Jussie Smollett has reportedly been cut from 'Empire' production this week as investigation continues into his alleged attack
Nelson points at Jussie and says; “Ha Ha!”
Smollett has been cut from five of nine scenes.
55% cut. I guess they still believe half of what he says.
The writers might want to start planning on some prison scenes for his storyline next season.
He’ll next be exploring co-productions with Kevin Spacey.
Cut!
This is a Hollywood hate crime on so many levels. /sarc
Next they’ll kill off his caricature.
put a fork in him, he’s done.
The Drudge headline “EMPIRE STRIKES BACK”.
Sounds about right.
But...but...they said it was untrue he was being written out. If you can’t trust studio heads, who CAN you trust?
Arrest his stupid ass already. Sheesh!
But it appears that Monico and Smollett parted ways on Saturday and Smollett hired Chicago attorneys Todd Pugh and Victor Henderson.
As an aside, when attorneys like Michael Monico leave a case, it is not because the client fired him...it is because the attorney concluded (due to new information) that the case is weaker than previously thought.
I wonder what Rosanne is thinking right about now?
They’re giving him more of a chance than they gave Roseanne Barr.
It’s a TV show?
I honestly thought it was a stage play...
Maybe the writers will go back and cut all scenes of Juicy Smuglette out of past episodes. Hey, they made a PG version of Deadpool 2, so anything is possible. It’s kind of like how Trump is erasing Obola’s history and legacy.
Those racist homophobes at Fox!
But, Fox completely backs and defends him.
When you fake a racial attack and forget about the security cameras and now everybody knows you’re a lying douchebag.
Yeah I hate when that happens.
Wouldn’t it be nice if “news” organizations fired everyone who reported that this creep was assaulted by white guys in MAGA hats?
