Sara Ramirez and Ellen Pompeo take on Orange is the New Black

Written by . Published: September 19 2014

Actress Sara Ramirez and her Grey'S Anatomy co-star Ellen Pompeo showed their love for Orange Is The New Black by spoofing the show on the set of their medical drama.


The actresses paid homage to the popular Netflix prison comedy by replacing the iconic orange jail jumpsuits with Grey's signature blue scrubs.


In a photo posted on Twitter.com by Pompeo on Wednesday (17Sep14), Ramirez imitates Laura Prepon's Alex Vause with the same hair, black-rimmed glasses, red lipstick and faux arm tattoo, while Pompeo made her long blonde locks into cornrows to channel inmate Tricia.


The stars were surrounded by members of the Grey's crew, who also portrayed other Orange is the New Black characters such as Crazy Eyes and Big Boo.


Pompeo added the caption, "Blue is the new black."
