Who Said Kerry Washington Is Gay?

“It’s interesting how much people long to fill in the gaps when someone in the public eye doesn't share their personal life,” she told the magazine. “I like how people will post pictures of me with other women that I adore, hugging on red carpets, and say, ‘See?’” she continued. “Are we so uncomfortable with love between two people of the same gender that we immediately label it as sexual?”

The new bride and soon-to-be first-time mom, who is reportedly about four months into her pregnancy, has taken on the role of a lesbian in a few films like Spike Lee’s “She Hate Me” and as a transgender in “Life is Hot in Cracktown.” In order to prepare for the roles, she spent time in lesbian clubs.
