Cop a gander of Kelly Rowland!
The R&B star is one of many names set to appear in the upcoming second season of ‘Empire’ – which returns to FOX on September 23rd.
34-year-old Rowland will play Leah, the mother of Lucious Lyon (Terrence Howard) in a series of flashbacks to the music mogul’s childhood. Peep a pic from her appearance in the season 2 premiere above.
Speaking on her role, the solo Grammy winner explained:
“Through watching Leah, we learn more about Lucious’s past.”
The married mother of one also gushed more broadly about her involvement in the Lee Daniels drama:
“I am an absolute fan of the show. It was the most exciting thing to work with all of these masterminds.” {Source}
2015 and beyond is shaping up to be busy times for the singer; her new BET talent search ‘Chasing Destiny’ is in production as is her hotly anticipated 5th studio album – a set she promises will boast a more “uptempo” sound.
