No but when the show was good.. u have to be honest and know that the awards were in favor of whites.. much more than when the actresses came after her
But no seriously, when the show was good for the first three seasons, it was amazing, and so was she :gorlonfire:

Monica is ugly
Ch!
HTGAWM >
QUEEN paved the way tbh. :stressed:
Yea, Kerry really set things in motion. An ATTRACTIVE, feminine, black woman running shit. How to get away with being ugly didn't really measure up
Kerry ain't cute
Absolutely
The fact that Kerry Washington didn't even have enough money to purchase her suit for the Scandal audition is just ridiculous :dead: she had done so much work by then, specifically in film.
She deserves a few Emmy's

she broke down her career in a vanity fair interview and spilled a bit of tea. I think this was when she was promoting American son and eventually little fires everywhere:

Maybe the last 6-7 minutes of this video
Wow
Damn that's crazy. Alot of these entertainers only have there name and fame. :dead:
Watching this, Kerry is really one of our ELITE black actresses

Now i wanna go back and give Scandal a real shot. Especially the first 3 seasons, but i still can't get over Columbus Short fucking up such a great role for himself.
What an idiot

It's pretty insane. All the money Kerry Washington has helped make for these studios and she couldn't scrounge up enough coin for an expensive suit? Obviously she's well paid now but that's a MESS

I was gonna say she was getting like a million per episode for Little fires, but the got damn JOURNEY they have to endure especially the black ones.
Shout out to the ones who are able to get the bags early, and that's due to who behind you and their moral compass.
I love everything about this woman
she's so poised, beautiful and talented.
Royalty!
Leave Taraji out of y'all mess. She already had a lead role mess on person of interest before scandal came around.

OMG
I LOVED this.
She was not the lead of that show
I watched that show
she was a supporting character stop this
Baph never saw a damn episode nxjsjsksksk
I watched person of interest and taraji was the lead but the show wasn't on her shoulders, which is why when she died the show went on for seasons without her :dead:
It's not the same. If Olivia died or Annaliese died, the show is over
Person of interest 2011
Scandal 2012
Taraji was already in the building.
give Kerry her flowers bby. she deserved it. And Olivia Pope is an iconic trailblazer :gorlonfire:
I knew there was a shift when they gave Meagan Good the lead role in a primetime mess (Deception)

wow a show that lasted longer than Hawthorne :ohwow: :ohwow: :ohwow:
The NY Times was gagging:
Quotediscuss — is its success among African-American audiences. According to Nielsen "Scandal" is the highest rated scripted drama among African-Americans, with 10.1 percent of black households, or an average of 1.8 million viewers, tuning in during the first half of the season.
One reason for that success is the casting of Kerry Washington, who became the first African-American female lead in a network drama in almost 40 years. (The first was Teresa Graves as an undercover cop in "Get Christie Love!", which had its debut in 1974.)
Wow WOW WOW
