'Empire' Season 3 News & Updates: 'The Unkindest Cut' Recap: Lucious Admits To Killing Frank; 'Empire' Took Shots At Ariana Grande?
Fox's "Empire" is getting fiercer than ever with its episode entitled The Unkindest Cut. Tiana was a victim of bad internet PR, Anika's in heat, Leah could be in the hot water, and Lucious Lyon's son Jamal is getting indifferent reception from his own family when it comes to his songwriting and his attitude.
In the latest episode of "Empire", Cookie Lyon got her artist Tiana mashed up with Helene's couture line and she got her a slot in the designer's latest show. There are some problems that a black woman faced with Helene, a subtle racist. For example, she wants Tiana to straighten her curly hair for the sake of her clothes.
Nessa saw this opportunity to take advantage over Tiana. She made it like Tiana "accidentally" layered her dress with a hot iron. Tiana became an exploding bomb in "Empire", ranting that Helene is just using her for PR to cover up criticisms on her that her show does not have a single black person.
The footage of Tiana's rant leaked on the internet, with Porsha saying it is even worse than that girl with the ponytail licking on a donut. Was that a clear shot to popstar Ariana Grande? With that, Helene already backtracked and mulled popstar Ellie Goulding as her replacement.
As Nessa went to the stage and performed her hit Black Girl Magic, Hakeem and Tiana plots a revenge against Helene. Hakeem warned the designer that the Lyons are actual gangsters that no one should mess with in "Empire".
There's more drama for Lucious and Anika because of his mother Leah. Leah said that the couple is having some dirty, nasty sex and they should stop. "Stop it! Sodom and Gomorrah! Stop it right now! Humpin' on the table like yard dogs" - that's where I eat, her mother said. Lucious replied with a snap: I was just about to have a snack.
What's more twisting in this is Lucious' half-brother Tariq is the one giving the juiciest information to their mother. At the same time, Leah is giving details to Lucious about Tariq's jealousy of him. Talking about momma duties.
Philip is helping Jamal to overcome his PTSD with a virtual reality therapy. Jamal is also helping himself by writing music. He sang his written song called Cold Cold Man, which is targeted to Lucious. Cookie shed a tear while Lucious was mad about it.
Things went crazy when Lucious spilled all the beans and admitted that he killed Frank Gathers. What would happen next? Catch "Empire" next week, only on Fox.
