There’s little over a month to go before two of TV’s hottest shows are back on the box.
‘Empire’ and ‘How To Get Away With Murder’ are gearing up for their respective third seasons and the hype machine has begun.
The networks that air both shows will undoubtedly be looking to ensure the momentum is maintained. And while trailers are still incoming, a set of new promos have been unveiled.
Peep them below…
Rihanna‘s résumé at the box-office has been hit and miss. Yet, the star is clearly shooting to score this go round. For, she has officially joined the cast of the ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ spin-off.

As ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’s often groundbreaking door closes, ‘Love & Hip Hop Hollywood‘s low brow door opens.
Fortunately, joining its cast to add some class and credentials is Lyrica Anderson, the singer/songwriter who fronts the ‘King Me’ musical series and was behind the Beyonce number ‘Jealous.’
Set to support she and her fiancee’s introduction to the cast is Princess Love (above) who joins VH1 to unleash the first eight minutes from its third cycle’s very first episode.
Much has happened since our last encounter with the Hollywood hopefuls.

The chart-run of Rihanna‘s octonary opus, ‘Anti,’ has been nothing short of impressive…on the surface.
Excluding that confusing multi-“lead” single startup and #27 debut, the album has been a Billboard 200 juggernaut, not only capturing the top spot for multiple weeks since its February 2016 debut, but also only knowing a handful of weeks outside of the top 5 for the nearly 6 months its been available.
However, what appears a clear victory to chart-watchers has been achieved on the heels of some interesting supporting stats. Even after earning an RIAA “double platinum” certification (note: some of the stats that make up this achievement include “free” downloads) and, later, a Nielsen-reported sales receipt confirming at least platinum status (a figure majorly made up of streams), Billboard confirms the ‘Work’-led work has only recently crossed the 500,000 mark…in pure sales.
Tragic or triumphant? It’s a matter of perspective we suppose.
But, while the ‘Cheers’ singer and her team lift up a glass to ‘Anti’s continued “success,” we encourage you to tuck in below to check out who else is occupying the Billboard 200’s upper rankings alongside the Bajan beauty this week:
‘Empire’ season 3 has yet to hit screens, but talk of a potential spin-off continues to gather steam.
And it’s not just speculation; said hints are being dropped by the senior staff on the hit FOX show and specifically pertain to Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard‘s characters.
