Save The Last Dance showed us a budding star Kerry Washington. She’s evolved into the attention- grabbing star of Scandal. Aside from her professional growth Washington has experienced celebratory growth in her personal life. She shares news on both in the new issue of Essence Magazine.
Via Essence Magazine:
“They are allowing an educated, intelligent, powerful, complicated, human, flawed, multidimensional Black woman into their homes. They’re not walking past her on the street, they’re not trying to avoid engaging her, they’re not ignoring her and pretending she’s somebody else’s family and somebody else’s problem…”—Kerry Washington, ESSENCE
Emmy-nominated and newly married, Scandal’s Kerry Washington is having the kind of year even Olivia Pope might envy! In Washington Confidential, ESSENCE writer Denene Millner caught up with Gladiator queen Washington to get her take on the small-screen powerhouse—aka Scandal—that changed the network game. The runaway hit ABC drama, which features the Hollywood beauty as the cunning yet complicated D.C. “fixer,” has a fervent fan base of 8.5 million self-professed Gladiators watching each week—all ready and waiting to untangle the latest web of lies, danger and deceit. Also in Olivia vs. Kerry, ESSENCE explores the differences between Washington and the character she breathes life into each week.
