Here's your chance to sing on Empire
Do you have a voice that could make Lucious Lyon and Cookie pay attention? If so, Fox wants you to audition for its 'Next Empire Artist' competition.
Starting next Thursday in Los Angeles, a tricked-out gold bus will be heading to 15 cities across the United States, giving fans the opportunity to record their favorite Empire songs from a mobile recording studio. Singers looking for their big break can also record an a cappella version to submit to the contest, Variety reports. The winner will appear as the guest artist on an episode to air this fall. If you can't sing but still want to get the Empire experience, the bus will also feature a photo experience where fans stand in for Lucious Lyon, and cookies made by Cookie.
