Sexiest Women in Hip Hop: Shakira, Beyonce, Ciara, Pussycat Dolls, Rihanna, Toni Braxton, Mariah Carey

"NEVER EVER"  CIARA Ft. Young Jeezy

Ciara combines a confident attitude with creative sexy dance moves, a body that challenges fitness models, yet unlike some of the other R&B divas, Ciara has a sweet homegirl vibe.   "Never Ever" is a collaboration with Young Jeezy.   Their song has been described as hard enough for guys to feel able to crank it up in their cars, but still a soft R&B love song.   Ciara's primarily in sweatpants and a tank top dancing in the video and it's just as sexy as her big production videos like Love Sexy Magic (with Justin Timberlake).

"BEAUTIFUL LIAR"  SHAKIRA with BEYONCE

Back in the 90's, rock videos would put beautiful women dancing in their videos intermingled with scenes of the ugly guys in the band (see Van Halen's Finish What You Started as an example!)  No worries here, Shakira's Latin hips are shaking, mixed with Beyonce in her tight, low cut dress showing off her moves.  They look so alike in the video, you're not sure who you're looking at 100% of the time.  The highlight is the video is when they come together, first on the floor, then segued to a Middle Eastern dance beat and belly dancer moves choreographed to the hot beat.   One of the sexiest dance videos of all-time!   Fun Fact: there was a Spanish version of this song called Bello Embustero.  

"STICKWITU"   PUSSYCAT DOLLS

Nicole Scherzinger, formerly of the Pussycat Dolls, is near the top of my list of the sexiest women in hip hop.   Nicole has gone solo and during the 2012 Super Bowl, a Go Daddy ad hinted at a new lineup for the band.  But what an incredible impact the PCD made in their short seven year career.  The Pussycat Dolls had multiple Top Ten hits including Don't Cha (Wish Your Girlfriend Was Hot Like Me), Buttons, and When I Grow Up.   Their ballad, Stickwitu, showed a softer version of the band, laid back, the natural side of the girls, love it!   I first saw Nicole with another all-girl group, the reality show created Eden's Crush (IMO the sexiest group of all time!).  Even back then you could see Nicole had superstar potential.

"THE ROOF"   MARIAH CAREY

A lot of Mariah haters out there!   "She's fat, she's a diva, her high pitched voice is irritating......"    Yet, you ask guys and see polls like Maxim's Top 100 Sexiest Women and Mariah's amazing smile and curvaceous figure was usually on the list back in the day.   She's recently had a baby and has seen her weight fluctuate over the years, but she's bounced back better than ever.   Check out the CD COVER of her new single, Triumphant,  set to release next month, smoking hot!    "The Roof" is Mariah at her best, taken from the 1999 Butterfly CD.
