The 44th NAACP Image Awards were held tonight in LA and "Scandal" stars Kerry Washington & Tony Goldwyn joined Halle Berry, Jamie Foxx and Don Cheadle for the glammed up event.  See the pics inside....

The simply stunning Kerry Washington and some of Hollywood's finest actors came out to support the 44th NAACP Image Awards at The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, California.

Her beautiful baby pink and mint green gown was from the Oscar de la Renta 2013 RTW Collection.

During the show, Kerry won the award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture for Django Unchained.

And Kerry also picked up awards for outstanding actress in a drama series for "Scandal," and the much deserved President's Award, which is given in recognition of special achievement and exceptional public service.

The natve New Yorker Kerry brought out her proud parents Valerie Washington and Earl Washington.

"Scandal" creator Shonda Rhimes was all smiles and so proud of her cast.

"Scandal" castmates Jeff Perry, Katie Lowes, Bellamy Young and Tony Goldwyn posed together.  On a SCANDAL sidenote--We no longer trust Cyrus, want Quinn to get kidnapped again if at all possible, have learned a new gangsta "induce labor to keep a man" move form the First Lady, and learned just how much a man hopelessly in love will (stupidly) give up for the woman of his dreams.

"Scandal" star Tony Goldwyn posed with Judy White (the real life Olivia Pope).

"Cloud Atlas" star Halle Berry was among the A-list presenters for the evening.

She rocked a Vivienne Westwood‘s Ball Tie Dress in black voile satin with champagne voile satin beneath her neckline.  And looked effortlessly fab while doing so.

She posed with Gladys Knight.  And during the show, Gladys performed a moving version of "Memories" for all the stars who died in 2012.

And Ms. Berry even took the time to sign a few autographs.  Sweet.

Don Cheadle won the award for Oustanding Actor in a Comedy Series for "House of Lies" as he posed with his long time significant other.

"Django Unchained" star Jamie Foxx closed out the broadcast singing Fred Hammond's "No Weapon" in honor of the film.  And got pretty choked up while accepting his award.

He arrived with his gorgeous daughter Corinne Bishop.

Keke Palmer kept it cute in a dress by Naven, black sandals by Zigi NY, a Judith Leiber clutch, & jewelry by Neil Lane.

Sidney Poitier presented Harry Belafonte the Spingarn Award honoring outstanding achievement by an African American.  And y'al can only guess how Sidney's speech went.  Gotta love him though.

Actress Garcelle Beauvais rocked a strapless hot pink J. Mendel gown that she pulled off nicely,

Actor Dennis Haysbert provided voice overs throughout the show.  With his still sexy self.

Part of Mindless Behavior was there.
