Precious Inspires Tyler Perry to Speak About his Own Abuse

Before each of Tyler Perry's film releases he always sends out a newsletter bringing his fans up to speed on what's been going on in his life, what inspired his latest film, and a humble request for his fans to support it. Although he didn't write or direct 'Precious based on the novel Push by Sapphire' he was so moved by the similarities between himself and the main character he felt compelled to reveal his own tales of abuse and survival. In a series of 'memories' Tyler recalls how he and his mother were beaten senseless by his father, childhood sexual abuse by both male and female adults and the abuses he suffered at the hands of his paternal grandmother.
