Kerry Washington is super excited for her ultimate upcoming project – becoming a mom.
According to her co-star Joe Morton, the Scandal star, who recently showed off her baby bump on the Jimmy Kimmel show, has found a way to bond with her baby on set. While attending the 2014 BET Honors, Morton revealed to PEOPLE:
“She spends a lot of time singing to it and talking to it to say we’re just playing pretend and everything’s going to be okay, so don’t worry about it.”
Morton added that Kerry has a nurturing personality and will be a great mom. Obviously!
Meanwhile, over at NBC, Jimmy Fallon saw the highest ratings ever for his Late Night Show. The comedian said his final goodbyes before he takes over Leno’s post on The Tonight Show. Fallon was sent off by celebs like Andy Samberg and the Muppets.
Just the night before, fans said goodbye to Jay Leno as his time as host of The Tonight Show came to an end. Fallon takes Leno’s spot on February 24th.
Over on Broadway, LaTanya Richardson, wife of Samuel Jackson, has replaced Diahann Carroll in the upcoming revival of A Raisin In The Sun.
Carroll was to return to Broadway after being absent for nearly three decades, but the demands of rehearsal proved to be too much for the 78-year-old actress. Richardson has stepped up to play the matriarch of the family, Lena Younger, opposite Academy Award winner Denzel Washington.
