Tyler Perry brought his Ethiopian Model, Gelil Bekele to the LA red carpet premiere for his film “Why Did I Get Married?” (best film ever).

She is gorgeous. Now everyone can put he GAY RUMORS about Tyler Perry to Rest! (I think!)

okay new girlfriend then why does he look like he stole Little Richard’s face powder…or is it just me????
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i dont see why everyone say that this man is Gay and they get it from him breaking into the industry as Madia. but if he is or not he could buy and sell us all so what differecr does it make. let him live his life and y’ll live y’lls stop hating
I absolutely love and respect Tyler Perry. I don’t care if he is gay or not. I am happy that he is not like many brothers around here with vanilla on their arms. He has a beautiful from the mother country, young black woman. It appears to me, he has his head up high and is very proud with her. With this type of woman, he will be treated with so much admiration.
Tyler has set a prime example that some brothers are still focused. You go guy!!
This message is late but anyway. This foto makes me sick. I cant for the life of me understand why Tyler would show off a half naked woman and still call her his girlfriend. I always respected him and appreciated the fact that he is a christian with morals. He beeter be careful what he is showing off in public before his box office figures goes down.
I’m disappointed!!!
just look at that one of the many BEAUTIFUL ETHIOPIAN girl…..he is one hell of a luuck GUY or GAY whatso ever!!!
How a woman looks, says a lot about her man. Dress up a bit babes and give sum respect to the man, we love him too and its nice that he got an african girl. From a South African babe!
i respect tyler perry, his movies have really touched me, and i have been hoping that i would meet him someday, but as i saw this picture i was kinda afraid. God says we shouldn’t judge, but i would just like to advise terry, ur movies portray you as someone who loves God and respects Him. so let your life show that too. i am happy about you and your girlfriend cos the Bible says two are better than one, she looks beautiful(African ladies are always beautiful), but next time sweetheart( Gelila) try to wear something better, that would make people respect you. cos i feel there’s someone sweet and special under those exposed clothes.
As i read the comments on the page, i am very disappointed in how these people are reacting to his girlfriend clothes. But with expose clothes or not i don’t think that what makes a person. But congrats on doing your thing in the public eye and can’t wait to see Mr. Perry in the new Star Trek movie!
I know Tyler Perry is Madea, but even when he’s dressed as a man all I see is Madea, i’m just waiting for him/her to pull a gun out of his pocketbook, I meant her manpurse (lol), & start poppin off.
his date is beautiful tho…

What does one’s sexual preference have to do with talent and the honest way he is being rewarded for not giving up?
Some people would complain to God about what comes first, night or day. Please leave this man alone. He has talent, he has business sense, but who knows what happens to him when he is alone in his home after reading the posts about his sexuality? I know if you are in the public eye you have to be ready for negativity, but if we just remind each other that a man has beat all odds to make a honest living, perhaps we can soon keep negative statements to ourselves. I know this hurts him, but say what you will about his plays and movies, his proof is in his mansion. Really, what benefit is it for others to guess a person’s preference, and how is the answer going to affect your life. Applaud another talented human, and strive to find something positive in your lives which will leave less time for you to snoop in the bedroom of others.
Hey i just found out that Tyler Perry played professional baseball and has a major league record that still stands today…….getting hit in the face with most balls.
Is she a christian???????????????
I am proud that he has a black woman, not Latino and or White.
Maybe we as Africans in Africa we will start taking Black Americans seriously. for we have always thought they were just a laughing stock, make couple of rands(dollars) and then want to be associated with white women. It’s okay to be comfortable in your own Skin. I a Black South African and over here Successful Black men marry Black women. Look at Nelson Mandela he is the most loved Black man in the world and the best part is he doesn’t have to act white.
And I will like to see more Black American leading by example behave like Africans, then I will be proud to have association or let alone my children to see Black Americans as role models like Mandela is to many of us.
Long Live to Tyler Perry and the rest of Black Americans who think like Africans.
Thato-South Africa
I pray that he is not gay because that is not of GOD and I hope the this woman can fufill him menatally, spiritually because in all relationships you need to be equally yokedmor it wont work.
Sharris
i love tyler perry so much and i have so much respect for him…..and i guess i could say that i’m happy for him and his new girlfriend…(i guess) but i dont think he’s gay, he just plays a woman to give people commedy and good advice, so all u haterz just give him his credit and stay out his personal life!!
but i wish i was older because i would love to be the woman on his right side, man he is too damn sexy!!! lol, mz ethiopia prolly dont even like him forreal….that’s just my opinion!!!
I just respect Tyler so much, whether he’s gay or not people need to stop medling in other people’s lives. Peoople let Tyler do what he’s good t and live his life who cares whether is gay, straight or what. Tyler I supoort you 120% in whatever that you do. You are such a brilliant person and have made our lives fun-loving with your projects. You are the Best Brother. Long Live Tyler Perry!! Long Live!!! Continue doing your work to make us laugh our lungs out.
I wish you all the best with your woman.
THEY SAY HE GAY CUZ HE IS GAY ASS HELL IF U CANT SEE THAT U A DAMN FOOL WHY EVERYTIME THEY ACCUSED OF BEING GAY THEY POP UP WITH SOME FEMALE ON THEY ARM AND THEN THE GURL NEVER SEEN AGAIN WHAT THE FUCK HE GAY ALL OF THEN JUST CAUSE YOU WITH A GURL DONT MEAN U CANT BE GAY JUST MEAN U WITH A GURL
I lyk him and his movies and plays at least they address the issues that confront us today and the fact that we need God more than ever.
About his girlfriend?well i think she’s beautiful and all that but if he’s a christian then as d bible says happy are those who do what God requires,then his girlfriend should dress fashionably but modestly.
Tyler Perry “strikes” me as gay, but how does one really know? That goes to say, he has a way about him that seems consistent with a lot of successful, but gay men. And his character Madea, coupled with the fact that he was never seen with any women until the gay rumors began, doesn’t help.
But we all seem to have these preconceived notions about what makes a masculine man, as if it’s unmasculine to be in touch with your sensitive side. To me, he appears to be a sensitive guy, which is what we need more of.
One’s voice inflections, tonations and body language can be misleading. And our community is so messed up that we teach our kids to think that if a brotha isn’t poppin’ off at the mouth about sex with women, he must be gay.
All one needs to do is look at the one celeb who, to this day, has probably fooled everyone, Easy-E., to know that these so-called ruff-necks and thugs aren’t all THEY’RE cracked up to be; many of those street corner hoods are the same DL-Brothas hangin’ downtown in the alleyways after dark.
In other words, no one can really know until Perry is caught in the act or outs himself. Until then, he’s not gay, in my mind.
I’m seriously surprised at some of the delusional people on here! He is clearly gay. If you don’t believe he is, then you don’t know any gay people. And what is wrong with being gay? Stop bashing! Now, about his movies. They are poorly written and would be better suited for TV. The dialog in his films seems to be written for junior high level moviegoers, not adults. He is making a ton of money off of black people that just don’t have anything better to go see because most movies are made about white people. So all of you focused on which gender Tyler likes to have sex with, should be more concerned with how he EXPLOITS you for a quick buck!
This will sound out of the box-but oh well, who cares (it’s just my thoughts running amok again). I see how Tyler’s plays/movies send a strong message about how males treat their women (the men in powerful positions that ‘own’ their woman and dictate to her what to do, say, wear, etc.). I would think from just viewing one photo of Tyler with his lady friend-we don’t know the situation-we don’t know if this was outing #1 or 10-does it really matter? The point is if her skimpy little, black dress is what she selected to make her feel powerful (you’d have to understand “models” as a general rule they are VERY tough on themselves when it comes to their physical image and typically get perks if they show off a designer’s new frock. They are advised on the latest fire that fuels the fashion industry in ‘their’ world) then how hypocritical would Tyler be if he told her the dress was too revealing etc. He strikes me as a methodical man (obviously-just watch his plays/movies etc. they are crafted with well thought out meanings and dialogue) so his deep and contemplating nature no doubt contributes to his patience in deciding, with good reason, to be selectively picky about who is dubbed “his girlfriend.” I see this picture and yeah, sure I see what everyone else sees initially (but hey at least it’s not the JJ cleavage shot) but then my eyes go to Tyler and I think to myself he’s an incredible person and I trust his judgement and only wish extreme happiness for him in the love department. If she’s the one that haunts his dreams at night then he, like everyone, should have love. But then I read the info. about her and I don’t consider (or see) the outfit when I read she’s a model because I know they are conditioned to always look like everyday is a red carpet day (we’ve all seen those barely there dresses) so I don’t take the way she is dressed into consideration. Besides-shouldn’t he just ‘pal’ around to events and dates with her for awhile before people have him married to her already?
I just reread the article and it IS a red carpet event for the film industry, so there you go-no worries people…Tyler’s got his head on straight…just remember he is human like the rest of us!
his girl friend is beautiful,sexy black women im happy for him i dated Ethipian before they are beautiful and honest and they are christian i don’t think he would have any problem
Tyler perry is the bomb, i fell in love with him in the movie why did i get married. all his movies are great. i actually thought he was married, only to find out that he just started datin a lady. i wish him the best anyway. hope to meet him in future someday………
1. Anyone who can’t look at Tyler Perry and see that he is gay is blind or delusional. Look at the picture, he looks more feminine and has on more makeup than she does.
2. Wait to see how long this farce lasts, it won’t be long. Having a fake girlfriend doesn’t change the fact that he is gay.
3. Some info for the uninformed, while Gilele is Christian herself, Ethiopians are not only Christian, there are thousands of Ethiopian Muslims.
I like Tyler Perry and I really do not care if he is gay or not. Just keep doing what you do best. If you are gay you can tell people or not, I will still buy your products.
Who will answer for Tyler Perry ( SINS) will we stand in front of God and tell God that Tyler Perry is gay we have enough to worry about (OUR SINS) If Tyler is gay and he know he it and he is with a women then Tyler have to answer to God and only God stop worrying about him and sweep in front of your own door. I”m very proud of him.
Who are we to point fingers at Tyler Perry or anyone else. We who sit in judgement will be judge, and by the way what is behind your door when you shut it.
stay out of tyler perry affairs i feel he is a christian and he does not have anything to prove or answer to any one only GOD can judge him ,and we as a people need to stop judging the man and others.Tyler u just go guy.
@Thato:
I know this is a bit late, but I only just read this one and I gotta adress your post. Seriously, what you wrote takes human kind backwards for decades. People have fought so hard to be able to be with the one they love, especially interracial couples have had soooo many problems. And there you go, talking about you can’t take a black man seriously if he dates a girl who is not black but white or latina?
Being comfortable in your own skin has nothing to do with the skin colour your significant other has. I guess I’m naive, but I thought people should look beyond races as we are all human.
I’m just so bothered by the fact that when a white woman calls a black woman “colored” she’s racist, but when a black woman says blacks should date other blacks it’s not considered a racist attitude. It’s so dangerous.
Have people really not learned from the past?
Finally damn. you had me scared for a minute there TYLER
I think Tp and GB are married secretly like Janet Jackson was with her ex-husband to keep the public out of his private life. If so more power to him.
I am one of your biggest fan, i thought you was gay. May god bless you and your new girlfriend. keep up the good work.
I love him!! He’s very smart, very talented, and………… VERY GAY!! Feminine side my ass. He has had a half-naked man with the body of a god in allllllll his movies and plays. I love everything he has ever written, and have an even deeper respect for the fact that he can take a………..
Is this the 2008 version of Eddie Murphies’ UMFUFU?!? Where’s her nose bone?! Better yet, where’s Eddie! My, My My My My My My, she you look good tonight!
I can not believe all of the negative comments about our black successful men whether Entertainers, Actors, Singers, ect. I mean who really cares if Tyler Perry is what people say he is. If that is so than (OK). To me the sad part is here we have a Black Man who came from nothing and has turned himself around and we as black people find nothing more important or positive to talk about other than who he is sleeping with. Is it really that serious to put the man down and say what you feel because of what you think you know or what people say and put in your heads or you’ve read it somewhere. People still buy his DVD and go to see his movies. Now on his girlfriend, what if she was White? I could only imagine what would be said about that. We should be glad the she is black. On another subject I was reading about Usher and Tameka. Nothing but straight negative comments about Tameka Foster also. People say she’s to old for Usher and has to many kids like she’s not good enough for Usher. He chose her not you. The ones who write all the stupid stuff need to take a step back and look in the mirror and try to figure out why are they so unhappy with themselves before passing judgement on others who are doing something. I would like to say Tyler Perry-Don’t let all the foolishness and stupidity affect you in any way-do what you do best because at the end of the day you are human and have feelings just like the rest of us. In the end we all have the same one person to answer to and that’s the man upstrairs who will judge us all. God Bless You All! Usher and Tameka keep your heads up!
Tyler it’s ok to be gay. I am and I am proud. Be happy in being who you really are… GAY AS HELL!!!
I am a fan and do not think that Tyler is Gay!
However, What I do think is that WE HAVE LOSE HIM TO HOLLYWOOD………….
HE MAY NOT BE IN HOLLYWOOD , BUT HOLLYWOOD IS IN HIM………..
I picked up the February 2009 Copy of Essence Magazine and my family and I have read and discussed his article.
He looks great on the cover, but you have to read the article inside.
Having his 18/19 year old employees/interns call him Mr. Perry seems appropriate since he is their Boss. I have no problem with that.
I do however, Question his choice in Woman.
We have come to know him as a Man Of GOD (Christian) so why would he except the charms of a child.
Gelila looks like the typical 20 something on the “Arm of a Rich Man” in their photos together. I question any relationship where she could be his daughter or niece.
Advice: Aim Higher and find someone your own age (give or take 5 years at the most).
I think that Tyler is lose and someone close to him should speak out.
Let’s see …..Gelila = Ethiopia (flies, famine, and brown water) Discovered In New york? Was She Lose?
Tyler = Multi Millionaire, Movies, Fame and Fortune)
Now are we really suppose to believe that she loves him or does she love the ( Bennefit Package
, That Comes Along with him by your side).
If he were still in his Geo Metro with nothing but a Dream, would she be by his side ??????????
MY Advice : He needs to wait until GOD sends him the right woman and stop Falling For these fake a** models.
Their whole Job is to Sell – You – Something!!!
Whether it be Pantene, Clothes, etc.
What has She Sold to Him and HOW MUCH did it cost????????
I realize that everybody gets lonely sometimes, but never settle for less than YOU Deserve !!!!!!!!!!
I hope he where’s a condom everytime!!!
Can anybody say Million $$$$$ Baby. Gelila is trying to get Paid like most Models (turn housewife, turn ex-wife , turn Pain in his A**, because she will walk away with lots of Child Support and Allomony ….even with a
Pre-Nup.
Maybe in 3-5 years we will see her on Real Atlanta Housewives or Essence …… spilling the beans on our Beloved Brother.
We tried to tell him but you all know that he dated Tyra Banks.
So, If he did not know that Tyra ……..is as Nutty as a Nutty Butty Cookie…… Feeling on Other Womans Breast and such.
****The last episode I saw she was Teaching Us how to Pee in the Toilet ( yeah I said that )
Check Out You Tube!!!!!!
I could not believe the mess I saw. I think that her Producers are smoking crack…….
She has issues only GOD can solve.
The cheese fell off her cracker a long time ago , but Tyler still Tap That A**.
Gay — no he isn’t . Confused —-Very Much Soooooo.
Pray harder for him.
He was quoted as saying ” I talk to Janet (Jackson ) for advice”, in his One On One with Kathy Hughes.
Another 2 x divorcee and confused woman.
When I see her in a church on the regular, then I will trust her advice. Until then, Negro Please!
He better talk to Bishop P.S. Morton, T.D. Jakes or somebody and then take his Own Advice. Before it’s too late to turn back………..
I want all those to stop hating. He is not gay at all. I wish all the rumors would stop. I like his new girlfriend and if he states that this woman is his girlfriend then she is. Just because he hasn’t been seen with this woman until the rumors started coming out doesnt mean he is gay. I watch his plays/movies and i love his character Madea and his works consists of issues that are affecting our world and community today. To those that say all his characters are portrayed by black people that need to look at the characters closely. In his play the marriage counselor which i love by the way. the character becky is a white woman but i guess yall are blind to the fact that all yall see are black people. Lets take a look at Martin who dresses up as “Mrs. Payne” or Dave Chappelle who dresses up as a woman at times or Cedric the entertainer who dresses up as Mrs. Robinson. But just because Tyler Perry is in HOLLYWOOD you all want to down him. Get off his back and stay off the internet with your comments. Obviously to all that has these comments about him and that are downing him have nothing better to do in their own pathetic lives but down other people. The proof of his talent lies in his mansion so get off tyler and get on someone else
Long Live Tyler Perry I love you
OH PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!! Tyler Perry is soooo afraid that everyone will run away (from the theaters) screaming if he were to come out of the closet. Sorry, but being seen in public with a woman doesn’t make Tyler Perry gay. It disappoints me that he feels he has to hide his sexuality in order to have acceptance. So what if he is gay. He could serve as an example to you gay men out there that you can be tall, Black, masculine, talented, and … (OMG) GAY!!! I would hope people would not be such bigots that they would stop going to his plays or stop seeing his movies just because he is gay. If they did (or do), then I guess his work(s) is(are) not for them. Come out Tyler.
C’mon everybody, don’t believe the hype!!! TP is G-A-Y!!! Sorry to disappoint some of you, but… he’s GAY!!!! Stevie Wonder can probably tell that TP is gay… and Stevie is blind!!!
A dishonest man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends
grow up look @ your life before you judge someone else
A dishonest man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends
look @ your life before judging others
GAY GAY GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats all i’m going to say!
The days we live in now you don’t know who’s male or female! People will make you want they want you to be, but my opinion concerning Tyler Perry being gay, I believe in my heart he is all MAN and that he has the ability to do whatever a woman can do! He grew up in a household with nothing but womens, watching his grandmother, mother, aunts and sisters do everything for the family. To many there’s nothing funny about a man who knows how to take care of himself and who can intimate the women who he grew up around. Tyler Perry have came along way and to me his one of many examples of what MY GOD can do! God can take a no thing and make a SOMETHING, and when i look at him thats exactly what i see! In one of his movie he stated to a very young girl that “it’s not what they call you, but it’s what you answer too”. Mr. Perry movie have so many meaning to people of this generation letting us know that don’t look at where you at today just look up too the one who’s hold the world in his hands and who has the POWER to change whoever he want to. My Prayers and Blessings are to this man who knows how to make a person be more grateful bout life in it’s self! Go all the way Tyler Perry and continue to LOVE ALL YOUR HATERS OF THIS LIFE!
First of all, this woman is not his girlfriend — she is a friggin beard on contract. SHe has a real boyfriend that has to go in hiding as she pimps herself out.
What is sad is Tyler Perry is setting himself up to be outted in the most horrible way. He should just go the Anderson Cooper route — don’t say anything about your private relationships, so when it comes out he won’t be branded as a liar.
I respect Tyler and Ms. Bekele. It is so good to see postive black people. I am so proud of Ms. Bekele. I had the opportunity to attend middle and high school with her. She has always been the hardworking, beautiful, talented and caring person. Tyler treat my girl right. She deserves the best.
Does it matter as you understand. Tyler choice why, all
the hang up’s from the Sisters. Yeah every Black Man is
not out for your sexual dominance. Yes say that I’m generalizing, let people enjoy. There lives such some many
artist whom entertained you. There private life is there own
not for you. Or the intrusive envious “Gay ” media. Your
the protagnist most fans. Could frankly, care I know you
start so many rumors! Especially the Toni Braxton which
started by lesbians whom. Hated her and furthermore
so many innocent people. If or not why is it concern start
writing more appropriate. Interest sexuality is no of your
business, unhappy find Mister Jock. Lovnely, Black bottoms
you seek to turn everyman out. For his bottom go find Mr.
Stud or Ms. Thang sorry trash!
…I notice when White artist yes. Usuage of color themes
which: America always. Compare issues why if Black
citizen whom. Gay why the sudden confusion this the
traditionalism in society. For the readers did no in Europe
and Australia. You can be openly Gay yes I live in Denmark
and openly Gay! And Afro French and enjoy handsome
African and European men. They turn me on! For those
whom are conservative stop the harassment of Tyler. Yet
not my type he is success Black American I notice. Blacks
in America never allow there people to be independent? But
if was a Gangsta Thug with out weblock. Children this
is appropriate see were going into allegiations. Nothing more please do all us favor. Be concern about your sex
life and leave others alone. Yes allot of Black men enjoy
gay sex leave me alone.
Freedom is within the mind: I do not speak. For Black people you never get upset. When steretypes such as
rappers on drugs vulgar discourse. So to say this all Black
stop including me with the standard. Majority of (what)
tell me Tyler is or not. Why are so many people concern
do what sleep with him? Being a writer I notice the envy
and disdainment from. Gay community in the arts you
have attitude your the Hot Jock. Because I indentify does’t
mean that I’m interested. Believe me this apparent problem
you go on mockery of insults. For those you have the hots
for! I know yeah for those caugh out in this slander! Such
as Marcus Patrick is he Gay also Kay West. If they are does
matter just jealious as the early comment. Resentful Olde
“Queens” Stand up and take a Bow. Ms. Unwanted where
tired of you making fun of everybody. Tyler is a success
artist and very popular in Brazil along Germany. So Black
folks whom still call me a Faggot. This your choice not mind
nor do frankly care. Traditional elements shall always be
a part of American mind set. If your Black and Gay forget
the labels understand your environment. Deal with it you
have to deny your privacy…what is Coming Out! Are you
referring to the song of yesteryears. For most which Black
we have to remain impartial. Many factors culture lack of
support no to Black Woman. For the closet not to misunderstand? Okay simply saying if you ask I be incline to
informed you all Black do not anticipate. Relationships with
woman if you see me in Spain. I’m holding hands with a
man or touching is buttlocks. No this not graphic just ” truth”
forget AIDS aliments are life. Distorted myth about Gays
need to cease once before. If Tyler is gay is your business
apparently. Someone is concern it makes Blacks look bad!
Stop the bias “Shit” your conforming people let live. Or
are you jealious of Gays if so this your problem not mind.
Tyler continue on living your life and entertaing. The fans
ignore the uncouth and inept. Yeah your reading with
resentment “Typical’ Fag but happy and out the closet.
Hey I don’t know if he is or isn’t but she is beautiful as many ethiopian women are. Just wished she’d covered up a little bit. You can be sexy and not showing all the assy!!!!!
Ethiopian women are usually beautiful, I can’t apologize for that. I will say that it’s his choice.
OK Breathe
Tyler Perry is gay. If you can’t see that then you are blind.
Secondly he is gay who care love is love and in a world so full of hate who are we to judge.
CIVIL RIGHTS CIVIL RIGHTS CIVIL RIGHTS CIVIL RIGHTS
HOW SOON WE HAS BLACK AMERICAN’S HAVE FORGOTTEN MLK WOULD BE SICK!!!
LEAVE THE JUDGMENT TO GOD
AW, IS EVERYONE FORGETTING IN THE 70′S, ‘ELTON JOHN’ ALSO PARADED A FEMALE AROUND, CALLED HER HIS GIRLFRIEND, LATER MARRIED, THEN DIVORCED HER???…AND ELTON IS AS GAY A JAY BIRD. NO WONDER TYLER PERRY’S INITIALS ARE ‘TP’ BECAUSE HE ALWAYS NEEDS TP (TOILET PAPER) TO WIPE HIS BOOTY AFTER IT’S TOUR-UP BY ANOTHER MAN’S DONG.
It is sad that you people are trying to judge him and say he is going to loose numbers in the box office because his date wore something wexy?!! What is wrong with ya’ll? Just because he is a god fearing man does not mean that he has to make his date/woman dress like Madea! Okay yes a lil bit of her breast in exposed but it’s not like it’s hangin all the way out and he’s grabbing it!!! Get a grip people. Him and Madea are going to make money regardless of what his date wears. Ya’ll need to grow up and find out what being a true christian is really about. He most definitely isn’t going to hell for being in public with this beautiful black woman who decided to look sexy for her man! The ones hating trying to put god in this are probably jealous of him and her! BIG UPS to Tyler Perry and his Ethiopian queen.
And by the damn way, the dress ain’t that revealing!! Just a lil peep out the side. I’ve seen missionaries who show more frontal cleavage than that. So get off this BS!!
it’s me you need to just shut up.. anonymous you are hilarious
Ok people are such idiots everyone always up in someone else’s business here the deal the man is not gay, he was really in love with a girl from high school but she didn’t give him the time of day when he didn’t have much more then lint in his pocket, once he became big she started seeing him in a different light so they began to date, he brought her a car nothing fancy but he did buy her a car he found out just who she really was the car he brought her was a lumina I believe and she was looking for something more so hmmm benzy like if you know what I mean. but anywho they broke and Tyler said he was not going to date anyone else until he found the woman that GOD had planned for him. there are so many other men who have played women characters and you don’t hear anyone beating them up. now unless you was stand right there while he was being fucked then you can’t say he is gay or not gay. however he talks about his life with the woman I mention in the trailer of one of his plays not sure which one but if you have the whole collections of his plays just visit the backstage of the play and you will see for yourself. also this is 2009 people can dress the way they want to dress no one has to wear dresses down to their ankles to love GOD or for GOD to love them let this man and his woman live their lives and please live your life it so damn pathetic how people focus so much on these entertainers lives instead of their own lives. if people ain’t bashing Chris Brown for him and Rhianna splat. they talking about Tyler or some other celebrity that has fallen short of perfect in this retarded ass world grow the fuck up and get a damn life. please the man plays Madea which is inspired by both his mother and aunt he just put together the way they used to act when he was growing up and now he making a profit off of it.
and as far as Makeup goes hello a lot of celebs have to wear it to cover up unwanted bumps and things of that nature their wardrobes, hairstylist and makeup people is the one who knows what looks good on them. all I can say is Tyler do your damn thing and tell these damn ass people to kiss your ass gay or not.
He did say he will wait on God to find him a wife.The problem is, I would have thought he would have picked an American, down to earth, regular chic. Some one who can appreciate what he has been thru. If Tyler was still poor, this model chic would not give him the time of day. The only posistive thing is she is not white, or latina or any other race. She doesnt look his type. But if he feels like they are equally yoked and he his happy, then so be it. She better not mess over him cause he is fine and their is alot of beautiful hard working christian black women that would love to cater to him……Peace n Love .God bless him
I like Tyler Perry, but it does not matter how many women he says are his girlfriend he is GAY. When he is not playing Madea he cannot get out of character. I’ve seen him on several talk shows even when he plays a different character in the Madea movies he cannot get away from doing his mouth like Madea. Come out the closet Tyler you are a grown ass man. Which ever side of the team you choose to play for is your business. But you are not fooling anybody but yourself and Oprah. lol
I AM NOT GOD AND I DONT KNOW IF TYLER PERRY IS GAY OR NOT………BUT ONE THING THAT I CAN SAY IS THAT I AM TRULY BLESSED BY HIS MOVIES AND PLAYS…..IF HE IS GAY I WOULD REALLY BE DISAPPOINTED……I AM KINDA DISAPPOINTED SEEING THE PHOT OF HIS “GIRLFRIEND”…..I MEAN I WOULD PICTURE HIM WITH A MORE CONSERVATIVE TYPE OF WOMAN (I MEAN WHO DRESSES MODESTLY)………..BUT HEY!…….IM NOT THE ONE TO JUDGE….LET GOD BE THEIR JUDGE….
TYLER PLEASE PRACTICE WHAT U PREACH AND PORTRAY IN YOUR MOVIES. THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE LOOKING UP TO YOU……..GOD BLESS YOU (AND I REALLY HOPE U ARE NOT GAY………..P.L.E.A.S.E
Wow! She is very pretty could be just a date, or a gf! Any hoo Im amazed at how people are questioning his christianity all because of the women he has on his arm, and rumors we hear. And I dont think shes dressed half naked at all, she is showing skin. LOL, but we never question our fav rapper or singer when they win an award and the first thing they do is “Thank God” and profess God as their Lord and savior. Who are we to judge someones christianity? Everyone claims to be a Christian from Catholics to baptist which are very different religions. I think Tyler Perry is a very positive person who is shedding a positive light on the African American comminunity. Now if he would have had a fully clothed women hair pulled back no makeup we’d really swear he was gay ,lol so when he comes with a beautiful women on his arm showing skin, omg hes trying to hard. Itsa lose , lose! So many of you stated you cant judge him only God can, but you just contradicted yourselves and did. LOL i think the pic was blown way our of porportion,like i said we dont even know if its his gf, maybe a date, maybe just a freind. With that said, “Do you Tyler Perry ,answer to know one but God, and keep making your millions!!!
Look Tyler you have no vanilla on your arms. Fine if you did, if it is what you want , whether she is young old , big or fat. A human being is a a human being. Only thing is, in this world we have to make choices that we can live with .It does not matter what the public think. The world is moving fast with the people in it. faster than the earth”s axle. People gonna talk about you , whether good or bad.I am from Ruston La.Hello homie, They say where I come from is that when people talked about you , you are all ways thought about. Being jealous and you name it.Then they wanna claim it. good luck homie O.G.
i am a gay 21yr old i like rihannas butt
that nigger is a homo!He licks nigger boys buttholes!!
I LOVE T PERRY HE IS BAD AS HELL LET HIM BE HAPPY
if he was gay i would still love him!!
i always knew that tyler wasnt gay. i love tylers plays and movies they all be so good and entertaining.and just because he plays a womans role that doesnt mean that he is gay and so who ever said or started the rumor that he was gay im gone need you to to talk what you know because as you can see he has a beautiful wife.
Enough about the African comments!!! I have been married to a black man for 9 years – guess what I love the man, not the color!! Why is it that you can have a “Miss Black America Pageant, “NAACP”, yet if a white women has a “Miss White America Pageant” it’s called racism, prejudge, etc. ALL ETHNIC groups have been persecuted..as a white Jew my ancestors were beaten and killed under the Nazi’s, a black man’s ancestors were enslaved and beaten, and killed. It goes on & on……can’t we let our past go and build a future we can ALL be proud of-
Tyler Perry is a man (not God) and I appreciate and enjoy his gift, my husband and I consider him a brilliant screen writer & actor !
Personally,i think all your comments are helerious!
People,we will never know if tyler is gay or not.
M south Arican-so i dont hev a problm with da gal.Im born again,en didnt hev a prblm wit tyler.
But now it makes it my prblm if he claims 2b christian en doesnt live it fully.Of late,m questioning everythng bout the way he does things anyway.So i wont b suprised if he does sumthng worse.
Let his concious deal with him,en see if he is what he claims.
Or if he personaly lives by da advise he is always dishing out 2 people.
I think the man know if he is gay or not. America kills me when you dont show off your girlfriend or boyfriend you are considered gay!
I think the man know if he is gay or not. America kills me when you dont show off your girlfriend or boyfriend you are considered gay!
Tyler needs prayers to help lift him up. People need to stop worrying about if he’s gay or not, let God be the judge.People keep talking about him being gay that’s not the only thing people do that’s wrong or sinful. Let’s be real!
i cannot belive that youre guys stilll talking about BLACK-WHITE people,arent we all the same?
By the way… just because he has a girlfriend doesn’t completely mean he’s not gay….there have been many men who have girlfriends and even get married and don’t come out until later in life….Doesn’t anyone remember terry McMilan’s husband, he’s gay. I love tyler Perry, but there is evidence of him being a gay man, or at least somewhat atracted to men
EVERYONE MUST READ THIS IN ORDER TO STOP THE DIVISION!
I absolutely needed to comment on THATO writer`s post that I have conveniently cut and pasted below.
First, I am glad to know Tyler Perry is not gay. I never thought he was gay. He appears to simply be a person who is focused on the task at hand and understands that relationships don`t have to be broadcasted in order to be “real”. Maybe he is just a private person…
Secondly, I am sorely disappointed in most of the comments by the Africans posting on this string. I am a young African American woman who has lived and worked in parts of Africa and can attest to most African Americans having a great appreciation and admiration for the continent and our heritage. This post below reflects the great divide within the Black diaspora and how many do not feel welcome to even trace roots back to the continent for fear of rejection from the African`s who were not taken away.
Fortunately, the color of your skin is not the most important factor in making a relationship actually work. Adhering to a standard, being guided by principles, and chemistry are much higher on the list for a successful relationship. Nelson Mandela married a black woman, but how many of Africa`s leaders have not married black and also gone for the white women…..many! Maybe the numbers are equal to what is seen in the U.S. Naming 1 person is very unfair and offensive, quite frankly. You should check your numbers if that really concerns you. Every culture has people that choose to marry outside of their race…..it is ok…get over it!
If you REALLY want to look at Tyler and his girlfriend, they are also very different and could possibly experience the same challenges if he had chosen a woman of another color….Color is not the issue, it is CULTURE. They are both from 2 different cultures……..there will be a clash if there hasn`t been already….completely natural occurance when dating someone outside of your culture………Ethiopia is not the same as America or Black America……………another topic..hahaha
I dont want to use this string as a source to “lift the lid off the garbage and show someone else`s dirt”. I am just saying, let us stop hating each other and always looking to see how much better one diaspora group is from another. Soooo Africans are no better than any other diaspora group, visa versa! We all have prominent leaders within our communities that we love and admire. Nelson Mandela is a shining star to all in the world as well as Martin Luther King, Jr. and countless others that we can boast about. The point is, we should ALL look at them as leaders for us ALL, not just for “my group to the other less important group”. (FYI: I do NOT support inter-ethnic conflict or discrimination based on tribe. Doesnt promote social, economic, or cultural development. Thus, Dafur and Rwanda and countless other conflicts on the continent………THATO seems to be wanting to create this negativity on this string………no tolerance of that in the USA!)
Lastly, THATO, there are wonderful things to learn in every ethnic community. There are wonderful things about the African American community and its history in America, you should get some books or even talk to some AA elders in your US community. Elders are important in AA community as well is in the communities in Africa. I have learned great and wonderful things about all the different ethnic groups in the countries I have lived in within Africa. I didn`t settle for what my U.S. media showed me about Africans nor did I visit the continent for 2 weeks and “conclude” from what my eyes saw. (you know what I am talking about)…..
Thank you all for listening.

THATO`S UNTHOUGHTFUL POST:
I am proud that he has a black woman, not Latino and or White.
Maybe we as Africans in Africa we will start taking Black Americans seriously. for we have always thought they were just a laughing stock, make couple of rands(dollars) and then want to be associated with white women. It’s okay to be comfortable in your own Skin. I a Black South African and over here Successful Black men marry Black women. Look at Nelson Mandela he is the most loved Black man in the world and the best part is he doesn’t have to act white.
And I will like to see more Black American leading by example behave like Africans, then I will be proud to have association or let alone my children to see Black Americans as role models like Mandela is to many of us.
Long Live to Tyler Perry and the rest of Black Americans who think like Africans.
Thato-South Africa
People are lames. I never thought Tyler Perry was gay. People be hating for no reason
Man look i love and respect tyler. I wouldn’t give a damn if he liked drag queens he still would get my respect no matter what. I think its great that he has someone and its a shame that someone like tyler has to limit their selves in order to please the public and the slime media its pretty ridiculous!! I think she is a pretty woman and she needs to know the position she is in period. I LOve you Tyler and i will continue supporting you!!!I”M HOLLA
Ms Dean or whatever you call yourself, you’ve got some nerve coming in here to tell us enough about anything. While I congratulate you on your marriage and on your ability to love past color, there are some home truths that need to be brought to you straight up:
Your conjugal bliss with what you peeps term as the ‘other’ is no ticket for u to waltz in our midst and chat ish about what we can or can’t do. But then again, I’m not surprised it’s the kind of stupid arrogance a number of your kind display on a regular basis.
Secondly, coming from a society as insular as yours (which may or may not have its reasons – not that anyone could care any less), it’s a bit rich for you to complain about Afro – American themed events. Racism my damned foot. Speaking of the suffering of your ancestors, there’s one thing you should know, your people have never forgotten, unless I’m guessing you’ve never heard of the JDL and their motto ‘Never Again’- tell them to forget before you tell us to.
But then again, I don’t know why I bother or am even surprised. After all, it was your peeps in Israel who cast aspersions on Ethiopian Jews even going so far as to suggest they take DNA tests to verify their identity.
The same peeps who also supported the apartheid government in oppressing and butchering Africans on their own home soil, so hey, I don’t know why I’m surprised.
A word of advice, though, clear out the clump of trees in your eye, before attempting to tell others about the speck in theirs.
man he is just doing ths for a publicity stunt, i love tyler perry and i don’t care if he’s gay or straight. he’s a very talented man whom i respect for being a black self made millionaire, i just think he needs to not be scared to come out of the closet and be who he wants to be private or public.
Gay or not. I still love his work. That’s all that matters.
Mogi from South Africa.
He ain’t putting an end to gay rumors. Now he’s saying, “I’m so deep in the closet I’m seeing spider webs. Oh! And like my new cover up?”
I find it interesting the number of Christians who love and respect Tyler Perry’s works that directly contradict the Word of God. ALL of his movies have profanity in them. It’s a shame that people, especially Christians, think it is necessary to produce movies with garbage in order for those movies to be good. The writers and producers of Facing the Giants, Flywheel and Fire Proof have proven that it doesn’t take garbage to sale a movie and it can still be realistic.
There is something seriously wrong when Christians condone sin. Does anyone read AND understand God’s Word?
Furthermore, there are some incredibly prejudice people on this page. Who cares what the color of the skin is? People are people.
Furthermore, why do we waste time entertaining rumors about his sexuality. Just pray for the man. Even if he is straight, he definitely needs prayer to clean up his movies and represent God properly.
to all you haters out there that think tyler perry is gay, yall r lamns. tyler perry plays a woman so what. and if he is gay whats the big deal. whats wrong with gay people nothing. and you know what yall just mad cuz hes famous for what he does and your not. so stop bein stupid and let him live his life. i stand by tyler perry 100% so haha

Amen Reny2000. If he was gay, it ain’t that big a deal to me; and any man that is not married early or a playa get labeled gay. Then folks wonder why good men are hard to find! I say this being a woman and the same thing happen to women!If they don’t have a boyfriend or are not sexually active then they are a lesbian!Go figure!Then folks complain about women being too easy!I also would like to add that judging the girl by her appearance says something about the critics as well! To paraphrase the Bible, the same way you judge others is same way you will be judge! Some of us judging this girl by appearance have probably done fast things in their life-probably more than her-Christian or not. Also, she is wearing stuff that Hollywood stars and supermodels tend to wear at different functions-not necessarily so much to show off.
I am very disappointed with Thato’s comment. I am young black South African lady. First and foremost whether Tyler is gay or not, is none of our business. Secondly, love knows no boundaries. Whether the woman was white, latina or any race wouldnt reallyt make anuy difference. I’ve been married for 5years to a wonderful white man and he treats me with love and respect and we love each other very much. so you haters must just stp. The guy is good at what he does, period!!!!
To: The-Tso I don’t know what is your problem with Thato’s comment. I am disappointed in yours. Sounds like you just wrote in to publicize who you are sleeping with. The man simply stated that he appreciates seeing a successful black man with a successful black woman. We are entitled to love who we want, and I believe you and your family should be able to love, live, and let live, just like any other family. That is your choice, but his comment does have a point. I want you to ask your white husband what white people talk about when there are no blacks in the room and tell me if he answers. If he answers honestly, it will sound a lot more offensive than anything you could ever read here. AS FOR TYLER PERRY GOES: I LOVE YOU; I LOVE YOU; I LOVE YOU! I don’t have a problem with gays; I have a problem with gays who are in the closet and have clueless girlfriendS. “Low-down” men (pun intended) deceiving the female race with there lies is a problem, not the gays. Low-down men spreading disease to their wives and girlfriends who believe that their man likes women, is a problem. If that is his girl, I wish them the best. I think she is GREAT! Outfit and ALL. If he is fronting for ratings, I understand; we are surrounded by ignorance. The only problem I could ever have with him is: if he were gay and sleeping with a woman who did not know that he liked men too. That is on the list of things that are as low-down as it gets. Much love to all;)
Oh I was just about to post a comment, but the drama I see in here I’ll wait for the smoke to clear. I’m out Peummmmmm!
Tyler Perry is obviously a fairy.
tyler is still gucci gay or not
i dnt knw why e media se tyler perry is gay bt i am so hapy 4 him and his gal lol.
TYLER PERRY IS GAY, BUT IM HAPPY FOR HIM. HE SHOULD GIVE ME HIS MONEY !!!
Well this puts everything to rest. Sure people like Elton John were married and had girlfriends, but someone as effeminate as Tyler Perry must be straight.
What more do people want, there are pictures of him with a woman.
Sure if he were gay he would make less than 1/2 as much money after the church crowd abandons him. But who cares about making money?
Everyone knows that Black people hate Gay people. If Tyler were gay it might be a bad idea to come out. Untill the black community leans not to be bias Tyler has a lot to loose.
To the Devil disguised as Jesus Christ^^^ if Black ppl hated gays/Tyler, then why did he gross $26million in 23months compared to Spike Lee’s 26yrs! Lets rethink this & please consult your Bible when you loose your way~
Because Tyler is with a woman does not mean he isn’t gaye. What I’m most concerned with is the state of black men these days. Bi-Trans-Metro, etc…this is of the world and not of GOD. Are there any true godly men out there, will true woman of any color find their body to be the rib? The Madea movies are all the same, i liked the plays better. To be Hollywood you have to live in Hollyworld which means you compromise GOD’s gift to be accepted and maintain a certain standard and gain wealth. Just wish everyone could b real
It doesnt matter whether he is gay or not, everybody knows that even if he were to say that he is, yall wouldnt stay out of the movie theater to see his movies……yall continue to live yall lives and let him live his……hope to see yu in da movie theater cuz im goin out 4 his next movie/play!!!!!!!!!!
wendy i love u gurl…lol…dats all i gat ta say bout dis 1 lololololololol….how u doin
hey tyler,we are proud of you whateva the case.may you keep receiving more blessing coz your blessing are blessing as too.frm your BIGGEST fan in zambia.
Who cares if he’s Gay??
who’s really really care. He does some GREAT work. He IS productive? Why tear him down. Sweet Geeeezz.
He makes laugh. He’s an entertanier. That’s all I want from this guy!
Show him some love and support him and his work. Then he may relax and tell you/us about his life. Just quit beating him up first
Thanks folks….
Joy Rising!
My Heavens!!! Tyler is not the first man who made money by dressing up like a women. He has made millions hand over fist(it works for him). IF I could make the money he has made dressing up like a man, guess what,pass me my mustache. Furthermore, why is it when a black guy is articulate, well spoken and not thuggish, do we label them gay. C’mon black people let that mess go.
Love Tyler…..I do think he’s gay. He’s AWFULLY careful to select the hottest damn black men in the world in all of his movies……that to me screams it. lol.
Tyler Perry is a huge fudge packer. I saw him drunk one night at Area in West Hollywood and he was trying to get the bus boy to go to the bathroom with him to suck his dick. He told him he has a tooth that comes out and it feels amazing while he is sucking. oooh feels nice!
Having a woman by his side DOESN’T MEAN ANYTHING!! You know how many men use that as a cover up??? PLENTY!! You have to remember he’s a HUGE icon so it would make sense to ease the public’s mind by having a lady by his side to protect his image. Any man who dresses up in drag and has the characteristics & “Mannerisms” of a woman DEFINITELY has BIG question mark on his forehead!!!!!
@Jonasapphine,
Exactly my thoughts…By far the best comment on the board.
my baby is not gay y’all need to stop saying that
ANNONYMOUS and all the other haters, leave Tyler Perry alone, would u have rather him to have a white chick, he is GREAT at his craft, so STRAIGHT or GAY leave him alone. Here is another successful BLACK brother trying to do right, so if all else fails, LET’S SAY HE IS GAY
MT, just because he protraits a woman, does not mean he is gay, did you know that
hello mr.tyler are u goin 2 marry her in the future
I have read everyone”s comment on tyler perry that he is gay this is so funny LOL lets talk about eddie murphy or martin lawerance or the waynes brother lets also talk about Jamie fox they dress up like women are they gay no so why are talking about tyler perry !!!!!!!!!!!!!! not one person said anything bad about the men before tyler perry came out an did his thing the klumps eddie murphy, martin lawerance Big mama, Jamie fox shana na so u see they are not gay they are actors so stop talking about him an find something else to talk about
Wake up people..Its just a coverup……Have you ever heard of ILLUMINATI? They sleep with one another..Hide in pictures in public thier sexuality…..Its just one of the rules…Modern day slavery for singers and actors to stay rich…Its all about the money….So many celebrities have to do different people to get a part in movies and lots of action in the music music industry. Go here to read all who is a illuminat including actors, musicians…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJi2HaJf1VI
He is definately bisexual…Don’t let the photo fool ya….He is one of those in the closet gay men. The chic in this pic is possbly bisexual….Damn its so many celebs in the closet as bisexual and gay. We have to open our eyes to the truth that is covered so well…..Watch Illuminati videos to learn the truth who killed Michael Jackson. Its all a coverup!
Also Tyler looks like he is robbing the cradle. She looks too young…Can pass for his daughter….Sorry the coverup is not working. He need to come clean….
Please! He found the best looking model. She’s “too perfect.” Clear indication to me that he’s trying way too hard to prove he’s not gay. I remember when Whitney Houston denied for years that she and Bobby were on drugs. When fans didn’t buy it, she had no choice but to come clean. Same thing will happen with Tyler Perry. Wait and see. I like the guy; but please, quit lying to your fans and yourself, man!
