It's not really an "elephant" in the room anymore, but let's face facts, single black female Olivia Pope is still running behind the married President on "Scandal." Sure...he's the most powerful man in the world....but Mellie's got him on lock. Or does she?
Now, after four years of those pouty quivering lips and caught-in-a-headlight eyes, it looks like Olivia is finally going to get her man. So how do we feel about it?
Shonda Rhimes is stirring the pot in the new "Scandal" promo. At some point, Olivia (ranting about her uncontrollable emotions) looks at Fitz and says, "You Own Me." PAUSE. We understand Olivia is speaking from an emotional standpoint...but damn Ms. Rhimes. Y'all know those racial undertones are tricky. But to be fair, Fitz does reply, "You Own Me," right back at her.
We can already see this season is going be a hot bed of controversy...and that's how we like it!
SCANDAL will air Thursdays this fall starting Sept 24th.
