Why Kerry Washington 'Scandal' Co-Stars Were ‘Pissed’ at Her for Years

Kerry Washington explained how her former "Scandal" co-stars Tony Goldwyn and Scott Foley were "pissed" at her for years after she told Ellen that she not only couldn't choose the better kisser, but that she didn't like kissing either of them at all. The actress also explained how her "Scandal" character Olivia Pope inspired her to move more into activism, how her dad deserves an award for his background acting, and her son's new pet.

Scandal was one of the top tier series. From casting to the storyline.

[@mariahyohannes]

The shows writing went downhill after season 2. To much b613, dragged out Olivia and fitz love story aka lust story and all of it became very predictable.

[@marykay7878]

@@mariahyohannes i agree, i loved the cases OPA would solve, but i could have done without the whole b613 storyline. it made no sense at all. but the day to day cases were great, and the love story of olitz was perfection.

[@sophiamichael2788]

I'm not a Scandal the series fan, I've only just scene clips on KZbin of her with the two men (scenes and interviews). OBVIOUSLY her connection with Tony/Fitz blows the other connection out of the water. It has nothing to do with the other actor Scott, it's the visceral chemistry between her and Tony. Screams lifetimes to me.

[@beverlycarter5382]

I believe Kerry liked kissing Tony Goldwyn but out of respect for his wife and Scott's wife too, she never answered the question for which I applaud her; and if you notice she has been doing things with Tony Goldwyn since the show left the air, appearing with him as presenters on awards shows, interviewing him on her youtube show, The street where you grew up, haven't see her with Scott Foley and that says alot.

[@humanity9158]

In my opinion and observation...I feel that Tony Goldwyn really adores Kerry....they make true friends in real life.

[@meek2312]
