On the second episode in the first season of "Empire," the character Rhonda Lyon donned a "blow-job bib" before intercourse with her husband, Andre Lyon.
With the last "Empire" episode of airing Wednesday night, it's time to return to this early moment and finally learn what happened behind-the-scenes. Actress Kaitlin Doubleday, who plays Rhonda, told The Huffington Post the story of how the moment came together on set, beginning by saying, "I had met with the writers room and we were talking about character and storylines.
Lee was just giddy because he was like, 'We wrote something crazy for you today. Doubleday was intrigued, but ended up forgetting about Daniels' statement until she showed up to shoot the episode and he told her, "I can't believe that Fox is letting us do it, but they are and you're going to wear a blow-job bib today. Part of the scene actually did get scaled back after filming, as the Lyons' cleaning lady was supposed to be prominently in the background of the shot instead of being there for a glimpse.
