(Los Angeles, Calif.) - Tyler Perry is blasting a $77 million sexual assault lawsuit filed against him last year, calling it a "money grab" and an attempt to "shake down" the actor and director. In his legal response on Feb. 27, to accuser Mario Rodriguez's Dec. 26 lawsuit, Perry's legal team declared the "Madea" franchise creator vehemently denies Rodriguez's frivolous claims of being subjected to unwanted sexual advances.
