FirstLadyB: Entertainment News With A Purpose

Ain’t no way we were going to get Tyler Perry, Oprah Winfrey and Bishop Jakes in the same place and not have some church….

To cap off his history making weekend, Tyler Perry had some church during Sunday Brunch on the lawn of his very own…history making, brand new, state of the art movie studio in Atlanta… The brunches theme was “Glory to Glory.”

This is how you make sure that Jesus is glorified, you bring in Bishop Jakes to bring the message, and you top it off with music from Shirley Caesar, the Clark Sisters, Yolanda Adams, and Smokie Norful.

I can’t get enough of the way Tasha Page and Rhonda Chambers blessed the folks with a rendition of “Speak Lord” from The Color Purple, Lady O’s reaction says it all.

Church. #ImagineThis @tylerperry made sure Jesus was glorified this morning. An unreal message from @bishopjakes and music from @smokienorful, @thelegendaryclarksisters @yolandaadams and @pastorscaesar. It was a morning to honor The Lord for all He has done in not only @tylerperry’s life, but the people who have been blessed by his hard work. @iamaventergray thank you for lifting Jesus with me today. Time to dream bigger. @myrelentlesschurch WE WILL SEE YOU NEXT SUNDAY! Love y’all.

Me and @jadapinkettsmith clean up NICE! We flew down to ATL to be with @tylerperry as he opened the FIRST and largest Black-Owned studio. This moment is monumental in so many ways! And a sound stage in my name… I’m inspired and honored to be part of something of this magnitude. @tylerperrystudios : @westbrook @jas
