Description
Hello, I'm using .values() to select distinct values and annotate them with a Count.
Here is the example code:
MyObjects.objects.values('image') QuerySet [ {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'dbd582eb-c8b6-45d8-8787-24fc8467cbce'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'image': u'dbd582eb-c8b6-45d8-8787-24fc8467cbce'}, {'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}]
The documentation says:
...you will only get an annotated result for each unique author name...

Yes, I know, I forgot to place it. But I think it doesn't matter, the values() should return unique values.
Here is the code with annotate.
MyObject.objects.values('image').exclude(terminated_at__isnull=False).annotate(count=Count('id'),) QuerySet [ {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'dbd582eb-c8b6-45d8-8787-24fc8467cbce'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'dbd582eb-c8b6-45d8-8787-24fc8467cbce'}, {'count': 1, 'image': u'40476fd4-ad65-4846-b307-51ddf901da53'}]

If there is something in the documentation in QuerySet.values() documentation that implies it returns distinct values, please let us know. That shouldn't be the case.
As for your issue, please include a complete test case with minimal models and data.
