And the children gathered around the queen of message movies, chanting "they're all gonna laugh at you!" According to Blackmediascoop, filmmaker/mogul Tyler Perry, who just wrapped filming on his latest film The Marriage Counselor with Jurnee Smollett, Kim Kardashian and Brandy may be taking his next film in the literal sense. Sources are saying that Perry is engaged to his girlfriend model Gelila Bekela and not only are they shopping for rings, but are also looking for locations to have their nupitals. How about choosing one of the resident gay clubs in Atlanta?
People in Perry's camp say that he hopes getting married will kill the gay rumors and that he is looking to repair his image within the black community. I thought he was doing fine with the homophobic set by pandering to them with his "message" films?
I'm sorry Tyler, but like my girl Rupaul says, "If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else?" Joining the long list of high-profile stars in arranged marriages in this day and age is not the move. We all know your tea honey, and believe me it's been spilled all over Atlanta and beyond. I think your repore with the black community will only get worse if you go through it because I've talked to my aunts who watch your films and they've all speculated that you're gay. It's not because you're gay that people are tired of you. It's because you don't take risks as a writer/filmmaker and you're not completely honest about who you are as a man. If you owned your truth instead of feeling enslaved by it then maybe most would respect you but we don't. But if you even think about pandering to the gays as a last resort due to the fact that your audience that you validate so well turn against you because you pretty much confirm what we've known for years, I still won't support you because I'm sick of mainstream artists running to the gays once the shit hits the fan.
