ATLANTA (AP) -
Atlanta fire officials say they are fighting a 4-alarm blaze at Tyler Perry Studios.

A spokesman for the Atlanta Fire Department confirmed the Tuesday night fire but could not immediately provide additional details.

Atlanta television station WAGA ( http://bit.ly/JJC5eZ ) reports there were no immediate reports of injuries.

The studio's website says it includes a 200,000-square-foot studio, five sound stages and a 400-seat theater in southwest Atlanta.

In March, pop star Cee Lo performed for 1,000 donors at a fundraiser for President Barack Obama at the studios.
