<p>We first saw these pop music BFFs work together when they dropped a <a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/11/17/wake-n-watch-beyonce-f-lady-gaga-video-phone-music-video/">video</a> for another song about phones, four months ago. It was dope, but after last night&#8217;s premiere of <strong>Lady Gaga</strong> and <strong>Beyonce</strong>&#8217;s 10-minute long video for <strong>&#8220;Telephone&#8221;</strong>, it&#8217;s clear that what we saw before was just a warm-up. </p>
<p>The lady superstars upped the ante in every way imaginable for their latest clip. There&#8217;s been some criticism over its messy plot line and excessive product placement, but we&#8217;re not mad at two chicks at the top of their game going a little over-the-top, even if it doesn&#8217;t make sense. Watch the duo&#8217;s Tarantino-inspired mini-movie above.</p>

Every week in the <strong>Girl Celeb Power Rankings,</strong> we scour the <del datetime="2010-02-04T21:25:11+00:00">news</del> blogs to give you the good, the really good, and the really hot in the world of famous women: things like who&#8217;s smashing who, who&#8217;s picked up a felony DUI, who&#8217;s dating a drugged-out rock star, and who&#8217;s the got the hottest candid photos for the week that was. </p>
<p>This week a <em><strong>Precious</strong></em> actress shuts up critics with a new role, another <em><strong>90210</strong></em> actress turns activist, and the hottest female artists in the game are set to make music history. Check back every Thursday for a new rundown, and of course, don&#8217;t hesitate to let us know what you think&#8230;</p>

We completely believe in actions speaking louder than words, which is why we&#8217;d be willing to show our appreciation with for the girl with a nice rub down after such a long run.<br />

Rather, Latifah co-stars with Common in a different romantic comedy, this time about a successful physical therapist who falls in love with the NBA athlete she is working with. The only problem is—and this one&#8217;s a shocker—a hot chick (Paula Patton) with a &#8220;Fuck bitches, get money&#8221; attitude tries to score him first.<br />

In Complex’s new <strong>Celeb Girl Power Rankings,</strong> we scour the <del datetime="2010-02-04T21:25:11+00:00">news</del> blogs to give you the good, the really good,  and the really hot in the world of famous women: things like who&#8217;s smashing who, who&#8217;s picked up a felony DUI, who&#8217;s dating a drugged-out rock star, and who&#8217;s the got the hottest candid photos for the week that was. This week we&#8217;ve potentially avoided an MTV reality show train wreck, we&#8217;ve got the hottest swimsuit model of 2010, and not one, but two girls goin&#8217; under the knife (again). Check back every Thursday for a new rundown, and of course, don&#8217;t hesitate to let us know what you think&#8230;</p>

Given that we haven&#8217;t been able to put the issue down, it&#8217;s safe to say she deserves the top spot this week.

In Complex’s new <strong>Celeb Girl Power Rankings,</strong> we scour the <del datetime="2010-02-04T21:25:11+00:00">news</del> blogs to give you the good, the bad, the really bad, and the really hot in the world of famous women: Who&#8217;s got a sex tape, who&#8217;s picked up a felony DUI, who&#8217;s dating a drugged-out rock star, and who&#8217;s the got the hottest candid photos for the week that was. This week we&#8217;ve got a fashion line debut fail, a demure <em>Mad Men</em> actress showing off her frisky side, and the hottest WAG in Super Bowl history. Check back every Thursday for a new rundown, and of course, don&#8217;t hesitate to let us know what you think.</p>

When Biggie talked about moving that white, we&#8217;re pretty sure he wasn&#8217;t trying to refer to his Junior Mafia homie.<br />

Reportedly, of those 20 who paid the $25 to watch the train-wreck, none wanted to pay the extra 20k to 50k to kick it with her after. With 50k, we&#8217;d just hook up the <a href="http://lgo.mit.edu/blog/drewhill/files/flux-capacitor-real.jpg" target="_blank">flux capacitor,</a> go back in time 15 years and hang with <em>that</em> Pam Anderson.</BLOCKQUOTE><br />

• Yesterday, <em>The Hills&#8217;</em> pioneer signed copies of her new book <em>Sweet Little Lies</em>, the follow up to her debut novel <em>L.A. Candy</em>, at the Borders bookstore in Tribeca. The <em>L.A. Candy</em> series, loosely based on her reality TV life, is now in talks of becoming a feature film. We&#8217;re not sure which we&#8217;re more intrigued by, the aforementioned flux capacitor, or the technology that enables the functionally illiterate to write books. Meanwhile, Heidi stays losing. </BLOCKQUOTE><br />

• Earlier this week, Australian banker David Kiely was <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/02/02/macquarie-banker-caught-w_n_445860.html" target="_blank">caught perving</a> on Miranda Kerr&#8217;s GQ photos on his computer during a televised interview with a fellow analyst. In his defense, Kiely claims that he just happened to open an e-mail containing the photos and that it had been a set-up, citing the message, &#8220;turn around now,&#8221; at the end. Of course, the video is blasting on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1m8a4Jl4ZI" target="_blank">YouTube</a> and the shamed bank is currently debating the future of their employee.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Beyonce-Gallery-Lead.jpg" alt="Beyonce-Gallery-Lead" title="Beyonce-Gallery-Lead" width="625" height="520" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-90991" /></a><br />
Yes, <strong>Beyoncé</strong> was always hot. Maybe not as hot as she is now, but in 2003 we got on the Bey-train early and put her on the cover of our April/May 2003 issue. That year, the now Mrs. Knowles-Carter released her debut solo album <em>Dangerously in Love</em>, featuring the smash single &#8220;Crazy In Love&#8221; with Jay-Z. The album went on to sell 317,000 copies in its first week and ended up going 4x platinum. Now, seven years later, BK is still on top, recently taking home a record-breaking six Grammy wins and launching her new perfume, so we thought it was the perfect time to resurrect her Complex Cover Shoot from 2003. Click the link below and stay tuned every Thursday where we&#8217;ll feature a new throwback gallery each week.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[From Beyoncé to Marissa Miller, a bunch of ladies were killing the red carpet last night. Cast your vote to decide the #1 stunner.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Beyonce-Rihanna-Lead.jpg" alt="Beyonce-Rihanna-Lead" title="Beyonce-Rihanna-Lead" width="625" height="449" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-89474" /></a><br />
Unless you were one of the five people watching the Pro Bowl last night, we&#8217;re guessing you were tuned into the Grammys last night. Sure, we had some complaints about the awards and were disappointed they gave away all our favorite categories before the show aired (<a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2010/02/01/complex-grammy-redux-who-should-have-won/">click here to see our guide on who <em>should</em> have won</a>), but there was one saving grace from last night&#8217;s award show: the ladies.  </p>
<p>We&#8217;re not going to pretend we gave a shit about what designer the girls were wearing (we&#8217;ll leave that to <a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_g8-vWvrv3rU/R7tgywjnp8I/AAAAAAAAAZI/HnngtTNhJZA/s640/Jay%20Manuel.jpg" target="_blank">this guy</a>), but we did care how hot the women looked. From former Complex cover stars like <a href="http://www.complex.com/GIRLS/Galleries/KATY-PERRY">Katy Perry</a>, <a href="http://www.complex.com/GIRLS/Galleries/KERI-HILSON">Keri Hilson</a>, and <a href="http://www.complex.com/GIRLS/Galleries/OLIVIA-MUNN-HALLOWEEN">Olivia Munn</a></a> to reliable stunners like <strong>Heidi Klum</strong>, <strong>Ciara</strong>,<strong>Carrie Underwood </strong> and <strong>Beyoncé</strong>, the red carpet got a lot of action last night. If you&#8217;re calling for the fashion police, you&#8217;re in the wrong spot, but if you&#8217;re looking to simply eye-ball the hottest chicks from last night and vote on &#8216;em, we got you covered. Keep reading to see the girls, then <strong>cast your vote</strong> on who was last night&#8217;s finest&#8230; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/complexgrammyrecap_lead2.jpg"/><br />
It goes without saying that the <strong>Grammy Awards</strong> are by and large complete bullshit—the outdated awards show is <a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/02/09/a-history-of-grammy-album-of-the-year-injustices/">notorious</a> for giving their most important trophies to artists decades after they&#8217;ve made their most important music. Still, a big win can be a career-changer, even if they only get it right maybe once every 10 years—Michael Jackson in ’84, Lauryn Hill ’99, Stevie Wonder in ’74 and ’77. But truthfully, we haven&#8217;t really been feeling the Grammys since OutKast cleaned up in ’04.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, this year was pretty par for the Grammys&#8217; clueless course. A few winners were justified, but as usual, we had some major complaints. If you want to see the music we really listened to last year, check out our <a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/12/28/complexs-best-of-2009-the-top-25-albums/">Top 25 Albums of 2009</a>. But if you want to see our attempt to salvage last night&#8217;s ceremony into a semi-credible celebration of modern music, then check out <strong>The Complex Grammy Redux&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-89232"></span><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_album.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>ALBUM OF THE YEAR</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Beyoncé <em>I Am&#8230; Sasha Fierce</em>, Black Eyed Peas <em>The E.N.D.</em>, Lady Gaga <em>The Fame</em>, Dave Matthews Band <em>Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King</em>, Taylor Swift <em>Fearless</em></font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Taylor Swift <em>Fearless</em><br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Beyoncé <em>I Am&#8230; Sasha Fierce</em><br />
&bull; We&#8217;re trying to rock with you, Grammy committee, but this nominee list was one huge modiocrity contest. Please read our <a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/12/28/complexs-best-of-2009-the-top-25-albums/">Top 25 Albums of 2009</a> list and choose one. Any one! We needed ’Ye at the ceremony to keep it real&#8230;not that B&#8217;s album was great, but at least she had one of the GREATEST VIDEOS OF ALL TIME.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_record.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>RECORD OF THE YEAR</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Beyoncé &#8220;Halo,&#8221; Black Eyed Peas &#8220;I Gotta Feeling,&#8221; Lady Gaga &#8220;Poker Face,&#8221; Kings of Leon &#8220;Use Somebody,&#8221; Taylor Swift &#8220;You Belong With Me&#8221;</font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Kings of Leon &#8220;Use Somebody&#8221;<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Lady Gaga &#8220;Poker Face&#8221;<br />
&bull; Come on son&#8230;Love it or hate it, &#8220;Poker Face&#8221; was everywhere this past year. <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/30/cartman-sings-poker-face_n_339909.html" target="_blank">Cartman sang it</a>, <a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/07/21/wake-n-watch-kid-cudi-f-kanye-west-common-make-her-say/">Cudi remade it</a>, and you bumped it on the low in the headphones for a weeks straight. Kings Of Leon are cool, but that sappy-ass power-ballad is not fucking with Gaga&#8217;s ’09 dominance.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_song2.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>SONG OF THE YEAR</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Lady Gaga &#8220;Poker Face,&#8221; Maxwell &#8220;Pretty Wings,&#8221; Beyoncé &#8220;Single Ladies,&#8221; Kings of Leon &#8220;Use Somebody,&#8221; Taylor Swift &#8220;You Belong With Me&#8221;</font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Beyoncé &#8220;Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)&#8221;<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Beyoncé &#8220;Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)&#8221;<br />
&bull; The-Dream&#8217;s album <em>Love Vs. Money</em> might have been snubbed, but at least he got to accept this songwriter&#8217;s award on Beyoncé&#8217;s behalf, along with co-writers Tricky Stewart and Kuk Harrell. This is the rare Grammy that we actually agree with. Radio Killaaaaa!</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_newartist.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>BEST NEW ARTIST</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Zac Brown Band, Keri Hilson, MGMT, Silversun Pickups, The Ting Tings</font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Zac Brown Band<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> MGMT or Keri Hilson<br />
&bull; Sure, some icons like Mariah Carey and Sade have won this award, but they usually give it to a flash-in-the-pan Grammy infatuation like Arrested Development or Paula Cole. Complex favorites Keri Hilson and MGMT should probably be happy they didn&#8217;t win this one.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_rapalbum.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>BEST RAP ALBUM</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Common <em>Universal Mind Control</em>, Eminem <em>Relapse</em>, Flo Rida <em>R.O.O.T.S.</em>, Mos Def <em>The Ecstatic</em>, Q-Tip <em>The Renaissance</em></font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Eminem <em>Relapse</em><br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Eminem <em>Relapse</em><br />
&bull; Granted, <em>Relapse</em> had it&#8217;s flaws, and there were definitely better rap albums released last year. But out of the exceptionally out-of-touch nominees in this category (Flo-Rida??), we gotta give it to Em. Plus any time he gets a Grammy we&#8217;re happy—remember the year when they gave Album of the Year to Steely Dan instead of <em>The Marshall Mathers LP</em>? Travesty.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_alternative.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>BEST ALTERNATIVE MUSIC ALBUM</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: David Byrne &#038; Brian Eno <em>Everything That Happens Will Happen Today</em>, Death Cab For Cutie <em>The Open Door EP</em>, Depeche Mode <em>Sounds of the Universe</em>, Phoenix <em>Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix</em>, Yeah Yeah Yeahs <em>It&#8217;s Blitz!</em></font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Phoenix <em>Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix</em><br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Phoenix <em>Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix</em><br />
&bull; Another smart choice from the Grammys! We&#8217;re still not sure what the difference between the &#8220;alternative&#8221; and &#8220;rock&#8221; category is, except for the fact that &#8220;rock&#8221; is completely dominated by irrelevant old men and &#8220;alternative&#8221; is music we actually listen to. Perhaps it&#8217;s time to revisit these labels that didn&#8217;t even make sense in the ’90s?</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_rapsong.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>BEST RAP SONG</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Drake &#8220;Best I Ever Had,&#8221; Kid Cudi &#8220;Day &#8216;N&#8217; Nite,&#8221; T.I. &#038; Justin Timberlake &#8220;Dead and Gone,&#8221; Jay-Z &#8220;D.O.A. (Death Of Auto-Tune),&#8221; Jay-Z, Rihanna &#038; Kanye West &#8220;Run This Town&#8221;</font><br />
<strong>WINNER: </strong>Jay-Z, Rihanna &#038; Kanye West &#8220;Run This Town&#8221;<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Drake &#8220;Best I Ever Had&#8221;<br />
&bull; Hov is the G.O.A.T. and Kanye killed it on &#8220;Run This Town,&#8221; but you gotta give it up to Drizzy for his omnipresent summer jam that hit #2 on the pop charts and had both girls and dudes singing along. Don&#8217;t front, &#8220;Best I Ever Had&#8221; was the best rap song of ’09.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_solorap.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>BEST RAP SOLO PERFORMANCE</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Drake &#8220;Best I Ever Had,&#8221; Eminem &#8220;Beautiful,&#8221; Jay-Z &#8220;D.O.A. (Death Of Auto-Tune),&#8221; Kid Cudi &#8220;Day &#8216;N&#8217; Nite,&#8221; Mos Def &#8220;Casa Bey&#8221;</font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Jay-Z &#8220;D.O.A. (Death Of Auto-Tune)&#8221;<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Jay-Z &#8220;D.O.A. (Death Of Auto-Tune)&#8221;<br />
&bull; Here&#8217;s one we&#8217;re glad Hov won—we&#8217;ll take his thumping luddite anthem over the &#8220;Run This Town&#8221; any day. When it comes to actual &#8220;rap performance,&#8221; Jay is still the God MC.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_rapduogroup.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>BEST RAP PERFORMANCE BY A DUO/GROUP</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Beastie Boys &#038; Nas &#8220;Too Many Rappers,&#8221; Eminem, Dr. Dre &#038; 50 Cent &#8220;Crack A Bottle,&#8221; Fabolous &#038; Jay-Z &#8220;Money Goes, Honey Stay,&#8221; Kid Cudi, Kanye West &#038; Common &#8220;Make Her Say,&#8221; Kanye West &#038; Young Jeezy &#8220;Amazing&#8221;</font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Eminem, Dr. Dre &#038; 50 Cent &#8220;Crack A Bottle&#8221;<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Kanye West &#038; Young Jeezy &#8220;Amazing&#8221;<br />
&bull; He was definitely snubbed, but Kanye&#8217;s sole nomination from <em>808s &#038; Heartbreak</em> was well-deserved—&#8221;Amazing&#8221; is one of the experimental album&#8217;s most assuredly dope moments. Em&#8217;s drunk-driving anthem is fun, but definitely less memorable.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_rapsung.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>BEST RAP/SUNG COLLABORATION</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: Beyoncé &#038; Kanye West &#8220;Ego,&#8221; The Lonely Island &#038; T-Pain &#8220;I&#8217;m On A Boat,&#8221; Jay-Z, Rihanna &#038; Kanye West &#8220;Run This Town,&#8221; Keri Hilson, Kanye West &#038; Ne-Yo &#8220;Knock You Down,&#8221; T.I. &#038; Justin Timberlake &#8220;Dead and Gone&#8221;</font><br />
<strong>WHO WON:</strong> Jay-Z, Rihanna &#038; Kanye West &#8220;Run This Town&#8221;<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Keri Hilson, Kanye West &#038; Ne-Yo &#8220;Knock You Down&#8221;<br />
&bull; The most awkwardly named award went to the most famous of the three Kanye collabos, but we&#8217;re gonna have to give this one to Keri over Jay. &#8220;Knock You Down&#8221; had something for everybody, and managed to become the rare pop song that never got old.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010grammy_producer.jpg"/><br />
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><font size="3"><strong>PRODUCER OF THE YEAR, NON CLASSICAL</strong></font></span><br />
<font size="1">Nominees: T Bone Burnett, Ethan Johns, Larry Klein, Greg Kurstin, Brendan O&#8217;Brien</font><br />
<strong>WINNER:</strong> Brendan O&#8217;Brien<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Brendan O&#8217;Brien<br />
&bull; We would have preferred to give this award to a producer at their peak like Kanye or Tricky Stewart, but out of these nominees, rock O.G. Brendan O&#8217;Brein held it down this year with his work on Mastodon&#8217;s <em>Crack The Skye</em> and AC/DC&#8217;s <em>Black Ice</em>.</p>

<strong>WINNER:</strong> The Black Eyed Peas &#8220;Boom Boom Pow&#8221;<br />
<strong>WHO SHOULD HAVE WON:</strong> Beyoncé &#8220;Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)&#8221;<br />

The highly-anticipated showdown between the <strong>Texas Longhorns</strong> and <strong>Alabama Crimson Tide</strong> for the <strong>BCS Bowl Championship</strong>—the Holy Grail of college football—finally goes down tomorrow night. With each team being undefeated in their divisions, the game promises to be eventful. </p>
<p>But before you start choosing sides, we&#8217;re putting both the hottest Texas girls and hottest Alabama girls on the field for our own version of powder puff football. We&#8217;re even comparing their respective cheerleading squads to decide which state wins. And unlike tomorrow&#8217;s game, <em>you</em> determine the champion. Click through the girls and then vote at the end to decide which state has the hotter girls&#8230;</p>

<blockquote><p><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"><strong>Jessica Simpson (Dallas, Texas) vs. Shelby Lynne (Frankville, Alabama) </strong></span><br />
• Both blonde, both singers, Jessica Simpson wears &#8220;mom jeans&#8221;, Shelby has a song called &#8220;Mother&#8221;, see why we put these two together? You&#8217;re probably more familiar with Jessica&#8217;s body of work, but Shelby is no slouch, scoring a grammy for &#8216;Best New Artist&#8217; back in 1999. But this is all about looks, and J. Simpson still holds the title, and we have <a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/05/08/the-ultimate-archive-jessica-simpsons-hottest-pics/">25+ pics to prove it</a>.<br />
<em><strong>Advantage: Texas</strong></em></p></blockquote>

<p>Merry almost Christmas! Compared to the <a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/12/16/worldwide-wednesday-the-15-hottest-jewish-women/">Hottest Jewish Girls</a> list we gave you last week, these Christian girls are noticeably more&#8230;eclectic. We can&#8217;t think of another instance where we&#8217;d put <strong>Heidi Montag</strong> and <strong>Beyonce</strong> on the same list, actually. But it is the season of miracles, so anything is possible, right?</p>
<p>Although we had some great contenders for the crown of the &#8220;Hottest Christian Girl,&#8221; many DQed after a) bashing their faith or b) forgetting they had one. We&#8217;re looking at you, Lady Gaga. Anyway, we decided to make like Santa and make our own list, check it twice, and have you click through the 12 hottest Christian Women&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-81763"></span><a href="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/jennifer-garner.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/jennifer-garner.jpg" alt="jennifer-garner" title="jennifer-garner" width="625" height="500" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-81898" /></a><br />
<strong><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">#12. Jennifer Garner</strong></span><br />
<strong><em>Christrian cred:</em></strong> Lately, everytime we hear about Mrs. Ben Affleck, it&#8217;s about her being Mrs. Ben Affleck. So, it&#8217;s no surprise that the papz even report the most obscure events in her life &#8211; such as the baptism of her daughter at a Methodist church in West Virginia. Well, thank God for them! How else could we have obtained such a necessary, life-changing piece of information?</p>

<p>Don&#8217;t let the fact that <strong>Kanye West</strong> has been laying low lately fool you into thinking that crowds don&#8217;t go crazy for him anymore. British concertgoers had already packed London&#8217;s famous O2 Arena to see <strong>Beyoncé</strong> perform and lucked out when a couple more superstars showed up. <strong>Hov</strong> came through to support his wifey, and Kanye hit the stage to spit his verse from thier hit, <strong>&#8220;Ego.&#8221;</strong> The festivities went down a few nights ago, but quality footage is just now hitting the web. Watch Ye&#8217;s cameo above.</p>

<p>No lengthy introduction is necessary when talking about <strong><a href="http://best.complex.com/2000s/Top-100-Girls/beyonce" target="_blank">Beyonce</a></strong> and <strong>Lady Gaga</strong>. Two women with a daring sense of fashion. Two women who sell more records than your favorite rapper. Two women who <strong>Kanye West</strong> rides hard for. It was only a matter of time before today&#8217;s reigning queens of pop music worked together on something. That something happens to be a remix of B&#8217;s <strong>&#8220;Video Phone&#8221;</strong> that&#8217;s much more effective as a music video than a song, but generally great nonetheless. Budding female superstars take note: these ladies have raised the bar&#8230;again. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cdn.complex.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/vmagirls2009_leadimage.jpg"/><br />
Along with the typical brouhaha at last night&#8217;s <strong>MTV Video Music Awards</strong> (more on that later!), there were also some hot-as-sin outfits on the red carpet. We&#8217;ve got consistent players like <strong>Beyoncé</strong>, a surprise hottie moment from <strong>Amanda Bynes</strong>, rookie-of-the-year <strong>Amber Rose</strong>, and  a laughable moment that had <strong> Shakira</strong> and <strong>Pink</strong> rockin&#8217; the same Balmain dress. And sorry, fetish fiends: No Lady Gaga this time—too much costume, not enough skin. So who was the hottest female of the night? See our picks for the <strong>10 sexiest VMA women</strong> and cast your vote below&#8230;</p>

After tearing his ACL and limping around for weeks, <strong>Drake</strong> appeared to be back to normal while performing &#8220;Best I Ever Had&#8221; for a sold out audience at one of this weekend&#8217;s <strong>America’s Most Wanted Music Festival</strong> stops.  That is until he made a spin move that caused him to tear another ligament and collapse on stage (<a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/08/03/exclusive-drakes-tour-diary-from-the-night-of-the-fall/">click here to check out our exclusive Drake tour diary from the night in question</a>).</p>
<p>Knowing the severity of his injury, we just hope the kid gets better soon, because while sometimes it&#8217;s funny to laugh at people falling down, this injury could be costly for the young MC. Although he&#8217;s the latest, Drizzy&#8217;s not the first artist to take a spill at a concert, so while we wait for him to recover, check out (and feel free to laugh at) <strong>15 other Memorable Stage Tumbles&#8230;</strong></p>

The highly anticipated video of <strong>LeBron James</strong> getting dunked on leaked Wednesday, despite Nike and LeBron&#8217;s attempts to keep it under wraps. In other weekly pop culture news, the <strong>Erin Andrews </strong> &#8220;<a href="http://www.complex.com/blogs/2009/07/21/caught-on-tape-the-worlds-worst-peeping-toms/">peeping tom</a>&#8221; video also leaked, gaining major exposure thanks to ESPN&#8217;s legal team. In both cases, the corporate push for surpression had the opposite effect, giving the videos the extra publicity they needed to go fully viral. This unintended effect happens so often on the Internet that it has an official name:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>The Streisand Effect</strong> refers to &#8220;an Internet phenomenon where an attempt to censor or remove a piece of information backfires&#8230; [and] instead of being suppressed, the information receives extensive publicity, often being widely mirrored across the Internet, or distributed on file-sharing networks (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a>).&#8221; </p></blockquote>
<p>See you learn a new term everyday. Hit the jump for the Complex&#8217;s history of the Streisand Effect, when censorship failed, and everyone got a look, listen, and feel of the supposedly &#8220;banned&#8221; content&#8230;</p>

<strong><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">2003: The Start. Barbara Streisand sues the California Coastal Records Project</span></strong><br />
• Silly Babs. The Streisand Effect gets its name for Barbara Streisand&#8217;s suit over an image the California Coastal Records Project held on its site. The Coastal Records Project is/was a photographic database of over 12,000 frames of the California coast and the suit asserts that the image that included her Malibu home violated the &#8220;anti-paparazzi&#8221; statute. Thanks to the publicity around the suit, <em>everyone</em> had a look at her house, and a phenomenon was born.<br />

<strong><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">2004: EMI tries to squash the Grey Album</span></strong><br />
• Danger Mouse was a relatively unknown producer until one day he decided to mix up samples from the Beatles <em>White Album</em> under lyrics from Jay-Z&#8217;s<em> Black Album</em>. College students went nuts with it on Napster and the New Yorker reviewed it glowingly. But it wasn&#8217;t until EMI, who owned the rights to the <em>White Album</em>, sent a cease-and-desist letter to Danger Mouse and to stores that were selling the mixtape that the album reached critical mass. This lead to a protest known as Grey Tuesday, where close to 200 websites posted the album for 24 hours as an act of protest. More than 100,000 copies of the album were downloaded, totaling over a million individual tracks. Thanks to EMI, Danger Mouse&#8217;s projected career got a jumpstart, allowing him to go <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-sb6mfR9lQ" target="_blank">crazy</a>.<br />

<strong><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">2006: Daniela Cicarelli tries to stop her sex tape from leaking</span></strong><br />
• Ohhh sex tapes. If you want something to disappear, you shouldn&#8217;t start making a giant iFuss over it. Especially if we&#8217;ve never heard of you. Oh wait, you&#8217;re a super hot Brazillian? Wait, what&#8217;s the link? Daniela Cicarelli lost a GM endorsement contract because of the video, and following the suit, Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered YouTube to find a way to permanently block the intimate video from being uploaded on its servers. Hahahahahaha <a href="http://www.spike.com/video/daniella-cicarellis/2815869" target="_blank">yeah.fucking.right</a>. Silly girl, next time, <a href="http://www.kimksuperstar.com/?nats=KimOrganic.6.3.5.0.0.0.0" target="_blank">make the video yourself</a>.<br />

<strong><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">2007: Beyonce falls down the stairs</span></strong><br />
• This isn&#8217;t the most solid example of the Streisand effect, but the video is too awesome not to re-link. Sony BMG tried to get <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2LHiKk0vRs&#038;feature=related" target="_blank">this video</a> of Beyonce falling down the stairs during a July 2007 concert in Orlando removed, and got the video taken down from a few of the bigger sites, but the Internet doesn&#8217;t let things go away. One could make the case that Sony&#8217;s attempt to get personal videos banned increased the press surrounding it, but Beyonce is such a huge star that this thing was going to be giant in the viral video world anyway.<br />

<strong><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">2008: The Church of Scientology tries to make Tom Cruise seem sane</span></strong><br />
• On January 14, 2008, a Tom Cruise Scientology video leaked of the actor just kind of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFBZ_uAbxS0" target="_blank">talking about Scientology</a>. Whatever, right? Tom Cruise is just a crazy asshole. But then the Church got all freaked out and started taking it down. Of course everyone went, &#8220;Wait, what?&#8221; and then we all watched it again and actually listened, and now we <em>really</em> know that that whole thing is nuts.<br />

<strong><SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">2006-2009: Everyone tries to stop Pirate Bay</span></strong><br />
• In 2006, Entertainment executives were super psyched that they got Pirate Bay shut down, stopping illegal downloads and pirating of content.  Great job guys. For <a href="http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20061101/123127.shtml" target="_blank">three days</a>. The news surrounding the shutdown worked as free advertising for the site. Several countries acted <a href="http://techdirt.com/articles/20080811/0048071938.shtml" target="_blank">similarly</a>, generating news stories and driving traffic to the Swedish website, until the founders were finally arrested this year. Unfortunately for the idiots at giant companies, the site is still up, and these dudes will be selling it for a gabillion dollars this August. Thanks lawyers!<br />
