Everytime I thnk of Tyler’s story, I think of how GOD and GOD ONLY WILL BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY when others tried to curse you. MIRACLES & BLESSINGS to MR. PERRY FOREVER! GOD IS SOOOO GOOD!
God bless Tyler. He really suffered as a child.
I find it funny that celebreties always feel compelled to share their horror stories when they have a project that is about to be released. Just Saying!!!
My heart really went out to Tyler Perry. You never know how hard a person really have. It’s just like the saying goes, "you never know what goes on behind closed doors".
People criticize him for being quiet & speaking out. When all those years they were accusing him of being gay, and when explain why he is the way he is, they say he shouldn’t talk about it. It just show you can’t ever please everyone. You have to do what’s best for yourself.
You see how he gave that ——->:} side eye to Oprah when a man at his church used the Bible to molest him? We know he was referring to Eddie Long. Which makes sense, because a victim of sexual abuse know all the signs of a pedophile.
Peace!
