In a stunning turn of events that has rocked Hollywood and Black entertainment circles alike, acclaimed filmmaker and media mogul Tyler Perry is facing a serious accusation-one that alleges sexual assault and a pattern of manipulation cloaked beneath the glitz of opportunity.
The claim comes from Derek Dixon, an actor who appeared in multiple episodes of Perry's TV drama "The Oval", and has now stepped forward with a harrowing account of what he says began as a dream opportunity and spiraled into an emotional nightmare.
From Spotlight to Shadows According to a lawsuit filed and obtained by TMZ, Derek's journey with Perry began at a 2019 industry event.
The actor claims Perry singled him out from the crowd and asked for his number, with promises of a potential role.
