Perry earned a great deal of backlash for his remarks, including misogyny accusations and more. Now, Palmer has come to his defense on X, arguing that critics are directing their anger at the wrong entity. “The enemy isn’t Tyler it’s the system that makes it hard for multiple black artist to shine at one time,” she began. “Oppression turns you against the person that gets the shine opposed to questioning why there can only be so few at a time. Tyler is not the gatekeeper of all black stories he’s just one creative who broke through the system. Advocating for others to do the same is the fight, not hating Tyler for his work that many do love.”
In a subsequent Tweet, Palmer also noted how Perry has employed many Black people, and urged followers not to “blame his movies for oppression.” What do you think of Keke Palmer coming to Tyler Perry’s defense amid backlash for his response to criticism?
