Actress Kerry Washington Flaunts Hot Body In One-Piece Swimsuit For Vanity Fair Magazine

The Scandal Actress looks stunning as usual as she covers the August edition of U.S. Vanity Fair magazine. She also talked a bit about her role on Scandal and how white women really want her role, see excerpt below;

'One of the most profound things for me about the show is the number of white women of all ages who come up to me and say: "I want to be Olivia Pope". It's especially profound in a place like South Africa. It's called The Fixer over there and it's just started its second season. 

The fact that white women can see this woman of colour as an aspirational character is revolutionary, I think, in the medium of television. I don't think white women would feel that  way about Olivia if her identify as a woman, period, wasn't first in their minds.'

Do You Think Gabrielle Union Would Have Played The Role Of Olivia Pope In Scandal Better Than Kerry Washington?

Wondering why I'm asking? Well I just found out actress, Gabrielle Union was close to landing the role of Olivia Pope in the hit series, “Scandal” but lost it to Kerry Washington who by the way in my opinion is nailing that character big time.

In an interview with The Associated Press, Union revealed that she lost the lead role on ABC's Scandal to Kerry Washington but got her own show “Being Mary Jane” which according to her is better than Scandal;

"I said to myself, Oh my God, these roles are out there. It showed me that you don't have to settle. Luckily, the success of her and the show bred more work. Just from the audition process, I knew that I couldn't go backward. 

I didn't get Scandal, but I got something better which is my own show, it's all about building a legacy. This new opportunity is something I feel that can grow."

Eerrm, I don't know if anyone can play that role better than Washington and well till I see that her new series, Scandal is still on the top for me. What do you think?
