Tyler Perry Says Spike Lee Can Go to Hell


Yesterday was the Hollywood premier of Tyler Perry's latest film 'Madea's Big Happy Family'. During a press conference to promote the movie someone asked Tyler about Spike Lee's criticisms of his films and Tyler blew his top...

"I'm so sick of hearing about damn Spike Lee," Perry said during a press conference Tuesday in Beverly Hills, Calif. "Spike can go straight to hell! You can print that. I am sick of him talking about me, I am sick of him saying, ‘this is a coon, this is a buffoon.' I am sick of him talking about black people going to see movies. This is what he said: ‘you vote by what you see,' as if black people don't know what they want to see."

"I am sick of him - he talked about Whoopi, he talked about Oprah, he talked about me, he talked about Clint Eastwood. Spike needs to shut the hell up!"
