Kerry Washington may not be nominated this year, but she is still taking the stage to present for one of the Best Picture awards at the 2016 Academy Awards. The actress shared that it was a relief to be presenting in her category because she wouldn’t have to open envelopes or risk mispronouncing people’s names.
The 39-year-old smiled to the cameras on the red carpet in a beautiful leather look.
