DESCRIPTION

I always enjoyed talking to Tyler Perry. Say what you want about the prolific writer/director but he’s doing his own thing and marching to his own beat! In his new movie, “The Single Moms Club,” Perry ditched his usual heavy-handedness and gave us a commendable film. Big credit goes to Nia Long and the rest of the “single moms” cast such as Wendy McLendon-Covey, Amy Smart, Zulay Henao, and Cocoa Brown.

In this interview, we talked about Perry’s interest in paying homage to single mothers, and Long’s attraction to her character. She was specifically happy that her son, Massai, played her real-life child in the film. Oh yeah, in the movie, Perry’s character said that Long has a lazy left eye. So I inspected it closer, and Perry was wrong!
