In addition to Alfre Woodard’s nomination for Best Supporting Actor in “Steel Magnolias” and Don Cheadle’s Outstanding Lead Actor In A Comedy Series nod for his role in Showtime’s “House of Lies,” Kerry Washington is up for the outstanding lead actress in a drama series for her popular role in ABC’s “Scandal.”
