    It is such an interesting mix. From film director/producers to writer,sports man, actor, radio/tv presenter to musician. Good mix.

    @ anon 3:35pm To answer your question. Tyler Perry is gay. The Ethiopian model you see with him on red carpet is a friend that he's helping to get more publicity.

    Tyler, Congrats, you deserve it.
    Also, congrats to Steven Speilberg.
