VIDEO : Jussie Smollett's Arrest Quiets Hollywood

Jussie Smollett was arrested this week in Chicago after police had reason to believe the actor falsified a police report saying he was the victim of a racist and homophobic attack. TheWrap reports Hollywood was quiet regarding the matter on Thursday. Typically outspoken artist-activists like director Ava DuVernay have not yet commented on the subject. The Chicago police chief said on Thursday that Smollett staged the attack because he wanted a higher salary. The 'Empire' star has been charged and arrested, but he claims he is innocence. Following Smollett's arrest, Fox said in a statement, ?We are evaluating the situation and we are considering our options.?
