Taraji P. Henson Responds to 50 Cent on Criticism of Empire who made a point late last month to observe the similarities of his Starz’ show “Power” and the new Fox show “Empire,” starring Terrance Howard and Taraji, as too close for coincidence. 50 had noted via an Instagram post:
“POWER Season 2 is unbelievably good trust me. I have the best writers and show runner. I like Terrence Howard and Taraji Henson. I don’t like that They would copy the Marketing.”
Since then we’ve arrived at the premiere of Empire and it seems these comments finally got somewhere, or nah…Taraji P. Henson Responds to 50 Cent on Criticism of Empire by not acknowledging Curtis at all, and furthermore dismissing not only the show but 50 and his comments. (Check the gallery for the tweet action). The highlight including her answer to the question of “how do you feel about what 50 Cent said about you and Terrance Howard?” with:
“I pay attention to $’s NOT cents?…IJS I couldn’t even find the ‘cent’ sign!!”
Some other words, emojis and hashtags were thrown in for heated emphasis as Taraji P. Henson Responds to 50 Cent on Criticism of Empire but I’ll leave that for you to check out in the gallery.
