With a new record deal under her belt and dozens of television and movie credits to her name, we’d reason that it’s safe to say Real Housewives of Atlanta star Demetria McKinney has successfully transitioned from actress to music star. Though we’re betting an album is in her immediate future, that doesn’t mean Demetria is going to forget about her acting roots.
When the 35-year-old Meet the Browns star stopped by the Wetpaint offices earlier this week we were curious to know her thoughts on Empire, the hip-hop drama that’s taken the world by storm. Turns out that Demetria was a bit late to the Empire party because Terrence Howard’s ascot and pompadour ensemble was a bit much for her at first. But now she’s started watching it and can’t get enough of the FOX hit.
“After hearing so many people talk about it and hearing how Cookie [Lyon] was killing it — Taraji [P. Henson] is just amazing in it — I’m starting to watch it now,” she explains. Given that the show has had a myriad of great musically-inclined guest stars — Courtney Love, Jennifer Hudson, and Snoop Dogg come to mind — it seems like a perfect fit for Demetria.
So would she ever consider guest starring on Empire if asked? You bet! “Guest star, star on, be in, all of the above,” she gushes. “I love how they’ve made a strong combination of the acting and the music.”
Like we said, in our minds Demetria is a perfect fit for Empire, but what do you think? Vote below!
