    Success is derived from countless attempts and never ending confidence in one’s fate and abilities. My name is Abdoulaye Diallo. I am one who can shed light in a dark place. My personality is very welcoming and I am a very humble person. My goofy persona mixed with my mellow yet over achieving attitude makes me a character that is rare to find. I look up to giants such as Mr.Perry and Ms. Winfrey with much admiration and respect for their craft and indulgence in television and the community. This is a great opportunity for whoever is chosen. While I am a force to be reckoned with due to my competitive nature, I would like to congratulate whoever ends up on the cast. See Yall There Haha

    My name is Gerri Jones and it would be a blessing for you to consider me. I have been a fan of Mr. Perry’s work since the first stage play that I was able to buy, which was Diary of a Mad Black Woman. I have been looking for new opportunities for quite some time and like a preacher said in one of his messages, to receive a big blessing sometimes you have to step outside the comfort zone and take steps in Faith knowing that God will order my steps in the direction that He would want you to go. I do have some experience in performance but I am open to learn more. I pray that you will allow me a chance to show what I can do and that you will see potential in me.

  16. Ashley Harris

    I have been passionate for years to take a shot a something this great. I have what it takes and I believe that anything is possible when we try. I decided to write a comment because I have taken classes and even was considered the best in my class, to not have any experience prior to those classes. I worked with a major organization in Atlanta from November to February 2014. I also did more work this past spring. I’ve had a chance to meet Rhayvn Drummond and many more ppl. They all shared their opinion; which I greatly appreciated. I have perfected and stayed with my craft since November, and am definitely looking to become apart of this field. I am familiar with just about everything Mr. Perry has done, my mom a d I are huge fans. This is indeed my passion, although I know that everything takes time. I would definitely be honored to hear something back. To have an opportunity to showcase my talent would be a big deal for me and a dream come true. I have definitely put faith and alot of money out there to accomplish something
    in this field. With God I know all things are possible!!!

    Dear casting directors.
    Hello. My name is Cicely.
    People say I have a God giving acting talent. When acting I feel like I’m no longer me and I transform or lose myself well into the character. Maybe thats why people say I have the talent.

    Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey,
    Is this site something worth typing on ? I am not sure but why not give it a try. I am 25 years old and I am from the very small town of Arcadia, Louisiana. A population of a whopping 3500 residents. I have been singing all my life and have been in a number a local theatres plays and musicals. Three years ago , the age of 22, I weighed 700 lbs. I now have lost over 400 lbs. due to having the gastric sleeve surgery and the good Lord having mercy on my soul and letting me start life a new. I was given 2 years to live before I had heart failure if I did not have the surgery. I took the bull by the horns and have been dragging that damn heifer around ever since. I now find that if you do not chase your dreams , what is this point of dreaming. Tyler Perry , Your movies and motivational plays have truly touched me in ways that some don’t understand. I also want to state, this is not no woe as me paragraph , this is a , ” Baby , I am Alive, Well , Blessed and I’m going to make it one day . ” Everyone has a story I understand, I can sit here and tell you I can act, I can Sing , Hell, I could be rapper, but I cant talk or sing that fast to save my life. One thing that I can say , is I’m strong, honest, motivated, and respectful , oh and yes I can sing and act but that’s ya’lls call.

  49. Dazhane'

    People who dream are excited about the world. They could lie and say “No im not” but honestly yes they are. I dream a lot in my sleep, in my car, during school, on the bus, while I paint, but lately I’ve notice none of my dreams come true. Why? well because all I ever do is dream. you can’t dream and never act. Martin Luther King Jr. Dreamed but he also acted upon his dreams and his goals. That’s why I’m writing this…. to act on my dreams. My name is Dazhane’ am a seven-teen year old African American child who is blessed with many gifts. with these gifts I will like to take the time to show you guys how I work hard to succeed in life.

  64. Dominique Whyte

    Creative,dramatic,overturning energy that will keep the current audience and new audiences glued to the show I believe my character will capture the cast plus woo the audience I would become Candace’s best friend because we would have the same view points I would even Win other friend because they would think I’m a breath of fresh air honest sweet put together I would act the part but then I would betray Candace’s with exposing her motives pose as I’m in love with Jeffery and we would get engaged to show that he isn’t gay in public view but he still would be but then I would be secretly pregnant by Wyatt so his family can pay me off to not mess up their image. Please pick me I can offer great acting ,help out with story line and promote to other audience that will love the show even more I have acted in plays in Cincinnati and low budget movies I have Ideas and love to be apart of a growing show to ultimately win a Grammy for the show thank you again

    HEY!!! My name is Mycah and I would love to be on this show. I have been watching it since it first came out and I feel in love with it. I know a little bit of sign language but I am still taking this class in school. I have a very outstanding personality and I love to interact with people. I don’t care what people think of me so I don’t have a hard time showing off on screen or off. Acting is my dream and I am going to tell you about my acting career.

    When I was 3 years old I was in my first play at my church with a man named T.J. Hempfield. Who is the writer of the movie Perilous Times. Around those years I took many dance class and I still do hip hop to this day. I did a lot of more tiny plays at my church and sang too. When I 12 years old I did two plays at the same time. I was in Little Mermaid as a coral aires and The Sound of Music as Sister Berthe. The most recent plays that I was in was Hairspray as Little Inez and The Cross and The Light as a towns child. That play was at the music hall in Detroit, Michigan and it was very fun.

    I think that I would be perfect for this show and I could really impress you. I have been to many talent agencies and I have also been to The Event in Orlando, Florida and got 4 callbacks from there. I want to see where my life will take me and if I can have my big break. When I see talent agencies they all say I have a baby face and look like a 9 year old. Which, I know, is a good thing in the acting business because you can last longer on TV like Miranda Cosgrove on iCarly. I hope will think about me for this TV show.

  68. Marsha L.Bays

    I just basically want a chance to not only become a actress but to also work with Mr.Tyler Perry. I pray that Mr.Perry will give me a chance because he definitely won’t regret it 😀 I have so much confidence in myself that I know one day I’ll win a Oscar!!!!!

  69. ANGEL MOBLEY

    Hello OW and TP,
    I am a fan of your shows, movies, and plays. It has always been my dream to become part of the cast in your shows and movies. My husband and I have cared for my parents, which were ill, over the years and I put my dream on hold. They have gone on with the Lord now and I can spread my wings a little bit more. God’s word tells me so in Habakkuk 2:2-3. At some time, I would like to share the story of my life with you both, and would love to see it in a movie and maybe even a book. My husband and I married in 2009, lost my mother in 2010, lost my father in 2013, and we never had a honeymoon. My siblings were always too busy to babysit our parents for a few hours for us to attend a movie or go out to dinner. OW and TP, when you select me as part of the cast for your shows and movies, this will truly be a dream come true and a honeymoon to remember. I have a BS in Business Management, I am 5’10, cinnamon color skin, people loving, born in PA, but have lived in Jax., FL for several years. People tell me that I favor Janet Jackson and that I am very articulate with a very unique voice. OW and TP, I am ready to make this move. Please call on me!
