The picture shows Taraji with what appears to be a baby bump but the 49-year-old is not expecting. Henson took the picture while she was on the set of the upcoming Netflix comedy film Coffee & Kareem. Ed Helms will play a Detroit cop in the movie and Henson plays his wife.
Lamar Odom Left Taraji P. Henson for Khloe Kardashian
Henson is currently engaged to former NFL star Kelvin Hayden but there’s another professional athlete that recently revealed details about his former relationship with Taraji.
Former NBA star Lamar Odom recently appeared on an episode of TV One’s Uncensored. In the video below, Odom reveals that he left Taraji because he fell in love with Khloe Kardashian.
Henson is most likely ignoring Lamar thanks to her relationship with Kelvin Hayden. Last year, the Empire star shared the following pic showing off her beautiful engagement ring:

The Jussie Smollett case is far from over. The updates below provide details on a Fox News host mistaken Gayle King for Robin Roberts when discussing the “Smollett Fiasco” and Northwestern Hospital
Fox News Host Mistakes Gayle King For Robin Roberts – Jussie “Smollett Fiasco”
The following video shows Fox hosts Jesse Watters mistake Gayle King for Robin Roberts. Deadline reports that the mistake occurred during a segment of Wednesday’s episode of The Five.
The hosts were discussing the R. Kelly interview and Watters compliments Gayle King for redeeming herself after the “Smollett fiasco.” Dana Perino corrects Watters, explaining that it wasn’t King who interviewed Smollett, it was Robin Roberts:
Northwestern Hospital Workers Fired For Accessing Jussie Smollett’s Medical Records
According to Complex, dozens of Northwestern Hospital employees have been fired for accessing Jussie Smollett’s medical records. One of the nurses that was terminated claims that she accidentally accessed Smollett’s file while searching for a different patient. That’s hard to believe.
Chicago Police Department Launches Internal Investigation Related To Jussie Smollett Case
TMZ reports that the Chicago Police Department’s Chief of Detectives has opened an internal investigation out of concerns that members of the force leaked information about the Jussie Smollett incident. Multiple media outlets claim that there has been tons of false information circulating about the actor’s attack.
Y’all been real quiet about the Jussie Smollett situation since it came out the POLICE WERE LYING about the purpose of the check he wrote the brothers.
The tweet below shows that Fox continues to support Jussie Smollett through these difficult times. It doesn’t look like Smollett will lose his role on Empire:
“Jussie Smollett continues to be a consummate professional on set and as we have previously stated, he is not being written out of the show.” – STATEMENT FROM 20TH CENTURY FOX TELEVISION AND FOX ENTERTAINMENT
There are times when our favorite hip hop drama series can be too much. Jamal getting shot on Empire marked one of those times. Who would have guessed it? The show’s breakout star!? Why would they kill such an important character. Jamal is so lovable! If there’s one person we all want dead, it’s Lucious.
Jussie Smollett Leaves Empire
Jamal warned Freda to leave Empire before she attempts to shoot Lucious. Could this be Lee Daniels laying foundation for the sow’s spinoff series?
Jamal is such a dominant character that he could be the star of a new series. Moreover, Lucious and Cookie are closer than they have ever been. Their relationship keeps improving. The heart of Empire is Lucious and Cookie therefore I couldn’t imagine Cookie having her own series minus Lucious. I could imagine Jamal being the center of attention on his very own series.
If there is one thing that I was not expecting it’s Jamal being shot. Jamal has become the show’s most talented star. In the show’s initial season we saw a timid Jamal who was trying to find himself. He lived in his father’s shadow. The show’s second season introduces us to a more confident Jamal.
Lucious said some very mean things to Jamal. I can’t see Jamal and Lucious forgiving each other. While Lucious attempted to accept Jamal’s sexual orientation throughout the show’s first season, he makes it clear how he truly feels in the show’s last episode.
In response, Jamal did not hold back his feelings towards his father. He tells Lucious about himself which makes Lucious very upset.
Could this be it for Jamal Lyon? I can definitely see Jamal and Lee Daniels continuing to work together but it may not be on Empire!?
The Jussie Smollett story is getting worse and worse everyday. CNN reports that the Empire star paid $3,500 to stage his attack. Police allege that he was hoping to advance his career by pulling off the publicity stunt.

Cardi B Thinks Jussie Smollett Ruined Black History Month
Just Jared explains that Cardi B called out Smollett during a live stream. Cardi was hard on the Empire actor and claims that he ruined Black History Month. That’s a bit much if you ask me. Jussie Smollett is a great African American actor but he doesn’t have the power to ruin Black History Month.
The meme below makes fun of Jussie for picking the wrong two people to stage a hate crime that involves racism:

It looks like Andre Lyon will die on Empire. In the previews for the next episode of the Fox series, we see Andre Lyon (Trai Byers) being rushed to the hospital.
Not so fast. Empire is full of plot twists so I don’t think Andre will die. That would be too obvious. Andre dying is what everyone thinks will happen so I’m sure the show’s writers will kill off a different character.
omg and Andre is dead !!! y’all cannot end it like this 🙁🤦🏽♀️ #Empire
Earlier this season, Empire‘s writers revealed that a member of the Lyon family will die this season. That member could be Lucious’ son, Jeff Kingsley. As the tweet below explains, Andre is one of Empire‘s best cast members. Why would they kill him off!?
It’s difficult to kill off Jamal or Hakeem because they’re both talented artists. Andre can sing too! I think the show should explore Andre’s musical talents and stop treating him like an extra.
The tweet below explains that Andre deserves to be happy! He lost his wife, Rhonda because of Boo Boo Kitty aka Anika. Andre’s unborn child also died and he has serious mental issues.
Lucious won a bet to meet Carlito at a high stakes poker game:

In season 5 of Empire, we’ll see Lucious and Cookie’s love life take a turn for the worst. In the first half of season 5, Lucious and Cookie’s relationship was perfect. They’re now facing financial issues as they try to build Lyon Family Management. Hopefully, Carlito will help put the Lyons back on the map.

Katlynn Simone is the “new girl” on Empire. The talented actress plays Treasure on the series. Treasure is the Lyon family’s new female singer and her amazing voice caught Cookie Lyon’s attention.

Empire will give Katlynn a new level of exposure and she deserves it. When you have talent and you appear on the series, you’re destined for success. Jussie Smollett, Bryshere Gray and Serayah McNeill are great examples. They’ll be able to successfully relaunch their music careers thanks to their success on Empire.
Katlynn Simone plays Treasure on season 5 of Empire. Cookie discovered her after visiting Andre in prison. Treasure has a beautiful voice so Cookie invites her to the house so she can sing for her and Lucious.
Toby Onwumere plays Kai on season 5 of Empire. Kai is Jamal’s new boyfriend. He’s a war correspondent who Jamal meets in London. Hakeem points a gun at Toby’s face but Toby doesn’t panic.

Andre Lyon most likely dies on season 5 of Empire. We think he’s the person in the coffin that Lucious is seen standing over. Jamal and Hakeem are more valuable because they can sing. We don’t think Cookie is in the coffin because Empire wouldn’t be Empire without Cookie Lyon!
It bet not be Cookie in that coffin, I know that. Ya'll want me to act a fool. @TherealTaraji#Empire
Andre has horrible luck and I think Trai Byers is ready to move on. His wife, Grace Byers has moved on and now plays Reeva on Fox’s new series The Gifted.
I think that was Andre in the coffin😔 his wife off the show now he’s next… #Empire
“The audience won’t know who is in that coffin until the end of the season”
Brett Mahoney recently told Entertainment Weekly that we won’t know who is in the coffin until the end off the season. He also explained that Empire‘s writers are free from constraints so death could come for anyone on the series.
Who do you think dies on Empire? Do you agree with our pick? Let us know in the poll below.
The tweet above explains that Lucious’ mother, Leah Walker could be the person who dies. It has to be someone Lucious cares about because he’s emotional and even apologizes to the person.
