Actor Demi Moore says she and  Rumer Willis had a great time living together while shooting  for "Empire".
The 54-year-old star moved in with her daughter when she  landed a recurring role as a therapist on the musical TV drama  - on which Rumer, 29, plays singer/songwriter Tory Ash,  reported Entertainment Tonight.
The mother-daughter duo loved hanging out in Chicago  after filming as they do not get to see each other often in  Los Angeles.
"I mean, we're there and since she's a regular, and I'm  just a guest. I'm in the guest bedroom of her apartment -- she  gets the king size bed.
"I love it, we have a great time. Honestly, even though  we pretty much live, I would say, 10 maybe 15 minutes away  from each other in LA, with your schedules, you sometimes  don't end up getting to spend the quality time with each  other. And so, being able to have time to go out and eat and  really spend time with each other has been really amazing,"  Moore says.

Clooney, who had organised a fundraiser for Clinton  during the 2016 elections, said while she was "incredibly  qualified for the job", her speeches did not click the way  they should have with the voters.
"Hillary, for years and years and years, has been the  presumptive nominee, and quite honestly, she was incredibly  qualified for the job," Clooney told The Daily Beast.
"But being qualified for the job does not necessarily  mean you're the right person to be president. Here's what I  mean.

When she got up and gave a speech,  it didn't soar.
"Now, that doesn't mean that she wouldn't have done a  great job as president, and I supported her ...

Media mogul Oprah Winfrey's  first segment as a "60 Minutes" correspondent saw a heated  debate on US President Donald Trump.

Winfrey also raised the investigation into Russian  collusion in the election. Another member, Paul, said he is  tired of hearing about the issue, while another named Tim  argued that it was a "foreign attack on our country."
