Tyler Perry, Gelila Bekele Baby News; Michael Jai White Cleans Up Tasha Smith's Statement About 'Gone Girl' Actor Being 'Asexual' [VIDEO]
Tasha Smith loves "The Wendy Williams Show." Every time she appears on the hit daytime program, she immediately engages in girl talk that might be more appropriate for conversations off-camera, but because she and Williams have a high level of comfort from knowing each other for years, she often says more than she is supposed to.

That's exactly what happened when Wendy asked Tasha about what she thought of Tyler Perry's new baby. "I was shocked!" Smith exclaimed to the audience and the hot-topics phenom. "I used to think he was asexual, I didn't think he had sex at all!"
While that statement may be okay to say around friends, it is not exactly politically correct to say on national television. Tyler has yet to share his opinion of the interview (and based on how private he's been in the past-probably won't), but Michael Jai White did share his, as he is a close friend with both of them.
While promoting his new season of "Black Dynamite," Jai White discussed other trending topics in the news. In a new interview with MadameNoire, he said, "We'll tease and talk about how Tyler just has-he just is so busy, I mean, does he have time to do anything other than... writing, directing and everything else."
To further clear up Smith's candid statement, he added, "I think she just chose the wrong word... And when she said that I think she realized, wait a minute, I'm in mixed company."
