Convicted singer/actor Jussie Smollett has said he is “not a piece of s – – t” after “gaining clarity” during his recent almost nonexistent prison stretch. However, a lot of viewers of the 2022 BET Awards are not yet ready to forget everything that happened.
On Sunday, Smollett returned to the red carpet at the Los Angeles’ Microsoft Theater hoping no one would mention what a piece of s–t he is after being sentenced to jail but serving only 6 days of his 150-day sentence for 5 convictions on felony disorderly conduct.
He had a lot of gall to show up so soon after his conviction. He appeared supposedly to promote his directorial debut, the BET+ streaming movie “B-Boy Blues” but he announced he has some other plans as well.
“This has always been the plan, to expand my empire, so to speak,” Smollett told the press, according the Daily Mail reported. “To expand the level of what I want to do. I got to direct multiple episodes of the show as well as my music videos. I directed all of them.”
In spite of his epic fall from grace, after he was convicted for paying two men to act like Trump MAGA supporting thugs to attack him with racist and homophobic rants, pour bleach on him, throw a noose around his neck, and shout “This is MAGA country” in the middle of the night in Chicago during a polar vortex, this clown sees himself as a role model for young people.
“But to be able to usher in just a new generation of artists, of actors of this amazing talent that’s out there that has so much to tell you,” Smollett told reporters. “That’s what is feeding me.”
Many people on social media weren’t buying it. Thousands of Twitter users were talking about it, enough to make him a trending fool, responding with everything from shock he would do this to utter indignation.
“Jayda, Ari, Dess, and Lakeyah look a mess everyone on that red carpet looked a mess and why TF is Jussie Smollett there?! Lmao the BET awards makes me cringe”

“Who let Jussie Smollett into the #BETAwards?” another Twitter critic snarled, spawning dozens of retweets and hundreds of likes. This n – – – a faked a hate crime and blamed white people for it, and got a slap on the wrist. If you got money, regardless of race, you have privilege.”
