In “Scandal,” the new ABC drama about sex and intrigue in the political world, Kerry’s character, hard-boiled crisis “fixer” Olivia Pope,has had a steamy affair with the president. And Michelle is determined to make sure that fiction doesn’t turn into fact, say sources.
“Kerry loves high powered men and she will flirt with anyone – including the president – and the first lady knows that,” disclosed an insider.

Claims: According to the National Enquirer, Kerry Washington has been banned from the White House by Michelle Obama
“It’s no secret among her staff how Michelle feels. Kerry is NOT to be trusted. “Michelle doesn’t take any chances where her marriage is concerned. If she feels another woman is crossing a boundary, she’s out!” Kerry, 35, shot to the top of 48-year-old Michelle’s “watch list” after the actress was appointed to the President’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities, an honorary post that could bring her into personal contact with the commander-in- chief.
Meanwhile, Kerry has made no secret of her admiration for the president. She once told “The New York Times”: “I want to do whatever I can to make democracy sexy.

Who is Kerry Washington?

Kerry Washington's strong background in theater and academics found the talented and ambitious young starlet, even at the start of her career, setting her sights on producing, screenwriting, and



eventually directing -- a goal that certainly seemed reachable given her early success in such films as Lift and Save the Last Dance. The daughter of a real-estate broker, Washington was born in New York City and attended the Spence School of Manhattan before enrolling in George Washington University's theater program. It wasn't long after her 1998 graduation that the aspiring actress made her feature debut in the 2000 drama Our Song, with nominations for the film at the Independent Spirit Awards and the Sundance Film Festival serving to increase her exposure among cinephiles, even if the film did go largely unseen by the masses. Of course it would take more than a small independent film to truly set Washington apart from the pack, and many saw her performance in the 2001 romantic drama Save the Last Dance as one of the few redeeming qualities in the otherwise forgettable teen drama. Though her only true experience as a thief resulted in the stealing of an apple from a New York deli when directors DeMane Davis and Khari_Streeter encouraged her to engage in a minor bit of thievery in preparation for her role as a shoplifter in the 2001 drama Lift, Washington ultimately proved so convincing and effective in the role that she received a nomination as Best

Female Lead at the 2002 Independent Spirit Awards. Of course the all-too-honest actress would return to the deli to pay for the apple following completion of the film. By this point there was little doubt as to Washington's talent, and despite the fact that she would be overshadowed by such big names as Anthony Hopkins and Meg Ryan in such subsequent efforts as Bad Company, The_Human_Stain, and Against the Ropes, she still managed to make an impression with a series of memorable supporting roles. A substantial role as a lesbian looking to be impregnated by her ex-boyfriend in director Spike Lee’s 2004 comedy drama She_Hate_Me threatened to put an end to the trend of casting Washington almost exclusively in supporting roles; a role as the wife of legendary musician Ray Charles in the same year's Ray truly took her career to the next level. Despite her recent onscreen success, Washington remains true to her stage roots by remaining active in theater and has also begun to branch out by attempting to make a name for herself as a writer and producer as well. Still, it was on the screen that Washington truly earned her keep, and following roles in Sexual Life, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and Fantastic Four, Washington took a trip to the courtroom for a supporting role on David E. Kelley's Emmy-winning television comedy Boston Legal. In 2006 Washington would find herself the recipient of a most unusual houseguest when a diminutive thief appeared on her doorstep disguised as an abandoned toddler in the Wayans brothers comedy Little Man.
