I have been trying not to say anything annoying about all this Empire controversy. First it was cookie Lyon and luscious fighting like cat and dogs on set, making it difficult to shoot this second season. Now ratings have dropped by 3million views in the second episode? What's going on here? First ever all black film that goes platnum like this and you guys can't hold it together past a second season? Now 50 cent says its cos of too much gay stuff. I tire abeg.
TheWrap previously reported, that the TV show “Empire” attracted a massive 16 million viewers during its premiere last week. But the ratings dipped on Wednesday night to 13.7 million viewers. While those are still huge numbers, 50 Cent who has a long-running beef with “Empire” jumped at the chance to gloat.He said he knows why “Empire’s” ratings dipped in its second episode of the season- too much “gay stuff.”
In an Instagram post that has since been deleted, Fifty shared a page called @industryonblast_ that said the Fox show’s ratings fell because of too many celebrity cameos and “gay” plots.
“There are 3 million less viewers who tuned into last night’s Empire episode!!!! did you watch it?” the post said. “We could not take the extra gay stuff or celebrity stuff last night!!!!”
50 Cent chimed in with his own commentary by urging Cookie Lyon, “Empire” character to call him for help.
“EMPIRES TV RATINGS TOOK A HUGE HIT. Ok I’ll stop now. COOKIE CALL ME BABY. I’ll tell every body to watch the show for you. LOL,” he wrote.
The rapper, who in the past has accused the Fox series of copying the promotional campaign of his Starz drama “Power,” mocked the Fox series last week on Instagram after it took a dig at him in its Season 2 premiere.
During Wednesday’s episode, Cookie Lyon dropped a wisecrack calling 50 Cent “thirsty.”
Haven't seen it yet but it isn't suppose to drop if they were as hot as season one. I guess Taraji and Lucious didn't bring it this time. Annoying.
Na so our own dey be.
