. When dealing with people the first question you should ask is "who are you, what do you stand for and what have you done?" Tyler Perry is a man that lives for God. He has gone out of his way to help many people personally. That's something his attackers can't say. As for the Writers Union, check this out: (*** 10. The Company must make contributions in the amount of 8.5% of your compensation for employment services (and sales when combined with employment) to the Producer-Writers Guild Pension Plan, and contributions in the amount of 10.5% of such compensation (as of May 2017) to the Writers Guild-Industry Health Fund. (Article 17) [NOTE: The Pension Plan and Health Fund are separate from the WGA. Requests for employer reporting forms and questions regarding the Pension and Health should be directed to their offices at [phone] or [phone], or 2900 W. Alameda Ave. Suite 1100, Burbank, CA 91505, or www.wgaplans.org.] 11. The Company must pay you appropriate residuals and other compensation when your project is released to various markets (free television, pay television, basic cable, videocassette or DVD, new media, interactive games, etc.). (See, e.g., Articles 15, 51, 58, 64, and the Sideletter on New Media Reuse) ***) I can see why he wouldn't want to mess with them money wise, would you. Also who is better to relay the message you want to give, but yourself. As for the movie Temptation, awesome!!! It showed what can definitely can happen. In a world with websites like "Tinder", "Ashley Madison", "Sugar daddies" and "Whatsyourprice" people have forgotten how dangerous it is. There are two people at my job who can't stand the smoking warning commercial with the woman with the hole in her neck. Why, it's because they both smoke. In so much of a way cheaters don't like the movie "Temptation". Regardless if you like Tyler Perry or not. Please pray for him, we all can use prayer. And please pray for me, thank you.
