False reports of a celebrity’s death can be deeply distressing for their loved ones and fans. Unfortunately, actress Cassi Davis, known for her role in Tyler Perry’s Madea family and House of Payne, has been a target of such hoaxes multiple times. In response to these disturbing rumors, Tyler Perry, a long-time friend and collaborator, took to Instagram to reassure everyone that Cassi Davis is alive and well while urging an end to these hoaxes.
Cassi Davis, 58, has been a part of Tyler Perry’s projects for nearly two decades, and she is recognized for her roles as Aunt Bam in several Madea movies and as Ella in House of Payne. Perry, who posted the update on behalf of the actress since she has no social media presence, shared a humorous take on the situation in his caption. He mentioned that he called her to confirm that she was indeed alive.
Tyler Perry injected humor into the largely unfunny situation, recounting their conversation. According to Perry, Cassi Davis and he joked about the situation, with Davis remarking that she felt like she was in heaven because of the delicious food she was eating. The actress also mentioned that when she read that Al Sharpton had attended her funeral, she tried to reach out to him to express her gratitude for his attendance.
Cassi Davis noted that this was the third or fourth time she had been the victim of such a hoax. While they laughed about her seemingly having more lives than a cat and compared her to “the boy who cried wolf” (indicating that people may not believe it when the day eventually comes), Tyler Perry ended his message on a serious note, emphasizing that death is a grave matter for many people experiencing challenging times, particularly those battling cancer, as the hoax article falsely claimed that Cassi Davis had died of lung cancer.
Celebrities often use humor to dispel rumors of their deaths, and Tyler Perry’s Instagram post provided a lighthearted yet poignant response to the situation. It’s reassuring to have official confirmation that Cassi Davis is still alive, and one can look forward to seeing her in House of Payne, with Season 12 expected to be part of the 2023 TV schedule. Additionally, fans can keep an eye on upcoming theatrical releases with the 2023 movie release schedule.
