FOX hit ‘Empire’ is heading to the 2015 Billboard Music Awards.
Details below…

Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)We’ve made no secret of our love for ‘Empire’ and the semantics of its success. However, we’re just hopeful that all involved are being mindful of the risk of overexposure.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)With the show being such a ratings juggernaut (a surprise one at that), it garnered a lot of coverage. Indeed, who could forget the weekly climbs in viewership and the major buzz that in itself caused? Clearly not FOX, who are reportedly gearing up to bring the show back for its second season earlier than planned (see: anytime from September ).
From where we’re standing, it’d be wise to pace out performances such as this to give folk a chance to actually miss the show ahead of its return.
Just our two cents. Anyway…

Boooo!
but what stages is tuna-melt booking and where is all hands on flops on the billboard charts?
Everything that you just said is invalidated because you and just like many people are still checking for the SLAYAGE of TinaSlay Slay boo boo! If you weren’t you wouldn’t ask any questions. And I quote Queen Aaliyah “Dust yourself off and try again” troll 😀
HASHTAG: #FakeAssAaliyahStan
Tinashe is a pretty light skinned princess but she definitely wouldn’t have a successful music career for now she doesn’t have the It thing, she’s still extremely mediocre
WHY????????????????
Can’t wait I love, Love Loveeee the show & so does 17million other people. Lol But in all Realness this is a good look for both BBMA & Empire & this could have a big impact for ratings & the Artist of the show like Jussie & Bryshere. I think it will big great!
Great to hear Ms Jussie singing
Stop Trying So Hard… The “Ms” Was Unnecessary… Much Like Your Comment, Furthermore Like Your Existence
How old are you? Who cares what u have to say; millions of people are over empire they gagged everyone with a short season
This overexposure is going to end the show before it starts. 🙁 Still, I’ll watch them perform.
