Kerry Washington has admitted that working for top-rated TV series, "Scandal," has been a bit "tough" for her because of her pregnancy.
The 37-year-old Kerry Washington has already given birth to her first child with husband Nnamdi Asomugha, Isabelle Amarachi Asomugha, back in April and, according to her, she has been struggling a bit to cope with the physical changes of her role during the show's 3rd season. Kerry Washington stars as the famous Olivia Pop in the internationally renowned ABC drama.
Kerry Washington, an Emmy-nominee, informed The Hollywood Reporter, "All of last season was a challenge for me on a few levels. For one thing, I was going through this amazing physical transition, this physical journey of having a baby, that my character was not going through. And, I work very physically. What I do is often grounded in the body."
Kerry Washington Scandal actress further added, "That meant I had to figure out how to be this woman while my instrument was changing and evolving every day. It was like seeing the keys on a piano jump around on a daily basis. It was tough for me to even maintain Olivia's walk because of the changes."
Kerry Washington Scandal star went on and said, "The season really broke me. I'm a Type A actor who likes to have it all figured out going in, but suddenly, I had no idea where this woman was going to go next. I had to jump in without everything being perfect."
The amazingly beautiful and talented Kerry Washington Scandal actress also discussed about what she was willing to do to improve, and she said, "I felt like I had been in control playing the character, but it all got taken away from me last season. That meant my acting toolbox had to be upgraded. I had to trade my screwdriver and hammer for a Black and Decker power tool."
