If Beyoncé made a cameo appearance on Scandal, I could see her playing a sly villain—but a duplicitous one who appears sweet but who tries to fool Olivia Pope and actually gets away with her mischief. That episode of Scandal would break the Internet.
If Kerry Washington has her way, that casting will happen sooner rather than later.
Washington told a Sirius XM Town Hall session that she wants Queen Bey on Scandal, Entertainment Weekly reports.
"It would be great to have somebody like Beyoncé on the show, because any time Beyoncé does anything, it makes the world stop, and I would just be happy,” Washington said.
Washington is geeked at the idea that she could get to be in Beyoncé's presence again.
"Any time I get to be in a room with her, I'm like, 'This is great.' "
I don't think Shonda Rhimes would have any qualms about making this happen. Here's to seeing Beyoncé make her debut in #TGIT's lineup.
