'OITNB' Star Uzo Aduba On Whether Or Not She'll Have A Same-Sex Love Scene

Things heated up for Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren on the third season of " Orange is the New Black," with a new, prospective love interest.

In an interview with HuffPost Live this week, Uzo Aduba remained coy about whether or not we'll see her character in a steamy, same-sex love scene moving forward.

"If I say yes, that reveals a lot," Aduba, who nabbed a 2014 Emmy Award for her portrayal of Suzanne, said. Still, she'd certainly be game if the show's writers opt to add some sizzle to her storyline: "I think it depends on how it's done. I'm always open to the right thing."

In other news, Aduba recently won the role of Glinda in NBC's forthcoming live broadcast of "The Wiz," reportedly beating out Beyoncé for the part. She spoke about the challenge of following in the footsteps of Broadway's original Glinda, Dee Dee Bridgewater, and Lena Horne, who played the role in the 1978 movie adaptation of the musical.
