Jussie Smollett
Undercover in Chicago …
Grabs Dinner with Fam
3/1/2019 1:00 PM PST
Jussie Smollett‘s taking extreme measures to avoid being seen, but everybody’s gotta eat … so we caught a glimpse of him walking into a Chicago restaurant.
We’re told Jussie arrived at Eddie V’s Prime Seafood Thursday night around 9:30 in a black SUV — very similar to the one he took from jail last week, along with some of his siblings and security.
The “Empire” star kept his head down under the hood of a large winter coat as he hustled in, and stayed about an hour.
Our sources say Jussie’s been hounded by media and hasn’t been able to stay at his own apartment since the mob scene last week when he was released, so he’s been hunkering down at a swanky hotel.
Clearly, he’s trying his best to keep a low profile.
As we reported … Jussie’s been charged with disorderly conduct for filing a false police report in what Chicago PD’s Superintendent called a “publicity stunt.”
Smollett maintains he was attacked and denies orchestrating a hoax.
