Empire star Jussie Smollett has been accused of staging last month's attack in Chicago, following rumors that he would be written off the show.
However, FOX was quick to silence and dismiss the rumors, calling them “patently ridiculous”…
“The idea that Jussie Smollett has been, or would be, written off of Empire is patently ridiculous,” read a statement from FOX.
“He remains a core player on this very successful series and we continue to stand behind him.”
According to several sources, police are also currently investigating whether Jussie Smollett and the two suspects staged the attack…
“Media reports about the Empire incident being a hoax are unconfirmed by case detectives,” the Chicago Police Department said in a statement.
“Supt Eddie Johnson has contacted @ABC7Chicago to state on the record that we have no evidence to support their reporting and their supposed CPD sources are uninformed and inaccurate.”
Yesterday, Chicago Police Department Chief Communications Officer Anthony Guglielmi said that detectives may have identified some “persons of interest” that may be key to the case…
“Through a meticulous investigation, #ChicagoPolice detectives have identified the persons of interest in the area of the alleged attack of the Empire cast member,” he wrote on Twitter.
“These individuals are not yet suspects but were in area of concern and are being questioned. Investigation continues.
“Important for media reporting: The people of interest are alleged to be in the area where a crime was reported. They are not considered suspects at this time as they are currently being questioned by detectives.
“We remain in communication with the alleged victim.”
We’re glad that the police are still trying to crack the case.
And even more glad that Jussie Smollett isn’t leaving the show!

Coaching Testimonial
"The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience"
Submitted by: Karen, USA, 34
My Dating Coach really took the time to go through my profile thoroughly. First she viewed my pictures and gave me great feedback.
She read through the written portion of my profile, line by line, and gave direct feedback on how to add my personality to it.
My amazing consultant, even asked how my contacts where going and offered a few suggestions to increase my interactions with new men.
I took her advice and made the suggested adjustments.
I have received more contact from men, more views, and have started communicating with more people which was the whole point of joining the site in the first place.
The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience. Thanks!
