Bump whatcha heard… Tyler Perry hasn’t given up on Madea, his grey haired money maker. In fact, she’s alive and well and once she gets her new wig in the mail, she’ll be back better than ever!
Critics have long prayed for the day that Madea would be a distant memory, and while Perry grew tired of Madea’s moo-moo’s back in 2010, she was revived a year later in the film “One Big Happy Family”.
When Tyler found a woman to love and began speaking of marriage & kids, hell even I thought it was lights out for the pistol packin’ granny! And after TP cast himself as leading man in his newest film, “Good Deeds,” whoodathought he’d EVER do drag again?

Well guess what? Madea ain’t dead yet! In fact… she was simply “retired,” but as long as there’s a wig out there to fit TP’s big head, Madea still has a job! Hallelu-yerrrr!
Details below:
A few days ago, Tyler… oops I mean Madea, sent out an email advising fans that she’s “come out of retirement” and will resume doing stage plays:
Hellur! This is Madea,
I was coming on this interlink email thang to let y’all know that I’m going on tour. That’s right, on the road in a bran new play called MADEA GETS A JOB!!
Times done got hard on my side of town so I went to work. They making an old woman come out of retirement. This show is hilarious. I can’t wait to get out there and make you hurt yoself laughin.
Now listen, I know times are hard right now so I told these promoters that in every city I wanted the tickets to start at $25. NOTICE I SAID START AT $25. Ok. But they go up from there. Two thangs I want you to be sure of… One is that I said START AT $25, and the other is that I wanted to be sure that everybody can come have a good time.

I love Madea more than anything i want tyler to continue perform Madea don’t mind what other people think just care about what you think<3<3<3
Well if Tyler thinks that movies with an all black cast are a thing of the past then when will we put plays with all black cast on the back burner?
I think he’s doing this because its easy money.
I FINALLY, after seeing Tyler @ Whitney’s funeral speaking with such candor and spirit, have broken down and watched MADEA…and LOVED HER (HIM), and he is retiring? OHHHH HELLL 2 tha NOOOAAWWW
I like the ole Spirit lol. The character was a bit over-played and commercialized at one point, but I think it’s good she comes off this break to make us laugh again.
The ones that hate Madea are the one’s whose games she be bussin’up. Especially Black men.After Madea’s message (and she always come KORECT),there’s always gonna be some slick azz slackers hatin’ on the truth. As long as Big Mama,Ms. Klump and Razfucious(whateva)stay fat,stupid and buckeyed,dudes jus’ LOVE EM’!!But they hate hell outta’ Madea. I say KEEP IT COMIN’ MADEA!
I have never ever ever supported Tyler Perry”s plays/movies/jet fuel. I think he is buffon and sending us back 100 years (repeated) sending us back 100 years .
The studios and production company had to see blacks wearing wigs and dressing up as woman and standing on your head, tell us a joke . Flip Wilson tried many years to get out of doing Jerdeen( sp and google it)
Good talented blacks can’t find good honest paying work without juking n shi ving . I was praying he would go away, but this coon pulls a publicity stunt and flys Whitney home with y’all hard earned money. Belive me she had a ride . It didn’t fool me , I saw the snake crawling back yall good grace. Smmfh
Love TP if he brings madea to Virginia,by God’s power i would be there live.
[...] didn’t he just bring Madea outta retirement? What more do you people want from [...]
I can’t with Madea anymore. She/he was funny the 1st 100 Madea Goes To….but it’s just tired now.
