Will Romeo Miller be the latest celebrity to land a spot on Empire? 

Most recently, the former child star and son of hip hop mogul Master P gave the world a glimpse into his life as a cast member on the first season of WEtv’s Growing Up Hip Hop reality show, which premiered in January of 2016. The show follows the offspring of successful hip hip artists as they navigate their way through adulthood, and Romeo gave fans a sneak peak at what’s to come from his storyline in the second season by a sharing few Instagram pics from a pool party at his house earlier this week.

My grandpa Big P is the life of the party and truly a blessing. This man keeps a smile on my face. I can't wait to share him with the world next season on my hit @wetv show! 😂🙌🎥🌎 #guhh

The 26-year-old actor and former USC basketball star later shared that he took a quick break from the pool party midway through after Empire creator Lee Daniels reached out to him about a possible role on the show. He posted a photo of himself studying the script with an accompanying caption including the words, “I will always make time for my craft. The things you don’t see.”

That moment when @theoriginalbigdaddy hit you up to come read for @EmpireFox. Stepped away from the party to go study these lines. I will always make time for my craft. The things you don't see. Thanks for the candid @ajcolores 📷 #blessings #guhh #work #empire

Season 2 of Growing Up Hip Hop is set to premiere in August, with Empire returning for season 3 in September, and from the looks of things, we just might be seeing Romeo on both shows.
