Christian Keyes Reignites Tensions With Tyler Perry With out Saying His Identify

Christian Keyes is speaking once more and this time he’s making it rely.

The All of the Queen’s Males creator not too long ago took to social media criticizing how the community dealt with his hit sequence. Whereas Keyes by no means talked about exectutive producer Tyler Perry, the message was loud, clear and pointed straight on the high. And, loaded.

“It’s repeatedly disappointing to search out out that your present is coming again on the web as an alternative of discovering out from the community,” Keyes mentioned in a TikTok put up. He added that he wasn’t even despatched the official trailer.

“To see the trailer on-line and should go seek for [it], so I can attempt to obtain the trailer for the hit present that I created for this studio and this community as an alternative of getting it despatched when all people else is getting theirs.”

Keyes was calling out the machine behind the scenes, however some suppose the white whale is Tyler Perry.

Keyes’ relationship with Perry seems to have quietly frayed. Although Perry govt produces the present, Keyes has lengthy maintained that he created the sequence himself over 15 years in the past. We consider this. And on this newest video, he additionally shared that his “created by” credit score was stripped away in season two. SMH! The credit score was regained after involving the Writers Guild of America. That’s a heavy transfer for somebody working below Perry’s shadow. I’m glad he made daring strikes to guard his IP.

However there’s larger drama.

Tyler Perry at the moment faces a multimillion-dollar lawsuit from a person accusing him of sexual harassment. The case is pending and the motivations behind it have been questioned. Some say the lawsuit is a thinly veiled try and out Perry as homosexual. Tyler Perry isn’t homosexual, he had mentioned time and again.

Keyes by no means touches on the lawsuit. However the timing and tone of his statements have triggered rumors. About two years in the past, Keyes hinted at dropping bombshells on somebody highly effective, a mentor. Many assumed was Perry. They return to these Madea performs. Nonetheless, these revelations by no means got here. Now, he’s as soon as once more venting. He’s checking BET and BET+, however the large boss is Perry.

Not not, as a result of Keyes is taking his ball and going to play elsewhere. “It’s lower than the studio. It’s lower than the community. It’s as much as me, fortunately,” he mentioned. His prequel and spinoff initiatives will discover new properties on different streaming platforms.

This saga is one other case of behind-the-scenes trade politics. Keyes might need a deeper story, however not prepared to inform it but. Regardless of the fact is, he appears decided to guard himself even when it means enjoying chess. After all, the world needs him to flip the board over!

Hold pushing!
