After the success of Madea Goes to Jail, Tyler Perry is admitting that he would be a fool to shut her down now:

Perry, who recently told PEOPLE he looks forward to escaping to his own private island when he turns 40 in September, has announced on his Web site about his other future plans – involving Madea, “I have been saying for years that the moment people stop coming to see her she will die a quick death,” he writes. “For years I’ve said this. Now, all of a sudden, it’s everywhere that I’m killing her off. That’s strange to me.” Only it doesn’t appear the public is tiring of the character Perry first introduced in his 2000 play I Can Do Bad All By Myself. Her latest incarnation, the big-screen Madea Goes to Jail, is topping the box-office chart – grossing more than $65 million in its first 11 days. Among Madea’s fans, writes Perry: Aretha Franklin. “I got a letter from The Queen of Soul herself saying (and this made me laugh so hard) ‘There are two things that have brought you over. One is Jesus, and the other is ‘Madea.’ And you bet’ not get rid of either one of them!’ ” Perry quotes Franklin as saying.

Only a fool would kill a cash cow like Madea. People love seeing a 6’6″ black man dress up like an old lady.

  • Sickofitt!

    He better not kill Madea. Although, I am sick of the Madea movies. He can’t kill Madea. He can stop putting that character in his movies and get some new scripts and writers. All his movies have the same plot and the same ending. Lets try something else Tyler. Is that his real name? Tyler is a young person’s name. 40 years ago black women were not thinking Tyler for a boys name. His real name is probably Marcus, Anthony, Tyrone, or Robert. All the Tylers I know are under 10 years of age.

    Obviously dummy, people grow up eventually. Just like Louise isn’t a name that sounds good for a little girl, but it does fit the person once they’re older or elderly. You sound so stupid right now. Get some common sense and take off that blonde wig, it’s f*cking witcha IQ shawty. Jeez…

  • African Princess

  • Luv-Lee

  • Luv-Lee

    @ OverTheTop
    Unnecessary

  • Resurrected

    I would love for him to make a sitcom with Madea but that would probably be too much work for him since he is Madea in the flesh.

    It would be funny I already love Meet the Brown and House of Payne.

  • Sickofitt!

    You two bytches, if your not the same hoe are dumb! let me explain this to the kids on the little bus. In the 60s people were not naming their children TYLER GOT IT!

  • smiley

  • $hit$tarta

  • Lauren the Lurker

    I for one am SICK of Madea…Tyler Perry makes goos stuff but Madea is my LEAST favorite…KILL HER OFF! KILL HER OFF!

  • Lauren the Lurker

    I meant to say makes good stuff…

    I love A FAMILY THAT PREYS…That was his best so far by a mile!

    @sickofitt!

    His real name is Emmitt R. Perry, Jr.
    People change their name all the time…
    I think he changed his for the business and also he was named after his father who was abusive so that could have caused him to change it

  • De’Vincent

    Yeah, his name his Emmitt R. Perry, Jr. He said on TV One: Live with Kathy Hughes that he changed it because his father was abusive to him and he didn’t want to carry on his name!

  • TMHESQ

    Madea is really an updated version of Moms Mabley who used her grandmotherly persona as a cover to say things that others could not get away with. Tyler needs to give credit and acknowlege her work as the genesis for his Madea character.

    DEATH OF A BLACK WOMAN

    While struggling with the reality of being a human instead of a myth, the strong black woman passed away.
    Medical sources say she died of natural causes, but those who knew her knows she died from being silent when she should have been screaming, smiling when she should have been raging, from being sick and not wanting anyone to know because her pain might inconvenience them.
    She died from an overdose of other people clinging to her when she
    didn’t even have energy for herself.
    She died from loving men who didn’t love themselves and could only offer her a crippled reflection.
    She died from raising children alone.
    She died from the lies her grandmother told her mother and her mother told her about life, men & racism.
    She died from being sexually abused as a child and having to take that truth everywhere she went every day of her life, exchanging the humiliation for guilt and back again.
    She died from asphyxiation, coughing up blood from secrets she kept trying to burn away instead of allowing herself the kind of nervous breakdown she was entitled to, but only white girls could afford.
    She died from being responsible, because she was the last rung on the ladder and there was no one under her she could dump on.
    The strong black woman is dead.
    She died from being a mother at 15 and a grandmother at 30 and ancestor at 45.
    She died from being dragged down and sat upon by un-evolved women posing as sisters and friends.
    She died from tolerating Mr. Pitiful, just to have a man around the house at 20

    She died from sacrificing herself for everybody and everything when what

    she really wanted to do was be a singer, a dancer, or some magnificent other.

    She died from lies of omission because she didn’t want to bring the black man down.
    She died from tributes from her counterparts who should have been matching her efforts instead of showering her with dead words and empty songs.
    She died from myths that would not allow her to show weakness without being chastised by the lazy and hazy.

    She died from hiding her real feelings until they became hard and bitter enough to invade her womb and breasts like angry tumors.
    She died from always lifting something from heavy boxes to refrigerators all by herself.
    The strong black woman is dead.
    She died from never being enough of what men wanted, or being too much for the men she wanted.
    She died from being too black and died again for not being black enough.
    She died from being misinformed about her mind, her body & the extent of her royal capabilities.
    She died from knees pressed too close together because respect was never part of the foreplay that was being shoved at her.
    She died from loneliness in birthing rooms and aloneness in abortion center=.
    She died in bathrooms with her veins busting open with self-hatred and neglect.
    And sometimes when she refused to die, when she just refused to give in she was killed by the lethal images
    of blonde hair, blue eyes and flat butts , being rejected by the O.J.’s, the Quincy’s, the Cuba ‘s, & the Kobe ‘s.
    Sometimes, she was stomped to death by racism & sexism, executed by hi-tech ignorance
    while she carried the family in her belly, the community on her head, and the race on her back!
    The strong black woman is dead!
    Or is she? No she isn’t, not if she’s reading this!!!!!!!!!!!

  • http://www.myspace.com/tiagurl04 tia

    although i do love madea to pieces…i actually think it might be time to let her go so that his storyline can grow, why did i get married and a family that preys was his best work and niether one had madea in it…..i loved those movies….if he can continue to build his storylines without madea then its all good…i still will support it…cuz his movies aint the cookout or soulplane…they actually have morals and meaning…

  • This I Know

    Lawd please kill off the Madea character, as well as all of Tyler Perry’s awful movies while you’re at it.

  • She 4 real

    That would be a grave mistake. I think he is just tired of cross-dressing in the public eye. I am sure he will hold on to most of his freak-um dresses so he can prance around the house in them.

  • Razzell Dazzell

    Professional suicide! He can’t….she is too much of a cash cow…I love Madea…don’t do it!

  • Razzell Dazzell

    @Who knew…what are you tryin’ to do…make me cry, think, project….damn, but thanks! :)

  • Why

    TYLER SHOULD KEEP MADEA BUT HE REALLY NEEDS TO WORK ON NEW MATERIAL. IT SEEMS ON EVERYONE ONE OF HIS MOVIES, SOMEBODY IS GETTING MARRIED IN THE END! THE MOVIES ARENT THAT FUNNY IF MADEA ISNT IN THEM, AND TECHNICALLY, I THOUGHT MADEA GOES TO JAIL WAS A RIPOFF BECAUSE IT REALLY DIDNT FOCUS ON HER BEING IN JAIL LIKE THEY ADVERTISED IT!

    I TOO, HATE TYLER’S UPPER LIP, IT URKS ME LOL

    HOUSE OF PAYNE AND MEET THE BROWN ARE THE WORST SHOWS ON TV! THE ACTORS ARE GOD-AWFUL

  • Why

    AND BTW,
    CAN WE GET TYLER TO STAY BEHIND THE CAMERA IF HE IS NOT ACTUALLY PLAYING MADEA! i THINK THAT IS SO SELFISH AND IGNORANT THAT HE POPS UP IN ALL THE MOVIES AS THIS LAWYER OR SOMETHING OF THAT NATURE! WE KNOW WHO U R MR. PERRY, IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE A PRODUCER, PRODUCE, IF YOU WANT TO BE AN ACTOR, ACT, ITS THAT SIMPLE

  • Its6amHoGetOut

    As the most interesting and smartest person on Bossip heres my opinion on what Emmitt should do:

    F*ck Emmitt and every project he puts out, so what if the number of ignorant n*ggas/n*ggettes who watch his sh*tty TV shows and Movies outnumber us educated and middle/upperclass blacks, we just cant sit here and let Emmitt keep taking advantage of them, its like watching the retarded walk into traffic and get hit by a car every day.

    Emmitt doesnt give a f*ck about the content of his sh*tty product and you can see that because he just told you “I’d be a fool to kill off that character” he’s letting you know that its all about the money he makes off you ignorant hoodsta’s who are too stupid to know when you’re being mocked, ridiculed, insulted and sh*tted on for profit by some 6’3 faggot ass n*gga who aint about to donate sh*t to your neighborhood from his massive profits.

    Now you wonder why Emmitts father was abusive huh? I bet it has something to do with his mothers missing make up, Emmitt bleeding outta his ass or dried cum stains in the corner of Emmitts mouth everyday after school.

    So in closing Im gonna try and make this my last Emmitt Perry rant as I know I cant save the “hood” from this n*gga as he’s more addictive to poor, stupid n*ggas/n*ggettes than crack and 40′s. So ya’ll poorer illiterate negroes keep lining this n*ggas pockets with millions, I predict before the year is over TMZ is gonna have pictures of Emmitt with his tongue down the throat of some 19 year old transvestite n*gga, Emmitt will make a heartfelt apology to the millions of ignorant muthaf*ckas who buy tickets to his f*cked up “coonfests”, Dumb n*ggas/n*ggettes will be in shock because they couldnt possibly think Emmitt is gay and you know thats against law in the ghetto, he’ll donate $1,000,000 to TD Jakes looking for a publicity filled apology, wait two weeks then go buy that “paparazzi free” island so he can ass f*ck all day while counting the miilions from the release of “Madea gets Paroled”

    Love 6am

    I gotta make breakfast ya’ll

    @ Mock Rock Star
    @De Vincent

    His real name is Emmitt R. Perry, Jr.
    _______________________________________

    Thank you guys. I thought the name Tyler was very uncommon for someone born in the 60′s.

  • Its6amHoGetOut

    I wonder what would happen if i started a “F*ck Emmitt Tyler Perry” blog, would any of you progressive, middle/upperclass blacks visit? Yanno together we could stop Emmitt’s minstrel shows.

  • Yeah it’s me

    I really didn’t care too much for Madea goes to jail. There was over acting, and just bad acting. I felt ot was a waste of my money and will stick with the plays. I like Madea it’s just soem of the other people sometimes.

  • Its6amHoGetOut

    @ Yeah its me,

    I have a better idea, why dont you save your money or at least go see a movie where money was invested in a great script (slumdog millionaire), great director (Curious case of Benjamin Button) or a great producer (upcoming Angels and Demons) Emmitt Perry doesnt give a sh*t about you or the product he sells you, all he wants is your $10

  • I LUV RAY LEWIS

    WHY, WHEN THAT’S THE ONLY CHARACTER THAT YOU CAN GET AN AWARD FOR!!! TYLER PLAYS A HORRIBLE MAN..SO KEEP MADEA ALIVE, PLEASE.

    WHATSYOURSECRETDESIRE.COM

  • RE RE

    I love Madea keep hope alive!

  • Big Red “My office hours are from 9 to 5″

    I love Madea, and it’s obvious a lot of other ppl do too, bc this is his second movie that was #1 at the box office. Keep up the good work. The numbers don’t lie.

  • neshacrese

    Tyler Perry? Msdea is here to stay!!!

  • About it

    Tyler Perry won’t retire Madea.
    He is the writer/producer/director/etc. so that no one can call stereotype racist BS on his azz.
    But if he wants to flip the script, let’s see if his next no-Madea movie makes it. It won’t and Hollywood will see to that cuz they must have a negative Black stereotype.

    lol!

  • Its6amHoGetOut

    @ Jusies,

    Sorry if you feel insulted by me explaining why you dumb poor negroes need mentors.

    I have an MS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Hawaii at Manoa class 2007, I’ve worked for British Petroleum since 09/07 and my salary with bonus last year was almost $130k, i’d say that puts me right dead center upper-middleclass. You dont like what I’ve typed because Im outting your Messiah as the fraud/enemy of poor ignorant blacks that he really is.

    I bet you wish you had your $10 back now huh?

  • Its6amHoGetOut

    Oh and Jusies,
    Just to make you feel even dumber, Im gonna return to school part time, take more political science classes and apply for Law School fall 2010 as Im inspired by our native Hawaiian son President Barack Obama. I suggest you do the same.

  • Its6amHoGetOut

    @ big red,

    The same applies to you Tubby.
