This one aspiring actress made a BOLD move when trying to get Tyler Perry’s attention.
Racquel Bailey took a leap of faith and used her rent money of $2,000 to purchase TWO of her own billboards. The signs were basically shooting her shot at the movie mogul, in hopes that he would hire her.
Unfortunately, Tyler Perry didn’t receive it well. He took to his social media to respond and basically said this wasn’t a good approach. He advised people to NOT follow in her footsteps.
Racquel reportedly was motivated by her two children to make this bold step. She said 10 years ago she wouldn’t have done this but she figured in this day and age, it was worth a shot. She wanted to show her kids that they should always chase their dreams.
She did something similar in the past but didn’t get any response from Tyler. Although this time around it may not have been the response she wanted to hear, she got feedback from him. She also landed an audition from him and is awaiting her results.
Looks like her leap of faith worked!
