Isaiah Washington: I Just Said I Wasn’t a Punk After Someone Spit in My Face

Posted by Bossip Staff

Isaiah Washington was on Larry King last night and cleared some things up:

Isaiah Washington blamed costar Patrick Dempsey’s repeated tardiness to the Grey’s Anatomy set for the blow-up that resulted in Washington using a homophobic slur.Interviewed on Larry King Live, Washington said he regretted not confronting Dempsey the first time he was late, so he challenged him the second time. But Dempsey wanted to delay the scene more to wait for Grey’s star Ellen Pompeo, who plays Dempsey’s love interest, before shooting began.

“I said I don’t need Ellen, I can act,” Washington told King. “And that was the moment that sent it into a different zone.” According to Washington, Dempey erupted. “He became unhinged, sprayed spittle in my face,” said Washington, in his first television interview about the controversy. “I’m asking him why is he screaming at me. … He just becomes irate.”

That’s when Washington said “a lot of things I’m not really proud of.”

“I said several bad words,” he recalled, quoting himself as telling Dempsey: “There’s no way you’re going to treat me like the B-word, the P-word or the F-word.”

He said that the “F-word” was not meant as an anti-gay slur, but implied “somebody who is being weak.” Continue »

Isaiah Washington: I’m a 6-foot-1, Black Man with Dark skin and Who Doesn’t go around saying ‘Yessah, Massa Sir’

Some recent quotes by Isaiah Washington to Newsweek Magazine:

“Well, it didn’t help me on the set that I was a black man who wasn’t a mush-mouth Negro walking around with his head in his hands all the time. I didn’t speak like I’d just left the plantation and that can be a problem for people sometime,” he says. “I had a person in human resources tell me after this thing played out that ’some people’ were afraid of me around the studio. I asked her why, because I’m a 6-foot-1, black man with dark skin and who doesn’t go around saying ‘Yessah, massa sir’ and ‘No sir, massa’ to everyone? It’s nuts when your presence alone can just scare people, and that made me a prime candidate to take the heat in a dysfunctional family.’’

“My mistake was believing that I would get the support from my network and all of my cast mates across the board. My mistake was believing I could correct a wrong with honesty and sincerity. My mistake was thinking black people get second chances,” he says. “I was wrong on all fronts.” Continue »

Hollyweird Wants Isaiah Back

Posted by Bossip Staff

Hollyweird via NBC wants Isaiah Washington back in the mix:

Recently dismissed “Grey’s Anatomy” co-star Isaiah Washington is in discussions with NBC about a deal, sources said. It was not clear whether NBC is interested in bringing Washington onto an existing series or casting him in a new project. Washington alluded to his conversations with NBC in his first interview after he was fired from “Grey’s” on June 7 because of fallout from the controversy surrounding his reported use of anti-gay slur in a reference to fellow cast member T.R. Knight.

The actor told Entertainment Weekly he and his agent “are sorting through a ton of offers in both film and TV.” “There is one network in particular that’s very interested, but I don’t want to say anything specific until it’s a done deal,” he said. Washington indeed had preliminary conversations with the network Continue »
