To quote Liz Lemon: Oprah is coming! Empire co-creator Lee Daniels has made it no secret he wants Oprah Winfrey for the second season of his wildly successful Fox series. Co-creator Danny Strong told E! News’ Jesse Giddings, “He’s relentless. I’m starting to feel bad for Oprah. I just want to be like, ‘It’s OK, you can say no.'” At Empire’s Television Academy panel Daniels basically confirmed she’s coming. While on the red carpet, Taraji P. Henson said she wants Denzel Washington and Oprah for the new season. But what will Oprah do on the show? That’s still up for debate. The cast, including Jussie Smollett and Bryshere Gray, dished on who they’d want the former daytime host and Oscar nominee to play from Cookie’s mom to a therapist to herself.
