Two weeks after Jussie Smollett was savagely attacked in a hate crime, the Empire star speaks. In a recent interview with Robin Roberts of Good Morning America, Smollett discussed the incident and the many "doubters" who questioned his story. The actor told Roberts he thought the incident was a racist and homophobic attack - he remembered that his assailants were "F * cking Empire n *****" and "This is MAGA country, n ***** "- and he insisted that people" would have supported him a lot more "if he had been attacked by" a Muslim, a Mexican or a black man "and not by whites.
THESE ARE THE GUYSGMA
Jussie Smollett says he's safe ... the two men on the surveillance photo posted by the police are far more than interested people. They are the men who shouted homophobic and racist epithets at him, tied a noose around his neck and bleached him and beat him.
