Tyler Perry's Monumental Moment!



Tyler Perry has gone where no black man has gone. He has opened a Film and TV studio in Georgia! This is the first African American studio! His launch went off yesterday with a slew of attendants. According to People.com the guest list included, "Oprah Winfrey, Sidney Poitier, Ruby Dee, Cicely Tyson, Louis Gossett, Jr., Holly Robinson Peete, Tracey Edmonds, music mogul L.A. Reid, singer John Legend, America's Next Top Model winner Eva Pigford, not to mention baseball legends Hank Aaron and Barry Bonds – among others. Will Smith had this to say about Tyler Perry, "This is an American first, and the first in the universe," said the I Am Legend star. "There is something happening in America and in the world that's powerful. He is not letting anyone get in his way. "Those are the wonderfully naïve, arrogant, humble, powerfully American concepts that make things powerful in this country. It's big." The entertainment included, Mary J. Blige, Patty LaBelle and Gladys Knight. Kudos to Tyler Perry and all African Americans!

Just because a man wears eyeshadow, dresses like a woman and is never in the company of a woman, doesn't mean he's gay! Oh, wait yes it does! LOL
