On 19 September 2015, the web site Celebtricity published an article reporting that actor Bryshere Y. Gray, who plays Hakeem Lyon on the show Empire, was the biological son of rap mogul Jay-Z: Celebriticity bills itself as the most notorious entertainment website in the world which uses a combination of real & satire news to create the most shocking headlines. In this case, the real portion of the above-quoted story is that both Jay-Z and Bryshere Y. Gray do in fact exist. The satire (i.e., fake) portion of the article is everything else. There was no DNA test, Jay-Z never said that Hakeem was his real son, and the story about Jay-Z's having a fling with a woman named Donut is apocryphal. Although this rumor was picked up by several other disreputable web sites, news about Jay-Z's alleged son was not reported by any credible news outlet.
