In a letter to his readers posted on his website, playwright/filmmaker/director Tyler Perry told fans that a woman has been stalking him. “I’m trying to be careful how I say this without inciting this person, but I have a stalker,” wrote Perry. He was so afraid for his life that he was forced to hire extra security. “I hate to have big guys following me around,” he said.

Perry said although he has never met the woman, she’s shown up at his door several times, sends him “hundreds of emails a day”, and has already planned their wedding complete with rings and everything.

I’m not surprised by this because certain people have the tendency to over exaggerate things a bit. I for one don’t believe his stalker is a female. I’m going to need Mr. Perry to go ahead and kick open that closet door since its been hanging off its hinges for awhile now anyway.
