The entrepreneur I am doing is named Tyler Perry. He was born with the name of Emmitt Perry, Jr. in New Orleans, Louisiana on September 13, 1969. Tyler has accomplished many goals and achieved great doing. He produced the next play ‘I Can Do Bad All by Myself’ in the year of 2000, which was an almost instantly a hit. In the play ‘Madea’, the character which everything is based on/around, who was portrayed after his mother and was acted by Perry himself, took the show away. Perry’s most well-known film, which received multiple awards and nominations, is the romantic comedy-drama film ‘Diary of a Mad Black Woman’. Made with a healthy set budget of $5.5 million, the movie collected a huge amount of $50.6 million, at the box-office. Currently Tyler Perry is working in the filming industry.
Tyler Perry comes from a not so good background. He had issues in his home and had a hard childhood. He suffered many years of abuse. He was one of four kids and his father was a carpenter. Perry thinks of his dad as a man to beat everything out of you for no reason and to feel as if beating was the only answer. During one point in his teenage life, he tried to commit suicide, but he changed his first name to Tyler since he had the same first name as his father at first. Perry completed elementary and middle school, but he soon dropped out high school. He received his general equivalency diploma later. In trying to find his way in professions he took part in many irrelevant jobs before his found the true passion he had. While watching an episode of Oprah Winfrey's talk show, Perry was influenced by a response on the program dealing with how writing about hard times could evolve to personal out comings. He began a series of letters to his own self,...

...jects he has created. I do posses some similar qualities to that of Tyler Perry. We both have that passion in us to be great and make it somewhere big. We both don’t have to half do things and instead do them to the best of our abilities. I had dreams just like I’m sure Tyler Perry had. And we both also take that leadership ole naturally, and people just fall behind naturally as well. We take initiative and can approach events with open and broad mind set willing to use the criticism given o us by others to improve us. When I grow up, being an entrepreneur seems nice. I know I would have to become more accustomed to the different kinds of people in the world and be willing to work with them all effectively. Entrepreneurs have the characteristic of being one already built inside them. It takes someone with courage, understanding, and a mind willing to new things.

“Kanye Ran onto the stage saying, ‘I'm sorry, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!’” (Top 10 Outrageous Kanye West Moments), says Kanye West at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards after Taylor Swift had just won “Best Female Video.” People that are like this have typically not always been this way. They were probably raised as a polite and respectful person before they were exposed to fame and fortune, and other “celebrities,” making them feel like they are the only people on the planet. Causing them to do things like that. Although, Kanye West is an amazing musician based on his 14 Grammy Awards and multiple albums going “Double-Platinum” (Manheim, James M., and Carol Brennan). He fell victim to fame and fortune, and turned into an arrogant and overconfident person making him more popular and praised among media. But looked down upon by everyday people. Kanye Omari West, born on June 8th, 1977, is a world famous rapper who, like all other celebrities, started out like a nice person who made nice music for nice families to listen to. West was a confident and competitive person even as a child, “He was determined even then to get out of his crib and be free, even if he split his head in the process—and he did. He has fought ever since to do exactly what he wanted to do—no matter what,” says Donda West, his mother in her book, Raising Kanye: Life Lessons from the Mother of a Hip-Hop Superstar. By the time West was ten, he was already creating his own raps, and according to the people around him, he was pretty good at it even at that young of an age. (Manheim, James M., and Carol Brennan) West was not too interested in school as he grew up, but he was able to get by because of his talent. If he dropped out of one ...

Adam Sandler has been a box-office draw for a decade now, with hardly a dip in fortunes since he first parlayed his break on TV's Saturday Night Live into a string of hit films. From the get-go Sandler was good on jokes about sports, six-packs and the need to stop goofing off and start playing nice with women. He made his success without any support from critics, many of whom seemed to find the frat-house element of his shtick so ghastly as to inoculate them against its sweet and silly aspects. It is unlikely that Sandler cares much for the views of festival-going connoisseurs, though he served notice on their carps by his seamless crossover into Paul Thomas Anderson's Punch-Drunk Love (2002). "I wanted to work with Sandler so much," Anderson said. "I love him… He's always made me laugh."

“Feminist” has a negative connotation nowadays; we often times here people call feminists “feminazis,” “man haters,” or even just a “bitch.” Many people think that “feminism is anti- male” (Hooks). Many female celebrities stay hush about the issues surrounding females every day, but Lena Dunham is not one of them. Stemming from a family of artists, Lena became a writer, actress, producer, and director and was put in the spotlight. Instead of keeping hush about the world and Hollywood’s issues pertaining to the mistreatment of not only women, but those of different genders and other oppressed people as well. Lena Dunham shows her bold character and feminist visions by using her pedestal to speak out on social and political issues.

So what do Tyler and I have in common besides similar views on relationships? Quite a bit, actually. Tyler was raised by his mother. His father abandoned them early in his life and only had sporadic contact with his son. I, too, was raised by my mother. She divorced my father early in my life, and he made little effort to further his involvement in my life from that point forward. " If you're male . . . your father is your model for God. And if you never know your father, if your father bails out or dies or is never at home, what do you believe about God?" Also from Fight Club. As you can see, I really connected with this novel.
