“$260 Million Over Leg Touching is Crazy”: Social Media Erupts After Derek Dixon’s First Interview on Tyler Perry

In the USA.

The news as it trends. See the video below. 

Actor Derek Dixon has given his first televised interview since filing a $260 million lawsuit against Tyler Perry, alleging sexual harassment and assault during his time working on Perry’s shows The Oval and Ruthless.

Dixon detailed multiple incidents, including one involving alleged physical contact at Perry’s residence.

Perry has denied all claims, with his legal team calling the lawsuit fabricated and a “scam”.

The interview aired on ABC News and has sparked widespread discussion online.

Some social media users have questioned the credibility of Dixon’s account, particularly the scale of the damages sought, with one comment noting “$24 million for leg touching is crazy.”

The case remains active, and no court ruling has been issued to date.
