That Grape Juice was on-hand at the BET Awards 2022 and so too was Jussie Smollett. Surprisingly.
Having kept a relatively low profile amidst ample legal drama, the actor has returned to the spotlight with his new film project, ‘B-Boy Blues.’
Streaming now on BET+, the movie is billed as a compelling re-telling of James Earl Hardy’s novel about a same-sex romance.
Speaking with TGJ’s Archie Jay, Smollett expanded on the importance of the flick, shaking off anxiety, and more.
Check out the interview above and be sure to let us know…

Not interested in anything he has to say. Anybody that can do what he did doesn’t deserve spotlight imo.
