WATCH: Regina King hits up The Wendy Williams Show to talk ‘Scandal’ and being the break-out star of ABC’s ‘American Crime’

The throwback kid in me can’t help but to see “I’easha” from Poetic Justice every time I get a glimpse of actress Regina King, but even though she has been one the super talents in Black Hollywood that have been kinda slept-on over the years that’s all finally beginning to change for King now that she’s getting her due shine starring as the face of ABC’s new hit drama series ‘American Crime.

With Black women now being the new “It girls” of mainstream prime time television it’s only right that I tip my snapback to these ladies that we’ve watched grow on-screen for years a pat on the back for breaking barriers and opening up new doors for the younger generation of talent following in their footsteps. Watch as Regina King chops it up about her new role on ‘American Crime’ and more on the Wendy Williams Show..
