A Twitter user compared Jussie Smollett's orchestrated attack on himself to Coi Leray's kung fu choreography at Rolling Loud New York.

Former Empire actor Jussie Smollett was found guilty on five of six counts of lying to the police after allegedly orchestrating a hate crime attack on himself and pinning it on the Osundairo brothers, whom he previously knew and had a relationship with. After two years of Jussie Smollett attempting to argue his innocence to the world, he was found guilty and now, he's being clowned all over again with different corners of the internet coming for the actor.

A few weeks ago, New Jersey rapper Coi Leray went viral for her dance choreography at Rolling Loud New York, during which she and her dancers playfully recreated a kung fu fighting scene on stage. The fun moment was a joy for those in the crowd to witness, but the internet joked about the dance moves. The video has resurfaced following Smollett's verdict, with one Twitter user joking that Coi's dance moves were comparable to Jussie's "hate crime" in a Chicago alley.
