Worldwide Wednesday: The 10 Hottest New Orleans Women
So what's a one-man team to do when its superstar player wants out? Not pull a Cleveland Cavaliers fuck-up, first of all. Second, offer some damn incentives. With their star point guard Chris Paul first demanding a trade and then making nice for the cameras, the New Orleans Hornets are looking for any reason to entice their franchise player to stay in the Big Easy. Which, who are we kidding, just ain't gonna happen. (What are they gonna say, "But Chris, we'll re-sign Darius Songalia!"). But maybe CP3 would reconsider runnin' point elsewhere if he knew what else he was leaving behind: a full roster of certified sexy chicks. That's right, the Hornets may be Paul and a bunch of stiffs, but the native ladies of New Orleans are an All-Star squad. We've got the ten best reasons for CP3 to stay in the Big Easy.
#10. Shae Marks
Claim to fame: Model Shae Marks was discovered in the most promising and legitimate of places: the gym. Yes, some dude approached Marks while she was all hot and sweaty and offered her an audition with Playboy. Normally, we'd expect girls to walk away after giving a slap in the face, but lucky for us this "scout" was legitimate. The spread Marks was in resulted in her getting Playmate of the Month honors in May of 1994.
#9. Memphis Monroe
Claim to fame: OK, so the alliterative (and obviously fake) name is probably a dead giveaway that she's a porn star. Once puberty kicked in at the age of 16, Memphis took a job at Hooters and even posed for their company calendar (which we'd rather not question the legality of). Once she turned 18, she began filming sexy scenes in the nude. Apparently, she got so good at it that she won the 2009 AVN award for Best All-Girl Group Sex Scene in Cheerleaders, a title that has no real Oscar equivalent but still deserves your respect, damn it.
#8. Chloe Bridges
Claim to fame: The 18-year-old Camp Rock 2 star is as pretty, sweet, and innocent as Disney stars come these days. Anyway, that's all we can say. If we articulate our actual thoughts, we'll start to feel like we're creepin' on our little sister's (legal) best friend. Call us when you're 20 or beginning your Britney Spears (circa 2007) phase, Chloe.
#7. Taryn Terrell
Claim to fame: She can drop-kick us, clothesline us and probably even choke-slam us. And no, we don't mean in the S&M kind of way. The WWE Diva, known as "Tiffany," may be a scary-ass beast in the ring, but her au naturel images in the February/March 2010 Lingerie Special Edition issue of Playboy (Google them shits) quell our fears of her...sort of.
#6. Breann McGregor
Claim to fame: Not being in Playboy, that's for sure! She's actually a modest soccer mother of three from suburbia. Her favorite hobbies include playing racquetball at the country club and attending weekly book-club brunches with the girls. Believe us? No shit you don't believe us. No matter what we tell you about the former Cyber Girl of the Year, you already know that body's been seen in all its glory somewhere glossy.
#5. Stephanie Swift
Claim to fame: You guessed it: Porn. Unfortunately, last year, the AVN and XRCO Hall of Fame inductee was diagnosed with breast cancer, which she's still battling today. In order to raise money for her treatment, fellow actresses have held a number benefits and fund-raisers in her name. This September, 2010 Hall of Famer Jessica Drake is participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer on her behalf. We're definitely pullin' for you, Steph.
#4. Dawn Richard
Claim to fame: As one of the sexy links of Danity Kane, we enjoyed essentially stalking her life on Making the Band season after season. Like all other manufactured bands, that one's kaput too. Yet unlike former bandmate Aubrey O'Day, she didn't follow the "When all else fails, film a solo reality show" mantra. Nowadays, you can catch her rockin' a track on Drake's debut album and reppin' Diddy's Dirty Money set. Maybe other reality show starlets can take some notes on staying power.
#3. Tia Texada
Claim to fame: Every roster needs a veteran to max the cap. Off the bench: Tia Texada. The 38-year-old actress is most recognized for her heat-packing role in Third Watch and she's NOT in the adult entertainment industry. Dangerous sexiness, check. Relief, check.
#2. Reese Witherspoon
Claim to fame: Welp, sure
#1. Rocsi
Claim to fame: Seriously, she's basically the only good thing BET has now. What, you watch 106 & Park for Terrance, fam?
