So he can put on a BIGGER SHOW ?

There is no getting around the check and the phone calls plus the men are against him

Wasn't him wanting more attention the reason he got in trouble in the first place?

Blame that Democrats for this you are guilty and have to prove your innocence now. Funny they all rushed to convict Brett but now the tables have turned lol

Loser...

Hey look at me I’m an actor! I am special give me some special privilege! So dumb. No one cares. Go to jail.

The actor will act.

Nice way to publicize Black History Month

This guys a liar I don’t care what his opinion is he’s a proven liar! I believe he’s a spoiled and over indulged seems he wanted press so bad he has possibly ruined actual victims from being believed there are real beatings and murders of LGTBQ community its a scary reality!

He's doing what one does when one lies...buying into the lie hook, line, and sinker. You must 'believe' the lie in order to 'sell' the lie. After awhile you convince your own self that your lie is the truth and become indignant when challenged.

Yeah, that’s a good idea.

Flashback of warren publishing her video of NA heritage. Somehow she thought it made her look good. Anyone who writes a check to pay off co-conspirators would think this is a great idea.

The 'Public' is not trying this case. From my understanding, it is this desire to sway the 'Public' that brought about these charges. Beware of what you ask for!

we live in a kaleidoscope world can hear all sorts of things and all kinds of people beyond imagination

Of course they want cameras. Gerragos and Jussie love cameras.

The actors legal team loves to be on tv more than Jussie does.

He will skate. Dindu libs always do.

Sounds like legal team more interested in media sensationalism than prudent, effective legal protection.

Repeating a lie won’t make it go away, nor will it make evidence pop up from thin air...

Hey Jussie, just remember one thing; don’t write a check if you’re gonna commit a crime. 😂

Not narcissistic at all

So JussieSmollett is still after publicity... doesn’t he realise his career is over... fakehate

He wants to have a public audition

I mean - he is an actor. How would we know this wasn't just another character of his.

Evidence of his plea?

Ha! They hope to sell the footage! And maybe get paid!

This guy just does not give up, Jessie, no one is standing with you except your attorneys and when the money runs out they are gone. Admit your mistake like a man and take the punishment so everyone can move on from this tragic tale of yours.

Ha ha ha... he’s just wanting more publicity. 🙄 Hope they bar cameras totally! 😜👍🏻😂

Interesting

People like this should be thrown directly in jail regardless of race or color.

He lying again
