Are we really ready for a Baby Boy reunion on Empire? It’s been nearly 15 years since Tyrese and Taraji P. Henson aka Jody and Yvette have been on screen together.
Last season the sexy chocolate Derek Luke aka “Malcolm DeVeaux” had a six episode arch on the series. He exquisitely played Cookie’s bodyguard/love interest and Lucious wasn’t the only person upset about Malcolm crossing the line!

Tyrese took to the ‘gram and got in his feelings, aka “in character” and went on a rant in which he said, “I’m not cool with all these dudes feeling up on Yvette and its on TV? I heard they call her Cookie now? The homies are telling me I gotta get my b**** back…”
It seems as if Jody’s wish will come true. On The Wendy Williams Show the singer and actor confirmed that a reunion will be going down sooner rather than later. The Black Rose crooner reiterated, “Yea me and Taraji, we have to do what we do. I’m coming to get my girl back. All them dudes on there kissing on my girl. I’m kind of done with seeing all that. You know this chocolate is spreading [laughs].”
With Lucious in jail and Malcolm out of town, Cookie is in need of a new #bae. Are you here for Tyrese guest starring on Empire or naw?
