Jussie Smollett could take home NAACP Award Saturday

"Empire" actor Jussie Smollett is having a big week.

His charges for allegedly staging a hoax hate crime against himself were dropped, and this weekend he could take home a big award.

Smollett is nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 50th NAACP Image Awards on Saturday.

He hasn't said whether he'll attend the televised ceremony or not.

But Smollett arrived in Los Angeles Wednesday night.

He is quite the actor, he even acts like a hate crime victim

If he wins, he can pawn it to pay for the investigation!

My question for the NAACP is, Is this the best you got?

He was the leading actor in a poorly staged hoax. Should get their purple eye award for the damage he did to race relations.

Well, Obama did get a Nobel prize for nothing. Seems fair...

He is an embarrassment to his race. Period!

He should have been stripped of any chance of an award when all this media frenzy of his started. But of course the NAACP will be happy to honor anyone with so much media attention, no one ever cares if its good media news or not just as long as it's out there and gets attention. It's getting almost to the point that you could kill someone and be convicted of murder and still receive an award.
