One point of contention, we’re told, was that Daniels wanted now-disgraced musician Kelly to write songs for Smollett’s “Empire” character — and even suggested that Kelly work on the actor’s own album.

Meanwhile, we’re told that Smollett would often complain to Fox execs about Daniels. “It was things like that that did not sit well with Lee,” said the insider. “He [was frustrated by] Jussie because he was constantly going over his head to Fox about their creative differences."

I can't believe Empire is still on.

Who is their audience? What is their rating?

Still on for the same reasons Dr. Who, star trek discovery, batwoman and other woke shows are still on.
The “message” is more important to the execs.

Okay, I know who Smollett is, unfortunately, but who the hell is Daniels? Or Kelly?

No, I'm not going to click the link. 8~)

So in addition to being a colossal liar, Smollett is also obnoxious to the people he works with.

Daniels is co-creator, executive producer and director of the Empire show. Seems to be a sodomite like Smollet.

R Kelly is a hip hop “artist” currently locked up and under indictment for 18 counts including sexual abuse, statutory rape, false imprisonment, forced labor plus other charges.

Looks like 3 dark blights on humanity.
