Tyler Perry No. 1 At The Box Office Second Week In A Row
And believe it or not, Tyler says he's just as sick of Madea as some of you are. Tyler says he wishes he could kill Madea off, but admits as long as people want to see her, he will continue play her. “(She’s) a whole lot of fun to watch. But to do it is a nightmare. It’s all one suit that I’m zipped into, so it’s all heavy. The hips are heavy. And the more I sweat, the heavier it gets. I see why women have back problems who have large breasts. Holding those things upright can be tough.” All that aside, Tyler Perry's Madea's Class Reunion is in pre-production.
Tyler also reveals that he is planing to buy an island for his 40th birthday September 14. As for what he plans to call his personal slice of paradise Tyler says, "It won't be Tyler Perry's Island! I'm so sick of seeing Tyler Perry all over everywhere! I'll know what to call it once I'm there. It'll speak to me."

Beyonce Says She Will Never Retire
Beyonce tells Ebony her and Jay-Z stay out of each other’s business dealings. “He was very successful before I met him and I was very successful before I met him. So we have so much respect for each other, and respect for each other artistically. We are very close friends, and I believe he is the ultimate artist and he has the same feelings for me.”
Asked to describe herself as a wife: “I don’t know how to talk about it because I don’t like to talk about it. But I have a great example of a great wife, and that’s my mother. And I have great friends around me that have been married, so I’m lucky to have really good examples. And a great husband.”
She says they are just like any other couple. She is learning to cook and he’s getting over his single-guy habits.
One thing she does to get on his nerve: “I’m a little messy. Oh, yeah. Whenever I’m out in public, I have to be put together. When I get home, I rebel against it and I don’t want to take care of anything. I drop it. I’m relaxed. I don’t have any shoes on. No makeup. My purse is in the kitchen. I think that is most difficult thing for him. He’s very, very organized. I’m extremely organized when I’m working, and I work so much that when I get home I don’t want to think about anything.”
As what Jay-Z does that get on her nerves: She laughs, “I won’t say.”
Asked about a quote from years ago where she said she wanted to retire by age 21. She says she could have retired at that age but now she has no intention of ever retiring: “I’ve worked so hard on my craft, and I will never stop. I will never retire. I love it way too much.”
