The 100 Hottest Celebrity Bikini Pics Of 2012

Thte 175 Hottest Bikini Photos Of 2012

Merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, joyful Kwanzaa, and — why not? — happy birthday too, while you’re at it! It’s the holiday seasons, folks; the time of year for giving to our nearest and dearest. And for you, dear readers, we could think of no better gift than 100 of the sexiest bikini photos that this year had to offer! We’ve got some of everybody, and we do mean everybody. There might even been one of you in there. We’ve got that many!

Of course this uber-gallery is presided over by Beyonce, who ruled over our 2012 Bikini Awards just like she does with the rest of the known universe. In fact, she was able to defy time and win the coveted award with pics that were (technically) from 2011. That’s the power of Queen Bey! In addition to her, our list is chock-full of other pop queens like Rihanna, Katy Perry, and Lady Gaga, and big-screen A-listers like Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway and Jessica Alba. TV personalities Maria Menounos and Angela Simmons made a strong showing, too. We’ve also got shots from the usual suspects like reality star Kim Kardashian, never-shy Twitter mama Adrianne Curry and Coco, the Patron Saint of Donks.

Some of our very own VH1 stars like Mob Wives’ Drita D’Avanzo and Basketball Wives’ Evelyn Lozada put in an appearance, as did Hunger Games leading lady (and our personal favorite) Jennifer Lawrence. Professional hotties Kate Upton and Brooklyn Decker look straight out of the pages of Sports Illustrated, while Victoria’s Secret Angels Miranda Kerr, Heidi Klum and Adriana Lima are simply heavenly.

So tear off the wrapping paper and dive in to our terrific 2012 retrospective of everyone’s favorite two-piece. Happy Holidays!

Rihanna And Justin Bieber Perform At The Victoria’s Secret Show, And So Do Dozens And Dozens Of Really Hot Women

Rihanna and Justin Bieber attend Victoria's Secret 2012 show

It was a feast for the senses last night during the Victoria’s Secret 2012 fashion show at New York City’s Lexington Avenue Armory. The event featured musical performances from the likes of Rihanna and Bruno Mars, both of whom made sure your ears were being treated right. Even Justin Bieber was there to provide some live tunes for the bra-clad VS Angels strutting down the catwalk, which was sort of jarring because we still think of him as heaving a bedtime curfew.

Also present were dozens of the most attractive women in the world, seducing your eyes the old fashioned way: With lingerie. Although it should be noted that this was really elaborate lingerie. Doutzen Kroes’s attire boasted a body cage, Miranda Kerr was outfitted with swan wings and Barbara Palvin got decked out with oversized candy canes. Others wore sexified raincoats, poodle poofs and lady bug costumes, which just goes to show that some people have really freaky fantasies. But Alessandra Ambrosio brought the real fantasy as she stepped out in the $2.5 million orchid-themed “floral fantasy bra.” The full show will be seen December 4th on CBS, but take a sneak peek in the gallery below!

Happy 24th Birthday Candice Swanepoel! Celebrate With Her 24 Hottest Bikini Looks

Candice Swanepoel's 24th birthday

We’ve already told you about Alessandra Ambrosio unveiling this year’s $2.5 million Victoria’s Secret fantasy bra earlier this week. But we’re kind of surprised the folks over at VS didn’t give the honor to fellow angel Candice Swanepoel. After all, it’s her birthday today, and it probably would have made one hell of a present! The blue eyed beauty has amazingly never been chosen to show off the multi-million dollar lingerie, but then again she turns just 24-year- old today so she has plenty of time. The lovely South Africa native has already graced the covers of ELLE, Vogue, GQ and Harper’s Bazaar, plus done print ads for mega-brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Nike, Versace, Diesel and Guess. So when you look at it like that, she was probably grateful for the day off! Despite her youth, she’s already an old hand at the modeling game, having gotten her start at just 15. So in honor of her big day, let’s take a look back at her 24 hottest bikini looks of all time. Happy birthday, Candace!

Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Adrianne Curry And More Are Back With The 50 Hottest Twitpics Of September

Summer 2012 may now officially be over (RIP), but twitter is still just has hot as ever thanks to these lovely ladies! Sexy social media savvy stars like Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Lady Gaga and so many more can’t get enough of showing off their hot bods to their adoring followers, and treated us to some sizzling pix this month. Adrianne Curry actually raised money for charity by offering to post scandalous pix, while Kim K just does it because…that’s what she does. Riri and Gaga debuted their new tattoos and Amber Rose debuted her baby bump. Folks like Miley Cyrus, Heidi Klum and Maria Menounos tweeted direct from the red carpet, but Courtney Stodden seemed to tweet mostly from her own bathroom! Sometimes the flashes were totally unintentional. Just ask The Newsroom’s Alison Pill, who “accidentally” sent a topless photo to her fans. At least she handled it like a champ! Fellow TV star Sofia Vergara also sent out a hot oops photo, revealing the extent of her wardrobe malfunction. It’s all there to see in the gallery below!

Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Coco And More Present You With The 40 Hottest Twitpics Of July 2012

The hottest celebrity twitpics of July 2012

The only thing hotter than the weather this sweltering July was our Twitter feed! Celebrities of every stripe were tweeting teasingly scandalous photos that were not always safe for work (unless you work for VH1 Celebrity, in which case, it’s cool). It seemed like there were more super sexy skin-filled Twitpics in July than in the rest of 2012 combined! Maybe it’s global warming?

Selena Gomez modeled a selection from her new bikini style line, while Adrianne Curry modeled her BDSM-inspired Comic-Con outfits. Rihanna tweeted so many sun-drenched photos from her never-ending Mediterranean vacation that we’re starting to imagine that we were there. Some celebs, like Aubrey O’Day, Heidi Klum and, of course, Coco, tweeted up-close and personal pics of their favorite body parts (spoiler alert, it was usually boobs or butts) and reps from the Kardashian Klan went more for the full body shots. The Spears sisters both weighed in with bangin’ bikini shots of their own, and High School Musical soul sisters Ashley Tisdale and Vanessa Hudgens did the same.

We had hot moms like Jada Pinkett-SmithSofia Vergara, Vanessa Minnillo and Jessica Alba. And Kris Humphries’ rumored GF Myla Sinanaj shared a pic to prove she’s gonna be a hot mom in the near future. And of course models like Candice Swanepoel, Bar Refaeli and Tyra Banks turned even the most humble Instagrams into glam shots worthy of GQ and beyond. If you can’t stand the heat, stay out of the gallery below. But if you want the sexiest Twitpics of July 2012, you’re in the right place!
