Taraji P. Henson’s and Terrence Howard’s “Empire” just keeps delivering the (messy and nasty) goods that its legion of fans are devouring on a weekly basis with a delirious glee. Folks can’t seem to get enough of Lucious’ and Cookie’s shenanigans and chicanery, including their inevitable illicit affair which had been brewing underneath the surface since “Empire’s” spectacular premiere seven weeks ago.
What’s more is that Luscious’ wife Anika witnessed the former lovers bang bodies after Luscious told Cookie that he had ALS disease. For the thongs of fans, the episode was akin to inhaling helium and they went crazy on social media — and had the ratings soaring towards 13 million, expanding on their Nielsen Ratings record.
Take a look at the most hilarious responses to this week’s explosive episode of “Empire.”
