VIBE's Dec/Jan cover girl Kerry Washington is a beauty and a beast.
Starring in Quentin Tarantino's upcoming flick "Django Unchained" and ruling prime time as Olivia Pope in ABC's "Scandal," the 35-year-old has cemented her A-list status. From sexy scenes in Common's "I Want You" video to her spread in Details magazine this year, Kerry is bringing sexy back.
While we can list her hottest moments for days, here's 10 to warm you up.

"Last King of Scotland" (2008) When Kerry played Ugandan dictator Idi Armin's (Forest Witaker) third wife, she bared all in the scene with Armin's Scottish doctor (James McAvoy). Cheating on her hubby may have caused her death, but it's a scene that'll give you life.

Details Magazine (2012) The actress showed people quite a few sides of her in her March spread in Details Magazine.

LA Times Magazine (2010) Kerry's LA Times Magazine cover showed that she was a force to be reckoned with. With a futuristic hair-do and bangles, her appearance is timeless.

"Night Catches Us" (2010) In this Sundance Film Festival hit, Kerry brings a heavy performance alongside Antony Mackie, Jamie Hector and Wendell Pierce, who played Bunk on "The Wire." The movie centers around Marcus, a member of The Black Panther movement (Mackie) who returns from jail and deals with his former members who have turned on him. With Kerry as his love interest, it gives a little light to his dark side

"I Think I Love My Life" (2007) Kerry played the tempting mistress Nikki in Chris Rock's romantic comedy "I Think I Love My Wife." In an interview with VH1 about the rom-com, Kerry remembers everyone laughing at her for walking around in her unmentionables for the love scene. "I just remember saying to the crew...it's just a bathing suit! It's just a bathing suit!"

Common "I Want You" (2008) Directing her first music video, Kerry played Common's lost and deranged leading lady, even breaking into his house. She also tries to rekindle the affair by hitting rewind on their old sextapes. Who said crazy can't be sexy?

Maxwell "Bad Habits" (2009) It was only right for Kerry to star in Maxwell's sultry single "Bad Habits." There's something about secret rendezvous that get her going.

"Sexual Life" (2005) Kerry plays one of the emotionless players in this indie film. Shortly after making love to her friend, she returns to her faithful boyfriend. See the NSFW clip here.

Scandal (2012)

Scandal (2012) Olivia and Fitz just can't get enough of each other and we can't turn our eyes away. In the first season of Scandal, we watched the tensions build between the President and his former fixer, but it wasn't until the flashback episode that really put things into perspective for the the scandalous lovers.

"She Hate Me" (2004) In one of her better known roles, the actress plays girlfriend to Dania Ramirez and ex to Anthony Mackie. The Spike Lee joint shows Mackie lose his big corporate job and gains a new one: getting lesbians knocked up. Check out this steamy scene with Ramirez here.
