Now another Tyler Perry actor is accusing the media mogul of the same thing in a $77 million lawsuit...
Tyler Perry has been sued for sixual battery by an actor who appeared in Boo! A Madea Halloween and accuses the entertainment mogul of multiple instances of assault across several years at his Los Angeles home.
Mario Rodriguez, in a lawsuit filed on Thursday in California state court, claims that Perry subjected him to unwanted sixual advances, including one occasion in 2018 in which the filmmaker “tightly hugged” him and “grabbed his paynis.”
In a statement, Alex Spiro, a lawyer for Perry, denied the allegations. “Having recently failed in another matter against Mr. Perry, the very same lawyer has now made yet another demand from more than a decade ago which will also be a failed money grab,” he told The Hollywood Reporter.
Rodriguez brings claims for sixual assault, sixual battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress, plus a claim against Lionsgate, which distributed Boo! A Madea Halloween and did not immediately respond to a request for comment, for turning a blind eye to Perry’s alleged misconduct. He seeks at least $77 million.

Tyler’s predatory behavior is an open secret in Atlanta and Hollywood…….I remember when that Winston Jerome episode of Boondocks tried to tell us long ago about Tyler’s behavior. Man….the age of karma is in full swing. Check your energy and grab your popcorn!
I was thinking about the boondocks episode too. I’m sure there are more men out there. He better feel lucky that Christian Keyes didn’t completely outed him. Idk why he’s so ashamed of being gay in 2025?
I’m waiting for the downfall of this clown but this doesn’t sound like Weinstein or Spacey… or am I missing something? Still, I’ve got my popcorn and a Bloody Mary standing by.
@7:42. The reason Tyler feels ashamed of being gay... The Black community. His own people.
They are coming after Tyler's
Empire and coins now 😢 I wonder what he did
To make tptb mad :(
He might be ashamed of losing all them coins from the Chrisitan audience he targets. An Atl insider claims he was open with it until the fame came.
Dang, Mario is FOINE!
This is for all the ppl that holla six assault. Why do you keep going back? After the first assault move on to another gig. Your not some housewife that feels she has to stay for the kids. Thats another story. But you get my meaning. It's like you want the money and the acting job. Then you want to complain yrs later you were touched after you performed and spent the money. Your not an Epstien teen. LOLO
Tyler Perry does a lot for the community and he can find a man who's worthy of him.
How long did you think the Hollywood Elite Studios were going to allow him to UNDERCUT THEM.
Once they know your weakness- they will SEND IT TO YOU
ON A SILVER PLATTER
He just needs to come out the closet at this point.
@2:14 and @2:39…..spot the mf on!!!!!!!
I swear this country is full of bandwagon-ers. It makes it hard to feel bad for these “victims” when they’re only looking for a settlement and no jail time.
Oprah, Mama Tina, Harry and Meghan, Gale, what yall say about your boy???🤔Well..atleast he didnt Diddy them 🫩
The black billionaire curse strikes again. It seems every black billionaire, especially in entertainment will face SA or DV allegations. Then financial fraud of some kind followed by public conviction. A well oiled scheme that has worked pretty effectively.
Oh please. If there were a ploy to take down Black billionaires, Robert Smith, (the man who paid off Morehouse Class of 2019 college debt) would have been taken out by now. Tyler is a weirdo and he has nobody to blame but himself.
Robert Smith is a bad example ma'am. They definitely audited him after that Morehouse stunt and prosecuted him for tax evasion.
