Since 2015, Taraji P. Henson has literally acted her butt off, starting with her showing her booty on “Empire.” Long before “Empire,” Taraji was a major star in the industry. But, the platform “Empire” provides is showing the world how great she is.

A breakout 2015 wasn’t enough for Taraji P. Henson, as she kept it going strong in 2016. Last year, during award season, the #OscarsSoWhite trend began. In large part, this was due to Taraji being snubbed for Outstanding Actress.

Coming off another powerhouse “Empire” performance, Taraji is now facing the same fate. Fans are highly upset, especially after Hidden Figures and the critical acclaim it received. The fans are not taking this one lightly and have her trending on social media.
