This was already discussed. He is not the employer on the production. He can give a check to whomever he wants, it's a completely different thing and violates nothing.

Perry is not the employer on this production. He did not conceive it, he did not form the business entity running the production, his studio is not involved, nobody working for the production is working for him or his businesses. He is lending his name in exchange for a shot at a Tony, like many other celebrities before him in recent years. It is unsurprising that Chris Peterson does not know or understand what this all means.
