Antoine Dodson, known for his "hide your kids, hide your wife" catchphrase, says he did not receive payment for his appearance in "Madea's Christmas."

Antoine Dodson, a well-known figure on social media, recently spoke out about his experience working on Tyler Perry's film, Madea's Christmas. Despite traveling from Alabama to Atlanta and spending a day on set, Dodson claims he did not receive any compensation for his appearance. In a video posted on TikTok, he shared a copy of what appeared to be a script and admitted that he didn't ask for payment because he was told it could lead to other opportunities.

However, those opportunities never came to fruition, leaving Dodson feeling frustrated and questioning what he should do next. He also used his platform to support actress Mo'Nique, who recently spoke about her feud with Perry and the millions of dollars she claims to have missed out on due to his comments about her being "difficult" to work with.

Dodson firmly believes that when you have a disagreement with someone who holds the power to determine your success in the industry, you cannot stay silent. He spoke passionately in his TikTok video, saying, "There is no being quiet; you have to take a stance."

While some social media users called for Perry to financially compensate Dodson, others were not convinced. Television producer Chanel Hudson-O'Connor, also known as Theiconchanel on Instagram, voiced her support for Perry, stating that Dodson's lack of success following the cameo was not Perry's fault. She argued that Dodson should have used the opportunity to further his career and brand beyond the brief appearance he was given.

Hudson-O'Connor went on to say that Dodson's screen credit was enough and that he should not have expected to be paid for such a small role. In her opinion, this does not constitute an injustice within the acting community.

As of now, Perry has not responded to Dodson's claims. However, this situation has sparked a larger conversation about the treatment of actors and their compensation within the entertainment industry.
