The most important thing I can say is thank you so much, and Im OK, said the Empire actor and R&B singer from the stage at the Troubadour in West Hollywood in his first public appearance since he reported to police in Chicago on Tuesday that two masked men had assaulted him and put a rope around his neck while using homophobic and racial slurs.
Im not fully healed yet, said Smollett, who is black and openly gay, but Im going to be, and Im gonna stand strong with yall.
The concert had been planned long before the incident, and his family members and others had urged him to postpone it.
But Smollett said he couldnt do that.
I had to be here tonight, yall. I couldnt let those (expletives) win, he said to screams and cheers from the packed room of about 400 people. I will always stand for love. I will only stand for love.

Time to resurrect the old saying GAG ME WITH A SPOON.
I have been waiting for proof of whether this actually happened.
I’m still waiting.
I’ll save room for you in the DeLorean.
I thought he usually bends over for that.
To make this headline credible you 1st need an attacker. He still had his Subway sandwich so maybe it was Jared who attacked him. Hed be sympathetic and let him keep it!
Spot On. Needs Attention.
We’ll have proof as soon as we have proof of Trump Russia collusion. Until then, fantasy news continues.
Strong enough to beat imaginary people.
He had a Ugarte moment.
The victim is refusing all forms of cooperation, his ear witness isnt cooperating,
...
I wonder if the ear witness could hear the sound of wet grass.
They haven't given us the video which shows him after the alleged attack.
Where's the media giving us the exclusive interview with the doorman?
Lol
The odd thing is....I never heard of this faggot until this so-called incident. I believe that he is, in fact lying. Were I a betting man, I would wager that he got beat up by a couple of homies who tried to rob him and this lie is a “cover” act.
“I wonder if the ear witness could hear the sound of wet grass.”
Nice recall - for those who’ve forgotten, that was one of the pieces of “evidence” against Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin fiasco.
Brilliant.

Thanks. Hope it’s heading for a monocultural, non-vibrant, non-diverse, mono-racial, sane planet.
I’ve had it with the Chinese curse. I’m yearning for boring.
It sounds like they already did.
Thats the funniest yet!
LOL! That’s brilliant. And it fits!
