Bellamy Young: What I Wore When I Auditioned for ‘Scandal’

On Scandal, actor Bellamy Young's character, Mellie Grant, went from scorned first lady to president of the United States and—as you'll learn in her delightful episode of What I Wore When—she might have a pair of Zara pants and Nordstrom pearls to thank. Young explains the very deliberate outfit she put together to audition for the beloved ABC show in a now infamous role she admits changed the course of her life. Also discussed: the time Perrie saw Bellamy on Broadway playing a prostitute in a little-known 1997 musical called The Life; her past life emceeing child beauty pageants and holding temp jobs on Wall Street; and why this southern girl's last meal on earth would definitely include bourbon.   Follow @bellamyyoung on Instagram and @BellamyYoung on Twitter.
