Sophia Bush is living the dream.

No, not just because she's been a working actor in Hollywood for over two decades, but because that career boasts some of the most iconic on-screen lesbian kisses of all time, and only continues to grow.

Well before Bush, 42, was out as queer, and locking lips with soccer star Ashlyn Harris (don't worry, we'll get there) there were definitely signs. Making a living out of making out with other women is certainly not sapphic proof positive, but it can be a sign that someone might actually be queer — shocking, I know.

Well, Ms. Bush is at it again, recently broking the internet with ANOTHER jaw-dropping kiss on last week's episode of Grey's Anatomy. So, what better time to revisit her Sapphic kissing greatest hits?

Say what you will about Ryan Murphy, but he's done a lot for the lesbian cheerleader community over the years. Ridley (Sophia Bush) and Vanessa (Kate Mara) from Nip/Tuck walked so Brittney and Santana from Glee could run.

The scene in the high school comedy classic John Tucker Must Die where Sophia Bush give Brittany Snow a kissing lesson altered my brain chemistry forever. If we don't get more of this in the upcoming sequel I will riot in the streets, and I don't think I'm the only one.

Netflix's Chicago-based romp Easy may have been short-lived with only 25 episodes over the series' 3 seasons, but there were some real gems hidden in there. Key among them, was when Sophia Bush guest starred for an episode and gave us this steamy make-out scene with Jacqueline Toboni (who you may recognize from The L Word: Generation Q) during the show's final season.

As we mentioned, Sophia Bush guest starred in last week's episode of Grey's Anatomy and ended up kissing Dr. Teddy Altman (Kim Raver) square on the lips over dinner. Bush's character, Dr. Cass Beckham confides in Teddy that when she and her husband were going through a rough patch, they opened their marriage. Will Teddy and her husband, Dr. Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd) open up their marriage? If it means Dr. Beckham will be around, I sure hope so!

Off screen, Bush can often be found still kissing a woman —namely her girlfriend, soccer star Ashlyn Harris (scroll through the carousel above for some lip locking examples!). Bush came out earlier this year, an experience she told Glamour made her "feel like I can finally breathe."

In Harris's touching birthday tribute to Bush on Instagram, Bush replied with this sincere comment that read, "Last year I got free. This year I found the very best love in the very most unexpected place. I may never get over the gift of it. Thank you for putting me back together. For making my second birthday even better than my first. And for reminding me what the sound of my unbridled laughter sounds like. You are magic. You are my best present. ✨"

We love to see it — literally!
