Sean Penn Suing Empire Creator Lee Daniels!!!

Sean Penn has had enough when it comes to Lee Daniels smearing his name in the public eye, so the iconic actor Sean Penn Suing Empire Creator Lee Daniels.

In case you haven’t heard, Empire creator Lee Daniels has been comparing his lead star Terrence Howard’s domestic abuse history to Sean’s alleged violent partner behavior from way way way back in the day. Like before the Internet and blogs were popping off.

CelebNMusic247.com has this report and Lee should be ashamed of himself, he wasn’t around back then:

News broke today Sean Penn is suing the Empire creator a whopping $10 million for comments he made about him in a Hollywood Reporter interview. Lee compared Empire star Terrence Howard’s domestic abuse history to Sean’s alleged violent partner behavior.

“[Terrence] ain’t done nothing different than Marlon Brando or Sean Penn, and all of a sudden he’s some f*ckin’ demon,” Lee told the magazine. “That’s a sign of the time, of race, of where we are right now in America.”

We’re not certain, but we have an inkling Lee is referencing Sean’s rumored abuse toward former wife and Queen of Pop Madonna in the late ’80s. Sean was never arrested, but the couple did divorce after only four years. Plus, a song on Madonna’s Like a Prayer (1989) LP—”Till Death Do Us Part”—is reportedly about Sean. 

What do you think?

Was Daniels out of line to pull Penn into Howard’s mess?
