Terrible news. What is a weird thing is that who ever did it allegedly yelled out "This is MAGA country" as they fled. Downtown Chicago is definitely not MAGA country.
Any way, a few of the things that Smollett has said. "I get tired of the idea of someone telling me what my truth is," Smollett said in the interview. "I've said from the beginning of my journey: I do not hide who I am. I love who I love. No one is going to tell me that somehow that is going to be my disability."
"I am told so many times that I should not walk truly in my blackness," Smollett continued. "That I should not walk truly in my sexuality, I should not walk truly in who I am. I say thanks but no thanks, f**k you and goodbye. I honestly think that me being myself has actually helped my career move forward."
