US actor Jussie Smollett staged a fake attack on himself because he was dissatisfied with his salary.
Chicago Police say Smollett is charged with filing a false police report after he said he was the victim of a homophobic attack.
The 36‑year‑old star of the TV series Empire is suspected of paying two Nigerian brothers to stage the attack.
They are now both co‑operating with the investigation.
