Tyler Perry
Also Known As "Madea"
What can I say about Tyler Perry? He's the best! I've only been able to see his plays on DVD, but if I EVER get the chance, I'm going to see him LIVE! Tyler Perry is the best playwright, actor, singer I know. He's hilarious as "Madea" and he really gets to the soul. He's not afraid to tackle subjects most people feel uncomfortable dealing with. And more important, he's not afraid to speak of Jesus, prayer and faith. See his website: TylerPerry.com

Tyler Perry at a Glance
Tyler Perry (born August 24, 1969) is an American actor, director, screenwriter, producer, and author. , Tyler Perry's films have grossed nearly $400 million worldwide, not including his plays.
Who is Madea?
Mabel Simmons, commonly known as "Madea" is a fictional character created and portrayed by Tyler Perry. Based on Perry's mother and aunt, Madea is an aggressive, grey-haired, bespectacled black matriarch. She will argue with anyone, frequently threatens people by pulling a gun out of her purse, and is known for her unique pronunciation and enunciation of words as reflected in her tag lines, "I oughta punch chur in da face!" and "Get that man a hat!" She is part of a large family, with many children and grandchildren. Her name is spelled variously as "Mabel" and "Mable". "Madea" or "Madear" is a typical Southern name for a grandmother; the term is a shortened form of "Mother Dear".
Although Madea is featured heavily in most of Perry's plays and films, including Diary of a Mad Black Woman, Madeas Family Reunion, Meet the Browns, Madea Goes to Jail, and most recently, I Can Do Bad All By Myself, the argument can be made that she is not the protagonist of them, but more so the comic relief to the plays and films dramatics settings.

- Hi tyler i was wondering by any chance do you have your whole collection for sale, instead of purchasing them one by one.
I am a big fan of yours and have been from the very beginning so stay blessed and keep up the good work, and please do not even give a thought to the negative that negative people post.

- I just listened to you after Obamas inaguration. Mr. Obama had two homosexual priest speak for him. He did this to appease the homosexuals screams about the godly Rick Warren. For one Mr. Obama is just as white as he is black. Second, how can you support a man who beleives in abortion (the murder of innocent babies). To me this man tries to please everyone instead of making the right hard decisions as President Bush did. Bush didn't want popularity, instead he went for making some tough decisions. Mr. Obama is going to end up being a disgrace to godly men and woman of America. This man is a joke if he thinks he is anything like Lincoln. Obama is cocky and full of himself and that is a tradgedy!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shame on you Tyler Perry, you have compromised your God for your popularity.

- Hey tyler you are an inspiration to me. I have ambitions of becoming a fashion designer, singer, and comedy actor. After I heard your story on how you came from the bottom and rose to the top, I know I can achieve my goals through prayer and belief. i would really like to make your aquaintance so you can give me advice on how to make it into the industry and be a success like you. I have some experience of playwrite, acting, comedy, because at the church I attend we have dramas, comedies, sketches, and of course singing in our choir. You should see some of the things we do. Contact us at mmcogic1823@sbcglobal.net. We also finished our first CD.

- I have been to see a few of Tyler Perry's plays. But each time the price of the tickets get higher and higher. With the cost of living going up you would think Tyler Perry would have the price of tickets where people making minimum wage or just want to take grandma out for an evening could afford your tickets. I can't listen to the radio all day to try to win tickets. Tyler think where you can from. Just trying to make it.
