American actor Tyrese Gibson has described marriage as “true wealth.”
Featuring on a recent episode of the Club Shay Shay podcast, the movie star said successful people, such as celebrity couple Beyoncé and Jay-Z, understand the concept of marriage as “true wealth.”
Gibson said, “True wealth is marriage. Jay-Z and Beyoncé understand that. Nobody needs to go home to a vibrator. Nobody needs to be alone. Nobody should be alone. This concept of being alone is bullsh*t!”
“Because most of your favorite female singers who are out here singing these songs are going home to their man, fiancé, or husband… Nobody wants to be alone. Companionship is biblical. Marriage is very important.”

The actor has been married and divorced twice. He was married to Norma Mitchell from 2007 to 2009. In 2017, he married Samantha Lee, but their union hit the rocks in 2020.
Tyrese Gibson has found critical acclaim with his new crime thriller, 1992, something his Fast & Furious career couldn’t achieve.
Since 2001, the action movie series has been Gibson’s most well-known endeavor, featuring his portrayal of the sharp and clever character Roman Pearce, which has come to define his career and typecast him as an action hero. However, despite the widespread popularity and long duration of the Fast & Furious films, Gibson seldom had the opportunity to garner critical acclaim for his acting due to the focus being on the ensemble cast, high-end cars, and explosive action sequences.
It’s no secret that Gibson is incredibly talented, holding many Grammy nominations alongside his career in film. However, Gibson’s acting career has been largely defined by Fast & Furious’ blockbuster action, with his box office success coming at the cost of being pigeonholed into the role of the funny, quotable Fast & Furious sidekick.
