Breakout Empire star Jussie Smollett covers the latest issue of Bleu magazine. Ahead of the second season premiere, Smollett shares, “My life kind of prepared me for Jamal, because I am the middle son in real life. I am a singer.

[Laughs] That’s the great thing about playing Jamal.” Read more at BleuMagazine.com.
