Season two
of Empire be boring in the least as some of your favorite rappers and singers
keep getting added to the show. After Chris Rock, Alicia Keys, Lenny Kravitz
and Ne-Yo joined the star-studded new season, Kelly Rowland team up with
Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson on the hip-hopera.
E! reports
that the singer has signed on to play the role of Lucious Lyon’s mother. During
season one, Lyon, played by Terrance Howard, routinely experienced flashbacks
of his childhood. This season, he will have one that features Rowland as his
mother.
No details
have been released regarding this particular scene nor how long Rowland will
appear on the show. Last month, rumors circulated regarding Rowland’s
involvement with Empire when she was sighted hanging out with the
writers of the show. “Hey, @KELLYROWLAND! Thank you for spending some time with
the #Empire writers,” the Empire Writers tweeted along with a photo of the crew
with the former Destiny’s Child member.
The
addition of Rowland certainly bolsters the star power of the show. A few months
ago, FOX was apparently courting the likes of Eminem and Oprah to appear on the
second season. While some may consider that a pipe dream, it doesn’t seem
far-fetched when it comes to Empire. Who are you most excited to see
star on season two?
Empire season two arrives Sept. 23.
