13 Times Madea Spoke The Truth
She always tells it like it is.
Tyler Perry blew up the box office this past weekend with his newest Madea offering, Boo 2! A Madea Halloween. The comedy brought in $21.6 million in the U.S. and Canada, delivering new zingers from everybody's favorite sassy grandma. In honor of Madea, we had to revisit some of her greatest moments. Here are one-liners we will never forget.
