SynopsisNow in paperback--this first book from Tyler Perry is a confessional memoir in the voice of Madea, the beloved, sharp-tongued, worldly, pistol-packing grandma who is at the center of his popular stage shows and the star of his #1 hit movie, "Diary of a Mad Black Woman.", If you can count on one thing from'Madea' Mabel Simmons, star of the smash hits 'Diary of a Mad Black Woman' and 'Madea's Family Reunion', it's that she's got something to say. Now the beloved, sharp-tongued, pistol-packing grandmother has her own book., If you can count on one thing from Madea ' Mabel Simmons, star of the smash hits Diary of a Mad Black Woman and Madea's Family Reunion, it's that she's got something to say. Now the beloved, sharp-tongued, pistol-packing grandmother has her own book - part memoir, many parts hard-won, hilarious, straight-up in-your-face words of wisdom. A surprisingly fresh compilation of homespun advice. - Publishers Weekly, The author's alter ego, the outspoken, worldly wise grandmother Madea, shares her thoughts on life, love, and everyone around her., In 2005, Tyler Perry took Hollywood by storm. The movie he wrote, produced, and starred in, "Diary of a Mad Black Woman," opened number one at the box office and went on to gross more than $50 million. In its first week on sale, the DVD sold 2.4 million copies. At the same time, Perry was starring nightly across the country in a soldout stage show he'd also written, produced, and scored-"Madea Goes to Jail"-even as another one of his productions, "Meet the Browns," was touring nationally. Every week in 2005, 35,000 people saw a Tyler Perry production. His second feature film, "Madea's Family Reunion," opens in theaters in February 2006. Now, this triple-threat actor/playwright/director, has written his first book, and it features his most beloved, most irreverent creation: sixty-eight-year-old grandmother Madea Simmons. Madea is at the center of all of Tyler Perry's work, and she's always unfailingly outspoken, dead-on, and hilarious. But in "Don't Make a Black Woman Take Off Her Earrings," Madea shares more than she ever has before- about herself, and about what she thinks of everyone around her. The topics inimitably covered by Madea (a term of endearment for "Mother Dear") include love and marriage, child-rearing, etiquette and neighborliness, beauty tips, health tips, financial tips, the Bible and the church, and, of course, gun care. She's brazen, feisty, and never at a loss for words, but at the heart of everything she says- and at the heart of all of Perry's work-is a resounding message of faith and forgiveness. Shockingly hilarious, surprisingly moving, and as rousing and inspiring as a great gospel show, Madea's words of wisdom, memories, and straight-up in-your-faceadvice will be cherished by Perry's numerous fans- and it all comes just in time for Mother's Day. Tyler Perry is about to take the publishing world by storm.
