Their clothes a Chinese print Vivienne Westwood number for Perry and a lace black top and green ballgown skirt for Minaj were fun with a whiff of wow factor.
In fact, I would dare say the images of black men in many of Tyler Perry's movies, which are widely supported by the black community, are far more offensive than what I saw in that commercial.
Perry offered them something akin to what their preachers offered: an entertainment for hardworking black Christians who wanted, at least for a couple of hours, to be distracted from the truth about their failure to advance in their own country.
