We have not addressed any news regarding Jussie Smollett because we wanted to wait until all the facts were in. The Empire star made headlines when news hit that he was attacked by two mask men at 2 am near his Chicago apartment on Jan. 29th. He said the men called him homophobic slurs, wrapped a noose rope around his neck and poured bleach on him.
