There’s nothing like good music! The songs on Empire are always amazing and we can’t wait for Season 3 to start! One song from the show’s first season stood out from the rest!
Coutney Love’s Empire song, ‘Walk Out On Me’ was many people’s favorite memory from the show’s initial season.

Courtney Love heard rumors that Empire’s co-creator, Lee Daniels, wanted to work with her yet she was still surprised when he asked her to make a guest appearance on the Empire TV show. After a friend gave Courtney Lee Daniels’ number, she texted him and he called her two minutes later, explaining to Love that he had a role for her.
Courtney Love’s role as Elle Dallas on season 1 of the Empire TV show was unforgettable. She is a top-selling artist at Empire Entertainment managed by Cookie Lyon.
Love explained that she was originally going to play a Whitney Houston kind of character yet she is Courtney is no R&B singer therefore the Patti LaBelle song Lee Daniels wanted her to sing didn’t quite work out. Daniels used his talent to overcome the issue, changing the role to be more appropriate for Love’s amazing rock voice.
Elle Dallas’ Empire reign may be over for now but we are hoping she makes an appearance in the near-future! She was one of the show’s only characters raw enough to match Cookie Lyon’s intensity.
