“Tyler is, one, a great friend. He’s a great human being. He has a multi-billion-dollar business in the heart of Atlanta,” she explained on the show. “He does a lot on behalf of the community. He employs a lot of people; he supports a lot of small businesses over at his studios. So it makes sense that he would be a part of it.”
