NewAge And Self-Help: Life's Little Man-Poison

Patricia comes to Gavin's office with a giant cake, the kind that strippers pop out of. She makes all of Gavin's co-workers sing 'Happy Birthday,' even though it isn't his birthday. Then out of the cake comes a small, scantily clad gay man, singing 'It's Raining Men.' Patricia -- who, I should point out, is wearing a suit and tie for some reason -- has done this to humiliate her husband. Duly embarrassed, Gavin storms out of the office, pursued by a screeching Patricia, gets in his car, speeds out of the parking lot, smashes into a passing truck, and dies. In the epilogue, a year later, Patricia meets a new, awesome man played by Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. The end. I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP."

-- Eric D. Snider, reviewing "Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married, Too?" - Perry is Oprah Winfrey's pal, so it figures cancer enters the picture eventually, and Janet Jackson's "Patricia" is not only a self-help author, but one who can do anything she wants to a man, and get rewarded for it - especially if it involves a humiliating gay reference, which Perry must have thought would be just the thing to make it even more crudely feminist (a la Oprah) without the risk of becoming Cinematical.
