[Recap] Fox’s Empire star Jussie Smollett Meet & Greet at Macys Atlanta Friday 20 November, 2015
Super Empire fans united in Atlanta as one of the stars of the hit series came to Atlanta. Jussie Smollett aka Jamal Lyons, graced Atlanta with his presence for an exclusive meet & greet with his fans and to introduce his ambassadorship with Sean John.
Isn’t he a little cutie! Jussie Smollett, talented actor and singer who is the star of one of the biggest shows on primetime television did his Meet in Greet at Macys Lenox Square Mall in Atlanta,GA. He came in singing and dancing and very humble that the crowd (which was massive) all came by to say hello to him!
Not only did he do a Meet & Greet at Macy’s he wanted to promote his ambassadorship with Sean John clothing line. Now I will be honest, I didn’t know Sean John was still around. It was created by rapper turned mogul Sean (Puffy + P.Diddy) Combs in the 90s, but clearly they are still in effect. I thought it was a great marketing strategy to re-introduce the brand to the masses again with a hot familiar face and Jussie is the perfect model. He is apart of the holiday campaign which is #DreamBig.
Sean John’s #DreamBig campaign chose the Boys and Girls Club to donate $5,000 to the organization of Atlanta and inspire the local children to continue to dream big! A surprise by Jussie Smollett to the children and the crowd as he introduced the check to the organization and decided on the spot to match Sean John and donate his own $5,000 – so in total the Boys in Girls Club of American received $10,000! What a beautiful contribution to the children!
I was actually a blogger social media correspondent for this event and of course I got my own picture for the Meet & Greet. He was dancing when I got to the stage and he gave a genuine hug to me and everyone he met that day! Very excited to meet his cute self and he is very humble and sweet!
The Sean John holiday collection is in Macy’s everywhere across the nation inspiring us all this season to #DreamBig.
Remember you can see Jussie Smollett on Empire comes on every Wednesday on Fox at 9pm #EmpireFox
