Jussie Smollett, a young actor and singer appeared on several TV shows and at this time in the actor of the Empire, recently accused of attacking himself for the benefit of self-promotion. Did he have enough clean wealth to support himself until his career recovered from a hit?
Born in Santa Rosa, California, Jussie Smollett is the third of six children owned by her parents. He attended the Catholic Paramus High School in Paramus, New Jersey. His father was a Jew, while his mother was an African-American.
Jussie began her acting career at the age of 10 years, with a role in the mighty duck. Two years later, he appeared north, directed by Rob Reiner. He and the five brothers and sisters, Jazz, Jocqui, Jake, Jojo, Jurnee, starred in ABC himself. This sitcom was short-lived and only aired for one season in 1995. After that, Jussie did not get another role until 2012, when she appeared in thin. The LGBT themed film was directed by Polik-Ian Polk. In the same year, he published his EP album The Poison Hearts Club. He also appeared on the Mindy project in 2012 and took revenge in 2014.
The break actually came in 2014 when he was given the role of Jamal Lyon in the imperial TV show. Jamal is a gay musician, desperately trying to get recognition from his father and the interpretation of Smollett is described as innovative. He remained with the cast for the following season and even directed the episode of the show in season four.
Smollett Gay black and openly reported he was attacked in Chicago in January. He said that two white men wore a ski mask and a maga hat repeatedly kicked him and put the rope on his neck.
The Chicago police department opened an investigation into the incident, suspecting racial crime. TMZ then said that the attacker shouted “this is a maga country!”, Which was confirmed by Smollett, even though he did not say it in his original statement. Smollett also said that the attackers poured unknown fluids on it during the attack. Chicago PD issued a statement that read: “The perpetrators began to hit the victim with their hands about the face and poured unknown chemicals on the victim.”
Smollett was treated at the Northwestern hospital for his wounds, numbered damaged ribs and several lacerations.
This attack gathered extensive media attention, drawing great support for Smollett from many of his colleagues. Democrat Senator and presidential candidate Kamala Harris and Cory Booker said that the incident was a modern version of Lynching, even requesting federal anti-lynching bills.
But when Chicago PD widened their search for attackers, everything began to break down in a different direction. The police raided the house of two suspects, found bleach and other items that could be used in the attack. The suspects in question are two brothers of Nigerian descendants, who have worked as extra in the set of kingdoms. After being questioned at the station, both of them were released at no cost. They claimed that they knew Smollett formed a set and that they also went to the gym together.
Police spokesman Chicago Anthony Guglielmi said: “Because new evidence as a result of the current interrogation, the individuals who were questioned by the police in the case of the empire have now been released without filling and detective have additional investigative work to solve it.”
Then, the police said: “The police are investigating whether the two individuals carry out attacks – or whether the attack occurred at all.” A source in Chicago PD revealed that they were now investigating the claim that Smollett had paid $ 3,500 to the alleged striker to hold the entire incident. There is even a brother incident that bought a rope. If the accusation turns into reality, Smollett is possible in serious trouble, when falsifying racial crime is a serious problem that brings a sentence of prison. That could mean ending his career.
