Tyler Perry: ‘I Can’t Believe my Success’
Posted by Adam
The Hollywood mogul — who had a tough childhood, where he was physically abused and sexually molested — says he often can’t believe he’s a fantastically successful producer, director and actor, and is living in a mansion in Beverly Hills.
“Statistics say that I’m supposed to be in jail. And I’m not supposed to be alive,” Perry says in an upcoming interview on Oprah Winfrey‘s OWN.
“Even growing up, I thought I’d never live to see 30. Just did not believe that I would see 30 years old… Everything around me said that [wasn't] supposed to happen.”
In 2011, Forbes named Perry the highest paid man in entertainment; he earned $130 million between May 2010 and 2011.
