As I have made abundantly clear, I loooooooove Fox's hiphop soap Empire, and I especially loooooooove Empire's Taraji P. Henson who deserves a goddamn Emmy—in fact, all the goddamn Emmys ever—for her portrayal of badass matriarch, Cookie. She's a brilliant, funny actress and gives me whoopsy-daisy feelings inside my trousers. And here she is doing some promos for her upcoming Saturday Night Live hosting gig with cast member Taran Killam, in which, among other things, she debuts her new drama "Umpire." Oh, and she also slaps the ever-loving shit out of Taran, which is worth the price of admission alone.
