Taraji says NO to the ‘N-Word’ on EMPIRE while Terrence Howard wants to use it!
(CNN)Terrence Howard would like a little bit more reality on his hit show “Empire.”
The actor, who plays hip-hop recording mogul Lucious Lyon on the series, recently told Entertainment Weekly that’s he’s “mad that we don’t say n****r in the show.”
“Why is TV showing something different from the reality of the world?” Howard asked. “Why is there a thing called censorship that stop people from hearing everyday talk? We use n***** every day. It’s become part of a conversation. Why aren’t we using it in the show?”
