Interview with TYLER PERRY
By Le Anne Lindsay I’ve now interviewed both Ava DuVernay and Tyler Perry, do you realize how close that puts me to being in Oprah’s sphere! Photo credit: Allied Philly Tyler Perry was in Philadelphia earlier this month to promote his latest movie Boo! A Madea Halloween. He walked the red carpet and introduced the film to an enthusiastic Philly audience. The next day, just a few select outlet, (yours truly included!) and the young kid who sung for the Pope, Bobby Hill, got a chance to individually meet and chat with the entertainment mogul at the Ritz Carlton Hotel. T&T: I read somewhere that when you directed your first…
