To promote his album?
Well, someone sure is getting screwed....
He was so oppressed. Shame on America.
His show shoots in Chitown
This is probably also a lie. An excuse to cover the truth. He did it to help Kamala. I can just feel it.
That is the real truth! He is lying again
If you were a Hollywood liberal producer and needed a black gay actor, would one who was recently beat up by racist homophobic Trump supporters be the guy you would call?
There are so many things in that sentence that I have no experience or understanding with. If there is some kind of logic I need to follow I don’t see it.
That’s some kinda twisted logic! Especially considering the history of hate crime hoaxes. Or maybe he forgot to Google that...
> “A single individual”
Gotta make sure nobody asks if this was an organized effort to whip up anger at Trump supporters and provide a good “story” for D candidates in the next election.
It was a “single individual” who wanted to be paid more. Nothing else, so don’t ask.
On one hand, his Empire salary has a good chance of going to $0.
On the other hand, he’s going to end up a hero to the left. He took a hit to fight “fascism”. I don’t think he’ll be missing too many meals in the future.
Hoping his salary on empire is cut to 0, and he is jailed and fined and black listed in Hollywood.
...did he get more than Ted Danson?
chicagoans re-elected the mayor and they keep putting dems on the city council. They get what they deserve. This police superintendent makes more sense than I’ve heard come out of chicago in 30 years.
Youre right. This had nothing to do about money. He had a well known hate for Trump, and I think he had RAT leaders in the shadows supporting him in the hopes this would set off a race war! Folks, were dealing with people who want to get rid of those who disagree with them. Theyre playing for keeps and too many on our side want to find common ground with them! Be so thankful that Smolletts plans failed. This could have turned very ugly very fast, but what should concern all of us is the left is not going to stop attempting something like this again. Smollett failed and theyll throw him under the bus, yet theyll try again to invoke a race war as they tried to in Ferguson, Mo and Sanford, FL!
Mr Smellsofshit represents the perfect case for the re-institution of the public pillory .
We cannot let them get away with this lie.
If this was a white man or woman accusing black men the country would be in a uproar saying that black were victims in this hoax.
But if white people are victims it's just ok?
You chose the wrong career. You should have played football....you little weasel.
Yeah, but Jackie Robinson never hit himself with a pitch.
I once saw a youtube video about “stars that destroyed their career in a single move.” They can add one to the list, and it may be the most famous.
