golly, that’s amazing!! this is a really HUGE deal!!! it brings tears to my eyes to see black folk making really big moves like this! big ups to tyler perry!! i wish him much sucess.

Congrats Mr. Perry. Keep turning all the negativity that comes your way into a positive, we only have one person to answer too, and as long as we do right by him, neer worry about all the negativity coming your way.

Black people at their Best. Continued Success.

I will be seeing the Marriage Counselor tomorrow night.

CONGRATS to YOU, Mr. Perry. I hope nothing but GREAT movies, etc. come from your studio.

CONGRATS to YOU, Mr. Perry. I hope nothing but GREAT movies, etc. come from your studio.

Tyler, Please travel…go to Ghana, Brazil, Haiti, France, London, Scotland, Australia, Polynesia…and when you get a worldview, start making movies that reflect a variety of Black people across the world. I’m telling you, a worldview will change the way you see the United States, no matter what your experience has been. You have an Ethiopian girlfriend, I hope she enlightens you as well. (She is gorgeous, did you all see her myspace???!!!)

I am very happy that Mr. Perry has made history today, but please don’t let all of this potential go down the drain. Follow the ways of the Lord and in all of your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your path straight…I know Tyler can make BETTER movies than he is doing now. He is no Spike Lee…he has the POTENTIAL to be even greater if he just travels. Did I say I was big on traveling?

@ Judah

If u claim to be such an upstanding christian and all then why in ur response to trevor did u have to use bible verses with a side of profanity? I mean you could have just prayed for him and been done with it but ur desire was to belittle him, curse him, and accuse him of being a sodomite or whatever you said.

I mean im all for the bible and the lords teaching but why not do it in a way so people can see the peace the lord has in you and then reach for it themselves?

I know you will probbaly curse me out but unlike you I wont be checking back to see what someone says to my post.

Why dont yoy get offline and go read the bible so you can get a better interpretation on how to be more christlike since thats the message you trying to preach!

@81 WTH????

Thank you! I was thinking the same thing. But I did not want to entertain the BS.

good for Perry…congrats…now, how many years before he sells it to the white man….???

I love what Tasha has on

And congrats to Tyler

PREACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 45.

Trevor

@ WTH

I’m not going to curse you out. I come at people how they come at me. I’ve never claimed to be anything. I made a comment and that person addressed me. I addressed him back and left it at that. In regards to “peace”, there is no “peace” to the wicked (Isaiah 57:21). That applies to everyone. You will be “checking back”, lol. This is a blog. That’s what people do. You just might not answer. Obviously you don’t read the Bible because if you did you: 1) would not contest what I said 2) would know that “interpretation” has nothing to do with the Bible (II Peter 1:20,21). Sis, I’m into the scripture in the spirit of TRUTH. I deal with TRUTH, not emotion. This is why the black churches are filled with and dominated by sisters and homos*xuals. You have to drag a black man into these churches because they’re not teaching anything other than to worship this society (the white man), and all the doctrines in it. On top of that, many sisters try to play the pastor against their men and make their men feel inadquate about the scriptures.

His girlfriend is a model. I knew I recognized her from the fordmodels channel on youtube.

I am so not in the mood for negativity with the state america is in right now..so thanks to concreteloop for posting this wonderful posting along with the pics. Congrats Tyler. To have come from sleeping in your car not that long ago to now being the owner of your own production company/studio…you are truely blessed and prosperous. Everyone looks Great…Even Star Jones used the right foundation color on that day..oops i said i wasn’t in the mood for negativity didn’t i..

This is the stuff I like to hear…go Tyler Congrats!!!

TYLER PERRY YOU ARE THE MAN! THAT’S RIGHT!

I didnt look at all the pics but his girlfriend looks too SIMPLE for her mans BIG NIGHT!

Tasha Smith dress is GOREGEOUS

Oprah looks BAD 4 A BILLIONARE she look like she has on a KARATE SKIRT w/ that DAMN BELT!

And Boris wife looks nice w/ her HAIRCUT AND OUTFIT.

Tasha and Nicole look good. Awww, Wesley and Denise! I always thought Kirk’s wife was really pretty. My mom loves Jenifer Lewis. Maybe it’s just me, but it irks me how Oprah gushes over Sidney Poitier.

Forgot about Allen’s sexxy self!

Everyone look GREAT!!! Nicole Ari Parker is rockin’ the hell out of that hair cut..very chic!!

Well done Mr. Perry!

WOW IM SOOOO HAPPY FOR HIM! THATS GOOD ITS ABOUT TIME…

How come Whoopi Goldberg never attends many black events? She’s just as important as some of these other actors/actresses. Where was Bill Cosby?

FYI:

This season, scripted television programming will consist of about 150 shows employing 1,200 writers.Of that universe, 149 shows and 1,193 writers will produce shows covered by the Writers Guild’s Minimum Basic Agreement. The MBA guarantees minimum compensation, residuals, health coverage, and pension in addition to other benefits.The big exception? Tyler Perry’s House of Payne and the seven writers who, collectively, played a key role in producing over 100 episodes of one of television’s most successful sitcoms. [...]

Black people are always complaining about not being given the same opportunities and then are the first to take a dump on their own. Is it any wonder why it is so hard for us to be taken serious?

so nice

[...] Tyler Perry makes history. [...]

Tyler, I am so proud of you and what you have accomplished.
Congratulations, and may God continue to bless you, and all that you do.

I was there! It was great!

I want to ask this, where is his mom and dad? Why is his family not in front? I see and hear about this person was there and so on, but how come we don’t see his mom and dad near him? I’m just asking.

Wow, everyone does look nice and congrats to TP and yes his girlfriend/ date for the evening is a ford model, but yeah, yeah, yeah, no one is saying what i want to hear, did anyone notice Nicole Parker’s nose, she got her nose done, and it looks really, really, really good, i thought she looked good before but now she really got it going on.

A black owned studio,Opened up in George,Thats BIG!

Congrats TP & Good Luck!.

@39
I don’t see Denzel or Forest Whitaker opening their own studio.
______________________________
Good for TP

@ # 105..YOU ARE SO RIGHT ABOUT NICOLE..I GOOGLED HER AND ALL THE PICS SHOW HER WITH A SLIGHTLY WIDER NOSE..WOW..GOOD OBSERVATION. NO TELLING WHAT ELSE SHE’S HAD ALTERED.

Congrats to Tyler Perry. He deserves all the happiness. I am glad
that he is sharing his life with his new girlfriend (just too cute). I had tears
in my eyes, seeing all these fine folks having fun and enjoying themselves.
I bet they all had a ball. God bless us all. We all deserve happiness.

Tyler Perry and his girlfriend are a nice couple. She looks of Ethiopian descent. Tyler seems like he would make a great husband, hope he finds a great wife that will truly love and appreciate him. The ATL is becoming Black Hollywood, glad to call it home.

friggin’ awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God has truly blessed this man! I’m proud of all the accomplishments he’s made (even if you do or don’t agree w/ them) because he’s become a role model for some and a mentor for many. Plus he’s tolerant and understanding towards gay ppl (I’ve met him and had a convo about this so I know this for a fact)!!!! He was the first gay-friendly christian adult I ever met once coming out!

Oh and I forgot to mention how sexy I thought Nicole Ari Parker look. Yea… she looked real good in that black!

…and just when everybody’s havin fun, here comes Judah! Ya gotta wonder about anyone who’s THAT “homophobic.”

i am so happy for tyler but glad that somebody caught the fact that history had already been made with the reids’ millineum studios right here in virginia. by the way judah, lakeview terrace was terrible. love samuel jackson and kerry washington even, but the movie was an overly cliched stinker! pee–yoo!

[...] (more…) [...]

so i guess i was wrong, tyler perry isnt gay?!?! wow…interesting! i think its cover-up BUT congrats 2 him on his accomplishment!

Hey now!! Congrats to Tyler. Another stepping stone for our people. This should stand as inspiration to everyone. Everyone looks nice, and I haven’t seen Wesley Johnson since ‘City Guys’.

BLACK LOVE!!

wow! amazing! congrats man!

WOW!! It’s great to see black people supporting each other. Everybody looked great. And I like it that everybody stuck to the black and white theme….except for Lamman Rucker. Doesn’t he have a black suit, it doesn’t have to even be a tux.

Oh, and Derek Luke’s wife is so beautiful…she looks ravishing too. Lucky man.

I though tasha was Kerry Washinton from afar.

Boris and Nicole look so goo, especially together. Nice couple.

@Provost

You figured me out, lmao. That’s exactly why I come on here. To ruin your fun. I expected more from you than that lame-ass negro logic. “You’re against homosexuality, you must be one.”, lol. I’m against Barck Obama-mania too. Maybe I’m him. I’m against the so-called white man. Maybe I’m white. You people kill me.

Not a fan of the cross dressing but ultimately this is good for Black people. Black ownership is good.

This is HUGE! Congrats Tyler! You are doing some groundbreaking things even in this day and age!

Everyone looks nice!

Judah, there are plenty of people who believe that homosexuality is a sin. Just because they’re not bashing someone, doesn’t mean that they don’t denounce the sin. There is a way to denounce the sin without being nasty about it.The bible says we all sin and fall short of the glory of God. There is none righteous, no not one.
Followers of Christ are to be loving and should let their light shine so that people who may be living in sin and who do not believe in Jesus will ask you of the light and hope that is in you. Then, maybe you can witness to that person. I highly doubt you’re going to win many followers of Jesus the way you are going about it and this is our sole purpose as followers.It is not about us and our agendas, and how righteous we are or can be. It is about trying to help people through our gifts and to provide testimonies of how God has changed us. As the old saying goes “you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. Once we lead people to the Word, the Word will convict by itself. People are hurting out here. All people including the homosexuals and the black women you talk so much about. Please remember that the tongue is mighty tool. It can build as well as tear down.

By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

@ Judah
I am really amused that you found da time to reply back to me and all of these other people yet u didnt have time to answer my questions! Once agian i’ll reiterate: Have u ever lied before? Have u ever taken anything before that wasnt yours? Have u ever lusted for someone of the opposite sex while being married? Or are u having sex before marriage? If you have then u are a liar, a theif, an adulterer and/or fornicator. Those things fall right into the category as being gay would! So as i said earlier, if Tyler Perry is going to hell because he might be gay then you are too! Is that not what the Bible says?? its amazing how u think that homosexuality is the BIGGEST SIN when ALL SIN is EQUAL!

“I see that Oprah inflated her Steadman-bot mechanized doll for this occasion and programmed it to follow her dutifully as always.”

LMAO!! Stepford Steadman as I like to call him.

“My point is that if ur saying Tyler Perry is a bad person just becuz he might be gay then u aint NO BETTER cuz ALL SIN IS EQUAL… THERE IS NO SIN GREATER THAN THE OTHER!!!!!!!!”

I read the same post you did and nowhere does it state that Tyler is a bad person because he’s gay.

EVA………SMOKIN’ HOTTTTTTTTTTT

“Maybe it’s just me, but it irks me how Oprah gushes over Sidney Poitier.”

It isn’t just you. Afterall,Sydney is just a man(a bloody dog of a man from what I heard). He’s a fantasic actor,but I could do without the person(ality) or lack there of.

Lynn Whitfield is beautiful…she looks a lot like one of the dancers on So You Think You Can Dance Canada. Does anyone know if she ever got a nose job? Her nose always looks pinched.

“How come Whoopi Goldberg never attends many black events? She’s just as important as some of these other actors/actresses. Where was Bill Cosby?
”

Whoopi is the most decorated actress of ours time IMO. However,she’s a HOME GIRL. I heard her say on The View that she does nothing all weekend but lay in bed until it is time to come to work.

NICOLE LOOKS SO MOTHERFUCKING GOOOOORGEOUS! SHE AND BORIS MAKE THE SEXIEST COUPLE!

Go Tyler Perry, Congrats……Hi toooo alllll the HATERS

I understand that Mr. Tyler fired many of his writers. I would like to inform him that I am a writer. When I do write, many people always says “did you write this” . Ever since the age of 10 years old I have been writing from poems, music lyric to essays. I am now 17 and looking to go to college to major in journalist. Maybe I can show Mr. Tyler some of my writing.

Tyler,

Congratulations Brother. Keep doing what it is that God would have you to do, there is no stopping you.

Much Love.

I LOVE IT KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. IF YOU WORK HARD ANYTHING CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tyler I am so very proud of you, you make it look easy for young people who have dreams us as you did in the being. You never let anyone stand in the way of your self creativity standing strong for what you believe no matter what. We are living in hard times right now, but isn’t it wonderful what god can do. He can turn it around in a second. Much, much more success to you my brother; and please, always keep it REAL just like you do.

Congratulations to him, this is great news for Black Americans. So much can be accomplished through hard work.

Twins/Twins/Twins from around the world speak blessings to you…
Your event that God gave you was beautiful…continue doing big things and helping others… you are appreciated…
