And quicker than you can say Lucious doesn't have ALS, the worlds of Empire and Sesame Street collided.

Taraji P. Henson, who plays homicidal matriarch Cookie Lyon on the smash Fox series, hosted Saturday Night Live.

Some sketches were meh.

But this one, where the fur-wearing Cookie ventured onto Sesame Street and schooled Mr. Snuffleupagus, was priceless: “You need to stop rappin’ like you from the streets, ’cause you not about that life!”

When Ernie wants to swap an apple with Bert, Cookie sashays on by: "He's trying to play you!"

And no, baby, "Cookie don't share."
