Taraji P. Henson revealed to Angie Martinez during an interview on Power 105 that she initially auditioned for the role of Olivia Pope on Scandal three years ago. We can’t even picture Taraji in a white hat (maybe leopard), and shudder to think who could play Cookie other than her (sorry Monique but…nah). It does make us consider what it would be like if two of our favorite bad bitches on television ever teamed up on screen. Make it happen Shonda! We know you run the world.
In a funny part of the interview, she also revealed what she has to do to keep Terrence Howard from getting too excited during their sex scenes on the show. THAT shit is funny.
