An Open Letter To Isaiah Washington

Dear Isaiah:

I know the hoopla surrounding you as of late is television related, but a lot of people either forget or don't know that you had a fairly sizable and promising film career at one point, before the whole "f" word debacle . It included some very thoughtful, well-acted performances....you were kinda pre-Don Cheadle before Don Cheadle.

Anyhoo, the whole Larry King promised rampage thing is ill-advised. I read today that NBC is in talks with you for some new projects, but they have somewhat stalled.....it doesn't take a genius to figure out that they are watching what you'll do next, closely.

Listen, in the words of Kimora Lee Simmons from her book "Faboulosity" when there is a scandal, either completely act like it never happened, or, own up to it-then keep it moving and act like it never happened. Say what you will about Kimora, but she always bounces back like a cat. Can you remember even half the scandals she's been associated with? (btw, there are many).

I saw a picture of you yesterday smiling, looking relaxed...keep doing that every day till you get your power deal together. Do it in your sleep. And for God's sake, believe me, we all are tired of hearing about the T.R. thing. I hate to side with one of your heinous former co-stars, but if you don't do anything else for the next 2 weeks JUST BE QUIET!!

I say this with love,

Invisible Woman
