According to Tyler Perry, Cassi Davis, an actor most known for playing in “Tyler Perry’s House of Payne” and its spinoff, “The Paynes,” is still alive.
With the words “This is a lie” plastered over a headline that stated Davis had passed away at the age of 58 from lung cancer, Perry himself dispelled the allegations on Instagram on February 20.
“After I’ve gotten several calls from people giving me their condolences and I didn’t know what they were talking about, I was sent this article that’s going around,” he captioned the post.
“I don’t know how she could have died and nobody told me or her. So I called her and asked her was she dead and she said hell no!”

Perry aired his outrage over the false story.
“Can whoever is responsible for this please stop you better be careful when you speak death over a child of God. This woman is loved by millions and you’re hurting a lot of people,” he wrote.
“Cassi is fine living her best life with no worries, no cares, no social media, and no drama. She’s waiting to shoot the next season of House of Payne.”
Palmer Williams Jr., who starred on “Tyler Perry’s House of Payne,” also refuted the reports of Davis’ death.
