On June 13, 2025, actor Derek Dixon—known for his role as Dale on BET’s The Oval—filed a $260 million lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court, alleging:
Sexual harassment and assault, including unwanted touching and groping on multiple occasions at Perry’s Georgia home
Coercive conduct, with Dixon experiencing pressure to acquiesce to Perry’s sexual advances to further his career
Retaliation, in the form of threats to remove his character or pivot his role if he didn’t comply
Perry’s team, led by attorney Matthew Boyd, has vigorously denied all allegations, labeling the suit “a scam” and asserting confidence that the claims will be “dismissed”
