Whoa! Viola Davis Flaunts Major Cleavage in Plunging Gown

She swears that she's not a "glam woman," but Viola Davis is most definitely a sexy one.

"The Help" actress put her cleavage on display in a bright orange, plunging Herve L. Leroux gown at the NAACP Image Awards in Los Angeles on Friday night. She accessorized the revealing look with a Judith Leiber clutch and Bochic earrings.

"I picked [the dress] because of the color. I didn't realize my ta-tas would be so prevalent," the 46-year-old Oscar nominee told Us Weekly. "I just pushed them up. I felt as long as they weren’t hanging down to my knees, I'm doing pretty good."

Davis recently posed for an edgy photo shoot in the new issue of L.A. Times Magazine, where she showed off her natural hairstyle in several high-fashion looks by Jason Wu, Marchesa and Thierry Mugler.

However, she insists that her off-duty look isn't nearly as impressive.

"My biggest fear is that paparazzi with some like lens is going to come in my backyard and see me when I get in my pool!" she joked to Us. "That would be very unfortunate!"
