  • In this flashback from earlier this year, Malik Yoba spoke about his experience while working on the hit show "Empire" with the now highly controversial Jussie Smollett, who he said reminded him of himself as he considered him family. Additionally, he notes that he saw a hunger and desire for activism in Smollett when they first started working together, while shutting down the rumor that years ago he mistakenly outed him as a gay man to the public when at the time he had kept that information private. "The internet has no chill," Yoba said of the rumor, as he added that the controversial programming on "Empire" has now spilled over to real life.

To those who don't know him, he was at the top of his game on a #1 show with costar Michael. Malik has always been positive & not afraid to speak up!! Loved how he shut u down, firmly & politely & then questioned YOUR motives for asking. Lol I didn't hear of those Empire rumors so glad u mentioned them. Lol

    Jussie starred in a gay themed movie, “The Skinny” a year before he became a star on Empire. I could never understand why they blamed Yoba for outing Smollett on the show when most people knew he was out years before. Malik was blackballed by Lee Daniels for more reasons than we think, outing Jussie was just an excuse. Yoba had other issues as well.
