Chris Rock Allegedly Cheated On His Wife With Kerry Washington While Making a Movie About Cheating On His Wife With Kerry Washington
Page 6 - Rumors have swirled since Chris Rock revealed in a comedy routine he cheated on his ex-wife with three different women, including a big star. And sources tell Page Six the famous fling was with “Scandal” star Kerry Washington.
A new Rolling Stone cover story reported Rock saying in a routine, “I was a piece of s–t” in his marriage to ex-wife Malaak Compton-Rock. The mag adds that Rock “segues into his infidelities and gets disarmingly specific, describing three women: one famous, one semi-famous and one a member of the retail class.”
A source told Page Six: “He was cheating on his wife with Kerry when they were filming [‘I Think I Love My Wife’] about him, ironically, having fantasies of cheating on his wife. That went on for a while, for like six months, and she found out. There’s no gray area.”

I’m not even going to count this as cheating. I know he had sex with a woman who isn’t his wife, but I’m not positive this counts as cheating. This is simply life imitating art. This is Chris Rock staying atop the comedy throne. When you think about guys who get into character better than anyone else, you think Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight, you think Daniel Day Lewis in Lincoln/everything he does, and we can add Chris Rock to that list. He fucked Kerry Washington not because he wanted to, but he wanted to but because he was trying to get into the role. What a sacrifice. Full knowing he could get caught but still went for it. That’s commitment to the job not many people have. Did his marriage fall apart? Sure. But “I Think I Love My Wife” didddddd gross…..$13.2 million at the box office, so you know, totally worth it.
