Taraji P Henson, known for her feisty role as Cookie Lyon in the drama series Empire on FOX (DStv 125 / StarSat 131) is flying down to South Africa in June, at least that’s what reports indicate.
Cookie is set to visit Johannesburg to engage with her beloved fans while on the other hand, MultiChoice has announced that it will open FOX channel’s doors to all its DStv Compact subscribers permanently from Wednesday 1 June 2016.
The addition of FOX to DStv Compact is aimed at driving traffic for the channel from the FOX Networks Group that caters for channels like National Geographic, FX, Fox Crime to generate revenue for TV operators across Africa.
"We are exceptionally thrilled at the opportunity to bring our content to even wider audiences in Africa so they get to experience the best content that is available on FOX, within hours of the American broadcasts," says Khosi Khanyile, Fox Africa’s head of marketing.
"Fans of Empire are definitely in for a treat – Taraji P Henson has been a fan favourite with South African audiences from the first season."
Well, we can’t wait to see you land in Mzansi Cookie, this definitely calls for a celebration!
