How The ‘Empire’ Characters Would Be Spending Christmas

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! Here’s hoping you’re reading this during a break from your family-filled celebrations — to check in and imagine what an Empire Christmas episode would look like. And I don’t mean Taraji & Terrence’s White Hot Holidays, which was a very fun holiday special, but let’s face it — it’s no episode of Empire. So let’s get our imaginations going to envision what a Lyon family Christmas would be like.

NOTE: All those mid-season cliffhangers? Let’s pretend they don’t exist for now.

Andre & Rhonda Would Host

Now that they have that enormous mansion, I think the responsibility now falls on Andre and Rhonda Lyon to host the holidays for the Lyons. Naturally, Rhonda would go all out decorating for Christmas, with a glamorous tree and lots of trimmings.

Before any celebrations go on, Andre would insist on the family attending Midnight Mass at a church. The rest of the family agrees to do so — reluctantly.

The Lyon patriarch isn’t having such a good year — his company just got turned over to someone else and his sons aren’t the biggest fans of him right now. It’s hard getting him into the holiday spirit…until Jamal initiates a family sing-a-long!

Hakeem Would Invite All The Christmas Orphans

Let’s say Laura or any of the other Mirage a Trois ladies weren’t able to make it home to see their families — I bet Hakeem would invite his girl group over to celebrate with the Lyons. Whether or not Cookie approves is to be seen.

Duh. She’d also try to control the event from Rhonda, because Cookie’s always in charge of her family.

And Jamal Would Lead The Sing-A-Long

The easy-going Lyon brother would try to keep the peace and be happy as long as there’s music.
