OhBoy!This is gonna be a circus!!But its cool that all the stars are making it to Atlanta.Especially more than the usual associated with Hip-Hop.

I like Tyler Perry to an extent.I do not like his plays or many of his fans.I believe they are very ignorant and judgmental.Who else would be so vocal about who he should use in his movies.He will never venture out of the type of movies that draw him so much criticism if he listens to some of his fans.He has become big enough now that he could gain more fans with a broader focus.

I wonder where this groundswell of hate for Kim Kardashian is coming from? I read these news postings and the commentary is off the chain!

Tyler Perry -- I Do ... Still Want Kim Kardashian To Be in My Movie | TMZ.com

Tyler Perry faces fan backlash over Kardashian casting


I hope that whatever goal Tyler Perry is trying to achieve in bringing Kim onto his latest film project is worth the fans that he may lose. I guess we are now bearing witness to a test of the true strength of the TP brand.

I don't get the big deal. They aren't outraged over Tasha Smith and she has done stuff that most of these Christians would have a problem with too.

Give me a break. She will probably suck at it anyway.

The answer's simple: because there isn't enough in the theaters for blacks. "We" support whoever is selling "our" product.

You dont get where the hate is coming from? How about Kim put out a sex tape to get famous? How about people think she faked the wedding since it only lasted 72 days and she made $10 million off it? How about she is going to make even more as this plays out on her new reality show? How about she blindsided her husband with the divorce? How about she is a huge role model for a lot of young girls that watch her show, and she is telling them to be spoiled brats? Would you want your daughter to be best friends (ex now) with Paris Hilton? I dont know how much of this stuff is true or not, but those are the rumors being spread about her.

With Tasha Smith, I honestly dont know a whole lot about her- except that she is portrayed as evil in many roles (crackhead, etc) so perhaps thats why people dont mind as much. She is also a "born again" Christian so a lot of people approve of that and will oversee her "past mistakes".

But true Christians, as I'm sure many of Tyler Perry's faithful followers would call themselves, are not allowed to judge the actions of others. Some of these people simply need to quit wasting their time blindly following this man. TP could care less about what these folks think. The man is in it for the money and fame.

Kim Kardashian is a big girl, who can do what she wants, without it being anyone's business but her own.
