Celeb Poll – Hottest Bikini Body!

imageIt’s summer! Swimsuit season is officially here and we’re not the only ones that have been working out and toning up in preparation!


Celebs know that they’re being photographed constantly so it’s no wonder that they need to be in tip-top shop before donning skimpy two-pieces and strutting their stuff down the beach! We’ve got a round-up of some hot bikini babes and while all the ladies look fantastic and have enviable abs, we’re asking the important question – Which smokin’ star has got the best bikini bod?


Israeli beauty, Bar Rafaeli, looked natural and at ease in a black and floral set, plus too-cool-for-school aviators.


Reality darling, Audrina Patridge lounged poolside in Vegas in strappy black bikini bottoms and a mutli-jewel toned top. A nice golden tan compliments her look!


Hot mama, Gwen Stefani, was looking like she needed a little sun, but was still super cute and toned in her itsy-bitsy, teeny weeny, black and white polka-dot bikini!


Slender songstress, Kelly Rowland, frolicked in the waves in a royal purple bandeau top with matching bottoms … and her Blackberry!


So who gets your vote? Let us know by taking the poll below, then check back next week to see our fave bikini picks!
