The viewers of Empire season 4 can also look forward to a special performance by Cookie in episode 4. According to cast member Taraji P Henson, her character might come up with a new song to remind about his luscious abilities.
"She might, I don't know. They've tried, but I just see how much work the boys have to do when they perform. They're young, and that's what they do. I like to perform, but my thing is more theatre. It's not the same. If I was playing a character who was a singer and would go out and command the stage, that could be fun," the actress told Variety.
