Jussie Smollett Donates To Flint!

Jussie gives Flint a little hope.
Even though his career has pretty much dried up after his infamous staged attack in Chicago, Jussie Smollett is still honoring his court order to pledge to community service.

Smollett, 38 made a surprised visit on Sunday, with several stunned parents.

The disgraced entertainer went to Flint, Michigan to give out coats, toys and backpacks to children.

In recent years, thousands of children in the city were exposed to the dangerously high levels of lead in their drinking water. There is still a public health crisis in the region.

Smollett was fired from Empire after revelations about him staging a racial attack in Chicago in January. The Chicago Police determined he hired two of his personal trainers to stage an attack to help jumpstart his career. Smollett was concerned that he was being reduced in the hit drama.

Due to the antics, Smollett's role was reduced, the show's ratings sunk and Fox decided to sever ties with Lee Daniels by cancelling Star leaving it in a cliffhanger and Empire to finish its final season.

The state prosecutor Kim Foxx facing scrutiny over her role in the matter. The charges that Smollett faced were later dropped. He pled guilty to the criminal act of falsifying statements and inducing panic. He was ordered to pay $130,000 for the time rendered in the investigation. Smollett denies staging an attack and countersued the city.

Smollett was charged with 16 felony charges of lying to police but the prosecutor dropped the charges.

In exchange, Smollett did community service and paid 10,000.

Former mayor Rahm Emmanuel and former top cop Eddie Johnson slammed Smollett and Foxx for the charges being dropped. According to the junk food media, Foxx had been in contact with members of Smollett's family.

She recused herself from the investigation shortly after.

Daniels did hint that Smollett will have a part in the final season of the show. However, the haven't promised he'll return to main character as the final season of Empire wraps up.
