Tyler Perry Listed By Forbes Magazine as Highest-Paid Man in Hollywood

Tyler Perry continues to be blessed and reaping the rewards that has been given to him, with Forbes naming him the highest-paid man in Hollywood. This year, the actor/writer/producer/director took in an estimated $130 million dollars thanks to Madea, and his popular sitcoms House of Payne and Meet the Browns, both of which airs on TBS, and can also be seen in reruns on syndication.

His next show, For Better Or Worse, premieres on TBS in November to succeed House of Payne, which will come to an end after seven successful seasons and 222 episodes. Given an order of 10 episodes, it will be based on the hit play and film adaptation Why Did I Get Married? and its successful follow-up, Why Did I Get Married Too? So far, Perry’s movies have grossed half a billion dollars worldwide.
